From Madge Sutter:
The experience has eliminated brief depression and has supported and reaffirmed that visualizing healing from MS was possible. It kick starts my day.
From Lynn Worley:
My participation in this work has heightened my awareness of just how fabulous my life is, and how powerful I can be in co-creating the experienced I want. I have always been happy-but now I am consciously happy, which is even better.
From Gary Griffen:
Thoughts, desires and wants that were displaced have come together with great definition. I have a greater direction with short and long term goals!
From Kate Ullman:
I have been able to recapture the ability to have dreams and hopes again. Regain clarity in my life and move out of negative thoughts and feelings much more quickly than I have ever experience through the process of the Emotional Gym. Thank-you, Dr. Bill
From Brian O.:
Dr. Bill provided me with a specific set of tools to bring great peace, happiness, success, and joy into my life. Knowing who I am, my strengths, has helped me excel in every area of my life.
From Kelly Laurich:
This work has renewed me and energized me beyond what I could have imagined. This work has changed my perception of being selfish and wanting the best for myself. I have experienced more epiphanies in the past ten weeks than in my entire life. I laughed, I cried, I danced, I experienced sustained joy, love, gratitude, and peace. What a gift, what a treasure to share with all you know and meet. I will this knowledge for the rest of my life. Thank-you so much Dr. Bill for all that you have given us. You truly are amazing.
From Mary Tenkin:
This work is like a gold nugget. I know whenever I start going into a downward spiral I can pull out my golden nuggets (strengths, emotional gym) and I will go spiraling upward! Much gratitude. Dr. Bill is brilliant.
From Scott Bolles:
An uplifting experience which allowed me to look at life in a whole new perspective. The power is within me.
From Rod Carter:
Dr. Larkin’s class is f-u-n! As the time flies by, each class fairly sizzles with new insight and new perspectives and nuances of things you already know. Dr. Larkin’s teaching method, like that of a wily Zen master, functions on at least two levels- you find yourself, at one and the same time, concretely enjoying what is being taught in theory. Since the class itself pulsates with optimal experiences, it is its own exemplification of the flow that makes for moments of happiness. Unlike many in the scientific community, Dr. Larkin honors Spirit, or Source, in his neuroscience of happiness. This class will help you learn to look on the bright side of a new way –with spirituality that will make you……optimystic! If a student may grate the teacher, Dr. Larkin get an A+ from me.
From Alan Lawrence:
Empowering, incredible, mind-expanding! This work has had a major impact on my life. I now feel that “the sky is the limit!”
–from John Booker, AT&T
I would have to say, the most significant change in my life is my vision for the future. I know what I want in life. That is huge! Having some ideas, in the back of my mind, does not compare in any way to having clearly defined goals, visions, and dreams in writing. As I continue to learn and grow, I can change my goals. The FuturePac process also revealed some goals I would not have expected. I visualize my wants and desires and I know how I will feel when they manifest. I have learned the formula for discovering what makes meaning in my life. This was a fun process that I can’t wait to share with others. (Read More)

I would never have guessed, not even in my wildest dreams, that I would be experiencing the personal deep changes in myself that I have, in such a very short time. Transferring to a positive mental outlook from the lifetime of negative internal verbiage that I have subjected myself to. I have taken multiple (too many to count) workshops on self help, and ‘fix yourself now’ classes that either in days or weeks left my mind completely. The ‘change’ these classes promised was, for me, short lived or non-existent. (Read More)

As someone who has suffered from Major Depression for almost four decades, this course has brought new people into my life, given me new strategies and ways of thinking and has given me the insight abd oppportunity to know that ultimately, I have full responsibility for my mental and emotional wellbeing and how I choose to live my life. Perhaps more importantly, I now have optimism that I can live to my fullest potential every day and actually be a happy person. (Read More)
–from Mary Garvey, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Despite this being a group of diverse adults - the individuality, uniqueness, and special talents of each man or woman was enhanced. Each was invited to “assert the mastery of his or her own authentic self” and magic happened both individually and as a group. I experienced this waking up of my authentic self over the course of the 20 weeks and watched with amazement as I saw it happen to my classmates. What a positive and life-changing opportunity this class has been for me to raise my vibration and to live the life of joy that I came forth to live! THANK YOU... (Read More)

Dear Dr. Larkin (alias Dr. Happy) … When I can’t get to feeling JOY … which is increasingly easier… I can always enjoy the gift of laughter recalling your “Oh great! … another day as Dr. Happy” stories and adventures. In spite of the inability to articulate the brilliance and impact of this work … I know and embrace its value and importance with an ever expanding appreciation and respect. I have never been as positively impacted or so inspired by any other learning experience … whatever the format and/or its good intent! If all “masters of their trade” or educators had a fraction of your expertise and presented their work with such high level of preparation and professionalism … coupling it with your passion and humor … we could/would be an educated nation … hungry for more learning and evolving. I don’t have to work so hard to retrieve or hold onto what I know and/or feel. And if nothing else … I am eternally grateful for being able to enjoy a deep sleep for almost the first time in my life. I do not wake up like shot out of a cannon and finally can appreciate why people love their snooze buttons. (Read More)

Dr. Larkin’s book was extremely thought provoking. So much in fact, that when I learned a class was starting, built around the book, I knew I wanted to be involved. My experience has been enlightening and has changed my outlook on life. Good thing, as I was, as Dr. Larkin calls it, "flatlining". Life had lost its joy. Here I’ve found not only a philosophy, but a roadmap to a better life. But be forewarned, this is not a class to sit back and soak in new ideologies, leaving enlightened and changed. It can be all that, if you do the work. Not counting the daily exercises, I averaged 3 to 5 hours of homework each week. Frankly, the exercises often seemed trivial and time consuming at first glance. Yet, at the end of each homework assignment, I found I had learned more and understood the concepts more deeply, brilliant! (Read More)
–from Rev. Michael Kearney
Dr. Larkin and Dr. Johnson, I wish to acknowledge you for presenting and facilitating this wonderful experience. In addition to this class I have found that my experience with each of you in our other encounters has been truly valuable. Not always the most comfortable, but valuable. These past months and 20 weeks have provided some very strong momentum in my expression and I am confident that this will continue for the rest of my life here. My original struggle was to see where this work would fit into the “spiritual” aspect of my life, my work and my passion. Certainly I have found that there is an easy correlation to this work, the work of others that I still hold dear and the opening of Science of Mind at the top. (Read More)
–from Kelly Laurich, Certified Life Coach
Discovering that I can change the neuropath ways in my brain with my thoughts and emotions has opened doors and presented opportunities that never occurred to me prior to this experience. I am now aware of my negative thought patterns and I know they do not serve me. I have always believed in being positive and through this course I now know there is scientific evidence that proves how that behavior can heal us. It also proves being positive gives us a solid basis to create our lives and attract the goals we desire and the ability to achieve them. (Read More)
–from Jillian O’Hara, Certified Life Coach
I am developing a new appreciation of myself, Who I Am at my Vibe core. Many of my strengths are about Transcendence something that has always interested me, and that I have spent a great deal of money studying, at the same time always noticing that a lot of people were taking Business, Marketing and Finance classes. Now, I value me. I am valuable. Yes, I have developed some great skills using the build-my-weakness-strategy; now it is time to focus, develop and play to what lives in me, what abides in me, what is the truth of me. I am a powerful loving being and as I play to my strengths, I have a great deal to offer to the world. I am a person of significance. I am Me. (Read More)

I am the happiest I’ve been in seven years. I attribute that to the Emotional Gym, knowing and using my Signature Strengths and Talents, aligning my vibration to what wanted living in the UpSpiral. In actuality, I attribute that to “Growing the Positive Mind” and The Applied Neuroscience Institute Certification Course. (Read More)

These tools that I have received will carry me thru the remainder of my life. Love, Peace, Joy, Gratitude and Certitude has come alive in me. It has awakened a sleeping giant and given me amazing insight. My life has been forever changed. It now makes complete sense to me! (Read More)
–from Rev. Bev
“The benefit of the VC in my life I understand why I put on weight and how I became aware of the vibration of what I was thinking, doing and how I felt about my body. So, applied this to my actions, and words I lost 25 pounds, what I have learned is that I do not need food to feel good. Wow!! I have set a goal to become more physically fit, with strength building exercises to stay in that vibration of healthy body.” (Read More)
I have a much better understanding of what my strengths are, and have learned how to incorporate them into my day. Developing my strengths has given me the clarity and focus to determine what I want. Knowing what I am good at has contributed to the belief that I will attract the things I want in my life.
The life coach training class of the Applied Neuroscience Institute has given me a gift of renewed life with solid direction. I now have a more meaningful life, experiencing a natural progression with renewed vigor, enthusiasm for each day, and a defined personal significance and meaning.
