"Slept 4 of 7 nights This huge for us. His teachers have been raving about his progress this week" "Denis definitely seems more attuned to the world. Also his eating and nystigmus problems have improved noticeably." "mild improvement in attention , seeming more aware of his surroundings. Drooling has much improved, and he seems to be able to cough up the mucous. We definitely want to continue w/ program." "Sleeping thru w/ 8 hrs of sleep. Stimminess improving even more. Improvement in energy/endurance. We're really excited about these improvements!" email on the orthomolecular@yahoogroups: In addition to the good advice given so far...I recommend getting a copy of Dr. Bates Insomnia CD. From my own experience...it is amazing what decent sleep will do for you. Even a few restless nights cause daytime problems of all sorts. Since I started using the CD, about 5 months ago, many "daytime" problems, like anxiety...have evaporated. I have a deep feeling of calmness all day long. You won't get this with any "sleepers", like Ambien. It's risk free: Do it for 60 days, and if you do not get good results, the Doc will refund your money. I'm not on his payroll in anyway...I'm just a very satisfied consumer, who wishes that Dr. Bate had developed this about 35 years ago.
My best, A recent testimonial is as follows: Hello Dr. Bate, I have been using our subliminal training CD for a couple of weeks now and I just wanted to touch base with you. I have noticed I am having a better start to my day as I am finding I am more naturally gravitating to making sure my routines are in place. The end of the school year/beginning of summer is a chaotic time so I do not want to say too much . . . but so far, so good! The overlay sound of water running is itself so relaxing that I find I look forward to turning on the CD every night. And I am sleeping so well. I especially wanted to thank you for all the gifts that you included in the package. What nice surprises! Thank you As soon as I saw all the gifts, I had a strong sense that you are truly driven by a desire to help people and that a primary reason you are charging for the Subliminal Training is so that it would have value to the user. The training will only work if the user turns the CD player on! I started using the Subliminal Training for myself (and husband). After our 60 days, I am looking forward to rotating the CD to be used by our 3 sons. Although I will start with our youngest son who has variable attention, I am sure that the CDs will be a bonus to our 2 teenage sons. Although they do not have attention issues, I am sure that the CDs will only help them be their sharpest as they prepare for SATs, etc. Thank you so much for all your work as you continue to help people live fuller lives. I hope you and your wife have a wonderful summer! (name deleted for privacy)
Another recent unsolicited testimonial is as follows: Dear Dr Bate, I am fully sold, satisfied and convinced that your insomnia CD is the most effective sleep aid I've ever used. And I've tried a LOT of things over the last 30 years of insomnia! The effects are more than "just sleep" they include better daytime energy, clearer thinking, less "excitability" and a general feeling of inner calm. Myself and my partner both use it, and both feel the same way. Recently, I had to take a 5 day trip, and I thought we were going to come to blows about who would get the CD! Lol... I want to order more copies to give out as gifts. I can't imagine a better one...it truly will "keep on giving"! Do I understand correctly that I will get a price reduction on additional purchases? Sincerely, A follow-up email from this same person may be found on the "integrative_psychiatry@yahoogroups.com" site with the subject "Re: Sleep issues/Calling Dr. Bate!". His email address is also there for verification of this unsolicited testimonial. The testimonials below are from the last week or so of the "ADHD" test (finished in March 2006). If you want more information, check out Test Comments and Synopsis . That page contains the data from the first two tests in 2004, and this latest ADHD (mostly) test that these comments were taken from. This data shows the improvement that solicited these comments. The following are the actual comments from volunteers (or parents of volunteers) on emails received during the last week of the (primarily ADHD testing), ending the first week of March 2006. Received 2/27/06. R. had a great week this week. It did end a little badly with him having a migrain tonight. He played really hard this weekend and may not have kept up with his eating like he should have. I would recommend this program to anyone that has a child like mine. For three years I had my son on meds to control his impulsivity and focus during school (he was not that much trouble at home). During those three years, my son did not gain wieght, grow taller and had many stomach aliments. Since being off the meds since June 2005, my son has gained 14 pounds and has grown 1 and 1/4 inches. He looks great (no more circles under his eyes) and with the help of this loop he is not receiveing constant notes home regarding his lack of focus or talking out of turn. My son is receiving mostly A's and B's in school and I really think the loop has helped him achieve a nice balance during his school day. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity! The "loop" is the CD "looping" so that it plays all night long. Received 2/27/06. D is doing much better with behavior and impulsivity. He seems to be getting along better with peers. I did just receive his mid-term grades and he has two F's but that is due to incomplete homework assignments. Otherwise he would have A's and B's. I think his study habits are more a pattern of his personal characteristics. We are very grateful to have been a part of this study. I am looking forward to reading the success and comments of other parents' experiences. Keep me posted! Received 2/26/06. M. had a great week. I finally got a note from his teachers saying he is doing better. He wrote his first book report. He got zeros in the past, just didn't like writing for long periods of time. I remember writing so much in school I got a callus on my finger - I guess that won't ever change. It's hard to believe just a short time ago he was struggling. I see him with more self control and confidence. I am very happy we had the opportunity to try this. He won't go to bed without his music,(that's what he calls it)he says it calms him and he sleeps better. It's now a permanent fixture in his room. It's just amazing! I can't thank you enough, for giving my boy back! Received 2/22/06 J seems to be more aware of when he is off task and when he is not. Whereas before, he seemed to have no clue that he was off task and had completely forgotten what he was supposed to be doing. Received 2/22/06 Overall I believe G is in the upswing. Last week he was doing great and I had hoped he would keep it up. This week some of the old habits such as not completing his homework and not studying well and complaning about haveing to do it in the first place. He did start late on showing any improvement so this could be some of the Hawhorne Effect coming on late in the program? I would like to state still that even in the regression he is performing at mostly a C level, much preferred over the D and F level from which he started. I plan on continuing the recordings for several more weeks at least. Received 2/20/06 Fairly calm. Sleeping well but a lot. FEELING the body better. Aches and pains are felt more but are more isolated within an area of a joint rather than general areas (like inner left rotator cuff rather than "shoulder".) This is from father of anADHD boy who used it as well. Received 2/20/06 Sorry we haven't published in a couple of weeks. J is using language better and can converse a little better. He spoke on the phone to a girl for about 20 minutes a few weeks ago. He is still very stimmy, and pretty hyper (but controllable). He is ASD, so we understand it will take more time, but we are wishing we would see more than we are seeing by now. There was a period of 5-6 days early in February when he wasn't exposed to the CD very much, but once it was noticed it was put back on and runs constantly both upstairs and downstairs in our house. He still continues the Methyl-B12 shots with Dr. N, and is now taking a lot of vitamins and supplements to assist the shots. Received 2/20/06 M had a great week. We have a dry erase board on our refigerator, he started leaving notes before bed of the things he would like to do the next day. I thought it was cute. His older siblings write notes to remind us of things. There was a time not long ago, he didn't like to write. Him writing little notes, just makes you warm inside. He's getting along with his new specials teacher. He mentioned he likes her better than the last. I see him very happy when he arrives home from school. He is more eager to go to school as well. At home he is more social these days with the family. Will actually sit and watch a movie with us. Received 2/20/06 Dr. Bate, your main focus is on AHDD children, which I appreciate. So I feel like the "Odd Person." I mainly entered your program in the hopes of lessening my many enviromental, food, and chemical "allergies." I got your first tape, so I have been listening for some time. And I am so happy with the results I am seeing. My allergies have not really lessened, but the reactions are definitely shorter and somewhat less severe. But the main thing I am so happy about is I had what appear to be several slight strokes. I am 72 years old. The first one I dragged my left foot, stumbled up steps, bumped into doorways, spilled ,droped things, ect. This lasted for many months, untill I listened to your first tape. The second one my speech was slurry, I was unable to write, (no problems gripping, just could not form words). My third one I leaned to the left side, and had to continuity straighten myself up. All of these symptoms have totally healed, and I give your subliminals all the credit. I am so very grateful. I listen all night and as much during the day as I can. And I will continue to listen to them. Thank you so much. SP Received 2/20/06 Very good week. Less emotional. Calmer. Decreasing his medications. Seems happier. More content. yeah!! These are only one week's worth, at the end of the test. It was noticeable that during the last 4 weeks of the 8 week test that the improvement was greater than the first 4 weeks. The longer you play the subliminal, the better becomes the improvement. The ones below are from older tests and clients.
From an Australian health professional in 2005: I have tried your Babble CD with two of my insomniac clients, with immediately positive results. Both report going back to sleep after waking up to go to the toilet, and sleeping well on the first night. I know the results are not always so immediate, but I have faith in what you are doing. Here is what one of my clients said: "My insomnia was so severe that I was terrified that I might run out of sleeping tablets to control it. I always made sure I had a supply on hand at least a week in advance. And even so I would awaken really early in the morning. So I was quite willing to try anything when my Feldenkrais practitioner suggested Neuroliminal. Maybe I was lucky, but I overslept the first night! I couldn't believe it - I actually slept in late. For nearly two weeks after that I slept about 10 hours a night, and I still sleep at least 8 hours. There were other changes as well. A few days after I started Neuroliminal Training, I went to take my first cigarette in the morning, and realised I didn't want it. I went to put it in my mouth, and it felt awful. So I stopped smoking then and there. It wasn't hard; I never inhaled deeply anyway. A psychiatrist once told me that I would always be depressed as a consequence of my brain damage, and I have indeed been depressed. So it was extraordinary when I began to feel really happy inside. I was really happy! This happened about a week and a half after I started. Finally, my movement improved. I had made distinct progress through Feldenkrais lessons, but still I had ongoing pain from spasms in my left foot. And for while we had been at a plateau, not making much progress at all. But about the same time that I felt happy I also realised that I could move my left thumb more freely. And then the Feldenkrais lessons began to ‘take’ - I would be pain-free for several days at a time, and as a result of the lessons I could feel my body more fully. My practitioner got really excited about this; he was glad we were making progress again." Personal email- names XX'd out for security Dear Dr. Bate, I don't know for sure if the good news I have to share about my daughter, age 7, is from your mp3 or from the heavy metals chelation, or theraputic listening we are doing. We are using all at the same time. Sorry for being so unscientific. I'm not patient enough for trying one thing at a time. My daughter was dx with Selective Mutism at age 3. She'd mostly overcome the mutism but the underlying anxiety was hanging on a little. School was the most difficult for her. It took her most of last yr to start volunteering once a week in class. I just got a note from her teacher this yr. She's only been back in school for 2 half days last wk and 2 full days this week. Her teacher says "Just wanted to let you know that XXXXX has been doing VERY well...Smiles a lot, gets her work done, volunteers in class. Great Job XXX !! ;)" Something definitely is helping and we are very pleased. At home we've noticed more outgoing behaviour such as singing and dancing. She's even been willing to sing in front of her grandparents, aunt & uncle and cousins. We'll keep playing your mp3 every night. My son, age 10, has also been listening to the mp3 every night. He also had a very good start to his school yr. He said 5th grade is fun. I never thought I'd ever hear him say school was fun! Thanks, Copied from the Orthomolecular@yahoogroups.com bulletin board: The only thing that has ever worked for me is Dr. Phil Bate's subliminal CD/tape and didn't make any other changes - I don't sleep long hours but at least I sleep and am rested. Almost all who have tried his subliminal have had improved sleep. I was, at most, sleeping 2 to 3 hours a nite, now sleep 5 to 7 hours. Email letter direct: Dr. Bates, I have used your subliminal messaging for one month. I am 71 years old. 4 days into listening during the day only, (didn't have my bedroom speaker set up yet. I do now) I suddenly realized I was not spilling things, I was not dropping things, I was not bumping into things, and I was not tripping, always my R. foot that caught. Amazing. That has continued to stay. I am so grateful for that. There seems to be slight improvement in the following, but I will need more time to really evaluate them. Allergies, reactions seem to be slightly shorter Sleep, I have the most problems sleeping when my allergy/sensitivity reactions are the worst. I sleep well when light or no reactions. As the reactions seem to be a bit shorter, sleep comes sooner. I seen to be sleeping more sound since listening to the tape. I will evaluate these better next time. memory: I can figure out what day of the week it is, much easier. I have always had problems with day of the week. I haven't set the fire alarm off, cuz I forgot I put something on the stove. That is a biggie....!!! So I think there is some improvement in short term memory. No problem with my memory of days gone by... dyslexia: always worse when I am having an allergy reaction. Can't say there is any improvement here yet. I'll report again in another 30 days. Another email to Dr. Bate: My results so far...
Saturday morning - May 7th - 95% reduction in hives / only got up once / actually slept until 10:30 that morning. What a JOY!!!
