I must admit I was skeptical when a friend told me about his results with Brain State Technologies. I located Raquel who happens to be one of the best in the world. I am a psychologist, author and media guest so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Well, my eyesight improved dramatically, I can read fine print again. My sleep improved significantly, now I sleep a full eight hours, which I have never done before. I seem more organized and I haven’t had refined sugar since my first day with Raquel, that’s a miracle. I highly recommend Raquel to anyone who wants to improve their brain and their life.
After going through the series of sessions using Brainwave Optimization I have noticed a significant increase in my ability to meditate internally and to cast away anything that is a negative impact to my life. My initial reason for wanting to try Brainwave Optimization was my inability to have a good night’s sleep. Being a light sleeper normally made it very hard to get the required rest I needed every day. Working a full time job and having my own fitness studio made for long hours and usually resulted in my being very wired every evening. Since then I have been able to get a well rested and deep sleep at night. I have also noticed that my eyes are not tired from the strain of being up for extended hours. I can simply close them, concentrate and relieve the stress from all the computer work I also perform. Memory is sharper as I no longer have what I would call a “cluttered” mind with everything running together. My spiritual awareness is much deeper and I am able to just sit and meditate on what life is bringing my way. Through this meditation and a more balanced brain I can clearly envision what paths to take now and what can be put off until later without the thought that I have to complete everything, and by not completing something it is not the end and was never meant to be. The world will not spin backwards and you just keep moving forward. There is a reason for everything and everything has its reason. For improved Physical Health/Balance, I have seen a change in my energy levels and strength. I recently performed a bench press after not having performed one in over a year and noticed a 29% increase. I attribute this to the minds ability to provide an even clearer picture of what I wanted to accomplish. Thanks to Raquel Younglove and Brainwave Optimization, I am achieving more goals and maintaining a calmer outlook on life.
I would highly recommend Raquel’s BWO to anyone wishing to make significant changes in their life. I had extremely ingrained beliefs that I tried to resolve for 10 years in therapy, using EMDR and with prescription drugs. None of these approaches solved the problems. After my sessions with Raquel, I was finally able to release all of these issues. Since these issues were so ingrained (my psychiatrist mentioned they would be extremely difficult to overcome) it is a miracle they are gone. Even issues that were not on my agenda to resolve have been released! In addition, I used to think obsessively about some things, and with just four sessions this has been resolved. I am able to stop taking my anti-depressant and anti-anxiety medications that I have been taking for 10 years and I am no longer depressed or anxious. These issues were very stressful so finally being able to release them was a godsend. I am a much healthier person now that I have had BWO. I am very grateful to be able to move beyond these problems and would recommend Raquel to anyone wishing to resolve any issues.
I think about you often and remember my peaceful experience in Colorado with great joy. I am actually doing very well and getting ready to make some major life changes.
After I left you I definitely could tell a difference in my general outlook and overall attitude. I seem to have a calm surround me that I have not known in many years. My decision making is more precise and level of alertness and ability to be present in the moments of each day is drastically improved.
There is something else which is difficult to explain. I can't quite put my finger on it but I seem to have really shifted from my old rigid patterns and appear to be much more "footloose and fancy free". This is significant because most of my life I have always had to have a plan, know exactly what was mapped out ahead of me and would worry myself to death if there was even a hint of uncertainty. I lived and died by the daily planner and to get off schedule was a grave offense in my well directed days. Even reading those words now make me cringe at how regimented I was with everything including the minimal amount of time I allowed myself to relax. Truth be told, I didn’t know how to just "be".
Here's the interesting thing, I am in the middle of transitioning jobs, completely changing my career path, going back to school and moving across country again, and to the amazement of myself and just about everyone around me, I remain calm, cool and collected without a worry in the world. My faith could move mountains. I now know that everything will be ok despite having zero certainties ahead of me. This is living!
I did sort of a purging when I returned from Colorado. I cleaned out and began packing. I’ve done this many times over the years. Only this time it was different. I realized how very few "things" I needed to really function each day. In the past three months, I have minimized in every area of my life and now feel like I have "more" than I ever had before. By more I mean in the way of time for myself, more confidence, a clearer way forward, even if I don't know exactly what is ahead of me I feel good things and abundance all around.
I can say with absolute confidence that my time spent doing Brainwave Optimization training has enhanced the quality of my life and has allowed me the experience of regaining a peace of mind I thought would always be just outside my reach.
Raquel I can't thank you enough. Please feel free to share my testimony with all. I am hoping to come and see you again in the next year if all works out.
I’m a former Captain of U.S. Marines from the Gulf War era. This is an unsolicited testimonial to the profound benefits of Brainwave Optimization Training in helping me manage post traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury.
I’ve lived most of my post military life in such a state of hyper-vigilance that it has made being productive, self-care, much
less enjoying life’s sweeter things like relationship very difficult. BWO has brought significant relief. I have a much greater grounding in clarity, silence, and stillness and see that down-regulating my own nervous system is not always easy, but it is my choice.
The passing of my father and the end of another relationship put a huge strain on my system. Raquel Younglove and BWO showed up in my life right on time to make these transitions more graceful. Raquel’s warmth and clarity is very healing to be around and her professionalism makes scheduling sessions and completing them smooth and easy.
I believe BWO can benefit everyone and highly recommend it for veterans struggling to manage the miserably chaotic symptoms of PTSD and/or TBI.

Hi Raquel,
You have been on my mind so much lately, hope all is well with you.
You know how various scheduled yearly events remind us to think back to how it was during those events in years before? We just had our Colorado State Fair Cashmere Goat Show, which is held every Saturday of Labor Day weekend. It got me to remember back to previous State Fairs and how it was for me.
I am flooded with gratitude for you and your Brainwave Optimization work, the difference in me and the quality of my life is peasurable. I am enjoying happiness and healthiness I never dreamed possible: still effortlessly sober, which in itself is an amazing feat; minimal aches and pains; satisfyingly high energy levels; sufficient mental clarity to deal with complex situations.
And, recalling my first sessions with you still brings me a chuckle.
Love,
Ann
I am a 21 year old college student from Glenwood Springs, CO. When I was 19 I started having severe anxiety, which overtime turned into major depression. I stopped going to class and handing in work because I was having so many panic attacks. My worrying was so bad that I was unable to sleep for 2 weeks. I had to withdraw and come home because I couldn't function at all in school or social situations.
Over the last year and a half my family and I have tried everything to try and get me back on track. Medication, counseling, emotional freedom therapy, trama release exercise and EMDR. All of these things either didn't work at all or only lasted for a few weeks and then I was back in the dumps again. My father heard about Brain Training through a friend of his and we went down to Colorado Springs for a week session. I felt instantly better after the first 2 hour session!!! it was a miracle!!!. And it just got better after the days went on. (and I'll show you my brain graphs if you don't believe me haha)
After the initial assessment we tried to figure out what was the cause of this sudden change that happened in my life. My brain map said that I had a major imbalance between the left and right hemispheres of my brain. Raquel asked me if I had had any head traumas to either side of my head. I started listing where I had been hit in the head after each of my concussion and realized that all three had happened because I hit the left side of my head. We also realized that the last concussion I had was a few weeks before everything started going really bad for me. It was great to figure out the cause or leading factor that lead to this all happening.
I have been better than ever since my week session of brain training 3 months ago. I haven't felt depressed at all and haven't had a panic attack since!! I started volunteering at my high school teaching math and I really enjoy it. I am going to go back to school this next semester and study Math for Secondary Education. Everything is just falling into place it is wonderful!
The success hasn't just been mine either. Since I did brain training several of my family and friends have also done it and experienced similar life changing improvements after brain training.
I thank God for this miracle treatment, and Raquel for being such a kind, understanding, and knowledgeable brain state technician.
Hi Raquel, just a few words to congratulate you on the BRAINWAVE OPTIMAZATION program. I have achieved some of my goals to date and feel confident that the others are in process. It is difficult to explain the subtleties of the program; however, I must admit that I have more confidence and am able to generate thoughts and ideas more easily than before. Friends have noticed that I confidently contribute to conversations rather than let the conversation pass me by.
I also feel strength in myself that was not present before. The fight or flight response is certainly more fight. I am not a victim of circumstance anymore.
I am once again feeling the courage and high self-esteem that comes with creativity. Sometimes it’s like a high, I can do anything I WANT.
My depression has improved greatly. I have very few moments that I would say that I was sad and if I am experiencing sadness, it’s certainly for shorter periods of time.
My sleep has improved also. I have experienced several nights of uninterrupted sleep, gaining 4-6 hours rather than the 2 hours which had been the norm.
I believe that my anxiety and calm have also improved; I can see that in the absolute confidence that I have about managing anything that may come along. This has been the greatest gift of the program. I feel like a member of the human race. I have thoughts and ideas that I am able to verbalize with defined clarity.
My goals were as follows:
1. Overcome depression/ increase motivation.....5, before the program easily a 2.
2. Improve sleep.....6, before the program it was around 2.
3. Improvement in social interactions....7, before program was 4.
4. Creativity....8, before program was a difficult 5.
5. Calm and anxiety....We are still working to improve this; however I am more capable of expressing myself in regard to anger, disappointment and disbelief. I feel that the door has been opened for expression and that calm will result from this. I have NO doubt that is what is happening to me. Before the program I was a 4 and now I believe that I am a 7 and on my way 10.
Thank you so much for your kind and gentle approach. I felt safe with you as I went through the program and I believe that helped create the atmosphere for a successful experience.
I feel the Brainwave Optimization sessions, with you, improved the overall quality of my life. I have noticed an impressive increase in my ability to concentrate on conversations. I feel very focused, as if my complete attention is with my children or grandchildren, when I am with or talking to them. This focus feels effortless and the outcome has been a deeper more genuine and enriched connection with both my daughters and grandchildren. I honestly didn't think these relationships could get much better.
My overall well-being has improved and continues to improve daily. I feel that my spiritual well-being was elevated as a result of my Brainwave Optimization sessions with Raquel.
With Sincere Gratitude and Optimism,
MK
I have had issues with anxiety, depression and feeling overwhelmed with my life on and off for many years. I had lost my passion for life and the motivation to succeed and finish even small goals or tasks I had set for myself. I was especially struggling in my new marriage of 5 years, feeling hopeless and unsure of the future.
After completing my first 10 sessions I began to feel more relaxed, less confused and happier than I had felt most my life. I felt I could make decisions easier, felt hope for my marriage and for the first time in my marriage felt I could express my feelings honestly and without all the heightened emotions I had dealt with in the past.
I feel more focused and am able to relax more than I have in years.
Real Time Brain Balancing has helped me more than any counseling session or program I have completed in the past.
Raquel Younglove was very professional and compassionate with me through the whole process and I would recommend Bridge to Happiness to anyone who desires to be free from depression, or is lacking motivation or focus, or who is dealing with addiction or fears.
When I did Brainwave Optimization, I was at the end of my rope with trying to accomplish my deepest desires for my spiritual and material life. It seemed like no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get out of negative thinking, self judgment and feelings of unworthiness. I felt like my life was a waste. Since the training, I am in control of my thoughts, and therefore the negative judgments and outcomes are no longer running me. The changes in some ways seem subtle, almost like I can't even believe I was stuck in so much absurdity before, but I know I was because I have journals that expressed where I was at with my ability to change negative patterns and behaviors. It truly is a feeling of being more balanced."
Dear Raquel,
Thank you so much for sensitive work with the Brain State training. I feel that all my goals were met in a great egree including a few extras which I didn't expect ! I am grateful to have had the 10 sessions in one week. You are a joy to work with!
Some of the benefits I experience: less identification in general...for example...instead of being thrown into a full blown panic I have some distance now; instead of jumping to conclusions and/or' expecting the worst' I question the negative belief pattern; in a nutshell it feels like the brain training gave me a kind of 'reality check thermostat'. If I start to get distracted/confused when too many tasks are looming I can step back, slow down and ask 'what is the priority here'; This has created a more peaceful existence for me and hopefully others around me as well. I am also more satisfied eating appropriately and less addicted to large amounts of sugar. It feels like these unconscious patterns in all areas have been lessened.
Since I last saw you many good things have occurred: A proposal for a grant came through after several months of preparation, inner turmoil, and struggle. I've taken steps to regain better health and am inspired to continue.
My work has been increasing which in turn has me less dependent on others. I feel, generally, less caught in the survival fears. I am also able to catch myself getting stressed...and going into a downward spiral with negative thinking. I very much appreciated your presence in doing this work.
I would love to come back!
Blessings your way Raquel!

Unfortunately, I have had depression issues and have been on medication and engaged in talk therapy since the age of 20. I was introduced to BST through several friends who saw that those methods were not working and I was getting worse. They felt BST would give me the help I needed and had been searching for. After going online I chose to work with Raquel. After seeing her picture and reading her background I felt an instant connection that she was the right choice for me. I completed a one week "intensive" but did not feel the effects until almost 3 weeks later. It was as though a cloud had lifted. I continue to be amazed by my overall mood, interactions and clarity of mind - and the list continues to grow. I have been so inspired by my experience that I've decided to train and become an affiliate with BST. I cannot wait to share what I've experienced and learned with everyone who wants a better life.
I am back from Florida and life is rather busy right now. I will tell you that I have been functioning from a place of "The Universe is Friendly" for several weeks now and I find myself feeling so filled with gratitude and general happiness. I am optimistic about having a healthy, slim and flexible body. Life is good. Thank you so much, I tell friends about you. When the time is right I might have another round of sessions.
Sending you and your Little Man a Big Hug!
Throughout the journey of discovering who I am, I’ve encountered many challenges. Among those challenges, the greatest struggles have been with depression and anxiety which externalized into the biggest struggle of all, addiction. Of all the ways I’ve tried to arrest these problems, the route I took before getting brain training was definitely complex yet unsuccessful. I tried a combination of therapy and medication through my mental health doctor, an intensive outpatient program with methadone, and an NA program on the side, all simultaneously. It all seemed to decrease my anxiety and stress externally while increasing it internally, leaving me temporarily okay. It was not until I found brain training that the origin of my problems were all addressed and resolved.
Brain training helped me realize that even with all the will power in the world, an unbalanced brain causes an extreme amount of resistance towards fighting the things it was conditioned to do through stress, trauma, and drug use. Overall, brain training has helped my body learn how to release fear, stress, and anxiety as it’s initially coming, in turn making me more productive in my day-to-day life because I no longer feel like I have mental paralysis. It really does teach your brain how to tell the body to recover faster and more efficiently. I sleep better, exercise more, and laugh a lot easier now that aspects of my brain like serotonin and any other thing that was unbalanced is now in healthy proportion.
Brain training has definitely helped me with communication. I hardly ever get into arguments with my family or feel like raising my voice is my only option because I always felt like I was in survival mode. I can see way more of the actual meaning behind people’s words now than before when I was cloudy, and in terms of expressing myself, I am way more focused and succinct. Yet another great thing that I pulled out of the brain training was that I don’t overanalyze and microscope everything in my life that happens to me or is going on around me, which is ironic because I can see way more now about things that were going on for years with myself and in situations that I never could see before. My brain works nowhere near as hard to help me achieve much more.
With my addiction alone, the brain training helped me get off methadone successfully which people can take up to six months to withdraw from alone, and that’s just the withdrawal end of it. I was able to quit smoking marijuana after smoking it daily for years and years. I quit using opiates which my addiction was mainly attached to after it being tremendously hard for so long to quit. My cravings no longer grabbed at me and were so easy to not identify with and let float on by until eventually the cravings were less and less and less. Brain training made it a whole new ball game with my addiction. It no longer controlled me. I could control it, until there was nothing left to control because my body and brain automatically took care of any craving or momentary urge almost subconsciously on a day it might’ve come up, so my addiction felt like a completely different problem with a completely different name, and felt more like a fly I could brush off rather than a leech I needed to surgically remove. All in all, no matter what stressful thing that has happened to me or whatever turmoil my life might be in at any moment, I can always find a place inside of myself that I can find peace, be serene, and will always know that I am okay, which I believe everyone should have.
Testimonial: Raquel: When I first started the Brain State Conditioning, I must admit that I was a bit skeptical. I will say that you answered all of the questions that I had. Your knowledge of this technology is fantastic. You made me feel very special, which is a breath of fresh air and something that one doesn't get at most facilities. I started a candida yeast cleanse after receiving 15 treatments with you. This is not an easy cleanse to do. There is no sugar, pork, grains, nuts, alcohol, starches, artificial sweetners, dairy. So you can see I had to learn how to eat in a completely different way. There is no doubt in my mind that I would have never succeeded without the 15 sessions of the Brain State Conditioning. Something else that I noticed that there is less confusion in my thinking, more clarity in my daily life. I am looking forward to returning to your facility and receiving some more conditioning. I am so very thankful that you decided to become a technician, Raquel, you are the best and I really mean that.
Take care and God Bless You.
Testimonial: I'm very happy to share my experience with Bridge to Health & Happiness. I must admit when I first walked into your office I didn't know for sure what I was getting into. However, I sensed right off that your heart was sincere and that you are truly trying to help people with whatever their particular needs might be. I was especially impressed with the soothing, calming environment that you provide to put people at ease when entering the unknown. You explained completely and thoroughly what I could possibly expect from each session that was customized for my specific goals and needs. Doing 15 sessions in 5 days was a bit exhausting yet exhilarating. The most profound result I have noticed since returning home is my energy level has skyrocketed. Allen and I embarked on a cleanse and diet protocol with a dogged determination and commitment level like never before! Before our sessions with you it was always such a struggle with little or no success. I'm excited to report that to date Allen has lost 16 pounds and I have lost 12 pounds! At 55 years old I feel like I have my second wind with endless possibilities for the future! I'm anxious to visit you again soon.
Thank you for providing "Brain State Conditioning" in a caring, compassionate way.
Sending a big hug!
Many Rich Blessings,

“Before starting sessions with Bridge to Health & Happiness, I was depressed and had been for nearly two years. I could not sleep, was unproductive, unmotivated and could not snap out of it after going through a very difficult divorce. Since doing sessions, I am no longer depressed, what used to take me three days to get done, I now get done in three hours. My sleep has more than doubled. I feel hopeful, I feel happy. “Things” don’t bother me, they just roll off. I don’t feel stressed by things anymore. Working with Bridge to Health & Happiness utilizing Brain State Conditioning has completely changed my daily quality of life. I’m so much more productive, alive, focused, hopeful and motivated.”
When I started this process I was not sure what to expect. I knew from the information that a lot could happen and my expectation was that I would get all that was there for me. I knew I wanted the area in my brain that was damaged with an old head injury healed. I knew that I wanted to grow spiritually and develop my healing talents to a greater degree. What I received was so much more than I could dream. My asthma is better, I remember to breathe, I am so much more at peace, I am more focused and my memory is better. I had a knee injury that I did not know that this would help, and I am walking better. This is the greatest gift I have ever received. Thanks Raquel!
