"Last year at this time, my relationship was not going so well. I had to make a change in myself that I had been avoiding. I had recently divorced and was in a new relationship but old issues and behaviors kept coming up. I was still angry and bitter despite being in a different relationship. I took your anger management class because I had an issue that I needed to figure out how to handle. I learned so much from the class about myself, how to communicate my needs better, and how to be mindful. Thank you for your outstanding class and helping me to become the person I always wanted to become. My relationship is in a much better place now. Thank you from a very pleased student."

"Hi Dr. John! Of the many gifts for which I am grateful is the opportunity I've had to learn with and from you. Not only are the lessons helping me cope with my anger but I'm passing on the lessons to the men in my province with good results! Thanks for your commitment to service. "

"Without your teachings I would never have become the man to whom my fiance would say 'yes'. You have played a huge role in my healing, and I still use techniques that we worked on all the time to stay balanced. I still lose my balance at times, but it is so much easier to get back up. It is indeed possible for those who battle with mental health to discover which tools they need to carry in their tool belt. And it is important that they find people that can train them how to successfully use the tools, in the same way that apprentices learn from the masters of their trade. Thank you for taking the time to help me during my apprenticeship. I pay it forward regularly with you in mind."

"Thank you for your message. The successful healer is the one who puts himself “out of business” by providing the necessary remedy to effect a permanent cure. In my case, you did just that! I’ve incorporated your information and advice and have found the balance and Peace of mind to move forward in my life. I am grateful beyond words. I have recommended your website to people and will continue to do so, that’s a promise! Until then, I wish you all the best as you continue to reach out and facilitate healing to those who genuinely need you and are serious about growth and change. God bless you!"

"Each one of your methods works very well for me. I still have to remind myself to use them. However, I have found one which has more magic to it than the others. It is the compassion offered to others. I found that when I am thinking: " May you be healthy, may you be peaceful ... may you live with ease and well-being" in the presence of an otherwise angry person it has the power to calm them after I repeat these compassionate thoughts in my mind. After finding out how powerful this effect was, I tried it on Skype calls with highly confrontational people half way around the world. It worked like magic on them too. I am also proactively using several of the many excellent techniques you have empowered me with. I want you to know, dear Dr. John, that you have made a much calmer life possible for me. It is worth living like this. God bless you !"

"Let me take a moment to express my gratitude to you for your good work. Your kindness has been helpful in many ways, but specifically in giving me new tools to use in daily life. I took the Ultimate Anger Management Course and learned many excellent tools to a more mindful way of life when anger slips in. Now my anger is less intense and less frequent. I am also happier in general."
