Our son Chad was on Ritalin for 6 years. Like many parents I only gave him the Ritalin while he was at school and never at home not even when he was on summer brake. The drug scared me and the only reason I did give it to him was because the schools at that time had the authority to demand it, and it seemed every year his teacher would ask that his dosage be raised. I was frustrated because Chad was never hyper at home. Chad has a genetic disorder called Fragile X Syndrome; dificulty focussing is an effect of having this disorder due to the fact that the brain has a hard time unscrambling what it takes in. Therefore a lot of activity like what you would find at a store or a classroom can be overwhelming for Chad causing him to become edgy, and sitting still and doing an assignment was impossible for him. I was left with no choice but to get him on Ritalin. The schools Chad went to were very cooperative, I asked that he not do any physical activity such as swiming or recess until an hour and a half after taking this drug (ritalin is bad for the heart, Chads blood pressure would skyrocket when he got active) and the teachers complied with my wishes. However this drug remained a concern for me. I seen and read articles about how children were having heart attacks while on this drug, so the last time one of his teachers said she thought the dosage needed to be raised, I not only told her that was not an option, I started doing more and more research to find something less dangeraous, that still helped Chad focus like the ritalin did. I didnt discover (your company) until about a year later, how I missed it through all my searches I dont know but once I found this site and read about focus for children, I ordered it right away. I made a copy of all the information on it and gave a copy to Chads teacher and together we were going to see if this could work for Chad. That week Chad got a student of the week certificate, and the week after that, and the week after that as well. Not to brag, but Chad also got student of the week often while on ritalin as well. But this was proof that Focus worked! Talk about relieved. Every parent out there reading this please, for your child and for your own peace of mind, just try it. Now on the bottle it says to take a certain amount of drops (as many as your childs age) Chad was 13 years old taking 13 drops with a small amount of juice in the morning, and it lasted all day. However that same year he gained a substancial amount of weight, he grew out as well as up. One day I got a call from his teacher wondering if we were out of the focus because Chad seemed to be losing focus and seemed kinda ancy. I thought about it, and it didnt make sense because the only time Chad ever had ants in his pants was when Christmas or Summer Break got close, then it hit me that his weight gain may have something to do with it, so I upped it to 18 drops. Chads teacher was aware that I planned to increase the dosage and called that following Monday evening and told me Chad was back to normal. So there you have it focus works for our son, and one bottle last Chad a long time because he only takes it on school days and only one time per day so therefore it is also very affordable as well. I hope our story has been some help, take care and God Bless. Fran and Jeff Scott, Michigan

'Our 6 year old, Wilf, was diagnosed with Asperger's a year ago today. Since starting him on a combination of Tantrum tamer, serenite, focus, brightspark, mindsoothe & pure calm, he's amenable, settles well (previously this took upto 2 hours with lots of stress) at night,
listens to us & is far less obsessive & agressive & easier to reach. Wilf loves taking his remedies & even asks for them if we've forgotten-it's as if his body knows what he needs. He's started making progress at school & our whole family is much calmer & happier as a result & can see a bright future ahead. Many many thanks'
Justine, Derbyshire UK

'I have to compliment you on your service, I am very very impressed!!

Thank you once again and have a wonderful day. Kind Regards' Natasha

"I am 63 and from the day I retired at age 55 I have suffered from osteo-arthritis.My medication would have to be doubled to ease the pain at present, instead I spoke to my friends wife, who is a Clinical Psychologist, Michele Carelse. Michele recommended Joint Ease Plus. After 3 - 5 weeks there was a difference. Now my joints feel stronger and I have less pain. Thank You." Vincent Thomas

'I have had a weight problem my whole life. No matter how hard I excerised or how little I ate I just could not lose the weight.

'Thanks so much for your quick response. I’m anxious to get him started on this. We can tell a big difference in him since we started him on the Mind Soothe Jr. and the Focus. We were at a family gathering over the 4^th of July and several of my relatives commented on how much he’s calmed down since Christmas, which was when he started taking your products. We’re hoping that adding the BrightSpark will help him even more. You’ve been an answer to prayer. I’m passing the word on to others who are searching for alternatives to prescription drugs for their kids. Thanks again and have a blessed day.' Kathy

'I HAVE REALLY NOTICED A DIFFERENCE IN MY CHILD. HE IS 8 YRS. OLD AND HAD A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH ATTENTION IN THE CLASSROOM. HE HAS BEEN ON IT FOR 3 MONTHS AND THE TEACHERS ARE REPORTING MUCH BETTER BEHAVIOR. HIS ATTENTION SPAN HAS INCREASED GREATLY. WE DON'T RECEIVE DAILY CALLS THAT HE IS MISBEHAVING IN CLASS ANYMORE.' Danette A

'I wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your products Immunity Plus and UTI Clear. I was having a frustrating time with bladder infections that were very selective in their symptoms and only partially cured by antibiotics. I did not have typical symptoms of frequency and pain on urination. I had dull pains in my lower back and sometimes blood in my urine (sometimes not) but no other systems. The doctors said the
urinalysis was inconclusive for bacteria but that I had an elevated white blood count, which signaled an infection. But doctors were puzzled by what antibiotic to prescribe.  The antibiotics they did subscribe were somewhat slow to work and symptoms often returned in a couple of weeks.

I have also tried other natural remedies with some success, like drinking cranberry juice and taking vitamin C, but nothing has worked for me so well as UTI and Immunity Plus.

I take only a small dosage every day (about 5 drops of each) in water and I am completely symptom free.   To illustrate the point, I ran out of the treatment and for about 6 months I was still completely healthy. In fact, when I started to get symptoms again (vague cramps in my lower back) it took me awhile to associate it with my history.   My doctor checked my kidneys which were fine and I had no noticeable blood in my urine, but these issues always follow on the heels of my menstrual cycle.   This often masks my symptoms because I write them off to menstrual cramps -- until they become much worse.

However, I reordered my products UTI and Immunity Plus and within a day of recommended treatment (three times daily) I was symptom free again. What can I say? It works for me. Thank you very much.

Immunity Plus works even better. I almost never have colds. If I start to feel rundown (I have a very stressful job) or I am around people who are sick, I increase the dosage to the recommended three times a day. It really works.' Lisa M.

'I am currently taking Mind Soothe and Nerve Tonic, which are helping me. I really see and feel a positive, noticeable difference with my anxiety and obsessive thoughts. I am so grateful for finding this site and your wonderful- all natural and safe products. I've always been one to avoid meds if I could. Off all of the natural remedies I've tried- this is the first one that I can see a difference for the better with- especially with my racing, scary, unwanted thoughts.' Marylin R.

'After the death of my mother this spring, my doctor put me on Ambien for my sleepless nights. I tried taking myself off of it, but was unsuccessful. I had become addicted to the Ambien. I began researching different products to help me wean off the Ambien and chose to follow the regimen on your website for the Serenite capsules and MindSoothe combination. I successfully weaned myself off the Ambien immediately thanks to your products. The Serenite capsules are absolutely wonderful! Because of the emotional stress my mother's death caused me, I definitely did need the MindSoothe to work in conjunction with the Serenite. I had bought three bottles of each one from you and was prepared to have to take them until September before I figured I
would notice any results and much to my surprise, after just three weeks of using those products as directed, I have been able to stop taking all of them. I still have two bottles of each left, but I intend to keep them on hand for any future sleepless nights or stressors that may occur. Thank you so much for your products - I have been recommending them to others.' Laurie K

'We love Focus. It has helped our son's ADHD just enough to help him in school, and yet still allows him to be himself instead of the zombie side effects from the pills. thank you' Lisa

'Thank you very much for your thoughtful and detailed response. I was not sure what to expect from this counseling but the feedback you have provided so far has certainly been thought provoking. It also touches upon issues and questions I have dwelled on before but put to the back of my mind in an effort to ignore possible problems and just "get on with things'. Naomi, South Africa

'I'd like to say that my son just turned 7 years old yesterday and has been taking BrightSpark for two years and with a combination of Karate class, he was the most brighter student on his classroom this year. His school aplayed the"NOVA" test which is a test to test the student abilities and inteligence level required by the federal Government on Public Schools and his score in reading, writting and spelling came out above the normal of all first grades students in the USA public schools.' Vilma

“Wonderful product! I believe that I have had thyroid trouble for the last 4 years, although Doctor's have said that my blood test were normal.... I have all the symptoms of thyroid trouble, but doctors would say it's just panic attacks....sorry but you can't have panic attacks all that time....Any way since taking this wonderful product (Thyroid Assist) I feel so much better. Thank you.” – Sian, Ontario, Canada

“My 11 year old daughter had been on Concerta for 4 years. I had been researching herbal remedies for years but was skeptical about their effectiveness. Recently, our insurance changed and the cost of her medication went up $35 a month, so again, I started looking into the herbal remedies and came upon the Native Remedies website. We decided that we would try her on the Focus ADHD Remedy. I sent her teacher an email advising her of what we were going to try and sent her the website also so she would be able to read up on everything and been a bit informed about what exactly it was, that my daughter would be taking. I can say that I am TOTALLY amazed and her teacher is as well!! She can tell the difference in her concentration level and attention span also!! IS THAT NOT THE GREATEST??????? Even if for some crazy reason, insurance would cover the cost of her meds again - it wouldn't matter one bit. I'd pay for the Focus over the meds ANYDAY!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!” – Suzanne, IN, USA

“I had a very resistant ongoing UTI infection, stemming from candida (yeast) overgrowth. It got so painful, it was keeping me in bed double over with hot water bottles, and I should have been on really serious pain relief! I used the UTI-Clear, within 3 days, I went off the pain relief meds (over the counter), VERY VERY impressive herbal tincture. Of course, you need to drink a huge volume of liquid that's a must to clear the bladder. I am sure the combination of high liquid and this powerful herbal mix is the key. I take it also when I sense a UTI coming on, and it remains flowing, and my bladder works well. I stand by it 100%.” – Shari, CA, USA

'I would just like to thank you for the work that you do and for doing it so well. After years of ineffective counselling I finally feel like I am getting somewhere because I can actually express things and that is because you are so good at what you do.' K, USA

Jeanne, South Africa - Finally, I flew to Jo-burg and back this weekend and had almost no anxiety about the trip. All your advise really helped, as I confirmed it with myself before the flights, and did not even suffer the initial stages of anxiety when the plane took off. It was an enlightening experience, thank you for giving me the tools! Jeanne, South Africa

If you are looking at this page thank your lucky stars you have arrived here. I came across it by chance at a point where I was at a low ebb in my life. Michele has been an absolute Godsend. She is so intuitive and understands your problems and gently points you in the right direction to enable you to discover why they exist for yourself. I would recommend anyone to consult with Michele and wish everyone a speedy recovery. Once again - Thanks Michele' Trev, UK

I have been taking the mind soothe and it has really helped to take away the nervousness that i sometimes feel. Thank you for your help in this area of my life. I realise that I have been feeding my anxiety and somehow i need to stop feeding it and find something new to focus on. Melanie, South Africa

'Thank you so very much for your understanding, help and guidance. Take care, God bless and keep doing your good work!' Charlene, South Africa

'Thank you for helping me Michelle. After my mother died I thought I would never survive. My life is different now and even though I miss her still, I find that I have made friends and that I am coming to know myself in a new way. I like it that I can always come back to you when I hit a bump!' Gill, US

'My daughter used your StudyPlus natural study aid through her matric year. She still writes to me from university to ask me to send it because she says that it helps her to concentrate and focus on her work' Beatrix, South Africa

'I spent more than 3 hours a day surfing the porn sites and was on the point of being dismissed from my job. Counseling helped me to change my life in a positive way so that I could break the habit that was ruining my life. Now I wish Michele would help me to find a girlfriend!' Peter, UK

'Thank you so much for your advice. What you said to me makes perfect sense and I am going to try really hard to 'stop feeding my insecurities'. I would really like to have another session or as many as is necessary. ....... I desparately want to try and resolve my problems as I really don't want to ruin what I have now - I have done that too often in the past. After your email I felt positive for the first time in ages and really believe this time I may resolve this for good.' Karen, South Africa

'I would like to continue to consult with you on a regular basis because I value your insight very highly and you have helped me to find a way to cope with and get on top of depression which is possibly the single most valuable achievement of my life. You have taught me a different way of thinking and
that I believe is the key.' Gail, South Africa

'I have only just begun my online counseling for my anxieties with Michele, but I have found so much comfort in being able to talk to someone who is so knowledgeable and nonjudgmental. Responses to my emails are always timely and uplifting. I recommend this service without reservation.' Melissa, USA

'I would like to thank Michele for her swift and understanding replies to my queries. Even just the two which I received helped me to further understand my particular situation as seen not only from
'outside' but from an extremely experienced opinion. This system of counseling is a bonus in many ways but I feel the added sense of privacy and speed of response is a real advantage. There is something to be said for actual one to one communication but I don't feel the overall advise would actually be any different. The reason to physically see someone is more about the actual comfort and assurance experienced when in the company of a professional rather than the actual advise they give. In my particular instance advise was all I required, and it was delivered extremely well. Thank You. David' David, UK

'I have seen several different types of counselors over the years and no one was ever able to help me as much as Michele. I feel that on line counseling is the best way to go, at least for me. With Michele, I felt that she was only an email away to give me support and advise. I was able to express my feelings and concerns 24 hours a day. I didn't have to wait for an appointment and then try and squeeze everything I needed to say in an hour. Michele has given me strength and peace within myself. I am sorry that I am well because I miss our conversations.' Helen, USA

'Before I decided to start counseling with Michelle my life was a mess! She helped me step by step without losing patience and she never ever gave up on me - even when I had almost given up on myself!' Evelyn, USA

'Michele has a sense of humor! She can make me laugh even when I feel down and then I can see the brighter side again. I always feel like I know her more than a counselor. She is always there for me in my hour of need! 'Susan

'If you are thinking about Online Counseling, don't hesitate! This service is the best thing I could have asked for' Ann, South Africa

'I can recommend the BrightSpark remedy to any parent who has a child with ADHD. My son's teacher could see the difference and Michele's advise about how to manage my son helped tremendously!' Brenda, USA

'I can not tell you how much writing to you has helped me!! When I write what I feel, my fingers just flow across the keyboard and most times I am unaware of what I say. It is like being in some sort of meditation or something. It feels good!!! ' Andrea, USA

'It helped me to write about my problems without worrying about what someone else would think. I could be very honest and ask everything I needed.' Stuart, South Africa

I look forward to the newsletter - it always lifts my spirits and helps me to learn something new! I have been consulting Michele off and on for more than a year as a single dad with 3 girls. Whenever I hit a bump, she is there to help. My eldest is going through her teenage years and I don't think I could have coped without the lifeline of Feelgood Counseling! Michele really keeps me sane! Fred, South Africa
