HBLU Testimonials
“As President of ACEP, I get to know about the full range of developments and creative applications of energy psychology. Amongst the many talented pioneers, Judith Swack stands out as making a unique and profound contribution. With a background in biological science and many papers in prestigious journals, she brings the fresh and disciplined stance of a true investigator. In her Healing from the Body Level Up [HBLU], Judith asks fundamental questions and ventures into areas where few others are willing to go – discovering and resolving factors that can profoundly limit a person’s freedom to fulfil their potential. She is passionate and steadfast in her work of exploration and healing, dedicated to her mission of passing on her knowledge and skills. Sometimes imitated and copied, contact with Judith will reveal that she is truly the ‘real deal’. She, and her work, are astonishing!”
Phil Mollon, President of ACEP
“Of the many workshops I have attended, none has compared with Judith Swack’s for sheer intellectual excitement, psychotherapeutic innovativeness, and practical effectiveness. This workshop opens new and important territory.”
Nathaniel Branden, Ph.D., psychologist, Author of The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem
“Six weeks after taking the HBLU™ I training, my client load and income doubled without any different marketing effort on my part. I now have a waiting list of people who would like to work with me. Instead of having a handful of ‘breakthrough’, miracle sessions each year, I have that many each day.”
Amy St. Hilaire, LMFT
“My experience at the recent HBLU training was extremely valuable for me. The training prepared and enabled me to begin using HBLU, right away, with my clients. Judith is an excellent teacher who fiercely wants to share her well-earned wisdom and knowledge with her students, in order to empower and equip them to help others and themselves. The model she has developed is brilliant in its efficiency and effectiveness. I have loved working with HBLU and have already received a great deal of positive feedback about the model from my clients. What I have learned from this training has changed the way I view myself as a therapist and healer as well as my vision for my practice. I am so grateful for HBLU and cannot wait to take the next level of training. Thank you, Judith!”
