Historical Timeline 2000 - Present London, UK

In 2000, Master Wang, together with a graduate student from the Academy of Potential Education, founded a natural healing and life education centre established in London.

Below is a small sample of client testimonials from this time. Only first names have been used to protect client confidentiality.

Constantine, Age 28

I got my wife to come here. That is a super result. My wife has a lot of digestive problems and after three or four months of trying to get her to come, she got really desperate. She was physically very, very ill. Right before I brought her here she wanted to go to the emergency room. When I brought her here she could hardly walk.

She stayed for a week and attended daily sessions. My wife is not 100% healed but after that week she was a new person. She just was. And it works. It took her a week to get rid of 10 years worth of vomiting, digestion problems and all the bad things that go along with that.

My wife took a lot of medication. Our cabinet is full of pills. She is very much dependent on pills and all types of medication. She stopped taking medication, which is a bit of a miracle.

She used to take three or four different types of pills on a daily basis. Also, most recently, she went on a few business trips and for the first time she didn't take medication while on a trip. It is pretty unbelievable considering that four weeks ago she was taking medication every day.  It is a phenomenal result.

It was a great relief for her and for us. I think it brought us together.  She feels enormously better although she is not 100% healed. This will take some time. She can definitely feel her stomach and other bodily organs again, which she thought were dead for the past ten years or so.  It has brought us more together as a newly married coupled.

Laura, Age 32

Until a couple of years ago, apart from the odd cold and minor ear infections I had never been ill in my life. By the time I reached my 30th birthday I had developed chronic gastritis, chronic IBS and a year later I started to experience severe attacks of vertigo, which was eventually diagnosed as labyrinthitis, a form of virus that affects the inner ear.

I felt unwell every day. At times the vertigo and the gastritis symptoms would subside but the IBS symptoms were always present. I was put on a very restricted diet, but I was still in pain and I felt constantly bloated and uncomfortable. I stopped socialising and against my wishes I had to give up work. I was a counsellor/social worker and loved my job very much. Due to the stress that I was experiencing with my symptoms my relationship with my partner broke down and he moved out of our flat.

I saw doctors on a weekly basis. I was fortunate enough to have private insurance and was able to see many consultants and specialists. I also saw homeopaths, herbalists, naturopaths and dieticians. I had numerous tests and did physiotherapy for the vertigo, but nothing was really helping.

The gastric symptoms felt as if my stomach was burning away. I could not digest any food due to the IBS and the vertigo attacks were reducing me to a very helpless mood. I felt totally burnt out.

In the back of my mind I knew that I had been very stressed at work. I had not been happy in my relationship (which started a year before I got ill), my diet had been quite poor for a long time and I was overall pushing myself too much.

My feelings of helplessness and anxieties increased. I was eventually referred to a clinical psychologist who put me on anti-depressants. I could not cope with the side effects (increased anxiety) and gave them up. I saw a hypnotherapist who helped me with my anxieties. The sessions gave me some relief but my health was not improving. The more ill I felt, the more desperate I became.

One day I woke up feeling even worse. My vertigo symptoms were really becoming overwhelming and I was crying most of the time. That morning I remembered picking up a leaflet a week earlier, advertising a self-healing course. I rang them up and went along to the course.

They claimed to be able to help me with all my symptoms, through relaxations and life education sessions.

Their work is based on the Chinese understanding of energy and health. I was told that by raising my positive energy level, I would slowly release the negative energy that was blocking my healing.

I did my first healing session and felt very relaxed but nothing more. It was the confidence of the instructors and the testimonies of clients that persuaded me to come back. I knew nothing about energy healing but I felt so desperate for a solution that I decided to give it a try.

I have now been coming to the centre on a daily basis for 4 months. After two months of healing and relaxation sessions all my symptoms of IBS disappeared and slowly but surely my gastritis symptoms diminished. I still have vertigo but I am lot less fearful of the symptoms. I am now able to go swimming three times a week and I socialise at the weekend (day-time). I started to do some physiotherapy for the vertigo again (I had to stop physiotherapy since it used to worsen my symptoms and increased my anxiety).

My depression has lifted and my feelings of anxieties have dramatically reduced. I have not fully recovered but I feel on the way to recovery. I do not feel desperate any more. I am no longer crying and I am coping a lot better with every aspect of my life. Instead of feeling as if there was no way out, I am not looking forward to a brighter future. I am hopeful and as a result I feel much stronger.

The process of healing naturally has helped me to recognise the connection between mind and body and how my emotions have had such a big impact on the physical health. I have understood that by healing my emotions I am healing my body.

My experience of healing often feels as if a miracle is taking place.

The instructors have provided me with 100% support every step of the way and have show a great deal of understanding, compassion and patience during difficult times.

Tanner Family, Mother's Interview, Age 39

Question: Why did you start?

Answer:

I came out of curiosity.  My friend and personal trainer suggested that I try it out.

I did notice that I felt more positive and less stressed out.  My husband noticed these changes and that is why he decided to come also.  I also felt calmer about the children.  I felt less irritated and exhausted. I felt more positive generally.I felt consistently less depressed and less inclined to go into spirals of anxiety. 

Question: Why did you bring your daughter along?

Answer:

We came with our daughter initially because we wanted to see if we could do something about her serious and life-threatening nut and sesame allergy. 

By the time she started we already knew that she would have another skin prick test.  I made it clear that we had until the 26 of November; she started coming at the end of October.  By the time she had her skin prick test it came out negative.  We had to wait another six weeks to have the blood test and that was negative too.  So now she is on the waiting list for a nut challenge to see whether or not she can actually eat nuts without getting sick. (Note: the young girl took the nut challenge 9 months later and passed – she is now able to eat any kind of nuts and is allergy free).

Question: What experience did your husband have?

Answer:

My husband has been diagnosed as pretty much infertile and had low sperm count and abnormally shaped sperm.  We conceived our first two children with medical help.  We did that very successfully but it was quite invasive and expensive. 

We thought about and joked about conceiving a third child naturally. We mentioned it as a joke, but we didn't really except to get results.  After about six weeks of mentioning it (in session) we conceived a baby.  That was quite a surprise. 

The pregnancy had been going pretty well compared to the other two, which is partly due to the fact that I do not take hormones this time around.  I had morning sickness all day for months and months with the other two children and until the very end with my youngest child, but now it is almost completely gone, after seventeen weeks. Before I was – afraid of something going wrong, but now I feel ok. I am very grateful for all the benefit my family has experienced here.

Toby, Age 27

Answer: I initially came because I had been unwell for about five years.  I had a lot of problems with my bowels and bladder, with painful urination and very loose bowels.

I saw a doctor about five years ago and she just told me to stop drinking beer and to come back in six months.  This wasn't really the answer I was looking for.  I saw a nutritionist and changed my diet but it didn't have a major effect.  Then I went to see an acupuncturist and started doing yoga and gave up drinking. 

I have been taking a lot drugs for ten years, including cocaine, ecstasy, smoking pot every day and smoking cigarettes as well.  I came across you by doing Yoga as it had opened my mind a lot.  I wanted to cure myself in another way besides going to the doctor.

Question: What happened when you came?

Answer: First Session…

When I first came I felt straight away more content and happy with myself. 

Two Weeks…

And within about two weeks, I found that I had just completely given up smoking, cigarettes and smoking dope, which is something I have been doing for a long time.

One month…

And then I was still going out drinking. I didn't come for a couple of weeks and one night went out drinking and took an ecstasy tablet and I felt terrible again. 

Within about a month I felt no desire to do any drugs or drink any alcohol.  It's been about three months now that I haven't touched any alcohol, smoked any cigarettes or dope, or taken any class A drugs.  I don't feel any desire or need to.  I feel so much happier and so much more content with myself. 

I look at people who smoke now and I wonder why they do that to themselves.  This has been quite a dramatic change in a short period of time.

Question: How has your physical condition changed?

Answer:

My physical condition has improved quite dramatically.  My bowels are much better.  I had liver spots quite badly for about two or three months and they have cleared up. 

I have become much clearer, more focused on what I want to be doing and feeling really content.  Before that I wanted to escape by smoking and taking drugs.  Now I am much more happy and content.
