Testimonials & Personal Stories

Linda Mallett

Just four months ago I came across a link to David’s website while reading an article on an unrelated method of healing; the subject connection wasn’t an obvious one, but something made me take a look. And I’m so glad that I did. What David has since led me to discover and experience of my Self--my healthy, whole Self--is priceless.

As if by magic, after years of varying degrees of ill-health (including a deep and lingering dose of ME) and a searching for new and better ways to live, I now feel my own self-empowerment returning and strengthening in all areas of my life. As the weeks go by, I am continually amazed and humbled by the presence of a self-sustaining wellspring of energy which David has opened within me and which I can draw on at any time. This connection I feel is with my own higher (or inner) Self, which, ultimately, is love--the great and, in my personal experience, only true healer. The sparkling substance of the Universe within.

In fact, I’m beaming as I write this because I am feeling that same empowering flow of energy surging through my whole body and mind--it really does seem to be constantly available for me to connect with now, and, after all the frustration and pain of illness, this is like escaping from a grey, struggling half-life into the full radiance of the sun. I would go so far as to say I feel as though I am becoming a sun on the inside, with my own light and energy wanting to burst through and burn away every last piece of negative thinking or conditioned behavior which might contribute to poor health on any or all levels of my being: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. If this all sounds far-fetched, or inflated, I will do my best to explain my progress since starting to work with David.

When I first met with David I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’d been drawn to see him because I felt excited by his website statement that he is a healer who has overcome his own personal issues and has no interest in bringing any aspects of his own life or personality to bear on his healing sessions. In other words, he isn’t pushing any hidden agenda of his own. And, after many false starts with different healers over the years (even though most of them are very gifted and lovely people in their many ways), this was the piece of information that made me want to sing! I decided to contact David. And I had great hope that, in enlisting his help, I had at last reached that spot where I would experience the final deconstruction of an illness that had taken me to places inside myself that I would really rather not have to visit again.

Well--my sense of hopeful expectation that David would have the ability to pull me out from the mercurial heaviness of ME, into the sunlight of real life, has indeed been gratified. Yip Yippee!

Through the sessions I’ve had so far with David, I’ve learnt that part of his dedicated purpose is to open up for his clients the flow of healing and life-affirming energies which are both within and surrounding all of us, in a way that allows us to actually feel the shifts in energy and the subtle connections to previously untapped levels within us (or parts of ourselves) as they occur. In my experience through working with him, this part of the process simply feels as though I have generated those energy shifts quite naturally, myself, even though their power is above anything I have felt or indeed been able to generate within my own consciousness or body ever before.

At the same time, David is able to challenge me, as an individual, to step forward into these new and powerful energies, and to own them and use them as my own. He takes care to suggest the most appropriate ways that will take me forward with my own life and into my own self-empowerment as a woman, a writer and, not least, as a spiritual being. It’s rather like having a personal life-coach guiding my way. Shining a light on the most appropriate path for me.

There’s no doubt that those challenges are uncomfortable, if they weren’t they wouldn’t be bringing the necessary changes in how I live my life. And certainly there is no point in going back to ways that were forged through old conditioning, so the only way forward is to take on new ways of seeing and acting. In facing the challenges comes the true healing--the new whole way of being.

The thing is, we might feel that we already know all of this (those of us, that is, who have been searching for help to get out of the pit of chronic illness), and most likely many of you reading this will have already tackled so much of what seems to be the cause of your own problems, in so many different ways. But I can honestly say that I have never before experienced such deep and inspiring healing releases in such a short space of time as I have with David working with me and for me.

He is totally present and focused on my own process during the healing sessions. There is no question of having to buy into any extra services or products--or even networks of other clients--as is so often the case with certain healers who, understandably, need to make a living from their work, but who fail to understand the potential damage they do to clients who are trying desperately to get well, by holding them together in a group so that their individual situations are never totally cut free from that group’s level of consciousness. In such cases the clients can‘t fully heal as individuals, and they do not find true self-empowerment.

In my experience, David is focused on empowering me, not his bank account. He does not regard himself as a guru, having no desire to turn his clients into followers of any kind. This means that he is coaching me to draw on my own inner resources and energies, rather than on his own, and to help me get started on my own path he firstly gave me a taste of those energies.

I remain very humble when I think back to my first session in which David took me on a journey into my subconscious to meet my archetypal male and warrior aspects. The whole experience was magical. But what David actually does to implement the highly transformative energetic effects, which I experienced for days after the session, must remain a shining mystery, because it is part of the healing system taught to him by the group of Native American shamans with whom he once lived and trained, and who accepted the promise from him that he would keep the method secret.

After this first session I was wholly enlivened and excited, not only by the injection of energy, but also by the opening up of a new and what felt like a higher dimension within my consciousness.

In the days following the session, I had the experience of being aware of looking out over the universe and of knowing the smallness and paltriness of my own personality focus. It was an amazing experience! It prompted me to remember (in body and mind) the bits of me that had been fit and healthy and happy before the onset of ME many years ago. I had the sense of being a teenager again with my whole future ahead of me. And this all came through at an energetic level, empowering my body, as well as at the conscious level of my mind. I knew that I was at once experiencing the hugeness of the Universe and the smallness of my point of consciousness, but the truly wonderful thing was that I was FEELING the infinite love that is both. In writing this I am reminding myself that I am that Universe, and that Universe ultimately only loves. The point of connection between me and that inner (and outer) Universe is love, and it is there that I need to take myself every time my mind tries to do a self-destruct number on my wholeness!

But I’m finding that those mental aberrations are becoming fewer and fewer as I continue to integrate the revelations of each healing session. And David is on hand to boot me in the right direction, with much patience and wit, whenever I start to stray off-track.

There are only a very few people on Earth today who have both the gift, and the dedication to work with integrity to nurture this ability, to link with and direct such powerful transformative healing powers, so that people such as you and I can be led to a healing through experiencing their own inner connection to the massive power of the Universal Spirit. That energy which (to remember Wordsworth) constantly “rolls through all things”. And David is one of that small number. He truly has the healing qualities of an avatar. He is able, if you put yourself in his hands, to bring through the necessary energies that you can use to rebuild yourself and your life very quickly.

This type of experiential, transformative healing that David offers is very powerful and, when it is done with the purest of intentions, it has the potential to change lives in the very moment. But, in my experience, if a healer is not up to holding those energies or that healing space in the way that the individual client needs, then it can be very difficult for the person undergoing the healing to hold either the burst of healing energy, or the intuitive understanding that often comes with it, regarding what next to do to move forward successfully into their lives. This progression can be especially hard if the client has a deep-seated psychological hook to their illness which could, in most cases, make it very easy for them to drop back into those old habits of mind or emotional reactions which the illness feeds on.

And this is where I found David’s ability to suss out the ultimate root cause of an illness or syndrome to be totally life-changing. He took me back into the depths of my lifetime to pull out the offending “stuff” which had been holding me in blinkers, regardless of all the previous work I had done in trying to free myself from the tentacles of ME. So, suddenly I was able to see the wider picture, and experience a release of pent-up energies which had encircled me since birth. Those energies had helped to encode in me a set of reactions to life around me which also came from a conditioned sense of being unworthy of expressing my true Self or nature as a creative being. Altogether this had caused me to hold back with my own flow of creative energies. And over the decades this malfunctioning had exhausted me on all levels. Hence the ME symptoms.

Now, thankfully, I can honestly say that the work I’ve done with David in the four double-sessions I’ve seen him thus far has put me firmly back in the driving seat of my own life.

As I’ve said before, it’s not just during the sessions that wonderful shifts of understanding occur. It seems to me that David somehow “reprograms” my subtle bodies to react in ways that are beneficial to my healing process when I’m faced with what might otherwise be testing or stressful situations in between the sessions. This is a wholly new experience for me, and I feel privileged to be receiving this full-on help from such a dedicated healer. I know that this is as good as such help ever gets and, if I don’t take up this amazing chance now to integrate all that is being given to me to make me whole, then I’d end up free falling back into limbo. And I don’t intend to go there anymore.

Over the years I have experienced the often very helpful and enlightening effects of many different types of healing, but somehow I had never been able to keep a really strong foothold in true, lasting physical strength. But I trust David’s insight and his ability to see what is best for me to work with, in order to push on and attain more and more of my core Self, and to ground those higher energies which can otherwise be so easily blown away with the first gust of strong emotion. He has helped reprogram me to know that my own power is working for me again, not against me. And I trust once more in my own body’s processes, and in my own inner knowing to supply what I need to live my own life, in ways that ultimately bring fulfillment and a sense of belonging in the world.

For the first time since becoming ill, I feel again the once-familiar grounding energy of Earth as a constant in my life now. Not just as a sense of connection to my daily reality, but as a real energy available for me to draw upon, along with the starry stuff of my inner universe! I feel the warmth and flow of Earth’s nurturing love, just waiting to be expressed through me in all that I do. Just to feel that is humbling, and suddenly all the years of feeling apart from health, apart from this planet’s vibrant energy, just fall away.

So, I’ve made my decision to jump back into the river of mainstream life, and to trust in David’s flow of wisdom and dedicated purpose to help me as I start to swim again. After a long time floundering in the shallows, I can’t deny that it’s scary. But from what I’ve already experienced in the four short months that I’ve known David, scary isn’t necessarily bad--it more often than not indicates an area of challenge that, on a deeper level, is simply excitement.

And when we move with our excitement, all sorts of wonders occur. Including self-empowerment and enlightenment. I wish you joy in your own journey.
