The Story of True Hope for Mental Illness





My name is Tony Stephan, and this is the story 

of how my family overcame mental illness, after devastating loss.

In 1994 I had been married to my beloved wife Debbie for 23 years. During that time, we lost her father to suicide.  He had struggled with severe depression, and in 1978, fatally overdosed on medications to escape his suffering.  Then, sixteen years later, my beloved wife Debbie succumbed to the same fate . . . suicide.

Debbie had been diagnosed with Bipolar Affective Disorder 1 with Rapid Cycling.  One day she simply ended it.  The pain was unbearable.  It was like somebody took a chalkboard eraser and wiped out the most precious part of my life.


It got worse.  My son Joseph, fifteen years old, and his older sister, Autumn, were diagnosed with the same
illness.  Joseph was getting more violent and dangerous.  He was on 750 to 900 milligrams of Lithium or Carbo-lith per day, and he was just a lost soul.

There was one bright spot in this period, as I was blessed with a wonderful and supportive new wife, Barbara.  Barbara sought assistance for Joseph from a noted psychiatrist.  We went and met, praying for answers and hope.  Instead the Doctor became upset with me and asked Barbara to take Joseph out in the waiting room.  When the door closed it was like a shotgun going off in my face.  This noted psychiatrist said, "Mr. Stephan you need a reality check.  Don't you see it?  What you see is what you've got.  He's not going to get better."

My daughter, Autumn, was in and out of the psychiatric ward constantly.  Drugs didn't work.  Autumn was on five psychiatric med: Haldol, Rivotril, Epival, Ativan and Cogentin; and she was out of control: suicidal one minute, explosive the next - unable to care for herself... or her family.

WAS THERE REALLY AN ANSWER OUT THERE?

I started to pray.  I started to fast.  I started to search.  I started to ask everyone, "Do you know anything about bipolar?"  There just had to be an answer... somewhere!

One day it came.  I was talking to a friend I was working with, and telling him about how bad it was in our family with Joseph's and Autumn's illnesses.  He said that he didn't understand mental conditions, but he explained to me that he had spent twenty years in the agricultural industry.  He said, "You know, I looked after hundreds of thousands of animals, and we used to see this in the hog pens... these animals would have this disorder, sometimes, called Ear-and Tail-Biting Syndrome.  These animals would often become aggressive and hyper-irritable."  My thoughts turned to Joseph and his violent rages.

As my friend told me how the animals become extremely irritable and enraged, and about the explosive behavior, he said, "You know, we learned very quickly from the agricultural literature, the scientific literature, that you could nutrate away the disorder with good nutrition." In that instant I had an epiphany.  A burden was lifted and a sense of peace and light enveloped by mind.  I knew that God has just given me the answer:  Nutrition!

On January 17, 1996, almost two years to the day that my wife had committed suicide, we moved forward and starting loading micronutrients into Joseph.  Within thirty days, my son no longer exhibited any symptoms whatsoever of bipolar disorder.  It was gone!

I remember sitting on the couch with him after six weeks and him saying to me, "Dad! Dad! ... Where was I?  What happened to me?  Why was I so angry?  Why was I so violent?"  And I said, "Joe, it doesn't matter. That was another day. It wasn't you.  It was the disorder."  There wasn't anything that we could do alone to correct the disorder; but the answer came, and I've never looked back -- and neither has Joseph.

My daughter Autumn was next.  Her husband had to work a graveyard shift so he dropped Autumn off at our home for a week as she could not be left alone.  It was then that I placed her on the same nutrient program as Joseph.  Within a few days she became calm... with dramatically fewer mood swings.  She was able to care for herself and her young son.

Within 45 days she was clear of all of her five medications.

Both Autumn and Joseph have been well (as of 2013) for over eighteen years.

Autumn has written a best seller titled, A Promise of Hope, published in 2007 by Harper Collins and available on Amazon.com.

When Autumn and Joseph were made well, many people in the community started to come for help with their loved ones.  After they tried the program and experienced the same results as my children, we started working with university researchers like world-renowned behavioral research scientist from the University of Calgary, Dr. Bonnie J. Kaplan.  Dr. Kaplan's research was published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry in 2001, which is the largest psychiatric journal in the world.  Soon there were other research studies and publications.  The University of Calgary, Harvard University, Ohio State University - Department of Psychiatry, The University of Canterbury, New Zealand, and many others.  There are now over 40 researchers from 15 Universities and 23 medical Journal publications who have studied its effects on disorders like:

  • ADHD
  • Autism
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder
  • Bipolar affective disorder
  • PTSD
  • Addiction
  • Anxiety
  • Stress
  • Depression
It's about restoration. It's about hope...healing...and health.

Millions of bottles have been shared and over 100,000 souls have said, "Thank you" for this product.

I don't know if it will work for you or your loved ones, but it might... that is my true hope.

Try it now.

Science and Charts on Energy Work


DR. WEST'S CHART

I listened to Dr. Kenneth West from South Africa lecture in the fall of 2012 in North Ogden, Utah. He gave me permission to share this power point slide of his publicly. 
“Working with scientists from Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico, it became clear there is a hierarchy of function – the longer the wavelength, the more powerful it is.  The longest wavelength measurable is called the Boson and, … it controls the hierarchy.  Zero Point is at the top of the pyramid and the Boson creates the descending order of power all the way down to the structural level.  
This illustrates why therapies using the waves higher up the pyramid (like energy work, prayer, sound healing) so often produce results superior to those at the bottom of the pyramid, where surgery and biochemical therapies reside.  It is also interesting that the further down the pyramid you go, the greater the risk to the patient, the higher the cost and the more irreversible the changes.” (Dr. Kenneth West, “Stress Addiction,” Odyssey,  Issue 2  2012, p 44)
I believe Dr. West explained that the techniques listed above the bottom level are examples of using  the wavelengths in bold.  The "Hierarchy of Function," portrayed in the pyramid above, summarizes some points in my book, Healing Arts - A Gift from God.


VIDEO -  SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH OF ENERGY HEALING

Dr. William Tiller, Professor Emeritus, Stanford University is the author of eight books and 250 scientific papers. He explains, “We now know that the body heals through frequency, vibration and resonance and it’s communicated through light.” 

Here is a very short video of Dr. William Tiller, talking about the scientific research he has done 5 times on the healing modality Reconnective Healing by Dr Eric Pearl. Dr. Tiller mentions developing a device to measure the energy of the space where a workshop was held and how the energy measurably changed - quite drastically, in fact.



Dr. Tiller said, "It isn't an energy effect. It is an entropy effect. Information is being exchanged. Information is being created. When information is being created, entropy decreases...In the process of the Eric Pearl Reconnection (Reconnective) Healing, people are building infrastructure into themselves. Therefore information is growing in the universe. Which means the thermodynamic entropy is decreasing. Which means that nature is restoring itself...It heals the space. It heals our world." 

 (You can read about this research. "An Experimental Investigation of Some Reconnective-Healing Workshops via a Unique Subtle Energy Detector" is on White Paper XI by  William A. Tiller, Ph.D. and Walter E. Dibble, Jr., Ph.D.)


A SIMILAR CHART

 A similar chart to the one above that I've titled 5 Levels of Healing by Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt is found below (and simplified in my first book on slide # 467. Both charts are in my second book).



Quoting Dr. Klinghardt, one author says:
"Health and illness are a reflection of the state of these 5 levels. ... Any health problem can originate on any of the 5 levels.... An imbalance on one level, if left untreated, spreads upward or downward to the other levels.... Unless upper level imbalances are addressed, restoring balance at the lower levels will not produce long-lasting effects.... Therapeutic intervention at the lower levels has a very slow, and little penetrating effect upwards.... But if you do an intervention on the 3rd or 4th level, it can correct the [block] on the 2nd level immediately, within seconds or minutes, [Dr. Klinghardt] notes." (Stephanie Marohn, The Natural Medicine Guide to Bipolar Disorder, 59-60, 72, emphasis added)
Simply put, that sums up what a number of energy work modalities are doing! I believe these processes involve a sacred light, sound, and breath. The field of energy work often involves breathing techniques, unseen light in and around the body and various forms of sound waves.  These underlying principles are spoken of in terms the world uses as well as by religious terms. My book Healing Arts - A Gift from God points out that Zero Point Energy, listed at the top of the pyramid above, is related to intelligence in the light of Christ which mentions other scriptural terms for sacred light, sound and breath. Interestingly, cutting edge scientists have found that healing involves vibration, frequency and resonance -- all communicated through light!

What a blessing that Dr. Klinghardt is world renowned for helping autistic patients as well as Lyme patients in his medical practice. I am deeply grateful for this pioneer who teaches other medical doctors his form of applied kinesiology muscle testing as well as how to release unresolved trauma from generations past and other energy healing techniques. 
"Dr. Klinghardt estimates that about 70% of mental disorders across the board go back to systemic family issues that need to be treated. People try to treat them psychologically, on the 3rd level and it cannot work.  This is not the right level.  Similarly, focusing on the biochemistry is not going to fix the problem when the source is at the 4th level." (Stephanie Marohn, The Natural Medicine Guide to Bipolar Disorder, 70)  
 The 4th level is where systemic family issues or generational problems reside. Clearing generational issues is an area that energy work addresses. What a difference this makes for people!
"Unresolved trauma does not appear to go away with death, but plays out in a variety of ways in later generations.  Often, unresolved trauma from previous generations becomes the source, and the causative event of illness is later generations.... Most people overlook this and can never help their patients.  I use this work for all autistic children that come to my practice.... When we resolve issues in the family history there is often magical improvement in these children. By healing the trauma of the past these children are healed in the present." (Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D., "The 5 Levels of Healing" video, www.mercola.com, Tamara Laing's transcribed notes)  
These and other quotes and scriptures on the subject of generational healing as well as religious validation for many underlying principles of energy healing are mentioned in my first book but delved into in my second book. Some of these quotes are in my DVD "What Else Is There?"  Like Dr. Klinghardt, and a host of facilitators of energy work, we attest that changes in health and behavior can happen quickly today -- just like they did when facilitated by mortals in Bible times. Believing in these techniques is not a requirement for them to work, only a willingness to try is.  Belief, however, adds even more to one's results. Faith is a literal power as "Thought" near the top of Dr. West's pyramid attests!

Another professional paper has a chart on 6 strengths that the field of Energy Medicine has. It is described here:

The current status of energy medicine and its increasing challenge to the biochemical paradigm that has dominated conventional medicine are reviewed. While energy medicine represents only a small fraction of one percent of the 2.2 trillion dollar health care industry, six properties of energy medicine give it strengths that could augment conventional health care models. 
These include the ways energy medicine  
1) can address biological processes at their energetic foundations (reach), 
 2) regulates biological processes with precision, speed, and flexibility (efficiency),  
3) fosters healing and prevents illness with interventions that can be readily, economically, and non-invasively applied (practicality),  
4) includes methods that can be utilized on an at-home, self-help basis, fostering a stronger patient and practitioner partnership in the healing process (patient empowerment),  
5) adopts non-linear concepts consistent with distant healing, the healing impact of prayer, and the role of intention in healing (quantum compatibility), and  
6) strengthens the integration of body, mind, and spirit, leading not only to a focus on healing, but to achieving greater well-being, peace, and passion for life (holistic orientation).”

Rapid Eye Technology (RET) explained by the founder



Rapid Eye Technology by Ranae Johnson:

Let’s assume that your family of origin had some unresolved issues (don’t they all?). Within that family dynamic, you may have gotten the message "you’re not good enough" or "you have to take care of me." So you go through life feeling that, indeed, you really aren’t good enough, or that, in order to be loved, you have to take care of everyone else’s needs. Once you’ve taken on this huge burden, it can lead to your own addictive process, co-dependency, or just plain burnout. Such dynamics are generally accepted as part of the human condition. We may even recognize how our own life is compromised by such dynamics, yet find it difficult to break the patterns.

My own experience has taught me that to live our lives and make our decisions free from such negative conditioning requires education and new skills. I have dedicated my personal and professional life to this process. Rapid Eye Technology was developed over a period of 30 years and is a combination of inspired information and deep study. I began using parts of this method with my autistic son and with other individuals who were not being adequately served by the established medical community. I had some stunning results. For instance, my son is now an adult living in his own apartment. He holds down a job and is living a fairly normal life. This is quite amazing when you consider the usual alternative for an autistic person.

Rapid Eye Technology releases emotional stress and provides education and skills for increasing quality of life. RET is a process that uses eye movement. The rapid eye process simulates rapid eye movement with an eye-directing device moving in a neural-linguistic pattern in front of the person’s eyes. This stimulates various sensory data. (For instance, when we look up, we’re accessing memory; when we look down, we’re accessing feelings.) We go into these various places with this pattern to find the source of the stress. As the person blinks, information stored in the body is accessed and released. The eye-directing device helps to access different parts of the mind, such as auditory, emotional, and visual memories. It also helps the right and left hemispheres of the brain work together to process the problem and to release the stress and trapped trauma.

 Rapid Eye Technology is used for all types of stress-related conditions. The wonderful thing about RET is that it’s a short term therapy program, and it’s safe. Many people ask, is there a danger of releasing too rapidly? In my experience, the answer is no. We all have excellent survival systems. We developed these systems in order to protect ourselves, and our psyche will only allow us to release old trapped trauma as fast as we are able to assimilate the changes. Most people release trauma in layers.

Rapid Eye is a holistic model. First, we do a quick review of the person’s medical, psychological, and family history. Then we introduce a neurological integration exercise that begins brain access to stored preverbal memory. This integration allows the client to process, more naturally, all emotions–past, present and future. From there, we facilitate the process of exploring/releasing negative core beliefs through the use of various aids. In all of this, we create a very nurturing and safe place for processing. The miracle of Rapid Eye Technology is that a person does not have to relive every traumatic event in order to release the attendant stress. Clients are conscious and always have control in their sessions. Technicians are well-trained and are there not to control but to facilitate. We do not diagnose, prescribe, or advise.

We begin by seeing the client whole and healed (the master plan). We hold them in that space during their session. The body (through RET and Life Skills) soon catches up to that place of being whole and healed. We always end each session with positive reframes. Whatever is released is replaced with positive information. Other techniques are used during personalized sessions to address the issue of falling back into old patterns.

We also offer free classes on Life Skills, which is the cognitive portion of Rapid Eye Technology. These classes help the client practice and anchor new techniques rather than reverting to the "same old stuff." With Rapid Eye, the individual is able to make his or her own connections between the trauma and the subsequent events in life. For example, we have worked with people who reported they were rape or incest victims. We have seen them move from self-hatred and self-degradation to loving themselves and making positive choices. We have also worked with individuals who felt trapped in their lives in other ways. After one or two sessions they have been able to create dramatically positive situations for themselves. Others who were severely ill have become healthy and functional after releasing their emotional stress. Still other individuals have reported cessation of panic attacks, combativeness and the whole realm of self-defeating behaviors to which we are prone.

 I know there’s a lot of people who say, "Well, I don’t really believe in these ‘miraculous’ quick healing things." In many cases, I agree. The journey for some people is longer than for others. But seeing what Rapid Eye Technology has done for people over the last 15 years is phenomenal. Bottom line, it is working to change. For me, the biggest "miracle" happens when a client goes home, able to move through life with grace and joy. They see the connection between their actions and what happens. Just getting through the day loving yourself and loving the world is the miracle many would choose for their lives if they could. RET can help that to happen.
