Kevin’s First Panic Attack

“I didn’t know what was going on and wondered if I was having a series of heart attacks.”

What do you get when you take a guy with a low-stress upbringing from a small town, and move him to a city with a population of 2.5 million, give him a new job that doesn’t have the kindest welcoming committee, get him to drive one of the heaviest vehicles on the road, a 61’ tractor trailer ready-mix concrete truck to make deliveries in all of metro-Vancouver, throw in a new relationship that was a little rocky in the first few months, alone with no friends in the vicinity and a pinch of guilt from moving away from his parents and siblings?

A two week long panic attack that just wouldn’t quit. Lurking in the background were symptoms that ranged from a constant vibrating buzz of the entire body, shallow breathing, ringing in the ears, a constant sensation to urinate while under stress at work and random tunnel vision. I didn’t know what was going on and wondered if I was having a series of heart attacks.

I needed a remedy but didn’t have the tools to alleviate these symptoms. I tried Gary Craig’s EFT, Dr. Alexander Loyde’s Healing Code, deep breathing and meditation. It all helped a little to get me to the next day, but it wasn’t enough. I also visited a psychiatrist that just listened to me talk which didn’t help one iota since he didn’t know how to find the core issue. My now wife Carmella said “I think you should try my guy”.

An energy healing practitioner that used a combination of muscle testing, tapping points on my spine and a magnet to release certain trapped emotions from the body.

I quickly called to make an appointment. I had experienced some muscle testing practitioners in the past but nothing that measured up to the speed and precision of this. It took approximately 10-15 minutes from the time I sat down in his chair for the practitioner to find the sources of the issue and clear it. As he was in the process of clearing it, all at once, I literally felt the weight of this burden lift and disappear in one giant whoosh. Wow, I felt 100 pounds lighter. I left his office and stepped into the hall swinging and pumping my arms horizontally, taking deep breaths, with tears of joy, elated that it was over. I couldn’t believe the effectiveness and speed at which the trapped emotions were found and deleted.

That was the beginning of a 9 year self care journey of consistently scheduled sessions clearing trapped emotions from my past. Hundreds of emotions from abandonment issues from my parents divorce, cords attached to past relationships, past events that were contributing to my confidence level in social situations, blocks in creativity, and much more.

Were all the other clearings as dramatic and profound as the first session for the panic attack? No. But each session chipped away, improved and benefited my overall physical and mental well being, which helped bit by bit with who I’ve become today.
