This is so individual. But what tends to be the most common side effects for people when they watch and learn what is within the video trainings is a greater understanding of how their body actually works in times of stress and rest, and for many it gives them an aha moment of “so that’s why that happens!”

Here is a great piece that one past participant shared with me:
“I have always felt there was something wrong with me and could never put a finger on what “it” was until I watched the video. Now that I understand what happened I have much more compassion and acceptance for myself, and for my parents. And I feel so hopeful knowing that this “damage” can be healed through the tools we have learned in this class — orienting, learning how to accept and feel my feelings, and knowing how to expand my system’s capacity to handle/process stress. I truly believe that this has been the missing key for me — I can feel it every fiber of my being.” — Julie. Reiki Master. Madison, WI.

The after effects of the practical lessons and the audio exercises range from greater calm to instant stress relief and more energy and alertness, even a renewed sense of purpose and zest for life.

It really depends on where your starting point is.

Here’s some interesting shifts from another participant:
“After going through Irene’s program I started to crave healthier foods and actually gave up my chip addiction. I used to eat chips every night and now I will have them if I REALLY want them, but for the most part not craving them as much. I also noticed more tone in my muscles which is weird, because I am not doing anything that different in my exercise routine. The other awesome side effect is strengthening my ability to not take on other’s people’s crap.” — Lisa Cheston. Personal Stylist at Style Divine. Vancouver, BC.
