" Meeting Aleks was a life changing experience. He totally changed the way I was thinking about reducing stress and feelings of overwhelm. When doing his seven day program, I found the exercises very good and useful because they build off each other and you can work at them slowly and through your own pace even though they are super-fast to do. I am now more confident than ever before and excelling at university. I practice his form of mindfulness for brief periods repeatedly through the day and it has totally changed the way I am. I am so much happier and calmer than I used to be. "

" I am now an optimist. Aleks’ rapid positive thinking strategies have transformed that way I deal with negative people and setbacks. He says “optimism is the biggest predictor of life success.” I have a very negative and manipulative family and I was always feeling guilty and taken advantage of by them. Not anymore! I now understand why people become negative and am more understanding of them without having to accept what they do. I don’t doubt myself anymore. I’m not scared of what people think of me and I don’t feel guilty about living my life in the way that is right for me. Aleks’ empowerment techniques are amazing and I regularly find myself re-reading important ideas and practicing strategies. I’m learning more and becoming stronger every day and will soon start my second business. I’ve never felt better! "

" When I met Aleks, I was in a very dark and negative place. I was very depressed, and totally disengaged with my family and years behind on my taxes. Aleks helped me understand myself and my moods and taught me how to use brief mindfulness and other quick strategies to calm myself so I could think more clearly. I practice his short strategies whenever I have a spare couple of minutes because they work and I really feel so much better now. All the anxieties and obligations I was avoiding are now under control. I am really close to my family, my mood is much better and I took the initiative to sort out my financial and tax issues. What he teaches is invaluable and now I’m teaching many of the same techniques to my kids. "
