Anxiety After a Broken Marriage & Bereavement

Ben, 50, had felt extremely anxious for as long as he could remember. It became much worse after his marriage broke up and then his mother died. When he arrived for his first Health Kinesiology™ session, he said he could never get a full night’s sleep because he would have acid reflux, belching and felt as though he was struggling for breath. Panic and anxiety would creep up on him at any time, and he felt that he was constantly worried.

At his first session, BioEnergetic allergies to milk, oats, beef, rice and leeks were identified and he was advised to avoid these until they could be corrected. He was also found to be BioEnergetically allergic to half of the medications his doctor had prescribed (sedatives, anti depressants, antacids). BioEnergy corrections were based around his anxious tendencies and he was asked to wait 3 weeks before the next session. He was also asked to inhale Frankincense oil whenever he felt worried.

Ben said his anxiety improved immediately after this session, but he still found that he woke up some nights unable to breathe. He had an ECG that showed no abnormalities in his heart rhythm.

After two more sessions, Ben said “I feel great!” and he has followed his practitioner’s advice to start meditating. His digestion has benefited from avoiding the BioEnergetic allergic foods, and work is now under way to deal with the allergies, so that he can eat normally again. Ben can’t believe how laid back he feels now and he’s looking forward to a holiday with his new partner. Ben. Yorkshire , UK.

General Well Being

The whole experience has felt that it was meant to happen. I don’t recall feeling too anxious at the prospect of what could be uncovered, and have been aware that my own analytical thinking has not interrupted the HK; I have simply let it happen rather than wonder why or how – and I think this attitude has helped very much.

I feel that I entered a process with some degree of caution, however, and opted for a safe and ‘general well being’ focus initially. I particularly appreciated the way in which Minna Oldfield (UK Practitioner) was there to guide me, and explain as seemed right, but was otherwise a presence, and not an intrusive teacher in any way. What seemed even more amazing was that everything she anticipated, did actually happen – from the calmness to agitation, to the serenity.

I have always been very frightened of the threat of physical violence. This was apparent pretty early in the HK. Very soon after, I was mugged and beaten up. Of course I was scared, but, and this is the only way I can describe it, not as incapacitated by fear as I knew I would have been previously. I have had a similar understanding with a lifelong terror of drowning (though not of water). After an HK session involving this thought and its unlocking. I continue to have the healthy fear of drowning, but no longer have the repeated nightmares about it. Minna also explained a very sound reason about this panic. I choose not to analyse it further – all I know is how I now feel.

After the initial episode of a few sessions I took the plunge and went straight into the reasons why I thought I was stuck and wanted some input into resolution and change. I actually felt as if Minna already knew what I was saying, not from any magical beliefs, but that she’d previously recognised the processes which were blocking my energy. The next few weeks felt tough, both in sessions and outside. I was aware of some ambivalence on my part and some agitation – but we both stuck with it (thanks Minna).

I’ve cried, I’ve felt an inner calm, I’ve felt slightly giddy and I’ve felt an intense anger – all as anticipated. Three months from my last session however and I have retained the inner understanding of who I am. I’m not there yet, but I have the knowledge of where I’m going, which I had lost for a few years. In summary, I remain in awe of the whole process but most thankful too.
