Testimonials

WE have many testimonials... The theme that runs through most all these testaments is that the BAUD is helpful; however, it is difficult to master/learn. While you could qualify to purchase a BAUD off this website, we strongly urge you engage a professional to help learn how to apply the BAUD.

Hello again,TF
I was so surprised at what happened last night. I have to share my excitement and happiness. I used the BAUD at bedtime and retired at my usual time. In the night I had my normal bathroom break and easily returned to sleep. I awoke at 7AM and went to take my thyroid med and was surprised to find that I had not taken my seroquel and clonazepam before I went to sleep. That has never happened before. If I failed to take my med, I could not sleep. My mind would be so busy and in pain that I would realize that I forgot my med, and would have to get up and take my med. The next day, I would be extra tired and also still agitated. This morning I can feel a small amount of residual agitation, but underneath I feel a sense of calm and peace. This gives me great hope that I might be able to go off my meds totally. I know that I need to work at this gradually and will work with my psychiatrist. It makes me wonder about my bi-polar diagnosis. Was I overwhelmed with my accumulated baggage?

There is another realization I have had. For about a year I have been doing mindfulness meditation. I have used Jon Kabat Zinn's mindfulness meditation CDs. I could obtain deep relaxation and could obtain some relief using them. But after so long, after so many repetitions of the same words, it became harder for me to use them effectively. Also, with all of the activity in my brain, I was not able to achieve a meditative state alone. I find that when I use the BAUD, I achieve the same deep meditative state that gives me the same sense of peace. Using the BAUD allows me to stay in the present as I keep my mind on the emotions of the particular problem I am working on in the forefront of my mind until it disolves on its own. The great advantage I have with the BAUD is that it is always a new fresh experience. It is so deeply personal. I am meditating on my own pain, keeping it in the present. Then I have the technology of the BAUD that erases the pain.

I cannot tell you how much this means to me. About seven years into using lithium, it became toxic and I hit a real crisis. I cannot remember much about it, only what I am told. I became suicidal and was given ECT treatments. Depakote and clonazepam were introduced. They helped some, but not entirely. Later, seroquel was introduced along with the dapakote and clonazepam. It helped more than any medication but eventually I needed more and more to calm my mind. At first, 100 mg calmed my mind. But I eventually needed more and I had worked up to 600 mg. My psychiatrist retired and my new psychiatrist wanted to take down the dose and substitute the depakote with a different med. I worked down to 300 mg seroquel and worked off the depakote. The different new meds we tried did not work. I have been limping along but did not want to up the seroquel again and definitely not go back on depakote. However, I have been suffering. I have not wanted to try new meds as well because it always seems a bumpy road to deal with finding a right dosage and deal with side effects. I have tried so many meds along the way and felt discouraged about trying more. Then, wallah! The BAUD!

I still have had bad days and some days I could not get the BAUD to cover the emotions I had running. But if I continued trying, each day was better. Even on the bad days, I could feel progress and felt hope. There were days that I was free of mental pain! It has been up and down, but the ups are more frequent and the underneath peace has been growing. After 36 years, can you think of what this means to me! Can you think what this means to my family! Can you think of what this means to me as I interact with my family! Can you think what this means to me as I interact with all around me! I cant thank Dr. Lawlis enough. I thank him form the bottom of my heart.
Most sincerely, SM

Subject: BAUD/Bulimia/Incredible Success

I hope you remember me. I was the one looking for a psychologist to help me learn how to use my BAUD. ... I did leave my info on the voicemail at the center, but never got a call back.

But what is so important is for me to convey to you what incredible results I've gotten in regard to my bulimia, and without a "white-knuckle" journey. I truly stopped after my first use of the BAUD, though have had 3 slips in 25 days.

You may know that recovery from this eating disorder has an extremely low success rate, particularly for people who can't afford in-patient care.

I have had very short periods of recovery before, usually after a surgery when it was impossible to binge. I have had this disorder for approximately 19 years.

...But...your Center must get this information out! I am a complete skeptic and was certainly not expecting such an amazing outcome (one day at a time).

Without even consciously trying, my eating habits have also changed dramatically.

I'm not sure if you can include my story in your literature as it is anecdotal, but you must do something! You can avoid alcohol, drugs and cigarettes, but you can't avoid food, and it was a daily torture until now. Self-hatred is still a problem, but I am no longer a slave.

Let me know what you think. If it can work for me, it most likely could work for many, many others. I stop short of calling it "miraculous", but it certainly feels that way.

Subject: BAUD WORKS

BAUD WORKS! I no longer eat as a way to delay making decisions or doing something I don't like to do. This has cut down my between meals food consumption dramatically.

Just in case you are interested, I got different headphones - and they helped a lot, sound is sharper and I found it a lot easier to find the disruptor point, and the place where sound resonates inside of me. The headphones I got are ATH-T22, dynamic stereo headphones, 32 ohms, 3.5mm stereo plug. They also block out outside noises almost completely.

Using the BAUD does take work tho. It isn't as easy as you guys make it sound - but it's a hellva lot easier to acheive the goal this way.

Subject: personal experience with the BAUD

I am a mother of three children under the age of 6. My son has been diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome, but I have been questioning that classification for a long time. We were given the BAUD by a family friend to try on him to see if it would help. And help it has! When he begins to act out, get upset, yell or even show signs of distress, the BAUD helps!

Sometimes it takes less than a minute and he calms down and is able to communicate his needs or problems with us.

I will give you an example. Today we received a phone call from my son's first grade teacher. She stated that he was screaming in the hallway and that he was disrupting the other classes, would not go into the classroom, calm down or tell her what was wrong. We were asked to pick him up from school. Instead of taking him home, we went to school, put the BAUD on him and in less than a minute, he was calm and ready to return to class. He apologized to the teacher and told her what was wrong. Amazing!

We have been using the BAUD on my younger daughter also. She is 5 and has quite a temper, especially in the morning when she has to get ready for school. We put the BAUD on her for 15 minutes every morning and evening and what a difference in this child. She is sweet and funny, and willing and able to communicate with us what is bothering her!

So, Thank you... for your wonderful product.

Just some quick notes: have been using the device just over a month now- sleep with the earphones under my CPAP straps-I have sleep apnea and remove them somewhere around 3 am- usually put them in for another hour if I am awake early-

My ADD is much less intrusive- have been using nano-molar doses of ritalin- 1/16 of a 5mg tab- on a very occasional basis early on- and now haven't used it for over a week--wierdest of all---my acrophobia disappeared- used to be very reticent to climb vertical ladders up roofs and things- not a bit of fear anymore- go figure

We are doing neurotherapy twice a week with Philipe and Liane.On top of that, Liane is doing the gysmo 20 min. when she is in bed. After she does the add solutions Mind and body series to help her go to sleep. The teacher wrote to me that she is surprised lately, she is doing well in her spelling and in her math.Her concentration is increasing and she is not tired during the day.Her self-esteem is higher.And we do the Mind & Body series for the concentretion in the morning for both children.

For Philipe he does the gysmo longer at night . Thusday night he fell asleep with it for 2 hours.When he came back Friday from school he said " Wow! What a great day! Mom every thing went well.There was no fighting with the boys, we all behave, so the teacher was really happy!"

Frank, to tell you the truth, I could go on for hours and hours about the small changes that is going on.My heart is so happy.I do the Mind and body series for parents and my husband to, it helps a lot.We are starting to have fun, I didn't know we could have this much life quality? You would give me the choice of a million and my family being happy. I'd choose my happy family.

Now, I am starting to think about going back to work,after the treatments are all finish. And my husband and I are taking some time alone.We are leaving for a week-end to New York.I am telling you this, because I want to show you how you helped us .It started with Dr. Phil, I saw your Dad on the show. Then I bought the book , then I bought the Mind and Body Series.After I wanted the Baud, and you suggested the neurotherapy.All of this REALLY chanded our lives.

First of all, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing me to participate in your research program regarding ADD and Manic Depression. I am 59 years of age and have suffered my entire life with these conditions without prior knowledge until age 47.

Over the years, I have tried many medications, Biofeedback, therapy, meditation, tinted colored eyeglasses and seminars. To date nothing has given me both relief and concentration while reading as the BAUD Unit.

Realizing that I have only been using the Unit for 5 weeks, I am just now beginning to make it a part of my everyday life. Reading in the evening has become less of a hassle due to the elimination of "mind chatter". I am not as panicky over the little things that must get done. It is hard to describe the neutral effect it is having on my depression.

I look forward to having more history with the Unit. I believe the BAUD Unit is going to help many people, due to the fact that it is simple and easy to use and does not intimidate. I will be happy to continue to share my progress as I improve. If I can be of help or answer any questions, I will be happy to do so.
