A Glowing Testimonial

November 8, 2006

 

    I want to share with all of you this testimonial that was written by a woman and her elderly mother who recently participated in one of my EIP Workshops. When I first read it, all I could feel was this tremendous love and gratitude welling up inside me, that these extraordinary people took the time and effort to record this life-altering experience, then give us the opportunity to share the story of their wonderful journey. These are two people who have most definitely made a commitment to "taking out the garbage"!

    After taking the first EIP class, my mom and I decided to each do a series of 3 EIP sessions together. That was the best decision we could have made.

   The changes that have occurred in my mom are so dramatic that even casual friends have noticed, make comments that range from "I don't think I have ever seen your mom happy till today"; "Your mother is a very knowledgeable, articulate woman". (This about the lady who would ask to go out with friends then hide in a corner, never say anything, and go home complaining because no one talked to her!) "Wow, what's come over your mom—I almost like her." This was from a friend who would never be in the same room with Mom and didn't believe a change was possible.

   This EIP has also given my mom the courage to start a new life of her own. My dad died 1 ˝ years ago and my mom had to go from not being allowed to do anything without him "telling" her she could think, talk, or make a decision without his approval. (Due to bad health, Mom couldn't drive.) After dad retired, Mom was suddenly "incompetent" to run a household, make a grocery list, cook, etc.. So after his death, at 76 years of age, she had to learn how to step up to the plate and run her own life, starting with learning how to read and pay bills, balance a checkbook, etc..

   Now, she's moved out of the house she'd lived in for over 45 years into a senior citizen apartment, and I'm having to buy her an answering machine!

   Just this week, Mom has started calling me at work in the A.M. and leaving a happy good morning message that includes an I LOVE YOU. So what's so important about this?

    If she would call and I wouldn't answer after she would say my name, she'd always hang up.

And sometimes she'd just hang up—she "didn't like talking" to answering machines.

   After the first of the year, Mom and I are planning on more EIP work to continue our forward progress. Do I recommend EIP sessions? Yes, but please do several close together. It really makes the key difference in your life that you are seeking.

    You don't skimp on others. Why would you treat yourself worse/lower than you would others?
