Post-natal depression, I had suicidal thoughts. And now I am back to myself

Dear Eliezer,

I would like to thank you for your help and devotion.

I suffered from post-natal depression for almost six months. I was, and nervous and angry had suicidal thoughts as well. I also had other, personal problems, but after three treatments with you my condition improved vastly. Now I am able to see life more calmly.

Depression

Working with Eliezer and TAT has turned me from a depressed,drunk,suicidal person into the functioning woman that I thought had died within me.

Words alone cannot describe how painlessly my life turned completely around.

By removing the traumas that I had suppressed for so many years I was able to regain my strength, self respect and faith in myself.

The speed and ease with which I have been able to cope with my family, whose efforts to help me were so destructive to my inner being and had been such a contributing factor to the state that I found myself in is amazing.

Although I am nearly healed I will continue my sessions as this has taught me so much about myself that I want to know more as the peace and strength that this knowledge brings is so rewarding.

From depression back to full life

A few months ago, I began treatment with Eliezer Spetter who uses the TAT technique. The reason I turned to him was because I had felt “stuck” during the last few years without the ability to advance. I didn’t have either the strength or the motivation, I lacked initiative and imagination; I was treading in the same place. Although I did all sorts of things, I was unable to pull myself up. This caused friction at home with my wife who saw me as idle, stuck.

Ever since I began to go to Eliezer Spetter, things began to move forward, a few steps at a time. I began to be brave, initiative, began to look for work, to sign up for studies. I took on myself a project that demanded responsibility, initiative and creativity. Thank G-d, I’m succeeding well. Suddenly I found myself very busy with no time to spare.

I advanced in other fields as well. In one of my tasks, I must give lessons. Standing in front of an audience was quite hard for me; I was pressured by the thought of how people would look at me and judge me. Thank G-d, today I feel freer and more confident to speak in front of an audience without losing my self-identity.

The advantage that I found in this technique is that you don’t have to expose yourself too much; you don’t have to confront your lackings head-on, but rather you leave them behind you in simple, immediate way , a way that is astounding in its simpleness.

I had a number of treatments; I can explicitly say that I saw a significant change in a short period of time that I never saw in any other technique.

a traffic accident, the amputation of both legs

Dear Eliezer,

I started coming to you after a traffic accident that my husband and I were involved in nine months ago. I saw my husband was being seriously injured, and I was miraculously saved. I saw the strongest person I knew (who is also the person who means most to me) literally fall apart in front of me, and I then had to continue to deal with the consequences and a new life.

When I would walk in the street, any truck that was in the area, and it could have been distant, would make me shake uncontrollably and “freeze”; any car journey, slow as it may be, would leave me extremely tense.

I couldn’t really deal with my husband’s injury – the amputation of both legs –, and that was what I really wanted to take care of. It was providence that sent me to you, Eliezer. I must admit that I did not have great expectations for quick results yet I was enormously and pleasantly surprised.

I found a God fearing man who does extremely special work with a technique that seems to be very simple, but changes the world. After each treatment, I would leave rejuvenated and happy. The anxieties dissipated, the fear of trucks disappeared, and I accepted the situation with love; I am now able to continue to deal with what lies ahead with new strengths.

During the treatments, old matters that I had never dealt with came up, and these were dealt with most effectively and quickly.

I tell my story to everyone, wherever I am, and publicize my personal miracle and the Divine Providence that were my lot.

Thank you, Eliezer, and may God bless you.

Release from trauma to happy life

By the time I reached Jerusalem, I had reached the end of both my patience at how much pain I was in and my ideas of what to do about it. I had been through many different kinds of therapy and body work. I was even a licensed therapist and certified body worker myself. So I knew how to think about healing. But I could not heal my own body, at least not enough to feel at ease and comfortable.

Because I was having difficult learning Hebrew and knew that I had been diagnosed with an auditory processing disorder, I made an appointment with a speech therapist for an evaluation. She suggested that I find a neurolinguistic programmer and change some of the basic messages that I had been living with all my life. She said that I had some dyslexia with Hebrew but before I worked on that, I had to clear out some of the incorrect information that I was using to live my life with. I was given Eliezer’s name as someone who practiced neurolinguistic programming and called to interview him. I wanted to be sure I was working with the right person. I was on a fixed income and wanted what little money I had to go for the right treatment.

When I spoke to Eliezer, I knew I wanted to see what he could do for/with me. He first said he thought I did not need NLP work, that I needed to get the trauma out of my body and it was the trauma that was creating the pain. I had spent many years working with trauma survivors and what he said rang true to me. As long as the trauma remains in our bodies, we are not free to live the life we were meant to live. Free to live up to our true potential and creativity. I decided to make and appointment and see what would happen.

The method that we worked with (Tapas Accupressure Technique-TAT) is deceptively simple and easy to use. The theory is we have 12 energy centers that basically match our organ system. For example, there is a heart meridian, lung meridian, stomach meridian, etc. Each of those organs and consequently energy centers absorb unresolved trauma and create a negative reaction in our bodies. The more we hold on to the trauma, the more our bodies are filled with stress and tension. TAT engages the meridians, the seat of the body’s healthy reactions and replaces the traumatic messages with the most important information for the survivor, that the trauma happened long ago, is over and the person is now okay. But this is okay, not in the sense that there is no pain or reason to focus on the trauma but that the person is out of the trauma, is not still endanger because of it. But can feel themselves free from that situation and free to create a different kind of life based on the reality of what is happening right now, not what already happened in the past.

This was crucial information to me. It’s not that I had not known that concept before but no matter how many times I told myself that, I still felt like I was sitting or standing or lying in the middle of the trauma with no way to escape. But working with TAT, I found myself out of the trauma experience. Sometimes I was sitting alone in the room, sometimes dancing with myself or others, sometimes laughing and joking with people who had before been my tormenters.

For the first few sessions, I felt complete release. My body had never felt so good. I was relaxed, peace, had so much more energy, and was more social. People who saw me said I looked as though I had just woken up from a long nap and was refreshed.

But I would not be telling the whole story if I did not add this next piece. After the first 3 or 4 weeks, the work became harder and I was dragging myself through my past traumas with less ease. But and this is very important, with the same kind of equanimity that I had discovered during the first few sessions. I could feel more of the pain of the trauma but I felt it through a veil of healing. I knew it was leaving my body and I knew new layers of trauma were coming up but I was not reliving the trauma. Rather I was releasing the trauma and through that release, I was discovering different parts of myself that I did not know were there or rediscovering parts that I hadn’t had access to for many years.

Between sessions I tracked my progress. There was always some positive change even if I also had more memories or more experiences of different traumas than the one I was working on. But the positive changes didn’t leave even when something new was coming up. I maintained the work I did in the office and added to it both during the week and at the next session. I paid very close attention to what I was feeling, thinking, doing. How high my level of stress was. How much I wanted to be with people, or be alone. I tend to want to be alone so I paid attention to when that was intensified and when I was able to be more social.

The biggest piece of trauma that I worked on was a car accident that happened when I was five. I had three serious injuries and was incapacitated, in bed for 4 months. In doing this work, I connected pains in my head, leg, and shoulder and back with injuries I had received from this accident. Some of them were obvious but I had not connected them. Some were not obvious at all and I was stunned at how long I had been carrying this pain with me. As I focused my attention on each part of the trauma, my body released the trauma and breathed life into itself.

Besides the dimension of working with trauma that actually happened in my life, we also worked on the trauma that happened to my ancestors and to me in other gilgulim. I had done a lot of work about my family and my own past lives but this work got to the heart of the issues-how the traumas of my family affected them and also affected me through them.

There is one thing I would caution you about. It is crucial to be willing to change, to be willing to let go and have your life become more natural and comfortable. All of us can get used to the affects of the trauma and assume that a physical pain or emotional pattern will be with us always. The pain of the trauma has to be more severe than the fear of letting the trauma go. We have to be willing to go through some pain to let go of the pain. One of the wonderful things about TAT is that it does not require us to relive the trauma in order to heal. We may experience some discomfort and some

fear but it passes quickly and easily. TAT makes room in our bodies for the natural body/psychic rhythms to take over.

One year after my treatment sessions TAT

of my Physical and Mental Abuse

I started my treatments with Eliezer Spetter over a year and a half ago.

I needed to treat traumas and difficulties of which I never dreamed that I would be able to release (after trying other types of treatment as well).

Today, thank G-d, after seeing how TAT has helped me become stable and relaxed, I can stay with this remarkable technique that G-d enabled me to find.

I now experience feelings of release and the disconnection from the traumas that haunted me day and night which hopefully will never come back. I feel free

The most worthwhile and profitable gift that I can have imagined for myself is life after TAT – throwing away all of the waste and garbage that separate us from the wonderful life that G-d has given us.

I do not regret one shekel spent on these treatments, and I spent hundreds, if not thousands, of shekels.

If you have heard about TAT, do not forfeit the opportunity to liberate yourself.

Back Pain, Hand Pain and Physical and Mental Abuse

“I suffered terribly from strong back pain and hand pain. Regarding the hand pain, I was told that there was no chance that the hand would recover; the hand barely functioned. In an X-ray, slipped discs were found and other problems showed up in a CAT scan.

During EFT and TAT treatments with Eliezer Spetter, the pain disappeared almost entirely and the hand resumed functioning. It appears that there is a powerful connection between a person’s physical feeling and his emotional state. I came for treatment because of a personal trauma that I had recently experienced; the trauma was very difficult and I received immense help from the Eliezer Spetter’s unique treatments. My childhood trauma was that of my mother not loving me. After that, between the ages of seven and twelve, I suffered severe physical and mental abuse (I was not raped). The treatments freed me from this trauma as well.

Recently, I experienced a family trauma concerning my husband, a very difficult situation of domestic discord not found normally in a family.

This was a really exceptional problem that I could not discuss, and anyone hearing about it would think it was imaginary, not real. Eliezer’s treatment helped me get back on my feet when I was feeling helpless and afraid. I had been in a terrible state, barely functioning.

Today I am functioning, as is my hand, the one on which that the doctors gave up. I hope that through another few treatments my hand will function fully. I warmly recommend these treatment methods to anyone interested.”

Rape

“How can I cope with people who share my unpleasant past? How can I cope with seeing them? How can I not avoid the area? How can I not be hurt by their behavior around me? Through and during the treatment, I had several encounters; initially, I went into total shock; I didn’t know what to do, where to turn. During the treatment, I learned to face up to people who were unpleasant to be with. For me, that was a victory, because I didn’t run away. I stood my ground. Previously, I could not even speak, but I learned to keep this person away from me, without the whole thing becoming a nuisance. Thank you.”

Physical and Mental Abuse

“Not a day passed in which I didn’t see in my mind’s eye the terrible experiences of physical and mental abuse I experienced. During my last NLP treatment this simply disappeared, and I am able now to live a normal life.

There is a well-know saying of our sages, “G-d provides the solution before the problem”, and I have merited seeing the truth in this with my own eyes. G-d has provided the world with TAT through R. Eliezer, who has helped and saved many people, including my husband and myself.

There are no words to describe our appreciation to you for all your hours and efforts, which saved our lives and our souls.

After the horrible and appalling trauma that continued for 13 years, in which a family member abused me in unspeakable ways. After my marriage, thank G-d, my eyes were opened, and I understood the truth about these unspeakable things that had been withheld from me for 13 years. At that moment a darkness fell upon me, and I felt that I couldn’t continue living after having experienced such physical and emotional traumas, and which are prohibited by the Torah.

G-d, in His infinite mercy and kindness, did not abandon me and I wandered from counselor to counselor and from therapist to therapist, but everything remained the same. I reached despair and total depression but G-d had pity on me, and made me aware of a special therapist, a humble and unassuming person, who lives in pure faith that he is a tool of the Almighty’s, put in this world to help and heal souls among the people of Israel. R. Eliezer Spetter, recommended by worthy and G-d-fearing rabbis, does wonders in healing body and soul for any Jew who needs him.

When I first came to Eliezer I was weak and despairing, full of anger and a desire to take revenge on my whole family. I lived every moment with intense and terrible feelings, together with the bitter traumas that never left me. I very much wanted to become free of the past, of everything in every sense, and to begin life anew. With G-d’s help, R. Eliezer was able to provide solace. It’s unbelievable, but today, thank G-d, after a year of therapy, I live my life in equanimity and self-confidence, strong and independent, empowered, forgiving of the past. Thank G-d, I strive only to move forward in the total belief that everything that happened was decreed by heaven, and that G-d will give me strength to continue doing holy work to His satisfaction in every way. Therefore, Eliezer, you have been a good servant of G-d, saving me in body and soul and for future generations; all the mental, physical and emotional changes I underwent throughout the year of therapy have affected not only me and my husband, but all those around me.

My energy has been changed, and a new life has unfolded before me – it seems like a miracle from above! Therefore I warmly recommend R. Eliezer, who is a worthy messenger from G-d, who aids all in need of help and healing of the soul, which in turn heals the body. With G-d’s help, you can also achieve a new and improved life in every sense, and thus serve Him and do His work whole-heartedly.

Those who seek treatment should not forget that they must be fully committed and desirous of change, and should not be afraid of changing.

Eliezer, it is said that if one saves one person it is as if one saved the entire world. With a heart overflowing with appreciation and many thanks, and blessings that your work bears fruit and brings satisfaction to our Father in heaven, and that G-d’s grace be with you always. The _______ Family

Dear Rav Eliezer Spetter,

I approached you after many years of emotional, social and family difficulties, all due to a troubled childhood. At that stage I felt that it would be better if I were dead.

After trying different methods, including psychology, I did not believe that there was anything that could help me easily or quickly.

The main thing that I liked about TAT is that there was no need to talk about the past, and the treatment worked anyway.

Today, after only twelve treatments, I feel that I have succeeded in separating the facts and traumas of my past from the feelings. I am now able to function on a day-to-day basis without having to deal with the stormy emotions that accompanied me until I began the treatment.

I would like to thank you for being a true and faithful emissary, for the devoted and caring treatment, and for your great efforts that enabled me to feel comfortable and safe.

There are no words to express my wishes to you, but that you continue to help all those who are needy, and the G-d pay your true reward.

Gratefully yours,

I Was Molested Over a Period of Four Years

Dear Eliezer Spetter,

Thank you for your tremendous help with my trauma.

When I was a young child I was molested over a period of four years, and for twenty-four years, I lived in fear, detached from the world and my surroundings. I did not believe that I could heal from this.

With your help, I am now able to begin living.

I often see the person who hurt me, and in the past I would get frightened and tense up. After several sessions I feel much better. I see this person and feel nothing.

You have helped me put the past where it belongs so that I can live in the present and have a hopeful future.

I cannot thank you enough.

Sexual, physical and mental abuse that I suffered from my father

Dear Eliezer.

Thank you very much for the excellent, professional treatments .

When I realized I needed to find a treatment for myself, I was looking for something that would help me get out of the rut I was in, but would not force me to re-experience everything that had happened, and that would give me the strength to properly take care of my children.

Rabbanit Naomi Shapiro recommended TAT, while Rabbanit Levanon had once discussed the technique with me.

The main problem was domestic peace – shlom bayit – especially when I was physically weak: during pregnancy and postpartum. I felt that my husband did not understand me, he was unapproachable and disappointed in me. But the biggest problem, the one that I was afraid treat was the sexual, physical and mental abuse that I suffered from my father, a very complex affair that affected my life more than I realized.

What motivated me to seek help were difficulties that came up with my three year old son who was diagnosed with a developmental delay: he did not talk, would salivate, had motoric difficulties in his hands, and required physical therapy for his clumsiness, occupational therapy, and speech therapy . He found it difficult to go to kindergarten and to become toilet trained.

I was very surprised and troubled my all these, and began to become confused and All this is very surprising to me and weighed me as a mother. I became confused and depressed.

And there were other, various issues which shocked, confused and frightened me, and they awoke all of my repressed problems.

Another cause of trouble was the death of my sister in a car accident during when I was young and which had stayed with me an unresolved trauma throughout my life.

Exactly one year ago, I was cured by Eliezer, who I regard as a messenger from God. My life has changed and greatly improved. I’m happier, relaxed and more at ease, and am amazed that there was something that could help me.

I came to the TAT workshops so I could learn how to continue to treat myself, my dear husband, my sweet children, and others who may have difficulties . I found my calling . I had searched far and wide to find satisfying work whereby I could help others, and thank God, through you, I found it .

Allergy

No help for my eczema and my weightproblem

During our final meeting, when you asked that I write about my treatment, it seemed so simple and clear, but when I sat down to write, I found that I did not know where to begin and I couldn’t bring myself to write. I kept on putting it off until I thought, “Why don’t I just do TAT on this?” So I did…

For the longest time I felt that I was in a whirlpool of pressure and emotional tension, which disturbed me greatly. I could not come to terms with the way I was and I had an enormous amount of mixed thoughts that would overwhelm me. Sometimes I thought that I would explode from the tension. Actually, I did not have any “blowouts”, but inside everything was turbulent and boiling. I was busy with what was going on inside of me, and my head sometimes hurt just too often. I wanted to take care of my issues, to be relaxed and calm, not to get upset about every little thing, just to know how to calm down when I was upset. But in the meantime I didn’t do anything – I just wanted to…

One day, I felt a painful itching on my legs, and saw that my skin was red and peeling. I went to the doctor who told me that I had eczema. For the next few months I used creams and bathed my skin, but to no avail. It would come and go, spread and then lessen and suddenly come back. I had allergy tests to see if I was sensitive to anything. Then I heard that there is a connection between skin problems and stress, and I decided that it was about time to take the matters in hand.

I had already heard about you, but I now made the step and came to see for myself. I had heard that you use a unique technique called TAT, a special gift that G-d has given us by which we can influence the energies within us and thus control our feelings and thoughts. After the first meeting, I could see that the eczema had abated.

Sometimes when I am under pressure or am unable to concentrate or do something, I stop, do TAT, and then continue with renewed strength. I now feel more at ease and relaxed, as though I have been reborn. I can now flow with society, with my family and, most importantly, I am happy within myself.

During my treatments, I also worked on my Weight problems and eating disorders. I am now able to maintain a normal weight.

I would like to thank you for the personal attention, for your openness and care, for the wonderful feelings that accompanied me during each treatment and which I relish when I look back on those treatments.

I also thank G-d who enabled me to know you and this wonderful technique.

Meir

Garlic Allergy

During the last year, I noticed that when I eat garlic, I feel bad. It affects me and causes digestive problems, nausea, and general feeling of illness. As if the body refuses to accept the garlic.

I decided to treat this because I felt that it really limits me; it bothers me to visit anyone because I didn’t know what is in the food and if they used garlic. I couldn’t stand the smell or even the sight of garlic.

After treatment with TAT under the auspices of Eliezer, I was able to conquer the allergy and I discovered amazing things about myself. I understood that the allergy stemmed from trauma. When I was a child, I suffered from worms in my digestive tract. My parents chose to treat me with garlic. A “power struggle” developed between us. As I child, I refused to accept their aid and apparently my body developed “anti-garlic” tendencies. After the TAT treatment, my body and soul were able to receive the garlic again out of “friendship”.

TAT- a solution for an easy, happy life that flows and is “tasty”. That same day I prepared garlic bread! And it tasted very good, I love it.

It’s important for me to tell people about the miracles that the technique caused. The tool is easy, practical and every person can aid himself with it.

It’s a must for every home!

Thank you, Eliezer

And thanks to G-d,

S from Jerusalem

Do you believe in God or your erroneous beliefs?

Until I started performing TAT,

I did not know how many mistaken beliefs flutter in my head without paying attention to them.

Performing a TAT gave me a lot of publicity,

And today I “hear” different “voices” in my head.

This way I can find out their credibility and change them if necessary.

The therapist needed many explanations until I understood the idea of ​​misconceptions, and even more explanations were needed until I agreed with him.

Instead of explaining, let’s give an example.

I was in the advanced stages of my pregnancy, and the therapist asked me what I wanted to work on about childbirth. I did not have to think much. I was very apprehensive about the pains I suffered from breastfeeding in the first few days after the birth of my previous children. The contractions designed to shrink the extension back to its original shape are far from pleasant, as all mothers who have experienced these know. The appearance of breastfeeding mothers who contort their faces due to the pain, a permanent appearance is in the breastfeeding rooms.

So intense is the pain that some people take painkillers before breastfeeding.

When I told this to the therapist he exclaimed aloud, “But this is a mistaken belief!”. “But it’s true.” I replied, “Ask any mother, especially those who have had many births. They will tell you that it is a fact. Every doctor will explain it to you.” But the therapist insisted it was a misconception. It is not true for real. Only God, and He alone, is the absolute truth! Every truth and every statistic has exceptions. We hear things, and supposedly invite them to happen. This is similar to the prophecies against which we warn parents in raising an offspring to whom they are nevertheless flawed.

Since “victory of the spirit” is not only an expression but a reality within the human mind, our thoughts and beliefs about life and ourselves have a great impact on all of us.

In any case, in the recurring debate between us, he suggested that we simply work on the issue. So it was.

They say a house shows eyes by means of ears. I can truly testify that this was the first time I did not suffer to mean after the birth. Did I have an intention? Yes, there were. But I did not suffer from them. I will explain the meaning of this to you. This time, thanks to TAT it was a completely different experience. Every time I breastfed, and the hormone secreted with the milk while breastfeeding contracted the wide, I wanted to shout, “Yes! The hormones are working, I will have milk and my uterus is shrinking back into place.”

If so, I felt the pain but it was not a negative pain but definitely positive. I also did not fight against the feeling, but rather welcomed it. On top of that, because I saw the pain in a positive light, I did not burden him with all the associations of pain and his fear that would cause me even more pain but a superior feeling of the contracting muscle.

This is very similar to the Swiss birth method in which the midwife is taught to translate the feeling of wide contractions not as a pain from which one must flee,

But as a blessed feeling with which one can act.

This life experience has clearly shown me that the solution lies in the brain. We make it difficult for ourselves because of the wrong thoughts. This concept is also known today in conventional medicine as a psychosomatic disease. Diseases that seem imaginary, but the patient has real physical pain even though physically everything is fine.

The pain is due to irritation in the patient’s brain. However, conventional medicine admits that certain diseases are caused – in part or in full – by stress or fear. This means that an imbalance in a person’s feelings and thoughts can have a direct effect on his physical health, such as high blood pressure, heart disease or cancer.

A few days ago I again saw clearly how our brains cause trouble. I went to the post office hoping the session could go through the computer with some details of banking activity. He was unable to find the information I requested. As I was leaving the post office I noticed a headache. I immediately realized the headache was caused by my anger at the post office. I did a quick TAT and told myself that “even if things don’t work out the way I want, I don’t need a headache.” When I performed the TAT I was amazed to feel how the headache passes.

A few days later I discovered another discovery. We are not aware of the amount of misconceptions we have. Throughout childhood we absorb all the information about life as the sponge absorbs water. Children do not have the ability to analyze or critique the information they absorb, rather they record it in true gravity, and the information is stored in the lower drawers of our brain, in the subconscious. Later for free, we respond and manage to agree on what is stored in our minds. I will bring a personal example again.

Some time ago I had a very busy Friday, a day where I stood on my feet for an entire day. After lighting the Shabbat candles, I fell into a chair and noticed leg pain. I said to myself, “No wonder, you stood on the continuation r all day, and more with being overweight.” “Just a moment,” I wondered to myself, “this is a misconception. Many people stand on their feet all day long, and many are overweight too, but their legs do not hurt.”

There must be a misconception here. I performed a TAT and what appeared? Suddenly I saw in the depths of my mind my mother tying special health shoes for many hours of standing and cleaning for Passover – and she was really overweight. there it is. Although my mother never said anything in that direction, just seeing her wear the shoes she remembered in the memory of the girl that standing for a long time can cause leg pain. After I finished the TAT I noticed, to my surprise, that my legs stopped hurting. Really amazing.

The list is very long. Today, using placebo drugs, the medical world has established impressive statistics that talk about the concept of “victory of the spirit.”

A person who knows he is not a victim of circumstances has a sense of power. He can deal positively with any experience God puts before him. It all depends on his response, he must check his mind and make sure he does see life in the right way.

Successfully!

I was privileged to draw closer to the soul within me that was given to me by the Name

In honor of Eliezer Speter

I want to tell a little about all the moves I went through, much thanks to the fact that I got to know this special method that Gd brought into the world in a generation of such attempts – the TAT server.

From a young age I went through traumas that left a mark on my soul that I just never saw a chance to get out of, but I came to Eliezer through a friend, literally from heaven, when I no longer wanted to live because water had reached my soul.

Already to the fireplace

R. The first treatment with Eliezer I started to feel that something was starting to move, to let go… But I knew it was going to be a process. So after a number of treatments in which I invested all my attention in terms of time – because I had to spend a lot of time traveling from the north to Jerusalem – I felt an improvement.

And wherever a person wants to walk, God leads him.

And since then my life has changed from end to end: I have been privileged to approach the soul within me given to me by the Name, to purify and remove from it all the “shells” that have been inflicted on me as a result of the traumas; I began to approach the Creator of the world who wanted to give me another life, a life of liberation and joy, a life of truth and purpose.

Today I have had a Teshuvah for seven years, I was privileged to do a gradual and healthy process out of love and desire to find out what God wants from me and I discovered a life of Torah and mitzvos that today I do not replace them for any life. That everything he does – for the better he does. The traumas have been released from me, and I feel much healthier, accepting and whole with myself.

After a few years I went to study the TAT course with Eliezer in order to get tools and continue working with myself. So now I am in the stages of the internship and I also get to do a TAT on myself and release emotional barriers, and also help others and take care of them as part of the experience.

So in conclusion, what is left for me is to say a big thank you to the Creator of the world who has privileged me to approach Him through faithful messengers to whom I owe a great deal of gratitude, who take care of the TAT method: Eliezer Spetter and his dear wife Eve.

Thank you so much.

Distress and inability to learn

I learned a lot of Torah and then I went into a very big period of decline and lack of desire both in learning

I learned a lot of Torah, kept to very many leaderships in Judaism, and then entered a very great period of decline and lack of desire in both study and leadership, until I reached a breaking point, from where I wanted to ascend, and did not know what I like, and what I do not like. I was very scared to go up again lest I fall again, I was very scared of “what will they say about me” and so on.

The treatment was at first funny and then even frustrating. That is, instead of dealing intellectually with the soul, R. Eliezer memorizes all kinds of sentences for you and you, like a robot / machine, release yourself – but slowly. I have put a lot of trust in the method and way of treatment to cleanse ourselves of all sorts of foundations that we are laid and act on.

Nowadays after treating TAT, I feel I have the power to decide for myself what I want. I have more courage to go back to places of learning at a good level, and go back to leadership, the courage to be more balanced and happy like that, and the ability to look at myself rather than those around me and what they want from me.

Thanks,

To Eliezer

Today, on the eve of my wedding, I owe you one simple, short, but very deep word:

“Thanks!”

Thank you that thanks to your care I have returned to doing and engaging in what I love so much, and what I am so connected to – Torah study and prayer.

About a year ago I came to you for the first time, mentally wounded, in pain and full of internal anguish, in a brace, unable to function.

It happened gradually, I studied in a yeshiva for several years and as the years went by I felt more and more difficult to learn, I felt an inner distress every time I studied, until one morning I got up and felt I could not go to a yeshiva. It just created in me some intense inner distress that did not allow me to get close to any book, study and even prayer became a burdensome and oppressive burden. I got up in the morning when my whole world was taken from me…

Studying was all my occupation and all my ambition, and suddenly, I could not realize and deal with what was most important and precious to me, I went through a very difficult period.

In consultation with a rabbi, I took a year off from studying for a year and turned to engaging in education, but I was still dealing with terrible anguish. Every prayer was a distress that I just wanted to end, the stay in the synagogue was like a heavy and oppressive burden for me. Of course asked for holy books I could not get close.

After a year I went back to study in the morning for a month, it was nice. But after a month, I once again had the distress and turmoil of everything to do with learning. I felt like I was standing with my back to the wall, I have nowhere to run…

I talked about it with Rabbi Elyakim Lebanon Shlita and he referred me to you. We met for several months, dozens of meetings, and slowly, I released distress after distress, with thorough and deep work, we managed to get to different experiences I went through that actually made me accumulate distress and suffocation. Nothing, prevented me from studying.

Monday I went back to study and teach Torah and I feel great.

The method you work with is a real miracle, an amazing method! No words. Your treatment I gave me throughout the treatment was wonderful.

Also there is no doubt that you should take this method to life, continue to apply it even after your treatment, in dealing with everyday difficulties.

You have won the privilege of helping a Jew to return to the Torah and to pray out of joy and peace of mind.

I congratulate you for helping many people over the days and years.

Thank you Thank you Thank you!

I could not read at all ..

My name is Ephraim.

A few years ago, I could not read at all. I went from institute to institute and from doctor to doctor to professors…

I progressed, but when I read I read slowly and it just did not flow to me, and more than that, reading before people was a death for me. Stress, Fear, Fever… I blushed when asked to read. Until I got to Eliezer Speter…

Now, after a few sessions, I’m just happy. I read fast. I do not have the stress and fear I had before the treatment!

I thank Eliezer very much and I wish him to continue to succeed in advancing the patients in this way and that God will send him blessing and success in all his deeds.

post Scriptum. I really enjoy Eliezer’s kindness and warmth and patience. I had fun coming.

Thank you.

Making dreams come true

“I am a fan of cricket, and my only wish, to reach 100 points, seemed like a dream that would not come true at the age of 47. A year ago I came to you and the next day I got 106 points!
And the day after that 113 points! Since then I have always been successful in the game and my friends do not believe in the big change that has taken place in my ability! I use EFT whenever there is an emotional challenge. “

I had been suffering from low self-confidence and self-image

I came to TAT because I had been suffering from low self-confidence and self-image, poor social skills, fear of success, and a need for approval from others for most of my life, all stemming from childhood trauma.

TAT has helped me reconnect with my true self by healing and removing the fears, pain, and false concepts I had about myself and my capabilities, step by step, painlessly and enjoyably. I say enjoyably because I was amazed at the changes within me after each session. Early on I had already found myself being more confident and secure at home and at work.

B”H, I am no longer plagued by self-doubts or feelings of inadequacy, and it shows in my professional and interpersonal relationships.

I can truly say that through TAT I have not just discovered a “new” me, but have rediscovered the real me — and I’m forever grateful!

Pressures & Self Confidence

I reached the conclusion that something was preventing me from succeeding.

Through a self-examination of the job interviews I had had in the past few years in my occupational and family life, I reached the conclusion that I had a problem with my self-confidence. As a result, I was overly pressured. After discussing the subject with my wife, she said that she loved

me, but I was the most stressed person she knew.’

I found out that Eliezer deals with this area, too.

The results:

I was bent over and stressed and after the first meeting, I left upright and unburdened.

After four meetings, I had a new job.

After a number of meetings, I had my blood pressure tested. The results: I hadn ‘ t had such low blood pressure in 12 years !

I am more open now- less concentrated on myself ,willing to accept criticism and capable of understanding other people more easily. I express myself ,more clearly. I have learned basic tools to help myself.

In conclusion, the turn to treatment was an investment in interpersonal skills and in health. And it has repercussions on all aspects of life.

My thanks to G-d and to Eliezer for the tool to the rectification of the serious mistakes that were made in the past.

I was insecure about the way I looked and who I was.

I began treatment with TAT because I felt stuck due to things I had experienced throughout my life: I felt that I could not open up to people and connect with them, especially so when I tried to go out with men. I also felt that I did not appreciate myself enough; I felt that although they told me that they love me, those around me did not really do so and I felt very negative about myself. I was insecure about the way I looked and who I was. I have a complex relationship, with my mother and never knew how to deal with it.

Following treatment, I felt things released within. Suddenly I believe in myself. I believe that people really like me for who I am. I decided to appreciate myself far more! I never felt this way before – I’ve always been self-critical in everything but, due to TAT, I don’t feel that way any longer: I am now far more open and connect with people. I hope that soon I’ll be able to go out on shiduchim and be’ezrat Hashem soon find a husband. My attitude towards my mother has also improved due to small tips I received during the treatment sessions.

This is an opportunity to say a huge “thank you” for everything; I do not know what I’d have done without TAT. By the way, I previously never believed in any kind of treatment, but a friend managed to convince me to try “just once”. Thank G-d I listened. My experience with TAT was very successful and has helped me tremendously.

Total humiliation to a new life and feeling a new person

I am married with three children. I came to Eliezer Spetter due to the accumulation of thoughts that made me crazy. From the beginning of the first treatment, I saw a light at the end of the tunnel: an overflowing light to a new world and liberation from the oppressive thoughts and troubles that I had suffered from the beginning of my childhood: in short, to begin my start life over again relaxed and feeling free.

From a feeling of worthlessness that came after being humiliated and called names from my childhood through adulthood, after pressure from others and zero tolerance towards me, I realized that I was worth something, someone who can act positively and not be hurt by other people’s anger; I can look people in the eye and forgive them without a trace of fear – Now I know how to respond, how to relate to other people and succeed in life.

I had problems with my belief in myself and was really scared to talk to people.

Greetings to all who read this letter,

I first met dear Eliezer six years ago. I can honestly say that I did not know what to expect. I had problems with my belief in myself and was really scared to talk to people. I felt that I was really “small” and had to always consider other people’s opinions without allowing myself to express my own feelings. This was all before I met Eliezer.

Eliezer was able to solve everything through an thorough series of steps while explaining everything that we were doing. We found that I had hidden problematic behaviours that I did not know about, and these were cured as well and an emotional block that I had carried with me for years was released.

To summarize, I would like to encourage everyone who is on this journey. Believe in yourselves and believe in the method! It works one hundred percent.

Good luck to all, and thank you Eliezer from the bottom of my heart.

_____________

“I have undergone many changes; I have always managed somehow, but never felt as I do now; I’m much more self-confident.

We also worked on my hearing and it has improved. Now I have much more belief in my abilities. Even if I do something incorrectly, I check and fix it. I am also more confident in my work. Thank you.”

Self-confidence, Fears, Illness

-Why did you come to me?
“I came because of a lack of self-confidence that resulted from all kinds of internal fears.

-Illnesses, serious illnesses?
“Yes”.

-How are you feeling now?
“After treatment? Thank G-d, I feel better. More relaxed from day to day, not thinking about those things”.

-Do you believe that, in your current condition you are able to find a marriage partner?
“G-d willing. I feel much more confident, for sure”.

-Are you feeling stronger?
“I view myself differently, I see myself in a different light. I can do more than I could previously”.

-Faith?
“Faith, you have to share faith, everyone should share, that’s fine.

Self-confidence, a difficult life, sadness and pressure

“I had many difficult things happen in my life, much strife and much sadness and much pressure, and, thank G-d, due to Eliezer and the TAT method I left all that. Today I am able to function on my own, and, happily, feel like an entirely different person.

-Concerning your mother? That was difficult, right?
“Towards my parents, the situation was the worst. Thank G-d I rid myself of all that, with much help from Heaven and from Eliezer Spetter, who really saves people with the efforts he expends. Step by step things clear up. May G-d bless Eliezer and grant him success.

I have a physical problem that has not been resolved, but the physical problem is only the result of the spiritual problem. With this method, I feel that I have received help. I came with the objective of improving myself in avodat HaShem-serving G-d.

This method has definitely helped me find a way to overcome my anger that results from my physical problem, but I think it is only on condition that we continually say that the Almighty is always with us and that He can help us. Then we actually do have Divine assistance, and you are G-d’s instrument to help us improve our attributes, to improve ourselves, and to help ourselves.
There is no doubt that this method helped me. G-d willing, we will succeed in overcoming many things and you will continue this work.

I came here suffering from lack of self-confidence, which stemmed from various childhood traumas that caused me to have a wrong self-image, and, therefore, I viewed my family incorrectly.

I demanded from them things that I wished would change in myself, and this created distance from my family, a feeling of lack of love from my parents.

This increased my need for love, my pursuit of love, and my lack of receiving love, resulting in a wide radius of very difficult feelings. I came here feeling that my whole world was falling apart and that there was no hope left in my life.

Since I began this method, things have changed dramatically. Suddenly, no problems, everything is fine, I lack nothing, and I am satisfied with my life. Now I need nothing, I just live and love. I had all kinds of imaginations that caused me to feel unconnected, because of traumas in my head and in my heart. Thank you very much.

I came to you in order to be a better person , I felt that I had become the real “me”.

Dear Eliezer

I came to you in order to be a better person. I thought that my job was the problem, and that was what caused all difficulties in my life; that due to my job I have to be the one who determines the facts, and run my life and other people’s lives as I see fit.

I thank God that I found you and that you were a faithful messenger to help me see that my behavior can be changed and has nothing to do with my job, that if I don’t heal the root of the problem, it will appear somewhere else. What happens to people is not the issue – the issue is what happens within a person because of what has happened in the past. Whatever goes on inside is because of all kinds of damaged parts of the past that did not have a chance to heal, they were not treated or processed correctly.

I left with tears in my eyes. Thank God I was able to work at my job, the same job that what so challenging, and it was there that I was able to decide not to judge or make decisions but to pay attention and listen. I succeeded in changing my views easily and without a lot of effort.

I felt that I had become the real “me” and had no need to judge others the way I had judged myself.

I thank Hashem who gave you the ability and the talent to develop this system in ways that helped release the anguish that had been with me for so many years.

Physical, Mental Abuse

One year after my treatment sessions TAT

of my Physical and Mental Abuse

I started my treatments with Eliezer Spetter over a year and a half ago.

I needed to treat traumas and difficulties of which I never dreamed that I would be able to release (after trying other types of treatment as well).

Today, thank G-d, after seeing how TAT has helped me become stable and relaxed, I can stay with this remarkable technique that G-d enabled me to find.

I now experience feelings of release and the disconnection from the traumas that haunted me day and night which hopefully will never come back. I feel free

The most worthwhile and profitable gift that I can have imagined for myself is life after TAT – throwing away all of the waste and garbage that separate us from the wonderful life that G-d has given us.

I do not regret one shekel spent on these treatments, and I spent hundreds, if not thousands, of shekels.

If you have heard about TAT, do not forfeit the opportunity to liberate yourself.

Back Pain, Hand Pain and Physical and Mental Abuse

“I suffered terribly from strong back pain and hand pain. Regarding the hand pain, I was told that there was no chance that the hand would recover; the hand barely functioned. In an X-ray, slipped discs were found and other problems showed up in a CAT scan.

During EFT and TAT treatments with Eliezer Spetter, the pain disappeared almost entirely and the hand resumed functioning. It appears that there is a powerful connection between a person’s physical feeling and his emotional state. I came for treatment because of a personal trauma that I had recently experienced; the trauma was very difficult and I received immense help from the Eliezer Spetter’s unique treatments. My childhood trauma was that of my mother not loving me. After that, between the ages of seven and twelve, I suffered severe physical and mental abuse (I was not raped). The treatments freed me from this trauma as well.

Recently, I experienced a family trauma concerning my husband, a very difficult situation of domestic discord not found normally in a family.

This was a really exceptional problem that I could not discuss, and anyone hearing about it would think it was imaginary, not real. Eliezer’s treatment helped me get back on my feet when I was feeling helpless and afraid. I had been in a terrible state, barely functioning.

Today I am functioning, as is my hand, the one on which that the doctors gave up. I hope that through another few treatments my hand will function fully. I warmly recommend these treatment methods to anyone interested.”

Rape

“How can I cope with people who share my unpleasant past? How can I cope with seeing them? How can I not avoid the area? How can I not be hurt by their behavior around me? Through and during the treatment, I had several encounters; initially, I went into total shock; I didn’t know what to do, where to turn. During the treatment, I learned to face up to people who were unpleasant to be with. For me, that was a victory, because I didn’t run away. I stood my ground. Previously, I could not even speak, but I learned to keep this person away from me, without the whole thing becoming a nuisance. Thank you.”

Physical and Mental Abuse

“Not a day passed in which I didn’t see in my mind’s eye the terrible experiences of physical and mental abuse I experienced. During my last NLP treatment this simply disappeared, and I am able now to live a normal life.

There is a well-know saying of our sages, “G-d provides the solution before the problem”, and I have merited seeing the truth in this with my own eyes. G-d has provided the world with TAT through R. Eliezer, who has helped and saved many people, including my husband and myself.

There are no words to describe our appreciation to you for all your hours and efforts, which saved our lives and our souls.

After the horrible and appalling trauma that continued for 13 years, in which a family member abused me in unspeakable ways. After my marriage, thank G-d, my eyes were opened, and I understood the truth about these unspeakable things that had been withheld from me for 13 years. At that moment a darkness fell upon me, and I felt that I couldn’t continue living after having experienced such physical and emotional traumas, and which are prohibited by the Torah.

G-d, in His infinite mercy and kindness, did not abandon me and I wandered from counselor to counselor and from therapist to therapist, but everything remained the same. I reached despair and total depression but G-d had pity on me, and made me aware of a special therapist, a humble and unassuming person, who lives in pure faith that he is a tool of the Almighty’s, put in this world to help and heal souls among the people of Israel. R. Eliezer Spetter, recommended by worthy and G-d-fearing rabbis, does wonders in healing body and soul for any Jew who needs him.

When I first came to Eliezer I was weak and despairing, full of anger and a desire to take revenge on my whole family. I lived every moment with intense and terrible feelings, together with the bitter traumas that never left me. I very much wanted to become free of the past, of everything in every sense, and to begin life anew. With G-d’s help, R. Eliezer was able to provide solace. It’s unbelievable, but today, thank G-d, after a year of therapy, I live my life in equanimity and self-confidence, strong and independent, empowered, forgiving of the past. Thank G-d, I strive only to move forward in the total belief that everything that happened was decreed by heaven, and that G-d will give me strength to continue doing holy work to His satisfaction in every way. Therefore, Eliezer, you have been a good servant of G-d, saving me in body and soul and for future generations; all the mental, physical and emotional changes I underwent throughout the year of therapy have affected not only me and my husband, but all those around me.

My energy has been changed, and a new life has unfolded before me – it seems like a miracle from above! Therefore I warmly recommend R. Eliezer, who is a worthy messenger from G-d, who aids all in need of help and healing of the soul, which in turn heals the body. With G-d’s help, you can also achieve a new and improved life in every sense, and thus serve Him and do His work whole-heartedly.

Those who seek treatment should not forget that they must be fully committed and desirous of change, and should not be afraid of changing.

Eliezer, it is said that if one saves one person it is as if one saved the entire world. With a heart overflowing with appreciation and many thanks, and blessings that your work bears fruit and brings satisfaction to our Father in heaven, and that G-d’s grace be with you always. The _______ Family

Release from trauma to happy life

By the time I reached Jerusalem, I had reached the end of both my patience at how much pain I was in and my ideas of what to do about it. I had been through many different kinds of therapy and body work. I was even a licensed therapist and certified body worker myself. So I knew how to think about healing. But I could not heal my own body, at least not enough to feel at ease and comfortable.

Because I was having difficult learning Hebrew and knew that I had been diagnosed with an auditory processing disorder, I made an appointment with a speech therapist for an evaluation. She suggested that I find a neurolinguistic programmer and change some of the basic messages that I had been living with all my life. She said that I had some dyslexia with Hebrew but before I worked on that, I had to clear out some of the incorrect information that I was using to live my life with. I was given Eliezer’s name as someone who practiced neurolinguistic programming and called to interview him. I wanted to be sure I was working with the right person. I was on a fixed income and wanted what little money I had to go for the right treatment.

When I spoke to Eliezer , I knew I wanted to see what he could do for/with me. He first said he thought I did not need NLP work, that I needed to get the trauma out of my body and it was the trauma that was creating the pain. I had spent many years working with trauma survivors and what he said rang true to me. As long as the trauma remains in our bodies, we are not free to live the life we were meant to live. Free to live up to our true potential and creativity. I decided to make and appointment and see what would happen.

The method that we worked with (Tapas Accupressure Technique-TAT) is deceptively simple and easy to use. The theory is we have 12 energy centers that basically match our organ system. For example, there is a heart meridian, lung meridian, stomach meridian, etc. Each of those organs and consequently energy centers absorb unresolved trauma and create a negative reaction in our bodies. The more we hold on to the trauma, the more our bodies are filled with stress and tension. TAT engages the meridians, the seat of the body’s healthy reactions and replaces the traumatic messages with the most important information for the survivor, that the trauma happened long ago, is over and the person is now okay. But this is okay, not in the sense that there is no pain or reason to focus on the trauma but that the person is out of the trauma, is not still endanger because of it. But can feel themselves free from that situation and free to create a different kind of life based on the reality of what is happening right now, not what already happened in the past.

This was crucial information to me. It’s not that I had not known that concept before but no matter how many times I told myself that, I still felt like I was sitting or standing or lying in the middle of the trauma with no way to escape. But working with TAT, I found myself out of the trauma experience. Sometimes I was sitting alone in the room, sometimes dancing with myself or others, sometimes laughing and joking with people who had before been my tormenters.

For the first few sessions, I felt complete release. My body had never felt so good. I was relaxed, peace, had so much more energy, and was more social. People who saw me said I looked as though I had just woken up from a long nap and was refreshed.

But I would not be telling the whole story if I did not add this next piece. After the first 3 or 4 weeks, the work became harder and I was dragging myself through my past traumas with less ease. But and this is very important, with the same kind of equanimity that I had discovered during the first few sessions. I could feel more of the pain of the trauma but I felt it through a veil of healing. I knew it was leaving my body and I knew new layers of trauma were coming up but I was not reliving the trauma. Rather I was releasing the trauma and through that release, I was discovering different parts of myself that I did not know were there or rediscovering parts that I hadn’t had access to for many years.

Between sessions I tracked my progress. There was always some positive change even if I also had more memories or more experiences of different traumas than the one I was working on. But the positive changes didn’t leave even when something new was coming up. I maintained the work I did in the office and added to it both during the week and at the next session. I paid very close attention to what I was feeling, thinking, doing. How high my level of stress was. How much I wanted to be with people, or be alone. I tend to want to be alone so I paid attention to when that was intensified and when I was able to be more social.

The biggest piece of trauma that I worked on was a car accident that happened when I was five. I had three serious injuries and was incapacitated, in bed for 4 months. In doing this work, I connected pains in my head, leg, and shoulder and back with injuries I had received from this accident. Some of them were obvious but I had not connected them. Some were not obvious at all and I was stunned at how long I had been carrying this pain with me. As I focused my attention on each part of the trauma, my body released the trauma and breathed life into itself.

Besides the dimension of working with trauma that actually happened in my life, we also worked on the trauma that happened to my ancestors and to me in other gilgulim. I had done a lot of work about my family and my own past lives but this work got to the heart of the issues-how the traumas of my family affected them and also affected me through them.

There is one thing I would caution you about. It is crucial to be willing to change, to be willing to let go and have your life become more natural and comfortable. All of us can get used to the affects of the trauma and assume that a physical pain or emotional pattern will be with us always. The pain of the trauma has to be more severe than the fear of letting the trauma go. We have to be willing to go through some pain to let go of the pain. One of the wonderful things about TAT is that it does not require us to relive the trauma in order to heal. We may experience some discomfort and some fear but it passes quickly and easily. TAT makes room in our bodies for the natural body/psychic rhythms to take over.

Dear Rav Eliezer Spetter,

I approached you after many years of emotional, social and family difficulties, all due to a troubled childhood. At that stage I felt that it would be better if I were dead.

After trying different methods, including psychology, I did not believe that there was anything that could help me easily or quickly.

The main thing that I liked about TAT is that there was no need to talk about the past, and the treatment worked anyway.

Today, after only twelve treatments, I feel that I have succeeded in separating the facts and traumas of my past from the feelings. I am now able to function on a day-to-day basis without having to deal with the stormy emotions that accompanied me until I began the treatment.

I would like to thank you for being a true and faithful emissary, for the devoted and caring treatment, and for your great efforts that enabled me to feel comfortable and safe.

There are no words to express my wishes to you, but that you continue to help all those who are needy, and the G-d pay your true reward.

Gratefully yours,

I Was Molested Over a Period of Four Years

Dear Eliezer Spetter,

Thank you for your tremendous help with my trauma.

When I was a young child I was molested over a period of four years, and for twenty-four years, I lived in fear, detached from the world and my surroundings. I did not believe that I could heal from this.

With your help, I am now able to begin living.

I often see the person who hurt me, and in the past I would get frightened and tense up. After several sessions I feel much better. I see this person and feel nothing.

You have helped me put the past where it belongs so that I can live in the present and have a hopeful future.

I cannot thank you enough.

Sexual, physical and mental abuse that I suffered from my father

Dear Eliezer.

Thank you very much for the excellent, professional treatments .

When I realized I needed to find a treatment for myself, I was looking for something that would help me get out of the rut I was in, but would not force me to re-experience everything that had happened, and that would give me the strength to properly take care of my children.

Rabbanit Naomi Shapiro recommended TAT, while Rabbanit Levanon had once discussed the technique with me.

The main problem was domestic peace – shlom bayit – especially when I was physically weak: during pregnancy and postpartum. I felt that my husband did not understand me, he was unapproachable and disappointed in me. But the biggest problem, the one that I was afraid treat was the sexual, physical and mental abuse that I suffered from my father, a very complex affair that affected my life more than I realized.

What motivated me to seek help were difficulties that came up with my three year old son who was diagnosed with a developmental delay: he did not talk, would salivate, had motoric difficulties in his hands, and required physical therapy for his clumsiness, occupational therapy, and speech therapy . He found it difficult to go to kindergarten and to become toilet trained.

I was very surprised and troubled my all these, and began to become confused and All this is very surprising to me and weighed me as a mother. I became confused and depressed.

And there were other, various issues which shocked, confused and frightened me, and they awoke all of my repressed problems.

Another cause of trouble was the death of my sister in a car accident during when I was young and which had stayed with me an unresolved trauma throughout my life.

Exactly one year ago, I was cured by Eliezer, who I regard as a messenger from God. My life has changed and greatly improved. I’m happier, relaxed and more at ease, and am amazed that there was something that could help me.

I came to the TAT workshops so I could learn how to continue to treat myself, my dear husband, my sweet children, and others who may have difficulties . I found my calling . I had searched far and wide to find satisfying work whereby I could help others, and thank God, through you, I found it .

Heavy Mental Disorders

From Difficult Psychiatric condition to Sanity

First of all I would like to address those of you who have had the bitter experience of the lack of ability on the part of conventional medicine, and especially psychology and psychiatry, to answer patients’ needs; meaning to help improve their conditions even the slightest relief  (I am not talking about the large amounts of anti-psychotic medications, for example Zyprexa which in many instances definitely release the patient from his psychosis, but treats only the symptoms and not the illness itself).

You should not forget that every medication has its side effects (usually more than one). It would be funny if it were not so sad that one of the side effects of quite a few of the medications for depression is the contemplation of suicide…

Therefore, in psychiatry, the patient is his own guinea pig since the effect of the medication differs among individuals.

Regarding psychology: in order to reach any kind of progress, one has to undergo years upon years of visits, a few times a week and to waste a ton of time and bags of money – and in addition to your previous troubles, you become dependent upon your therapist.

Medicine has nothing to offer most of our present-day afflictions, may they be eating disorders or personal problems.

I would like to relate my story: I am one of those in whose medical chart it is written, “Well known in the psychiatric ward”. I began my acquaintanceship with the psychiatric ward at the age of fifteen. That was over twenty years ago. My history has recorded approximately fourteen (full) hospitalizations, the longest being for nine months…suicide attempts, innumerable scars on my body… and what do they have to say about it? “You are fortunate that you’ve passed your thirtieth birthday. It gets easier now.” I really don’t know what they are talking about because I have been hospitalized more than twice since my thirtieth birthday.

I was also in rehabilitation – not the best institution in the country but certainly one of the better ones. I was there for two years, and the best part was that I made a few good friends.

The only people within the system (psychology and psychiatry) who were of any help were those who cared about me. Their caring helped. I can’t see much connection between caring and psychology. The majority of psychologists who I have met usually say, “And how do you feel?” “What do you think about that?” “We are sorry that you feel this way” Is that what we need psychologists for? Moreover, the “treatment” can cost up to IS 600 per hour.

After the first meeting with Eliezer Spetter I already felt some relief, and even more so – hope. Hope that I had lost so long ago.

After a few more meetings, not only did I feel like a different person, I also saw and understood myself and the world differently.

I am a different person. I am healthy.

The choice is in one’s hands. Please choose life and contact Eliezer.

Thank you Eliezer.

Psychotic Post Natal Depression

Dear Eliezer,
Thank you so much for all of your help and for the tools that you gave me to deal with the difficulties that I had encountered.
Here are a few details about my past:
I have been married for five years and we have four children: twin boys aged four, a year-old son, and a daughter who is four months old.
After the birth of the twins (who were born through caesarian section) I began to get very confused, I was unable to fall asleep – often due to unpleasant and disturbing dreams, I developed a fear of anything around me, including people, objects, decorations on clothes, etc.  I cried a lot, I was sad, I had sudden mood swings, childhood memories affected my moods and I was concerned regarding my functioning as a mother.
The same thing happened after the second birth (which was a normal delivery). This time it was worse, and I had to go to a psychiatrist who treated me with medication until the condition was resolved.
I naturally did not want this to happen after the third birth, and I was naturally rather anxious.  A good friend told me about Eliezer, and I contacted him.
At first I was hesitant about exposing personal details, but after realizing that I did not have to tell any more than I wanted, I became more and more comfortable during the meetings.
I started meeting with Eliezer during the fourth month of my pregnancy.  I wanted to feel more comfortable regarding the pregnancy itself, and after a number of meetings I felt quite different.  My anxieties disappeared, the whole pregnancy was more pleasant and I was confident that I would experience a positive labour. The birth was indeed peaceful and I felt fine.
A few days after the birth, the dreams started to recur, and I recontacted Eliezer.  After two meetings the dreams stopped – with no medical intervention.
Now that I am familiar with the system, I am able to treat myself in any situation when I feel that I am getting nervous or upset.
I feel that Eliezer’s treatment has an influential effect on the source of physical and emotional problems that are within our bodies.

Treatment of a Psychotic Client

You arrived with a patient who was psychotic, that’s my understanding. Perhaps you could say a few words about that? What happened with him, how did things develop?
The patient came to me in a state of total distraction, which caused him much hardship. Thank Heaven, G-d sent me a messenger, who told me that there is a person, Eliezer Spetter, who can do wonders in just a few treatment sessions. By nature I am unimpressed with these sorts of things – it’s a known fact that it is said about many people that they have amazing abilities, when in actuality, it isn’t true. However, since the person who gave the recommendation is highly authoritative and reliable, and he told me that Eliezer is a person with much heavenly guidance in helping persons in need, I reached him, and, thank G-d, was extremely favorably impressed. I was convinced that in a few sessions Eliezer succeeds in setting a person upon the right path.
Before the treatment session, the patient suffered from a number of traumas, which caused him difficulties – these all disappeared entirely. This wasn’t a trauma or two, but a whole collection of traumas that greatly hindered the patient’s normal functioning. Thank G-d, Eliezer peeled the layers off of the onion, layer by layer, until reaching splendid results!
The patient’s life changed dramatically. Every worry and fear was corrected. Each disturbance that he suffered from was eliminated, and he returned to living a normal life with more strength and might. The patient began to exhibit initiative that he had never expressed before these treatment sessions. These sessions revealed additional things, new-found capabilities, and courage to speak and express heartfelt thoughts and feelings, that had never been heard. After these treatments great improvement was seen, thank G-d.

Help in Overcoming Schizophrenia

I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and depression, and was given medications accordingly.
I contacted Eliezer Spetter by recommendation from the chassidic rabbi Rabbi Shmuel Munk, after my hospitalization in the psychiatric ward, which did not help me at all. Of course I take pills, but after three months of noticing that the pills alone were not helping me, I turned to Rabbi Shmuel Munk, and he recommended that I travel to Jerusalem to Eliezer Spetter.
Five months have passed since then, and I feel much better, thank G-d.
When I arrived for the first session, I was in bad shape, confused, dysfunctional, helpless, and very perplexed.
Through Eliezer Spetter’s guidance, using methods that he explained how to use, I returned, step-by-step, to almost full functioning, both at home and in public.
Eliezer Spetter is a wise and sensitive person, and, most important, he wants to provide help to anyone to overcome difficult emotional states. Thank G-d he helped me with his special methods, and through understanding, without stress.
Many, many thanks for all the patience and help.

Depersonalization and Derealization

I am twenty-one years of age. I first came to Eliezer two months ago in a complicated emotional state that included depersonalization and realization – feelings of disconnection and severe helplessness.

After reading about these conditions on psychological and psychiatric sites of the internet, I understood that mine was a serious condition and nothing could help me.

After much desperate searching, I decided to try this technique – TAT.

I met with Eliezer and after the first meeting, I felt an enormous release, and thus we continued until all the symptoms disappeared – all through Eliezer, his understanding, his sensitivity, and his amazingly strong will to heal me completely.

After two months of treatment, I am a new person, strong and with the tools to deal with any problem that I may come up against.

Eliezer, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your dedicated treatment.

With love and much appreciation.

Post-Partum Depression and Psychosis

After previously suffering from post partum depression, I naturally wanted to prevent its return. I wanted to experience a normal childbirth and post partum period.

When I began TAT and sessions with you, I did not want to live anymore. I lay in bed throughout the day and started to smoke again. My life was simply a disaster and bringing children into the world normally was a problem for me.

We worked hard with TAT and I slowly I sensed improvement. Then, after a number of sessions, I had a relapse, because I started to think about something terrible that a rabbi had once told me. You helped me to express this terrible edict from the rabbi; he had said that in my situation it was impossible to have more children because each time I gave birth I would be psychotic.

Therefore, Eliezer, you began work with me on this, and from then on my progress and healing knew no bounds. I had kept this so long within me and had suffered from it; I did not know what my purpose in this life was and nothing interested me any more. It all turned around in one moment. Yet this healing was not yet enough for us since even though the depression had left me, how did I know that the psychosis that repeatedly attacked me was healed. You continued to work on my psychosis with TAT from a different angle each time until finally the bad memories of the psychosis dissipated. If I started to think about the psychosis, only very happy and joyful memories of my children visiting me in the hospital came up and I could not think about the problem any more. It simply healed.

Now today I feel strong, I am happier and more alive. I have more energy and I have stopped smoking. I really want to live and do not stay in bed anymore. My relationship with my mother also improved since her criticism does not bother me any more. The same goes for my husband.

Thank you so much Eliezer for restoring my life.

My daughter suffered from epilepsy

A few months later I found myself with a new challenge: I have a 17 year old daughter who was born with slight CP (cerebral palsy), but as a result she suffers from epilepsy. For many years the epilepsy was under control thanks to medication. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, she began to have multiple seizures – sometimes eight a day! Nothing we did (together with her neurologist) helped; we tried to change the doses of her medicine, to change the drug … but to no avail.

This went on for two months and then I decided that we should treat her with TAT. After the first meeting some of the seizures decreased. After two meetings the seizures began to be less severe, and after the third meeting they all but disappeared!!!

Absolutely unbelievable.

And what’s more, the MRI was normal.

Thank you Hashem and thank you Eliezer.

___________________

a traffic accident, the amputation of both legs

Dear Eliezer,

I started coming to you after a traffic accident that my husband and I were involved in nine months ago. I saw my husband was being seriously injured, and I was miraculously saved. I saw the strongest person I knew (who is also the person who means most to me) literally fall apart in front of me, and I then had to continue to deal with the consequences and a new life.

When I would walk in the street, any truck that was in the area, and it could have been distant, would make me shake uncontrollably and “freeze”; any car journey, slow as it may be, would leave me extremely tense.

I couldn’t really deal with my husband’s injury – the amputation of both legs –, and that was what I really wanted to take care of. It was providence that sent me to you, Eliezer. I must admit that I did not have great expectations for quick results yet I was enormously and pleasantly surprised.

I found a God fearing man who does extremely special work with a technique that seems to be very simple, but changes the world. After each treatment, I would leave rejuvenated and happy. The anxieties dissipated, the fear of trucks disappeared, and I accepted the situation with love; I am now able to continue to deal with what lies ahead with new strengths.

During the treatments, old matters that I had never dealt with came up, and these were dealt with most effectively and quickly.

I tell my story to everyone, wherever I am, and publicize my personal miracle and the Divine Providence that were my lot.

Thank you, Eliezer, and may God bless you.

Release from trauma to happy life

By the time I reached Jerusalem, I had reached the end of both my patience at how much pain I was in and my ideas of what to do about it. I had been through many different kinds of therapy and body work. I was even a licensed therapist and certified body worker myself. So I knew how to think about healing. But I could not heal my own body, at least not enough to feel at ease and comfortable.

Because I was having difficult learning Hebrew and knew that I had been diagnosed with an auditory processing disorder, I made an appointment with a speech therapist for an evaluation. She suggested that I find a neurolinguistic programmer and change some of the basic messages that I had been living with all my life. She said that I had some dyslexia with Hebrew but before I worked on that, I had to clear out some of the incorrect information that I was using to live my life with. I was given Eliezer’s name as someone who practiced neurolinguistic programming and called to interview him. I wanted to be sure I was working with the right person. I was on a fixed income and wanted what little money I had to go for the right treatment.

When I spoke to Eliezer, I knew I wanted to see what he could do for/with me. He first said he thought I did not need NLP work, that I needed to get the trauma out of my body and it was the trauma that was creating the pain. I had spent many years working with trauma survivors and what he said rang true to me. As long as the trauma remains in our bodies, we are not free to live the life we were meant to live. Free to live up to our true potential and creativity. I decided to make and appointment and see what would happen.

The method that we worked with (Tapas Accupressure Technique-TAT) is deceptively simple and easy to use. The theory is we have 12 energy centers that basically match our organ system. For example, there is a heart meridian, lung meridian, stomach meridian, etc. Each of those organs and consequently energy centers absorb unresolved trauma and create a negative reaction in our bodies. The more we hold on to the trauma, the more our bodies are filled with stress and tension. TAT engages the meridians, the seat of the body’s healthy reactions and replaces the traumatic messages with the most important information for the survivor, that the trauma happened long ago, is over and the person is now okay. But this is okay, not in the sense that there is no pain or reason to focus on the trauma but that the person is out of the trauma, is not still endanger because of it. But can feel themselves free from that situation and free to create a different kind of life based on the reality of what is happening right now, not what already happened in the past.

This was crucial information to me. It’s not that I had not known that concept before but no matter how many times I told myself that, I still felt like I was sitting or standing or lying in the middle of the trauma with no way to escape. But working with TAT, I found myself out of the trauma experience. Sometimes I was sitting alone in the room, sometimes dancing with myself or others, sometimes laughing and joking with people who had before been my tormenters.

For the first few sessions, I felt complete release. My body had never felt so good. I was relaxed, peace, had so much more energy, and was more social. People who saw me said I looked as though I had just woken up from a long nap and was refreshed.

But I would not be telling the whole story if I did not add this next piece. After the first 3 or 4 weeks, the work became harder and I was dragging myself through my past traumas with less ease. But and this is very important, with the same kind of equanimity that I had discovered during the first few sessions. I could feel more of the pain of the trauma but I felt it through a veil of healing. I knew it was leaving my body and I knew new layers of trauma were coming up but I was not reliving the trauma. Rather I was releasing the trauma and through that release, I was discovering different parts of myself that I did not know were there or rediscovering parts that I hadn’t had access to for many years.

Between sessions I tracked my progress. There was always some positive change even if I also had more memories or more experiences of different traumas than the one I was working on. But the positive changes didn’t leave even when something new was coming up. I maintained the work I did in the office and added to it both during the week and at the next session. I paid very close attention to what I was feeling, thinking, doing. How high my level of stress was. How much I wanted to be with people, or be alone. I tend to want to be alone so I paid attention to when that was intensified and when I was able to be more social.

The biggest piece of trauma that I worked on was a car accident that happened when I was five. I had three serious injuries and was incapacitated, in bed for 4 months. In doing this work, I connected pains in my head, leg, and shoulder and back with injuries I had received from this accident. Some of them were obvious but I had not connected them. Some were not obvious at all and I was stunned at how long I had been carrying this pain with me. As I focused my attention on each part of the trauma, my body released the trauma and breathed life into itself.

Besides the dimension of working with trauma that actually happened in my life, we also worked on the trauma that happened to my ancestors and to me in other gilgulim. I had done a lot of work about my family and my own past lives but this work got to the heart of the issues-how the traumas of my family affected them and also affected me through them.

There is one thing I would caution you about. It is crucial to be willing to change, to be willing to let go and have your life become more natural and comfortable. All of us can get used to the affects of the trauma and assume that a physical pain or emotional pattern will be with us always. The pain of the trauma has to be more severe than the fear of letting the trauma go. We have to be willing to go through some pain to let go of the pain. One of the wonderful things about TAT is that it does not require us to relive the trauma in order to heal. We may experience some discomfort and some

fear but it passes quickly and easily. TAT makes room in our bodies for the natural body/psychic rhythms to take over.

One year after my treatment sessions TAT

of my Physical and Mental Abuse

I started my treatments with Eliezer Spetter over a year and a half ago.

I needed to treat traumas and difficulties of which I never dreamed that I would be able to release (after trying other types of treatment as well).

Today, thank G-d, after seeing how TAT has helped me become stable and relaxed, I can stay with this remarkable technique that G-d enabled me to find.

I now experience feelings of release and the disconnection from the traumas that haunted me day and night which hopefully will never come back. I feel free

The most worthwhile and profitable gift that I can have imagined for myself is life after TAT – throwing away all of the waste and garbage that separate us from the wonderful life that G-d has given us.

I do not regret one shekel spent on these treatments, and I spent hundreds, if not thousands, of shekels.

If you have heard about TAT, do not forfeit the opportunity to liberate yourself.

Back Pain, Hand Pain and Physical and Mental Abuse

“I suffered terribly from strong back pain and hand pain. Regarding the hand pain, I was told that there was no chance that the hand would recover; the hand barely functioned. In an X-ray, slipped discs were found and other problems showed up in a CAT scan.

During EFT and TAT treatments with Eliezer Spetter, the pain disappeared almost entirely and the hand resumed functioning. It appears that there is a powerful connection between a person’s physical feeling and his emotional state. I came for treatment because of a personal trauma that I had recently experienced; the trauma was very difficult and I received immense help from the Eliezer Spetter’s unique treatments. My childhood trauma was that of my mother not loving me. After that, between the ages of seven and twelve, I suffered severe physical and mental abuse (I was not raped). The treatments freed me from this trauma as well.

Recently, I experienced a family trauma concerning my husband, a very difficult situation of domestic discord not found normally in a family.

This was a really exceptional problem that I could not discuss, and anyone hearing about it would think it was imaginary, not real. Eliezer’s treatment helped me get back on my feet when I was feeling helpless and afraid. I had been in a terrible state, barely functioning.

Today I am functioning, as is my hand, the one on which that the doctors gave up. I hope that through another few treatments my hand will function fully. I warmly recommend these treatment methods to anyone interested.”

Rape

“How can I cope with people who share my unpleasant past? How can I cope with seeing them? How can I not avoid the area? How can I not be hurt by their behavior around me? Through and during the treatment, I had several encounters; initially, I went into total shock; I didn’t know what to do, where to turn. During the treatment, I learned to face up to people who were unpleasant to be with. For me, that was a victory, because I didn’t run away. I stood my ground. Previously, I could not even speak, but I learned to keep this person away from me, without the whole thing becoming a nuisance. Thank you.”

Physical and Mental Abuse

“Not a day passed in which I didn’t see in my mind’s eye the terrible experiences of physical and mental abuse I experienced. During my last NLP treatment this simply disappeared, and I am able now to live a normal life.

There is a well-know saying of our sages, “G-d provides the solution before the problem”, and I have merited seeing the truth in this with my own eyes. G-d has provided the world with TAT through R. Eliezer, who has helped and saved many people, including my husband and myself.

There are no words to describe our appreciation to you for all your hours and efforts, which saved our lives and our souls.

After the horrible and appalling trauma that continued for 13 years, in which a family member abused me in unspeakable ways. After my marriage, thank G-d, my eyes were opened, and I understood the truth about these unspeakable things that had been withheld from me for 13 years. At that moment a darkness fell upon me, and I felt that I couldn’t continue living after having experienced such physical and emotional traumas, and which are prohibited by the Torah.

G-d, in His infinite mercy and kindness, did not abandon me and I wandered from counselor to counselor and from therapist to therapist, but everything remained the same. I reached despair and total depression but G-d had pity on me, and made me aware of a special therapist, a humble and unassuming person, who lives in pure faith that he is a tool of the Almighty’s, put in this world to help and heal souls among the people of Israel. R. Eliezer Spetter, recommended by worthy and G-d-fearing rabbis, does wonders in healing body and soul for any Jew who needs him.

When I first came to Eliezer I was weak and despairing, full of anger and a desire to take revenge on my whole family. I lived every moment with intense and terrible feelings, together with the bitter traumas that never left me. I very much wanted to become free of the past, of everything in every sense, and to begin life anew. With G-d’s help, R. Eliezer was able to provide solace. It’s unbelievable, but today, thank G-d, after a year of therapy, I live my life in equanimity and self-confidence, strong and independent, empowered, forgiving of the past. Thank G-d, I strive only to move forward in the total belief that everything that happened was decreed by heaven, and that G-d will give me strength to continue doing holy work to His satisfaction in every way. Therefore, Eliezer, you have been a good servant of G-d, saving me in body and soul and for future generations; all the mental, physical and emotional changes I underwent throughout the year of therapy have affected not only me and my husband, but all those around me.

My energy has been changed, and a new life has unfolded before me – it seems like a miracle from above! Therefore I warmly recommend R. Eliezer, who is a worthy messenger from G-d, who aids all in need of help and healing of the soul, which in turn heals the body. With G-d’s help, you can also achieve a new and improved life in every sense, and thus serve Him and do His work whole-heartedly.

Those who seek treatment should not forget that they must be fully committed and desirous of change, and should not be afraid of changing.

Eliezer, it is said that if one saves one person it is as if one saved the entire world. With a heart overflowing with appreciation and many thanks, and blessings that your work bears fruit and brings satisfaction to our Father in heaven, and that G-d’s grace be with you always. The _______ Family

Dear Rav Eliezer Spetter,

I approached you after many years of emotional, social and family difficulties, all due to a troubled childhood. At that stage I felt that it would be better if I were dead.

After trying different methods, including psychology, I did not believe that there was anything that could help me easily or quickly.

The main thing that I liked about TAT is that there was no need to talk about the past, and the treatment worked anyway.

Today, after only twelve treatments, I feel that I have succeeded in separating the facts and traumas of my past from the feelings. I am now able to function on a day-to-day basis without having to deal with the stormy emotions that accompanied me until I began the treatment.

I would like to thank you for being a true and faithful emissary, for the devoted and caring treatment, and for your great efforts that enabled me to feel comfortable and safe.

There are no words to express my wishes to you, but that you continue to help all those who are needy, and the G-d pay your true reward.

Gratefully yours,

I Was Molested Over a Period of Four Years

Dear Eliezer Spetter,

Thank you for your tremendous help with my trauma.

When I was a young child I was molested over a period of four years, and for twenty-four years, I lived in fear, detached from the world and my surroundings. I did not believe that I could heal from this.

With your help, I am now able to begin living.

I often see the person who hurt me, and in the past I would get frightened and tense up. After several sessions I feel much better. I see this person and feel nothing.

You have helped me put the past where it belongs so that I can live in the present and have a hopeful future.

I cannot thank you enough.

Sexual, physical and mental abuse that I suffered from my father

Dear Eliezer.

Thank you very much for the excellent, professional treatments .

When I realized I needed to find a treatment for myself, I was looking for something that would help me get out of the rut I was in, but would not force me to re-experience everything that had happened, and that would give me the strength to properly take care of my children.

Rabbanit Naomi Shapiro recommended TAT, while Rabbanit Levanon had once discussed the technique with me.

The main problem was domestic peace – shlom bayit – especially when I was physically weak: during pregnancy and postpartum. I felt that my husband did not understand me, he was unapproachable and disappointed in me. But the biggest problem, the one that I was afraid treat was the sexual, physical and mental abuse that I suffered from my father, a very complex affair that affected my life more than I realized.

What motivated me to seek help were difficulties that came up with my three year old son who was diagnosed with a developmental delay: he did not talk, would salivate, had motoric difficulties in his hands, and required physical therapy for his clumsiness, occupational therapy, and speech therapy . He found it difficult to go to kindergarten and to become toilet trained.

I was very surprised and troubled my all these, and began to become confused and All this is very surprising to me and weighed me as a mother. I became confused and depressed.

And there were other, various issues which shocked, confused and frightened me, and they awoke all of my repressed problems.

Another cause of trouble was the death of my sister in a car accident during when I was young and which had stayed with me an unresolved trauma throughout my life.

Exactly one year ago, I was cured by Eliezer, who I regard as a messenger from God. My life has changed and greatly improved. I’m happier, relaxed and more at ease, and am amazed that there was something that could help me.

I came to the TAT workshops so I could learn how to continue to treat myself, my dear husband, my sweet children, and others who may have difficulties . I found my calling . I had searched far and wide to find satisfying work whereby I could help others, and thank God, through you, I found it .

I had a strong urge to touch women

I had a serious problem for many years: I had a strong urge to travel on buses and touch women. No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get rid of the urge – I felt really bad with it and thought that there was no solution to my problem until I met you. The treatment that I did with you simply cut me off from the problem and I wasn’t attracted to them anymore. When I get on a bus nowadays, I’ll sit wherever there is an available seat . I don’t think about it – it’s all disappeared and has no effect on me. Regarding my relationship with my wife: she had no idea about my problem, but I can truthfully say that the treatment had an effect on our relationship: I am with her more, belong to her more – I came home.

I would drink a bottle of wine or half a bottle of whiskey every day

 Dear Eliezer, and to everyone who reads these lines!

 I had two serious problems when I came to Eliezer’s treatment – drinking alcohol and sleeping.

 It took not too long (less than 15 treatments) to solve my alcohol problem (I would drink a bottle of wine or half a bottle of whiskey every day). I stopped drinking completely and don’t want to drink any more. I can be with people who are drinking and I have absolutely no urge to drink!

 The truth is that I never dreamed that I could solve the second problem, since for over twenty years I had been in the habit of going to sleep after midnight, –even if I had to get up at 5.00 a.m. the next morning.

 We solved the second problem as well. After not too many treatments I go to sleep every night at day to sleep at 10.00. I don’t remember doing this since I was in school.

 Thank G-d, you helped me a lot, and I thank you with all my heart!

I was Addicted to Drugs and Alcohol

For four years, I was addicted to drugs and alcohol. I also damaged myself by taking an overdose of drugs.

I came to drugs and alcohol because I wanted to forget the problems at home where I received a lot of punishments through beating because of my parents’ anger. This, of course, also caused me to be angry with them.

I came to Eliezer Spetter and found the kind of help that I could never have imagined existed before. Previously, I fell off the wagon each time I managed to leave the drugs.

During the treatment that I receive with TAT, Eliezer kept on looking and digging to get to the root of my addiction. We worked for several months until we were sure that nothing was left. He checked me over and over and over again.

Now I am learning and working hard, back in normal life. I feel great and strong and I feel no attraction to drugs or alcohol. I feel clean.

Thanks Eliezer.

I needed not only my wife..

Eliezer, my dear brother,

I’m so glad I met you!

You are amazing and you have made me a healthier person.

So that others can understand how you have helped me become this healthier person and what this means, I will talk about myself and my sickness. I am ultra-orthodox and have led an ultra-orthodox lifestyle all my life. I have been married to the most amazing woman in the world for six and a half years. I’m the father of three sweet girls. I have a bachelor’s degree, am an army graduate, and have a nice job in a nice workplace.

About three months after the wedding, I began to think of other women besides my wife. I did not attribute any significance to this because we all have hormones, so it seemed normal to me. In short, I began to fantasize, listened to things and simply indulged myself in talking to others, men and women alike.

At some point, every time I had sexual relations with my wife I needed to fantasize about more …

I shared it with her and she hurt quite a bit throughout this period.

I got to the point where I needed not only my wife, but other women, men, transgenders and everything else you can or cannot imagine. I was in this state even though I truly loved her. Since I really love and respect her, I felt that had to share it with her  – so she was forever getting hurt.

I owe her a lot for staying with me! I have no idea what caused this condition and why, but I was in a bad state. Because of the fear of consulting someone and taking care of things, I told myself deep inside (and my wife) that I was okay, that everything was good and that it was normal. Yet in reality I was burning up inside. I imagined myself burning away my whole life because of my lust. Every time I saw porn, corresponded with someone – male or female – ate out at a bar, I physically felt the hurt in my relationship with myself, my wife, and my children.

I’m not sure what made me agree to meet Eliezer, and why I did, in fact, agree to meet him, but I am convinced that my life changed from the moment I met him.

Yes, I cried during the first two or three sessions. Yes, I thought about things I preferred not to think of. Yes, today I am still the same person just a little better. Yes, I have sexual relations my wife and they are much better.

My healing took just about eight sessions. As far as I’m concerned, this is the best investment I’ve ever made.

I hope that what I have written will help someone else somewhere in the world. If it would help, I would be more than happy to speak to that person directly.

I suffered from negative forbidden thoughts

Dear Chava,

The truth is that words cannot express mental salvation.

I suffered strange and forbidden negative thoughts for many, many years and which became more frequent as time went on. It was hard to believe that I could be saved from them, and I was scared that, G-d forbid, they would get even worse.

With the help of the merciful G-d and through the journey that I experienced with you and TAT, I slowly found that of most of my troubles stemmed from lack of belief in G-d and His unconditional love for me. I lacked the trust that He bestows only good, and needed to realize that He gives unconditionally, that I need to accept myself without judging each and every thing that I do and not feel guilty for everything step that I make.

Reinforcement through TAT helped me integrate the positive thoughts in my subconscious so that the small rays of light were able to extinguish the darkness within. Consequently, I was able to see myself and my surroundings in a more loving and less judgmental manner, which also helped relaxed me and enabled me to allow His everlasting love fill me…

Thank you so much Hashem, and thank you Chava

I was born from the new

Dear Chava,

Thank you! Thank you so much for everything, for the healing, for the release from the past, for the traumas, the stresses and the things that I myself did not know I had carried with me from childhood. Thank you for believing in me, that you did not give up on me even when I had already given up on myself. Thank you for seeing me healed from everything even when I thought there was no chance and I was going crazy. Thank you!

The method in TAT has helped me miraculously. I tried a lot of methods – from psychology, one brain, three dimensions, coaching, etc … and the TAT really managed to help me and my body heal itself, and get rid of the internal wars. I felt how after each treatment I was lighter and how the same thing that really bothered me weakened and even disappeared completely. Thank you for the support and help beyond your working hours and beyond the treatment time, always available by phone and in messages to give encouragement and support when needed. There were things I was sure I alone deal with and secrets and traumas I kept to myself from a young age and I was very afraid to tell and open up to others, I was afraid of being hurt, that they would not understand me, that only I was weird and that no one coped like me, but I found out. The TAT method can really cure things I never thought I would get rid of. I believe that a person has two births in life – a physical birth (when we came into the world from our mother’s womb) and a spiritual / personal birth (which we do ourselves), so happy that I went through it with you Chava, and really feel I was born from the new, I am just another human, his, happy And calmer. As soon as I was mentally free from those precipitations automatically the body started to feel better and I even lost weight. During the treatment I also learned to know myself better, the forces within me and what is important to me in life, the fears and habits I practiced and adopted them from a young age were released from me and I was able to really listen to myself and act freely without things and fears that hold me back.

Again, thank you for guiding learning and helping me and my body heal itself, thank you for being a good messenger to help me in this time and in everyone’s life.

Loves and appreciates
