CASE HISTORIES AND TESTIMONIALS
These case histories and testimonials are signed by their contributors. They have been included to explain and show the changes and transformations many of my clients and students have undergone. These case histories were collected shortly before the publishing of this book.
Many of these transformations are still in progress at the time of this publishing. I wish to thank all my clients and students for their inspired contributions, from the bottom of my heart. Due to space limitations, many contributions were not included. For this I apologize. Maybe they can be included in my next book.
"REAL PEOPLE" TESTIMONIALS
Working with Gary Clyman has given me the ability to focus on a problem, visualize the solution, and go in a direct line to bring about the necessary change.
- Daniel Garvey, (DN) Commodity trader, The C.B.O.T. Bond Pit, President, Inland Trading Company. Chicago, IL
Gary Clyman's PERSONAL POWER TRAINING is one of the most relevant, important and unique trainings offered. It cuts through the crap and saves me a lot of time. I learned in two weeks what would have taken me five years to get elsewhere.
- Dr. Mark R. Marquart, Naperville, IL
Gary is great - I feel stronger & more secure in my own energy flow. He can be of help in any professional or business setting. There is nothing like this that you can obtain elsewhere.
Although I have been practicing for only a few months, I have seen great success already.
- Harvey Waller, Tax attorney and commodity trader, Chicago, IL
I'm not too good at giving testimonials but I know I should let people know about the experiences I had and things I learned while I was your student. You are a "progressive pioneer" in
understanding that which is "intangible" in people.
Your unselfish willingness to improve people through their mastering that which is inside them, in ways that I don't understand, yet I know are extremely effective, should be made public. There are things in this world that are genuine only if believed in and people should not to be critical and cynical about things they don't understand.
I hope your book becomes a big success. Thanks for everything you gave and taught me when I was your student.
- George Larson, U.S. Navy
When I originally interviewed with Gary Clyman, I was as skeptical as the next guy. What he said made sense, and I figured I had nothing to lose.
I made "the right decision." I received major results in the areas of respect and self-confidence.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has helped me to accept responsibility for what happens to me instead of projecting and creating future problems. Taking responsibly for my own actions made a world of difference in my life, my relationships, and most important, my trading.
I never thought I'd give Gary Clyman a testimonial, let alone ever say "he doesn't charge enough.
- Wayne Hendricks, (WCH) Commodity trader, The C.B.O.T. Bond Pit.
As for contributions to your book, most of my Chi Kung practice tends to be at night because of my work schedule. It is not uncommon that by the time I finish practicing, I am so energized, I can't sleep at night.
It's as if I could just skip sleeping and go right into another day of work.
- David Cheffi, Elmwood Park, IL
I just felt like I had moved very, very fast toward where I was heading on my own except I was plodding along, and it was painstakingly slow. You just gave a boost toward where I was going and my focus widened so I could see more possibilities. I now have more energy, which is great.
You attract people that can do this work and you provide "profound enthusiasm for life." I've never met anybody like you. The very thing that I was scared of originally, is the very thing that I'm now drawn to; the reason I want to work with you. Your "knowingness" and confidence levels are contagious.
- Sheila Rubin, Portland, OR
The main reasons that I found PERSONAL POWER TRAINING helped was that it helped me, first of all, identify some of the origins of my frustrations and secondly, it restored some confidence in myself as a person.
The actual daily practice, which from my point of view, is only a small portion that probably could be done, has helped me focus in on the day when I do it early in the morning. It has helped me improve my awareness and I believe that's been very helpful.
I'm a commodity trader and I do customer business as well as trade for myself. During those months that I was very frustrated with the whole situation, PERSONAL POWER TRAINING helped me calm down and restore confidence in myself. This is important because most of "The Game of Trading" is a test of confidence.
- Paul Kram, The C.B.O.T., Chicago, IL
Now I have a higher tolerance for dealing with life's frustrations and less of a tendency to indulge in extremes... like food."
- Elyse Green, School psychologist, Chicago, IL
I have been using the ideas and internal energy cultivation exercises taught by Gary Clyman for the past 5 months and the results have been phenomenal. My practice is growing and my daily life is filled with greater amounts of energy and joy. The increased inner power I feel helps me turn conflict and problems into solutions. I can be a tiger when the situation calls for it. Peace of mind feels GREAT. Thanks Gary.
- Dr. Gary Whitley, Chiropractic Physician, Salt Lake City, UT
Gary is gifted with the 6th and 7th senses about what truly afflicts people, and how they can heal themselves.
- Joseph Mill, Psychotherapist, Chicago, IL
Gary, I just want to briefly share with you what Chi Kung has done for me. The major benefit to me may also be the most basic benefit. Chi Kung has taught me how to breathe. As a childhood asthmatic, I was always a "chest breather." To this day during times of stress and anxiety, I still breathe shallowly. At this point, I use some of the techniques you taught me and in moments my breathing is back to normal.
The second benefit I have derived from my Chi Kung practice is a presence I feel, the way I feel within my body, the way I am aware of my extremities. I get a feeling of total presence. Thanks Gary.
- John Goodman, Chicago, IL
I've been with a Chiropractic management firm with moderate growth for 2 years, but with Gary's coaching, the increased growth has been dramatic and accelerated. This is the perfect adjunct to any professional Chiropractic management program. My self-image has improved greatly...
When I look in the mirror, I now see a successful doctor. My technical skills have gone beyond technique. Cultivating internal energy really makes a difference.
I used to ask myself, "How can this work?" I don't anymore. Gary's methods are unorthodox, but so effective, I just do it and the results follow. My business has grown and I am very grateful for that. Gary does just what he says he'll do.
- Dr. Joseph Kalal, Chiropractic Physician, Chicago, IL
I find I'm more outgoing... I've become more aware of how I function...The most important thing to know about PERSONAL POWER TRAINING is... It Works!
- John Packel, Commodity Trader, Los Angeles, CA
After experiencing only a third of the first day of the two day weekend workshop due to a family emergency, I noticed major changes immediately in my negative belief systems. I can hardly wait to complete the workshop after participating in just a fraction of it.
- Larry R. Michalski, Des Plaines, IL
My experience in taking PERSONAL POWER TRAINING with Gary Clyman was unique. It opened many doors that were previously closed to me. The training helped me physically, mentally, and spiritually, and in witnessing myself with new understanding and courage.
These experiences helped release much of the stress and blocked energy I was holding onto.
Being with Gary was truly part of the training for he showed me that "a person can be what his words are all about. It is truly a worthwhile experience for everyone. It teaches you to be one with yourself.
- Joseph Bruno, Chicago, IL
I have more energy than I've had in my whole life and I feel better than I ever have, too. I feel I can handle anything that might come my way. So much of what I feel is emotional - it's hard to put into words... but if I had not done PERSONAL POWER TRAINING, I would surely have ruined the current relationship I'm in.
People notice me now when I walk down the street. My confidence has been elevated to a new height... My goals have changed and the motivation behind them is stronger, so I'm looking toward the future in a totally new light.
The energy and improvement come from within yourself. You're not putting yourself in anyone else's hands to cure you or to heal you. It all comes from within!
- Theresa Williams
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING helped me become more active in applying everything I know to whatever I want to do. Things are clearer for me.
Each time I do my daily exercises, I feel more attuned to the energy in my body. I'm using the training techniques in every area of my life.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has given me a place from which to focus. Now I have a way to focus and concentrate that is relaxing, but not boring... It's a catalyst to energize myself.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has helped me improve my relationship with myself... my self-esteem has been enhanced; and it has improved my relationship with others as well.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has helped me become much more aware of breath control, concentration, and my sense of power. It has helped me to organize myself internally. I have never felt better in my life.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING is a catalyst for change... it gets things done!
- Andy Roth
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING is the most honest and straight forward course I've ever taken.
It's taught me to recognize that I have an emotional side, and not just an intellect and a body. It's made me more spontaneous of stature, and I realize that life doesn't have to be so serious!
- Andy Welter, Chicago, IL
Gary Clyman not only teaches unique exercises, but he also teaches how to make changes in your life. Gary will help you decide on your goals if they are unclear, and he'll assist you in being specific on just how to attain them. He supports you in taking action to make the changes you want.
There's no hiding from your own greatest potential when you work with Gary. I now have more confidence and greater energy. If you decide what you want when you begin PERSONAL POWER TRAINING, you'll get it!
Everyone wants something different and that's what you get... the things that satisfy you the most!
- Manuel Mendez, Chicago, IL
I took the PERSONAL POWER TRAINING because I wanted a non-intellectual, no-nonsense experience of my body. Clyman delivered. I got breakthroughs I came in to get, and more besides. I quit trying to protect women from my physicality as though it were evil and would hurt them. They loved it! (So did I!) Where had I been all these years?
For the first time in my life, I sang alone before an audience--and kept going back for more. I learned to catch myself doing projects and the hard "get ready to do it" way instead of just piling in and getting things done.
And one day I suddenly realized how silly of me it had always been not to use the status power available to me through dressing in fine, fashionable clothing that I could long ago have afforded.
Probably best of all, I quit being a "Care-Taking Machine," patronizing people as though I were smart enough to take better care of them than just being my "raw self" would accomplish. Me, just the way I am--I'm really great! Being physical has released my love and my work energy without any need to "be figured out" in my mind. I'm living right out of the center now. I found the groove. I didn't think it would ever happen!
Clyman knows how to catalyze things like these for people, and he knows what it means for them and their lives. It's clear to me that love is what has him motivated to focus his life's energy around setting people free.
He needed to share this practice with me, and I needed to get it. Don't YOU miss it!
- Robb Murray, Chicago, IL
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has given me just that - more Personal Power! It gave me the Personal Power for "me to be me, without apologizing!" I was always taught to be "a good little girl" and not make waves! That meant to allow myself to be pushed around and not speak up when I was hurt. I always felt intimidated.... especially in relationships with men or with anyone more intelligent than me. But not anymore! I figure the only difference between a so-called authority figure and me is a little bit of knowledge. That I can get! What no one could give me was my self-esteem. I have that now and much, much more.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING helped me in being "ME"! No one can ever give me that! That's something I gave myself. What PERSONAL POWER TRAINING does, through Gary Clyman's guidance, is it gives you the tools to work with yourself daily so you can fully live life without feeling intimidated! Life is a JOY rather than a burden! PERSONAL POWER TRAINING is worth every minute and every penny I spent on it.
Thanks Gary, for creating PERSONAL POWER TRAINING and for being so committed to people.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING allows you to be yourself, naturally, and what it is that Gary Clyman does encourages you to be MORE of yourself, naturally, and have fun with it. Gary Clyman extracts and expands the positive qualities of each person. I've seen him do it with nearly everybody he comes in contact with.
- Barbara Tomzack, Chicago, IL
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING gave me a much richer and deeper appreciation for relating to my body and body sensations. I learned flexibility and being able to tap into my internal energy.
It has helped me with my coordination, my diet, and has given me a new understanding about internal meditation through the Tai Chi exercises. My purpose for doing PERSONAL POWER TRAINING was to support me in understanding myself as a physical being. I feel that in the well rounding of an individual a person needs to have his physical life together as well as the mental, emotional, and spiritual.
Gary works with people right where they are... He's in perfect dance with each individual who goes through PERSONAL POWER TRAINING.
- James McClenahan D.D.S., Homewood, IL
In terms of personal power, I have been able to tap into doing PERSONAL POWER TRAINING exercises and re-energize myself during the course of a busy day, and it will lift me out of my fatigue.
It's given me the ability to blast through resistance from both other people and my own as well, in business as well as in inter-personal relationships.
Within six months after doing PERSONAL POWER TRAINING my energy began to soar. I was able to complete a music videotape, I wrote a lot of music, and I elevated the level of my performance ability as well. I've also utilized a lot of information from PERSONAL POWER TRAINING to improve my personal self-image.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has opened up my awareness and led me to other avenues of personal power. It has also expanded my financial horizons.
- Oliver Williams, Psychotherapist and musician, Chicago, IL
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING not only gave me more energy, it also gave me an awareness of what is available in life at any moment. By available I mean, for example, if I feel resigned, I know at any moment I can go into the energy focus Gary taught me and come out of it with a feeling of high energy. It has given me a powerful distinction in relation to myself and others around me. I have an awareness of people not using their power.
When I have the energy, I see the lack of it in other people.
- Russ Taylor, San Francisco, CA
I notice that I have more mastery over myself when I have the energy. After I do PERSONAL POWER TRAINING exercises, things are more easily accomplished. The energy is powerful but it doesn't "wire" me, or make me anxious... it's really very nurturing. I feel more joyful - things are more colorful and life looks brighter. I am more assertive in all areas of my life, for example with women in relationships. I'm more out in the world participating in every area of life.
Since I did PERSONAL POWER TRAINING two years ago I started a business which has become very viable. Also, a lot of who I am is a dedication to physical fitness, and it is the way that I see the world.
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING has assisted me in both of these areas. I now have more energy to do a better job at work. Being around Gary is very empowering. I wouldn't do the course unless I wanted to be confronted and play full out in life. I find Gary very inspiring and powerfully committed to what's possible for each of us. Who he is, is about using what the Universe has to offer to empower us and for us to grow.
He knows a lot about using universal energy and teaches his knowledge to others. I think he's an extraordinary person - a very, very unusual man.
- A Mystery Supporter, Chicago, IL
I have a new job, new apartment, and a new lifestyle, and I couldn't have done it without PERSONAL POWER TRAINING.
- Joseph Arnswald, Chicago, IL
I have gained more clarity in the past week. I'm also approaching problems as they occur rather than putting them off till later.
- Fred E. Estey, Chicago, IL
Gary's vision and presence were "tailor made" for the times and world we live in. This is a very aggressive, demanding world and Gary has taught me not only how to cope, but even to prosper in it. Thanks Gary.
- Edward Gallagher, Chicago, IL
Gary's strength and clarity becomes contagious when you work with him in PERSONAL POWER TRAINING.
- Anne Surowski, Chicago, IL
Acting is probably the most stressful profession there is. Every job you get, you're going to lose.
In 90% of the auditions you get rejected. This takes a tremendous toll on your personal energy stores. PERSONAL POWER TRAINING continues to help me to overcome this stress and gives me the personal magnetism necessary to excel in this very difficult field.
- Kurt Johns, Professional Actor, Chicago, IL
PERSONAL POWER TRAINING helped me keep myself in front of my typewriter, so I could start my new career as a free-lance writer.
- Dennis Franke R.N., Self-Care Associates, Chicago, IL
