Now For Some Good News

We began on Easter Sunday and continue with this, from Irena, one of our contributors:
Vicky contacted me a couple of years ago regarding a debilitating needle phobia she had suffered from since early childhood. Her goal: “not to let this phobia rule my life!” However, the underlying reason Vicky got in touch was that she and her partner wanted to start a family.
The fear Vicky felt was extremely intense and we had to abandon the process a couple of times. Finally, I decided instead of being confined to my practice room, we would take a little stroll down my country lane, and I would try using
BWRT®(BrainWorking Recursive Therapy) again – while we were walking and chatting in the sunshine. Without the pressure of expectations, Vicky was relaxed and within about 20 minutes she achieved what she came to achieve.
A few months later, Vicky texted me: “I’ve done it, given blood!” It’s always an uplifting moment when your client faces their fear and does it anyway – without a hitch!
Then in June 2020, Vicky recontacted me to announce she was two months pregnant! Also, “could we work on her birthing fears”? Osian was born in January 2021. Irena is featured on our Healthy Mind websites section.
I’ve been busy ‘cleaning up’ the site this week. You’ll notice Health Conditions have been broken down into 11 sections and I’ve begun putting comments at the top of each page of our site, bringing a friendlier feel, rather than a list of information (that’s the aim anyway! Do let me know if it works for you…) sharing things that I’ve used and learned along the way.
Jue found this gem this week too. Now why does she enjoy listening so much? Because is features Gemma Newman aka Plant Power Doctor and the regenerative agriculture advocates behind Kiss the Ground film? Or could it be the soft Aussie tones of Mr Simon Hill? I have no idea – but it really is worth a listen…
A very strange thing happened this week (it’s been quite a week by all accounts): Jue and I were out walking on Easter Saturday and came across a copy of this being offered on a free bookstall by the side of the street. In English. In a little medieval village in SW France.
I’ve been missing my copy (that Jue bought me as a birthday gift) since I swapped it with a medical student from Cambridge University, who was staying with us last summer.
Featured on the site here. I’ll tell you what I swapped it for next time.

I read through this and it feels more like a personal diary entry than a structured article. The story about needle phobia is interesting, but it moves quite quickly into other topics like podcasts and books without much connection between them, so it’s a bit hard to follow the main focus.
Vicky’s journey overcoming needle phobia through BWRT walking sessions rather than a clinical setting beautifully demonstrates how environment profoundly shapes therapeutic breakthroughs. That simple countryside stroll removed expectation pressure entirely and months later, a healthy baby arrived. Truly powerful testimony worth sharing widely.
The part about adapting the therapy session by simply taking a walk down the country lane stood out to me. It is a great reminder that sometimes meaningful breakthroughs happen when people feel relaxed and free from pressure rather than in a traditional setting.
A pleasant and uplifting read with a nice mix of personal stories, health-related experiences, and reflections on wellbeing. The testimonial about overcoming needle phobia is particularly engaging and highlights the effectiveness of therapeutic approaches like BWRT in real-life situations. The informal tone makes it easy to follow, though the post feels a bit scattered between different topics.
This story was both inspiring and uplifting. It’s wonderful to see how effective guidance and persistence helped achieve such a positive outcome. Real-life experiences like this offer hope and encouragement to anyone facing personal challenges.
It is always encouraging to read real life transformation stories like this. From severe fear of needles to eventually giving blood and then pregnancy, it shows how gradual change can build confidence. The mix of therapy, lifestyle and supportive guidance seems to have played a key role in the outcome.
Walking session detail really stands out. Removing the clinical setting and letting the conversation happen naturally in fresh air clearly helped Vicky access a calmer state. BWRT combined with that environmental shift shows how much context shapes therapeutic outcomes beyond just technique alone.
Walking down a country lane instead of staying in a clinical room made all the difference for Vicky. BWRT clearly works differently from traditional therapy by removing that pressure of a formal setting. That text about giving blood, followed months later by a pregnancy announcement, genuinely shows how resolving one deep fear opens doors well beyond the original goal.
I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article. https://www.binance.com/ru-UA/register?ref=JVDCDCK4
