Relationships, Anxiety, Confidence & Happiness
“I want to thank you Colin for the immeasurable impact you have had on my life. I never could imagine living with such joy and freedom. What I had accepted as normal with persistent anxiety and the sense that I was living in my own personal prison of stress and fear, is now completely gone.
I feel that the childhood trauma that had taken me to that place has no impact on me whatsoever and for the first time I am free to be fearless, at peace and to truly explore my potential and live life for the first time ever.
You have saved and enriched my marriage, you have allowed me to be a peaceful, present mother and a truly engaged friend. I feel like I am emotionally connecting with others and the world for the first time. You have also helped me overcome great physical challenges with my health which I believe were closely related to stress and emotional factors.
I honestly feel reborn after years of seeking help from psychologists, doctors and naturopaths and will never be able to thank you enough! I wish everyone had access to what you offer- true, complete healing on the deepest subconscious levels. You have given me effective tools for dealing with the challenges I face daily. I believe you are a gift from God and I will be forever grateful!” Estelle (Townsville)
“I had seen a few psychologists for just over 12 months for Relationship issues and some Career counselling. I found it a little helpful but didn’t see any real changes within myself.
A friend recommended me to Colin at the Optimal Wellness Clinic at this time as I had persistent anxiety for over 18 months and was quite stressed in my job. After only 3 months I now find myself with renewed confidence, I feel better about myself and have an awareness of who I am as a person. Colin helped me to be relaxed and confident in my job and released the Anxiety I had for the previous 18 months.
He gave me the encouragement and motivation to reach
Post Natal Anxiety & Panic Attacks
After suffering postnatal anxiety and panic attacks weeks after the delivery of my fourth child I was referred to Wendy and Colin at Optimal Wellness and I couldn’t be more grateful.
I had a bad experience with the anti-anxiety drugs that I was prescribed by my GP but with Wendy’s guidance and ongoing
I have a stronger character and I am making plans for my future that I always knew I wanted but didn’t know where to begin. I feel like my life has kick started again and it’s exciting because the future is so much easier with the support and encouragement of Wendy and Colin.

This Program Changed my Life
Testimonial – Born Rich Life Coaching Program
Born Rich is not about making money, although it can be if that’s what you want, it is about the potential “richness” you were born with – as a person with endless possibilities. It sounds
I came to Colin looking for respite from panic attacks, high levels of anxiety and general dissatisfaction with what life I was living. I had a lot of trouble socially, I found it difficult to find peace in everyday life. I came to Colin with the words “I need a change – a big one” and he gave it to me through this program.
Colin taught me how to use EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) to manage the obstacles in life. I was able to detach from the emotions holding me back. I now experience calm and a new level of awareness about myself that I never thought possible.
I have learnt skills I can take into any situation and understand myself on a deep level – I now know how to get out of my own way.
The outcomes are difficult to quantify (how do you measure true happiness)… but,

A Very Big Shift in my Business
Recently I was fortunate enough to complete a course with Colin ‘Mission in Commission’.
Working in a very demanding industry Real Estate had almost worn me down. Having been successful in different periods over the last six years was wonderful however when the“GFC” hit the industry turned and this became very draining on me physically and mentally.
When I commenced the course I struggled with the concepts and found it hard to adjust my way of thinking and
Although this is only the beginning of the new me, I have found that things are becoming easier in business and the small things that used to worry me no longer do as I know that with this new focus and attitude I will be very successful. Already with this

Phobia and Panic Attacks
I had a phobia of vomiting and panic attacks for about 18 months. I could not sleep through the night, I would have to stop driving because I thought I was going to vomit, I always had a bucket beside my bed and would often wake during the night.
I was not eating a lot as I was fearful of food poisoning. I had tried a few

I felt a 70% improvement after the very first session however the third session was where I gained the most confidence that this was really going to work and be permanent.

Since having EFT with Colin I’m more than excited about the opportunity to engage in the general public and look forward to meeting new and interesting people, who now say I’m friendly and outgoing.

Hyperactive Thyroid
I was diagnosed with a Hyperactive Thyroid even though I am a health conscious woman in my early 30’s, and was quite devastated to hear that I had a health problem!!! I questioned and tried to express my fears and concerns regarding this new dis-ease in my life, and the sweet Doctor ever so kindly patted my
knee, and told me not to worry about it.
I would just have to take artificial hormones –

The rest is history. I worked with Wendy to change my diet, remineralise my body with Colloidal Minerals, support my endocrine system with Herbal Hormone support, stabilise my hormonally challenged thyroid with a Herbal Hormone balancing cream and rid my intestines of parasites!!
Just 3 months later my Doctor (a new one – who believes in making room for alternative therapies) made my day by saying I have a completely NORMAL thyroid.

Stress and Anxiety - now Comfort and Wellbeing
I have written a few words as a testimonial to the effectiveness of your treatment for stress and anxiety.
Early this year I was at a crisis point in my life. I had recently moved to Townsville to join a local company in a new role and was experiencing a great deal of stress and anxiety at work. The stress and strain
I was introduced to Wendy’s work through Colin, my Yoga Chi Gung teacher and also through my Naturopath who prescribed a visit to help alleviate symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Within minutes of meeting
released.
Sometimes I was fully aware of where these feelings related to; at other times I was not. Either way, it did not seem to matter because immediately after my first EFT session and then cumulatively over the
following weeks I found that I was living with a noticeably lower level of stress and anxiety. There was a greater sense of ease in my relationships with colleagues at work and with family members at home.
On my second visit, Wendy undertook a course of muscle testing to identify and correct any nonfunctioning muscles. Immediately after this
than before. Combined with my ongoing practice of Yoga Chi Gung, the two EFT treatments have made a lasting and profound difference to my sense of comfort and well-being.
I am very appreciative of the help that I received from both Colin and Wendy and would certainly recommend Yoga Chi Gung and EFT to anybody who wanted to improve their health and peace of mind.

I booked in to see Colin in a terrible state. He worked on all of the above issues with EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) and got the intensity down of each issue from as high as 8 down to zero (0 to 10 scale, 10 being worst).
After I went home I went to bed and slept for seven hours straight, and woke up the next morning feeling a whole lot better. I had no shakiness or anxiety, and it was a huge weight off my shoulders.

Negative Baggage
“Kinesiology has had a powerful effect on my life. I first came to Wendy hoping that Kinesiology would help me recharge my batteries prior to my pursuit of a new career and life path. There was at this time an incredible amount of useless negative baggage, which I was carrying around and allowing to sabotage my success. You helped me dispel the more powerful of these negative self-images.

Lost in the Woods

Colin was a tower of strength at times especially when I had no answers to things happening to me; it has been a tough road back to normality but I am stronger and more equipped to deal with life’s problems more than I ever imagined I would be; due to Colin’s awareness guidance and training.
It has seen me through to a much brighter future. My most sincere thanks go out to Colin and the Optimal Wellness Clinic for his guidance and friendship.

Saw "The Secret' but never knew how to apply it
I was feeling depressed, anxious and highly stressed, and things were really getting on top of me. Since working with Colin at the Optimal Wellness Clinic I am now calmer, more focused and deal more easily with issues as they come up. I am not finding life as overwhelming as I am dealing with things a lot better.
I am more hopeful for the future and I am building confidence. I am starting to understand how the mind works which is making it easier to work through things.
After working through Nutritional and Emotional areas I decided to do the Goal Achiever Coaching Program. I am only half way through and my eyes have really opened up to new possibilities. I don’t have to go along with life as it is, and I have realised that anything is possible for me.
I saw the movie “The Secret” but never knew how to apply it. The Goal Achiever Program is putting the picture together for me and giving me real tools to make things happen.

Since the first session with Colin on this; I have actually taken back clothes that I had out on APRO and have not used a credit card since.
My finances are now in control and I am happily paying these cards out never to be used again.

Fear of Flying
In 2004 I had some fairly bad experiences with flying which resulted in me avoiding flying altogether. I could not even pick up the phone to go to book a flight, the thought of it would start to make me physically ill, anxious and panicky.

Dental Fear
I came to see Wendy for some Nutritional advice. I just happened to mention I was having a lot of pain with a tooth. I needed to go to the Dentist but had been putting it off due to my fear of needles and drills etc…
So Wendy helped me using EFT (Emotional Freedom technique) to release my fears. I was then able to go to the Dentist without the fear and apprehension. It was as easy as going shopping WOW!

Wow! I fell pregnant immediately
After falling pregnant easily with my son at age 27, it was a shock to my husband and myself that we had difficulty conceiving our second. The years passed us by, and medical investigations revealed nothing, doctors just labelled us with “unexplained secondary infertility”, and “You have a hormone imbalance”, but offered not much else that was practical in the way of assistance. We were devastated. How could it be so easy the first time and seemingly impossible second time around?
And so my quest began. I read everything I could get my hands on, tried every lotion and potion and
Just last year we tried some fertility treatment over 4 months, which was invasive but unsuccessful, and then considered doing IVF this year. I feared all the injections and pills and medical cocktails it required I put into my body, not to mention the emotional and financial toll. We decided against it. By this time my moods were really getting me down, and I was not the easiest person in the
world to live with.
Over the next
I enrolled in one of Colin’s EFT courses so that I could easily continue the technique for myself and gain a better understanding of it. It has since helped me in so many ways. Colin and Wendy also recommended to me the Neways Oral Chelation program including using

since the break-up of my marriage when she was six. Bullying about her weight after moving to Townsville in 2010 was also a contributing factor to the challenging events that followed.
Despite accessing the services of a child psychologist on a regular basis, her behaviour progressively worsened and her self-esteem plummeted. She was diagnosed with anxiety, social anxiety and traits of OCD. Living in the same house became stressful for her little brother, and myself, as we never knew what was going to set her off. She kicked the walls when angry, leaving dents, and broke the glass vanity door in the bathroom. Her school marks slowly

Thankfully, I had been reading about ‘tapping’ and had been pointed in the direction of Colin Soper at the Optimal Wellness Clinic. I dragged my daughter along for her first session in May this year, despite her telling me that she wouldn’t do this ‘stupid tapping’ and that I was wasting my money. She had weekly sessions with Colin over the next four weeks producing AMAZING results.
She started to come out of her room more and would watch TV with the family. Her school absences have decreased, by half, each term since she started the EFT sessions with Colin. She now asks to go to visit family friends on the weekends. In July, a friend’s teenage son asked what ‘miracle drug’ she had been put on because she was actually a nice person now. She has only cut herself twice in 5 months and she is now passing all of her subjects.
Thanks to Colin and EFT our home is a much calmer and happier place to live.

Remarkable EFT Session
Since a remarkable EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) session given by Colin Soper at the Optimal Wellness Clinic in Townsville I am pleased to say that since this treatment I have been able to walk so much better. Prior to this EFT treatment, since February 2009 when a Laparoscopic Paravaginal Repair and Sacral Colpopexy operation was performed to correct a prolapse, walking was difficult with a right hip problem acerbated by locked nerves. The muscles had pulled so tightly that hip degeneration had occurred.
My husband takes me for a regular beach walk most Sundays. On our next beach walk after the first EFT session 9th August 2013 I became so excited that I could actually squeeze muscles of my right thigh and buttock at the same time – a first in nearly 5 years.
The problem came back in October after the passing of my mother, again this was nerve related from a cruel childhood incident which triggered off the ‘old’ complaint, which is really where the beginning of many other ailments arose from. After another EFT session at the Optimal Wellness

Colin didn’t know what was happening to me at first, as I had my hands over my ears, also tapping my ears to try and stop the sound. You see I had a massive frog phobia for over 20 years, which made life very difficult. When Colin found out what was happening he asked if he could help me using some tapping points on the body, what I later found out was EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique).
He started tapping and each time between rounds he asked questions of how I was feeling; the fear I had got less and
It has totally changed my life. I can now say the word FROG, look at a picture of a frog; hear frogs and nothing bothers me about them. I am truly thankful to Colin for this.

Having suffered depression in the past myself I didn’t want him to suffer what I had. Being so young I certainly did not want him to be on medication to control his sadness so I searched for an alternative treatment. I found out about the Optimal Wellness Clinic and decided to give it a go. We went along to see Colin and the technique was very simple and did not take very long.
Colin said sometimes just one visit would do the trick and seemed quite confident that he had helped my son. I thought that was a pretty tall

Ecstatic Rebuilding My Life
You may not be surprised but I am ecstatic!!!! The EFT technique is brilliant. I was able to work most of yesterday, full of life and confidence and no problem using the computer.
Thank you so much. WOW!!!!!!
I’m rebuilding my life after a protracted and terrible divorce and complete nervous breakdown. I’ve gone from hospitalisation for acute depression to steadily climbing back to the top of the world. I’ve met a new lady and we plan to journey on together. Your help in getting me to let go, forgive and be confident and capable at work and in myself underpins our future.
And in case I didn’t tell you – last year your yoga teaching cured a chronic sciatic nerve/hamstring/IT band problem that was seriously restricting my lifestyle. The first lesson relieved the pain and by the second lesson, the problem was gone.
I also found the image you shared of keeping ears directly above shoulders
Warmest thanks.

“My daughter suffered from recurrent tonsillitis and ear infections from the age of 9 months. During the next six years there was a familiar pattern to this, a bout of tonsillitis and or ear infections, antibiotics for a week, sometimes two, a week free of infections and then the cycle would start again. The treatment offered throughout these episodes by the medical fraternity (G.P.’s and specialists) was that she should have a tonsillectomy.

Severe Depressions, Anxiety and Endless Stress
The past 16 years have been a very negative downward spiral for me. Some 4 years ago when I had hit my all time low, I had severe depression, anxiety, endless stress, didn’t even find peace in my sleep. I was enduring constant suffering and I was just 22. Around this time I started seeing a few psychiatrists, where I was then placed on
The side effects were very strong and I felt the pills were just hiding my problems, forcing a smile on my face when underneath all the pain and darkness still remained.
What I did dream for was to be able
Now I do have inner peace, am so much calmer, smile often,
A few weeks ago I started The Goal Achiever program, it is teaching me so very much, the tools and awareness to reach any goal I so desire. Now I know I can achieve whatever I wish, I can and in time I will.
During one of my sessions with one of my psychiatrists years ago I was given a report of my progress to give to my doctor, it wasn’t sealed in an envelope and so being allowed to read it. There typed out in bold under my long list of negative illnesses was the word permanent. My psychiatrist believed I would always be depressed, stressed and on edge.
I’m so happy and grateful to say, that with the great help of Colin and Wendy, my psychiatrist’s conclusion was incorrect!

Weight Loss - No Diet
I have always been what is politely referred to as a “big girl”. I have tried every diet since I was 10 years old; Weight Watchers, Calorie counting, Jenny Craig, joining a gym, liquid diets, meal replacement, prescribed drugs, fad diets – you name it. I would lose a stone in weight, but within a few months after the weight loss, I would put that weight back on – plus more. My weight kept creeping up and up. I kept swimming and did gentle walking and low impact aerobics, so was a not-too-unfit size 24.
However, it was when I suffered from a major depressive episode and was prescribed ant-depressants that my weight soared out of control. When I moved to Townsville I weighed 174 kg. I went along to the Yoga Chi Gung course, and enjoyed it so much that I did another 2 courses. That was a shock – that exercise can be fun. Exercise can help you feel better. Exercise does not need to involve expensive equipment or ongoing fees. Colin Soper the instructor was always very supportive and very focused on teaching all the students how to do the practice at home, to become self-sufficient and include the yoga practice as part of your daily
routine, like brushing your teeth.
Colin then took my recovery one step further and offered to take me through the Emotional Freedom Technique (E.F.T.). I was the biggest cynic in the world. The idea that just talking about weight loss and doing some vague tapping stuff would help at all, when all other attempts over decades had failed seemed absolutely absurd to me. Colin was so adamant that it would work; he nagged and nagged, even going so far as to offer to treat me for free. It is not often that someone is so convinced of a product that they will give it away gratis. I thought I would go along to get him off my back, and prove that yet another attempt to control my weight would fail.
I found each session challenging. It took a long time to grasp the core concept that it is not what you eat; it is the reason why you are eating. After each session of looking into my past and working through each painful memory associated with my weight, kilos started to drop off as if by magic. My portion size shrank, I made better food choices, I walked more and I did yoga poses while waiting for the photocopier. I no longer skipped meals as food was no longer the enemy. Most importantly, THE WEIGHT STAYED OFF.
For the first time in my life I felt as though I had some control over my own body. I continued to see Colin (as a paying client!) and my weight has continued to slowly but surely drop; and even if I have had a period of time where there was little if no weight loss; the weight has never come back on. When I conceived my daughter, I weighed 153.5 kg at week 15. This has been a weight loss of a steady kilo a month for two years – with no suffering or food deprivation. I have gone on holidays and eaten whatever the heck I’ve wanted. I have had chocolate and steak and cheesecake and desert when I’ve gone out to dinner. I have even thrown out cake that has gone mouldy and chocolates that have gone stale – because I had forgotten they were there and I had not wanted to eat them! A chocolate bar can sit in my fridge now for weeks with no hope of consumption.
I have continued to lose weight at a very gradual, safe rate almost throughout the pregnancy. I weighed 154 kg at week 39. Now I am dying of curiosity to see what I weigh when I see my obstetrician at my 6 week check up. I am continuing to see Colin about increasing my breast milk supply and working through the aftermath of anxiety and pain from the birth, and E.F.T. has helped immeasurably with that too. My sleep is better and my milk supply is increasing. It is such a comfort to have an alternate health professional who treats the whole of the person, their body, mind and spirit, and who treats not just today’s symptoms, but clears the past ills and helps prevent future ones.
I would thoroughly recommend the E.F.T. process to anyone. I have found it a great help with ridding myself of underlying causes to health concerns. Colin even trains you to be able to do the process yourself, so instead of eating for comfort, or to mask your anger or because you are lonely or bored or tired or feeling under appreciated, you can work out the underlying cause of your problems and take another step along the road to self acceptance.
This testimonial covers a period of three years of the benefits I have experienced as a long term client.

I brought my son (aged 14) to Colin at the Optimal Wellness Clinic. He was very irritable all the time, had trouble sleeping and poor concentration, he was very difficult to get along with. He would physically hit both mum and dad. He also had difficulty eating, would not eat very much and had allergies.

I have had 3 one hour sessions. I am now free from my traumatisation from my past and I am totally
Free from my past, free from pain and free from guilt,
I am so excited and I totally believe she can help me in this regard too. To anyone out there who has any kind of problem at all, do yourself a favour. invest your time in Wendy and Colin. You will not be sorry.
