This beautiful pansy card came a while back from my special friend, but I haven't shared it yet. Seeing as I'm trying to be a more frequent poster on this blog, I decided to share this quickly. Can you see why it made my day both when I received it and when I found it again while I was cleaning off my computer desk today?
Best wishes for a wonderful Sabbath rest,
Dawn
Dear Dawn,
Thank you for the great sessions. I am including a check for 2 sessions and also for a sleep machine for X & Y's anniversary gift. You can just mail it to their address when you get one. Thanks!
Love,
K
I am praying for you dear, beautiful lady.

So not perfect
Anyone who knows me well knows how I struggle with procrastination. The thinking goes like this, "Well, I don't have time to do that perfectly now, so I'll just do it later." Then, as you all know, it doesn't get done at all.
That's how I feel about posting on this blog. There is so much that I want to say about each client's growth and progress that it seems insurmountable to do it justice. Therefore, I don't do it at all. Well, I got a note in the mail that I just HAVE to share with you so, please forgive the imperfect presentation.
I've been working with a young man about 24 years old who had surgery at age 5. He never recovered but didn't realize that this is what was holding him back in life in numerous ways. He started sessions with me in '09 and then quit for some reason. Then a few months ago he called and was desparate. To me, that slight tinge of "Wishing I was dead" made me take it seriously and I worked him in that evening.
He's had 3 sessions close together now and is doing so much better already. He said during his lasts session, "Why does BodyTalk work so well in comparison to other modalities?"
I explained that the brain knows exactly what the body needs done to correct ANY problem--physical or emotional. Stress weakens the communication between the brain and the body, though, and then things remain uncorrected. In a BT session, I tune into what the body is needing the brain to know about it's condition. By tapping this information into the brain and heart, I let the brain know what's going on with the body and then the brain gets to work repairing the damage. It's that simple.
Anyway, this young man's mom sent me a $200 check with a note that said, "Thanks for helping my son. XXXXX" As you can guess, the note means more to me than the check. However, I am learning to appreciate making the money that I need to continue my education; pay my office rent; and buy my needed health and beauty care items. It truly IS nice to know how to take care of myself and it's a total delight to see other's learn how to do so as well. Praise the Lord for all that He has taught me of His healing ways!

Unsolicited
Hi everyone,
I'm sorry that I've been so busy working with folks here lately that this spot in cyberspace has been neglected. The Lord must have wanted me to get back to sharing His healing of folks that I work with, though, as this email came unsolicited to me recently.
May these words give you hope if you suffer from low self-worth and the resulting emotional stress which leads to physical stress.
If you have a story that you'd like to share with others, PLEASE send it to me at: savedbybodytalk@gmail.com. I'll post it here with only your initials unless you request that I use your full name.
I have neither the money, nor the desire to advertise, so the Lord is building my business through word of mouth. Folks who have been blessed through LINKS TO HEALING share their story here so that others can have the hope that is available through BodyTalk + radionics too.
I ask your continued prayers for my health, strength, and clarity of my mind as I work with people every day (except on the Sabbath). May God bless you--both for helping with the work through your prayers AND through the sharing of your healing here to give others hope.
Have a wonderful day!
Dawn
TESTIMONY FROM: S. G.
I HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR A LONG TIME FOR HEALING: SPIRITUALLY, MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY!
I FEEL GOD HAS BEEN GUIDING ME AND LEADING DOWN THE PATH I NEED TO GO. A FRIEND RECOMMENDED FOR ME TO GO
TO A BODY TALK PERSON, THAT PERSON BEING DAWN BORNEMANN.
I HAVE BEEN GOING TO DAWN FOR ALMOST A YEAR, MORE OFTEN IN THE BEGINNING, AND NOW ABOUT ONCE A MONTH.
I HAVE TO SAY THAT I FEEL BETTER THAN I HAVE FELT ALL MY LIFE. IT HAS ALLOWED ME TO GET RID OF PAST GUILT AND OF
PAST HURTS (SOME OF WHICH I THOUGHT I HAD ALREADY DEALT WITH) BUT, APPARENTLY WERE STILL IN MY SUBCONSCIOUS.
I TRULY BELIEVE THAT ANGER AND HURT, AND LOW SELF ESTEEM EFFECT ONES HEALTH-MORE THAN A PERSON CAN EVEN IMAGINE!
MY BROTHER GOT CANCER OF THE GALLBLADDER, WHICH ADVANCED TO THE LIVER-HE WAS VERY ANGRY AT EVERYONE, INCLUDING
GOD, WHICH I BELIEVE BROUGHT THE ONSET OF CANCER.
BODYTALK HAS MADE ME FEEL FORGIVENESS FOR OTHERS, AND FOR MYSELF, THUS GIVING ME CONFIDENCE IN MAKING NEW DECISIONS,
ALSO HAVING MORE CONFIDENCE TO SAY "NO" TO THINGS THAT I DON'T AGREE WITH, AND FAITH THAT GOD LEADS US DOWN A ROAD-
SOMETIMES WITH BUMPS IN IT, BUT WILL GUIDE US THROUGH WHATEVER HE LEADS US TO. IN SITUATIONS OF LIFE-SOMETIMES WE ARE A
BLESSING IN THE SITUATION, SOMETIMES WE ARE TO BE BLESSED, AND SOMETIMES BOTH. EACH DAY IS A PREPARATION FOR THE NEXT!
WE SHOULD TAKE EACH DAY AS A BLESSING, AND CHERISH IT-WE NEVER KNOW WHEN OUR JOURNEY ON EARTH IS TO END!
IN DOING BODYTALK, A PERSON NEEDS TO CLEAR THE MIND AND RELAX TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THE EXPERIENCE.

No surgery
I am crying tears of joy right now. I just received this email from a newly married young woman who has had serious fertility problems which we have been working on in her BodyTalk sessions. Although she's not pregnant YET, this is wonderful news which I simply HAD to share with you!
Hi Dawn!
Oh yes I think you can wait until Monday!:) But I can tell you today! I'm not pregnant if that's what you were thinking!:)
But I went to the doctor on Thursday and all the abnormal cells that were on my cervix are gone! It's a miracle because the doctor was going to do the LEEP procedure on me and then said I'm just going to give you a free colposcopy just to make sure it's still in the same area.
She looked and was shocked and said "I can't see anything abnormal, nothing at all, it's looks amazingly great!"
She was so amazed and said" Well, you are good to go!"
I knew it could have only been God because things don't just go away like that! I'm sooooooo happy!!!! The doctor did another pap smear just to see if all the cells are normal. I will know on Monday if they are!
I'm just praising the Lord because I didn't want anything cut out of me and especially since you asked my body if I should and it said not to! I know the Lord used you and Body Talk to help my body!!! I thought I would tell you today since it's Sabbath!
Praise God for His incredible healing power!!!!

Too good not to post
OK, I realize that I am horribly behind with posting here but it's not for lack of good news. It's just that I think that I must post the whole story in order for people to be impressed with the client's progress. That almost always scares me away from posting, as there are always more sessions to be done, and whole stories take lots of time. It seems that this ought to be priority to writing about them.
However, yesterday afternoon I heard such wonderful news that I decided that I will very briefly write about it here.
This lady is named Barb and she has lived in North Dakota for 6 years. Ever since she moved here she has had sinus troubles and I mean SERIOUS sinus troubles. Now that's a looong time to be stuffed up.
Well, Dr. Faye sent Barb to me and I just did my thing which means that I combined radionics with Barb's radionics session. Yesterday was Barb's third session and she came in with a big grin. As soon as she talked, I could tell that the pressure in her head was less than it had been.
When Barb was lying on my table, I asked her this question. "Now say that on your first session, your sinus pain was 100%. What percent of that amount is the pressure in your head today?" I had hoped that she would say at least 90% meaning that 10% of her agony was gone.
You have to imagine how gloriously happy I was when Barb said, "It's about 50% of what it was a month ago at my first session."
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Praise the Lord for His miraculous healing power!!!

Good report card
I must apologize for leaving this place in cyberspace gloomy for so long. It's just that I've been swamped with things going on here on the farm; trying to find a new office in Bismarck; and getting things moving forward with my dad's auction sale.
I am by no means comfortless. Yesterday, my good friends Mr. G. F. and Mrs. G. F. (I just love them AND their names) encouraged me to keep going. They also gave me a lead which brought me to my new office space in Bismarck last night. THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SHARE THAT TIP YESTERDAY Mr. G. F.!!! I'll send the address soon. :)
Here are the thoughts that they shared with me when we were battling with the ND Board of Massage--Mr. G. F.'s first. You must imagine the blessing that these words were to me after having come to such a low point as I was at in my last post.
I, XXXXXX, a North Dakota resident, living at XXXXXXXXX am a BodyTalk client of Dawn Bornemann. BodyTalk has helped me be releasing a tight muscle of the heart without any massage--only BodyTalk. I no longer have any pain or tightness of the heart.
Also it has helped me with being more comfortable around people I work with and meet. This was also achieved by BodyTalk and no massage.
I have had no ill side-affects or pain from any of the sessions.
I wish to continue BodyTalk sessions, as I know it helps and has helped me a lot. I honestly recommend BodyTalk to anyone.
May we praise our Heavenly Father that someone has made this BodyTalk as well as all massage therapists and doctors who are able to help the ill. Remember with our ageing population, we can use all of the help that we can get to keep medical costs down AND also so that doctors are not overwhelmed with too many patients.
Remember our Heavenly Father made us and is able to help us through others. As we have doctors, massage therapists, dentists, eye doctors, this is another way that we can help each other.
And our Heavenly Father will bless you as you approve this BodyTalk to be in North Dakota.
As Jesus has said, "As you have helped the least of my brethren, so you also have helped me!
Sincerely,
Mr. G. F.
This Mrs. G. F. wrote when we were tangling with the Massage Board.
I, XXXXXXXXXX, a North Dakota resident living at XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX am a BodyTalk client of Dawn Bornemann. She has helped me with my nervousness and being self-confident in my daily life. She has done this without massage, only with BodyTalk sessions.
I have had no side-affects or pain from the sessions.
I wish to continue BodyTalk sessions and I recommend them to anyone.
I find that their price of a session is comparable to a massage session.
Please keep BodyTalk in North Dakota so our medical doctors can have more time to properly help the more seriously ill people.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Mrs. G. F.
So you see, the Lord HAS blessed me with these dear friends. Also, there is the young woman who sleeps through her cycle now; the woman who has had 2 weeks pain free from the adhesions that have plagued her for 20 years; another man whose decade long heart pain went away after 3 sessions; a woman who coughed for 20 years now going through a conference without coughing most of the time; a home school mom who has more courage than she's ever known she had; a boy whose ADHD is diminishing; a young girl whose jaw pain decreased 50% after her first session; a woman with dizziness which ended after 2 sessions; a widow finding peace with herself in regards to her deceased husband's abuse of her. Also rashes are disappearing; pregnancies are going better than ever before; relationships are improving; pain is subsiding; energy levels are increasing; anger is evaporating; friendships are developing; brothers are saying kind things to sisters; eye-sight is improving; joint mobility is increasing; smiles are spreading; grief is being shared and released; and lastly I simply MUST include this email that I received after the first session I did on a neighbor a few weeks ago.
Hi Dawn,
I dropped some cash off with one of your sons today. It has $75 cash in there. There is a friend of mine that I would like to pay for her 1st and 2nd session. I hope that's the right amount. If not, let me know. I told her I would pay for her 1st session. But decided to pay for her 2nd session also. If she doesn't like it for some reason, I know I could use the $30 for my next session. But would prefer her to have it.
If you could give her a call when you get a chance, that would be great. If you need to get her at work, that number is XXX-XXXX.
Thanks for all you do Dawn. I feel GREAT..my mind feels GREAT! Thank you for sharing your gift with others.
This comment, "My mind feels GREAT!" is probably one of the greatest joys that I can think of. After having dealt with a poorly balanced mind of my own for so long, it gives me GREAT JOY to think that I can help other's minds to feel great through this incredible healing modality called BODYTALK! First the mind heals and then it heals the body naturally. It's an awe-inspiring process that I have come to be a part of through my BodyTalk business--LINKS TO HEALING!
If you're pondering giving BodyTalk a try, feel free to leave a comment here with your email address. I've had the training now to do sessions on anyone anywhere in the world right here in the safety of my own home. WHO CAN BEAT A DEAL LIKE THAT? :)
I praise the one who made us all and knows exactly what we need to be the very best that we can be for HIM!!! I welcome you as one of my BodyTalk clients!!!!
HAPPY SPRING!

Another failure
Today I received an email from a client saying that he is putting his BodyTalk sessions on hold because he is so busy right now. After 2 sessions, the heart pain that he "Always" had, went away. I guess I'd call that a success, especially since it didn't come back at all after the third session.
So, why is he putting his healing and growth on hold? Why did a relative of mine decide to live with her diabetes rather than see if BT would help her? Why did the lady from my home town drop out after she was getting such fantastic results? Why does one family member come to me, but take another family member to the system? Why did a friend bury his wife instead of checking out BodyTalk--especially since I offered it to them for free in return for a favor? Why would a church friend start sessions; feel much better; and then quit?
In essence, I have come to the point where I have to ask myself, "Dawn, what are you doing wrong?" As always, when I am in desperation, I go to the Lord and ask Him to show me the answers. This is where He took me today. This is another quote from the great BT instructor that I quoted from yesterday. Perhaps here is something to help me grasp the answer to my question, "What am I doing wrong?"
For new clients you should really consider booking their first three appointments one week apart. You may find that two weeks apart works well for your style of practice, but longer than two weeks makes it very hard for you to create a rapport with the client.
When somebody has a serious or acute condition, one week sessions are strongly indicated. They need to be monitored and they really need to feel supported.The very nature of BodyTalk, being non-invasive and respectful, by asking what the body wants to address rather than imposing an agenda, is in and of itself an incredibly supportive activity for somebody facing a significant health challenge to go through. Don't deny your clients that support just because of your fears of inadequacy!
Does this mean that He is showing me that I have been TOO lax in encouraging others to book sessions because of my fear that I will seem like I am pushing BT on people? Here is another quote from that post that made me wonder if I NEED to give people a little bit of a nudge at times.
The answer to the question is confidence and enthusiasm. It is not really what you say - and people don't need a long explanation of the theory. They are sold by your sincerely expressed statement that this therapy works.
The most important thing is to make sure that you take measurements that they can see before all of their sessions. This could be osteopathic evaluation or them rating their symptoms on an intake form. Make a list of important symptoms that they rated on their first intake form and ask them at the beginning of each session "How are your headaches, can you rate them from one to ten".
If people still have pain, they still have pain. For them to think about how bad it used to be is actually unhealthy - it is your job as the practitioner to help your clients to see incremental changes and progress. Make sure you review their progress against their previous ratings, and show them that they are getting better. The most successful practitioners know how important this part of practice is and have some way of evaluating and communicating results to their clients. You can be the best healer in the world but you will not have a busy practice if you don't track your client's progress and share it with them.
When you track your client's progress and help them see it, you can see how effective your sessions are. When you know that your sessions work, you can be confident. You know it works, and your knowing is more important than your words when it comes to booking that first session.
I KNOW my sessions work. My clients know my sessions work. Still they cancel out. I have to wonder if it has to do with the tough GERMAN people around here. Sometimes I honestly think that they are PROUD when they can tell how much they have endured. I know that that is how I used to think.
All of this makes me wonder what makes one person want to get well while the other one WANTS TO STAY SICK!!! How can I tell them apart so that I can spare myself lots of agony? How can I make myself NOT care when people choose to suffer or to die? I simply cannot come up with an answer to that problem.
To be honest, this is one of the days when I seriously ponder quitting offering my services to the world. Maybe it would be best for me to just go back to being a home school mom and forget about the sick--go back to thinking that organic food and herbs can heal anyone of anything!!!!!
I know that nobody will most likely ever read this anyway, so it's especially helpful to spill my guts tonight. IF someone does read this and IF you have any words of advice for me, could you PLEASE use plain English? My brain is whacked out by all of these super spiritual people today who think that if they use enough fancy phrases, they'll seem REALLY SMART!!! OH BOTHER!
Discouraged,
Dawn

Does this mean that He is showing me that I have been TOO lax in encouraging others to book sessions because of my fear that I will seem like I am pushing BT on people? Here is another quote from that post that made me wonder if I NEED to give people a little bit of a nudge at times.
The answer to the question is confidence and enthusiasm. It is not really what you say - and people don't need a long explanation of the theory. They are sold by your sincerely expressed statement that this therapy works.
The most important thing is to make sure that you take measurements that they can see before all of their sessions. This could be osteopathic evaluation or them rating their symptoms on an intake form. Make a list of important symptoms that they rated on their first intake form and ask them at the beginning of each session "How are your headaches, can you rate them from one to ten".
If people still have pain, they still have pain. For them to think about how bad it used to be is actually unhealthy - it is your job as the practitioner to help your clients to see incremental changes and progress. Make sure you review their progress against their previous ratings, and show them that they are getting better. The most successful practitioners know how important this part of practice is and have some way of evaluating and communicating results to their clients. You can be the best healer in the world but you will not have a busy practice if you don't track your client's progress and share it with them.
When you track your client's progress and help them see it, you can see how effective your sessions are. When you know that your sessions work, you can be confident. You know it works, and your knowing is more important than your words when it comes to booking that first session.
I KNOW my sessions work. My clients know my sessions work. Still they cancel out. I have to wonder if it has to do with the tough GERMAN people around here. Sometimes I honestly think that they are PROUD when they can tell how much they have endured. I know that that is how I used to think.
All of this makes me wonder what makes one person want to get well while the other one WANTS TO STAY SICK!!! How can I tell them apart so that I can spare myself lots of agony? How can I make myself NOT care when people choose to suffer or to die? I simply cannot come up with an answer to that problem.
To be honest, this is one of the days when I seriously ponder quitting offering my services to the world. Maybe it would be best for me to just go back to being a home school mom and forget about the sick--go back to thinking that organic food and herbs can heal anyone of anything!!!!!
I know that nobody will most likely ever read this anyway, so it's especially helpful to spill my guts tonight. IF someone does read this and IF you have any words of advice for me, could you PLEASE use plain English? My brain is whacked out by all of these super spiritual people today who think that if they use enough fancy phrases, they'll seem REALLY SMART!!! OH BOTHER!
Discouraged,
Dawn
