“l honestly believed I couldn't be helped. I have struggled with depression and anxiety for most of my life so I was skeptical this program would do anything, but WOW to how I feel now. I literally do not have panic attacks anymore. I had no idea anxiety could be based on food I was eating. I actually have energy to get out of bed and be the mother and wife I wanted to be. Alena, thank you thank you thank you!"
