Phenomenal guide
What I loved about the program is its convenience and its open, ethical and honest approach.
I would thoroughly recommend Dr Ruth's program. The sessions equipped me with some incredibly simple, yet highly effective and powerful ways in which to reduce trauma and grief!
I am using them daily and have seen some very meaningful shifts in consciousness.
Ruth is a phenomenal guide and her care, expertise and professional approach felt really safe and open and a place I could relax and trust.

Much calmer now before going to sleep
I feel much more calm before going to sleep. Any triggers I previously faced are now manageable and I don’t feel distressed or anxious as I did before
I am able to disassociate any negative feelings I have with my trauma
It was a very personal approach which made me feel comfortable. Even though I hadn’t had contact with Ruth before the session, it was free flowing and very natural

Left with healing tools
I learned a ton from the coaching. Ruth was flexible and articulated the process clearly and simply
I loved the insights into my past and the education on how to heal from the past
Ruth was kind and compassionate. She educated me on the process and the why for each step
I left with healing and tools to help myself in the future.

Very powerful
The coaching had an immediate, lasting result and was a good experience as well. I loved that I didn't have to talk about the traumatic event
Reshaping the memory towards the end was very powerful. Go right ahead! If you are afraid of thinking about the memory or thing, don't be. You only have to bring it to mind for a short moment, not talk about it or anything else, and the session begins
Each time after I revisited the memory, it didn't have the negative charge any more. Phew!

No further flashbacks!
The coaching was very easy with a comfortable style
I found it very effective and so far I have not had any further flashbacks!
I loved the results. Such a simple technique with very effective results.

Empowering
Coaching with Ruth empowered me to know that I possess the power to change how I feel about events in my past
She helped me with a memory which might be deemed insignificant to some, but was very significant to me, and she worked with the memory as I perceived it
I loved that I can change how I feel about things that happened in the past.

Felt 100% better
I loved the way I became calm very quickly. The session was very interesting and helped a lot.
The technique is easy to use and can be achieved anywhere. I had a release of energy which made me feel 100% better
Give it a try!

Inclusive and relaxing style
The coaching session was very efficiently managed and easy to follow, but done in an inclusive, relaxed way
I loved that nothing was assumed. It was managed by Ruth, but the direction of travel was set by me
There’s nothing to fear and no downside.

Now it's just something that happened
Ruth was very relaxing and put me at ease by explaining the techniques involved in the coaching session
I loved that it's a simple technique. It didn't feel like a difficult session - I'd set my self up with a lot of tissues, just incase I got upset, but I didn't need them
It is a really positive experience and helps to dissociate the pain with the event. It's now just something that happened rather than what is constantly being lived through.
Valerie O
Program: 1-1 Trauma Recovery Coaching
Much more relaxed
I came to the session wanting to feel differently about a negative event at work that I was hanging on to and was still affecting my confidence
I was very wary of the session as I have never experienced anything like it before and I don't feel comfortable talking to strangers about personal issues
It is very strange to explain but, when I now think of the specific event that we used, it is as though I am watching it from an outsider's point of view rather than being part of it myself
I have a much more relaxed and less negative view of that particular event now
Give it a go!

Mood lifted
Ruth explained everything brilliantly, put me at ease and encouraged me throughout the process. I felt the benefit instantly
My mood was lifted and I was able to practice the technique myself after the session. I loved how it left me feeling and found using this technique it is possible to achieve a change in mood and outlook in a really short space of time
I would wholeheartedly encourage anyone to give it a go. It is totally painless and didn't involve any delving into past traumatic memories. It really does have an instant and lasting impact.

Profound and transformative
Ruth had a lovely warm and professional manner that immediately inspired confidence. I felt relaxed and safe throughout
I loved having a safe space to explore feelings and thoughts in a new way and being guided on a very profound journey, as well as feeling the issue as something tangible, feeling it shrinking and becoming less painful to approach
Don't be afraid - it feels safe and gentle, but is also profound and transformative. Ruth was very professional, thorough and reassuring throughout.

Unhelpful feelings diminished
The session was very immersive and didn't require too much effort on my part
I loved picturing my happy experiences and working through the unhelpful feelings and seeing them diminish
Definitely give it a go, nothing to be nervous about!

Self-empowerment
I felt safe and well ‘tuned in’ to Ruth. I loved the self empowerment - the ability to take control of my emotions
There is nothing to be nervous of - it all ‘made sense’ to me, and I’m someone who normally likes evidence and not often a convert to alternative approaches
It was all positive - the process was seamless, delivery felt very natural, and the benefit was clear.

Now able to redirect my thoughts
I loved that it was delivered professionally in a calm and unhurried way, with explanations given all the way through
My biggest insight was that I have the ability to redirect my thoughts and calm myself for a more positive outcome
There is no pressure applied and each step explained left me feeling calmer

Peaceful, present day joy!
It was very helpful and I loved that I felt peaceful
The major insight I grabbed onto was present day joy
It's a way of approaching trauma in the past that is gentle and goes at the pace you want it to.

A lovely experience
The coaching was a lovely experience. Ruth was very friendly and kind and I found the whole thing very relaxing and liberating
Ruth’s approach was great. I was slightly nervous beforehand, but she put me at ease right from the beginning and made it enjoyable
There is absolutely nothing to worry about! It is completely safe and comforting.

Life enhancing and easy
I was struggling with the emotional pain and grief associated with my husband’s death (Ruth’s father). The coaching has made me feel much calmer and at ease with myself
I loved Ruth's calm and gentle manner as she helped me through the issues. I can now think about my husband's death in a more calm and rational way
Ruth made the whole process life enhancing and easy.

Real, actionable tools
I learned a lot from working with Ruth. I identified real actionable tools that I could use
Ruth also meets you where you are at. I believe she understands that this is a journey and that we may all be at different stages
Ruth did not judge or berate, but provided tools, a realistic sounding board and recommendations that are based on evidence based methods.

Massive reduction in pain
Ruth and her brain health coaching was recommended to me and I can honestly say it has changed my life
She has helped me understand certain behaviours I put down to my own unique character is actually how my brain processes the world around me
I also was experiencing a great deal of pain due to a medical condition that my GP and other medical specialists disregarded
With changes to my diet I made a massive impact on reducing my pain levels and also help with hormone balance and general mental health.

Strategies that enriched my life
It's the fastest hour(s) ever spent gaining insight and strategies that enriched my life. Dr Ruth Allan is very kind, gives statistics and good information to help guide into better decisions
I have freedom from some of the painful events that were in my life. I also have better skills for stressful situations that I can use
I better understand the importance of pain and the different ways my body holds it
I loved the release from some pain points that were troublesome; albeit unknown to me previously and better understanding how my brain is wired

Wonderful healing journey
I've had the most wonderful healing and discovering journey about myself. It wasn't easy but Ruth was there for me
I loved her professionalism, knowledge, humanity and method of coaching
My top three positive changes that occurred were learning to check in on how I feel, killing the ANTs and learning my core values
I am so grateful our paths have met. Thank you so much Ruth

A life defining investment
I found the coaching to be one of those life defining investments in me
Having jumped in with both feet, I truly can say that the coaching has made me happier, more relaxed, more focussed and certainly 8 to 10 times more effective... it really has and it could for you as well, so stop hesitating and jump on in too.

Tremendously helpful
The coaching allowed me to assess what my focus and purpose was in my work, how I wanted to show up for my family and what I wanted to get out life
The program gave me routines and tools that helped me developed habits to help me be successful
A particular challenge I have is the initiation and organization of large work projects. Ruth showed me tools to help me manage and organize my projects and also helped me changed my mindset towards projects overall
The experience was tremendously helpful and I whole heartedly recommend the series.

Timely and well-targeted advice
The advice Ruth has given me in through her wellbeing training has allowed me to reassess what it was that I was doing and to declutter my life...
From so many things that were either not necessary, or simply being done to prop up a badly planned approach to many other things I had been attempting to manage
I can’t thank Ruth enough of such timely and well-targeted advice. Give it a go and see for yourselves.

Immediate result
This was a great group trauma recovery session. Ruth took us through the steps gently - checking with us all as we went
The information was well considered and delivered. The teaching of the technique was great
It’s great to get an immediate result and also to now feel equipped to use the technique anytime, anywhere
Definitely do it. Thank you Ruth

Without judgement
I loved that I never felt pressured to speak up. It was comfortable without judgment
It was interesting to understand how the brain works and what is in control of the responses my body has during stressful situations
Now I know how to calm myself with a very simple technique
This session helped me understand my trauma and how to rewire it in an unbelievably simple way
Thanks so much for the guidance and dedicating your time to help.

It's all about you
I loved that the session was short enough to handle it and you are able to walk away with a new skill
There is no pressure - it is about you as an individual, not about others
This session helped me to grow my personal awareness and handling of my own emotional response

Great visualisation
I loved that I was able to achieve good results in a short time
It was well explained, the slides were good and there was good interaction with the participants
I liked the talk about negative thoughts, or what percentage of that thought is true and what is the counter balance to it
It was great visualisation and it really helped

All round comfort
I loved the fact there were several people from around the world who all found comfort
Ruth was calm and her explanations were very concise
I loved the medical imaging and the reasons for why the technique works. She took me to a happy place
Give it a go even if you, like me you, are are sceptical as it will work
I was able to approach the day in a much calmer frame of mind.

She lit up the room
As a guest at the “Share the Change” talks with Les Brown, I saw a number of rising stars in the speaking field. One that I thoroughly enjoyed, was Ruth Mary Allan
She lit up the room with her message of optimism, hope and action
Ruth not only knows that - she practices it, by sharing her powerful message with others.

I loved it's not possible to access it elsewhere and Ruth explained it concisely, but was also personable.
