It works!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 22, 2013

This book was recommended to me and my husband by a friend. We purchased it as a Kindle book. It is well designed, formatted and edited in that edition.

It has been known for many decades now in both mainstream and alternative medicine that stress is a major contributor--and sometimes a cause--of essentially every known disease. The stress response is also known as the fight-or-flight response, anxiety, adrenaline, or just plain, old fear.

In my experience using the healing code (HC), it works fantastically for shutting off a fight-or-flight switch that is stuck in the "on" position. In my own case, I had been experiencing intense situational stress and anxiety from almost two years of caretaking of my husband. He received a hip injury in a car accident over 11 years ago and has been in unremitting pain ever since that surgery, physical therapy, and countless other healing interventions have not helped. And his situation seriously worsened for no discernible reason two years ago, causing him great despondency since no health-care provider mainstream or alternative could help him.

Within the first 24 hours of my using the HC as taught in this book, my fight-or-flight stress switch was turned "off," and my mind was at peace. It was like a magic wand for me personally. As if I'd received a constant dose of some kind of natural tranquilizer that has zero side effects because my own body manufactures it.

Over the years I have done many things for stress, for example, meditation, yoga, deep breathing, soothing music, laughter therapy, aerobic exercise, excellent diet and nutraceuticals--you name it. Nothing, and I mean *nothing*, has ever worked as deeply and as quickly as the HC to remove deep-seated stress and anxiety. In addition to making me more mentally and emotionally flexible in daily life, using the HC has completely eliminated my occasional bouts of stress/anxiety-induced insomnia.

As for my husband, he also has experienced noticeable improvement in the stress and anxiety produced by his constant pain. Though he states that the pain itself has not yet decreased noticeably, it is a well known fact in the field of pain management (and in the field of natural childbirth) that one's attitude toward pain strongly affects one's ability to tolerate it. In addition, when anxiety levels rise, the stress chemicals themselves can physically increase pain by tightening muscles in every part of the body.

Sometimes it is hard to see everything a healing technique does for ourselves and it helps to have an outside observer. As for me, my husband says that the lessening of my anxiety is obvious, and it makes him feel less anxious. It also has made our relationship much more natural and relaxed and not constantly focused on almost nothing but his pain. My adult children have also commented on how much calmer I am now.

Here is what I have noticed viewing my husband on the outside: In spite of him saying his pain is still there, his whole demeanor has drastically changed. His expression is calm and peaceful. His posture, instead of being hunched over, is straight and firm. His general health is excellent, and even on nights when he doesn't sleep well because of the pain, he can still work out at the pool at our gym for an hour to an hour and a half. He cannot sit because of his hip injury and can only lie on his right side, which in itself causes pressure pain. To relieve the pressure pain during his waking hours, about 50% of the time he has to stand or walk around. That type of frequent motion requires excellent stamina, which has improved for him since using the HC. Best of all, he has regained hope rather than living in quiet despair--and hope is everything when one suffers from a chronic pain condition.

My husband wanted further coaching on the HC besides what is contained in this book, so he visited the author's website and located a trained HC coach. He paid $200 to receive four 30-minute sessions conducted by phone (it is possible to pay for more or less sessions than that). Doing this has not been necessary for me, because I continue to get terrific results faithfully practicing the HC from this book as prescribed, for six minutes three times per day. It is totally up to the individual discretion of each person using the HC if they want to do solely what is in this book or seek more training. So far my husband has had one session in which he received individually tailored, "advanced" HC geared to his own specific issues. He is using that version of the HC rather than the one in the book. He consistently does it as instructed on a daily basis. Both of us plan to keep doing HC indefinitely. It makes no sense to us to stop when the constant stress bombarding us in our personal lives as well as coming from the frantic world we all live in isn't going to go away in the foreseeable future.

Where do the healing codes really come from?

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 30, 2013

In 2001 Alex Loyd "discovered" the healing codes when "God downloaded into my mind and heart what we now call the Healing Codes". And there you have it, from the very beginning you have to take some things on this book on faith alone for I'm not aware of any scientific way and beyond any doubt to prove that the Healing Codes were downloaded into Alex's mind and heart by God himself. Now after reading the book and many of Alex's comments here in Amazon I've got the feeling he may truly believe this. Maybe will never know for sure. One of the problems I have with the book is when the author states that this is an "absolutely new discovery" and that it is "completely different". If it is energy healing to star with then it is not an absolutely new discovery at all. How can the author say that, it is infuriating. Short of stating that there are four healing centers which the codes activate there is no real explanation behind them. The effects may be quantifiable, and there may be results, but a comprehensive explanation of how it works is sorely lacking. He says is not about energy meridians or chakras but those are just words. Many people believe the chakras actually refer endocrine glands in the body so it's not far fetched to replace Alex's choice of words (i.e. healing centers for the words energy centers or chakras or whatever). His system is completely different yet people again and again bring up EFT. Why? Because they strike them as SIMILAR. Therefore this is not completely different. I know many users of EFT have said that the methods are not the same, and they are right they are NOT IDENTICAL, but you can not say that the Healing Codes are COMPLETELY different. They're both classified as energy systems, in both you use your hands and even place them in some cases in the same general area (near the temples or between the eyebrows). So please don't use the words "absolutely" and "completely" so liberally. Now Alex says that they are different because EFT takes care of emotional issues and the Healing Codes of spiritual issues (by the way whenever I paraphrase Alex or quote him is from his book or his comments here on Amazon, you can corroborate it all by yourself). But what are spiritual issues? In an Amazon comment Alex states "what I call spiritual issues - unforgiveness, self-worth, rejection, fear, anger, etc.". Aren't those emotions? So as far as the Healing Codes being COMPLETELY they're not.
And it bears repeating I'm not saying they're IDENTICAL either, in many regards they take a different focus. But if two persons learned to play the piano using two different methodologies, they still learned how to read music, they still play using the hands, and using the same instrument and accomplished the same goal. This is what I feel the Healing Codes are, Alex's version of energy healing.
If you read Gary Craig's EFT manual he acknowledges the pioneers of energy healing from thousands of years ago and his contemporary influences too. I think Alex should've done the same, but he just states that the healing codes "was given to me as a gift of God in 2001". Now it should be interesting to the readers to know that Alex and Ben were involved in energy healing methodologies BEFORE the healing codes and hopefully you will not be blind to the the fact that the healing codes and those other methodologies have a LOT of COMMON ground (same ingredients different recipe). That fact is even acknowledged by the authors themselves; Ben even states in the book that he was trained in Thought Field Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique or Quantum Technique to mention some. But they don't give any credit to that as a basis to the healing codes because the healing codes are an "ABSOLUTELY NEW DISCOVERY'' and a "gift of God".
Now Alex recommends himself these therapies like EFT when someone mentions them, but he repeats again and again that the healing codes are something different. He may even believe it (I wouldn't for one).
EFT is a healing energy technique by Gary Craig that is based on the work of Dr. Callahan and his energy tapping techniques, Craig states "My contribution, EFT, is an elegantly simple version of energy tapping procedures". I would've like Alex to state something similar much more than the story of being a God vessel to which God himself downloaded this COMPLETELY different tool for healing (and for all I know, I'll say it again, Alex may believe this himself). The reader should also be aware that Alex was a student of the Callahan methodology, TFT, in 1999. Alex even states in a comment here in Amazon that he was the cofounder of Quantum Techniques with Stephen Daniel who himself was a Callahan student in 1996 (you can check it out in the TFT website about Alex and Daniel receiving such training). For what I've read Quantum Techniques was founded in 1998 a project Alex abandoned after validating his own special brand called the healing codes.
So to sum it all up i think the authors of The Healing Codes are not giving credit where credit is due.
Now on to the possibility that Alex really believes the gift from God story. Could it be possible that after being absolutely focused on healing his wife during 12 years and studying many healing methodologies (Alex even tells about his wife having an impressive amount of books on healing and self help) all of this information somehow coalesced in Alex's subconscious into the form of The Healing Codes and was then interpreted as a downloaded gift from god. Lets not forget that Alex was ordained minister at a young age and was brought up in a strong Christian environment. What if he were brought up as a Buddhist instead, would he said Buddha delivered to him this healing gift?
Maybe you've read about some technological or scientific advancements arrived at at dreams, and I'm not implying anything magical or mystical this could be explained via the subconscious. Maybe you've read that the structure of benzene was arrived at through a reverie or day dream or the design of the sewing machine's needle in a similar way.
So I directly ask you Alex Loyd could you be wrong on the source of your healing codes? Could the subconscious coalescence of all the information you had produced the healing codes and not God?
I will try not to go much deeper into the book The Healing Codes having a lot of christian biases. If your interested in this read Hei Long's excellent two star review and the comments about this. He wrote very articulately his position and arguments to which, in my opinion, Alex really didn't respond. But yes, talking a lot about God and the bible is religious for me. And it made me uncomfortable. The main argument of Hei is that there was no indication on the cover or back of the book to warn the reader the book would delve into religion. I have the kindle edition and in all honesty I didn't expect the book to be religious at all myself from looking at the cover or Amazon's description. Many people say the book is not religious at all, and Alex himself says that his beliefs are in the book as an FYI because people like to know where an author is coming from. Well he should've stated that on the cover so we could know before buying the book. Hei also confronts Alex about hiding behind his academic credentials and not being upfront about being an ordained minister. Alex responds that he states his academic credentials because the subject at hand calls for them. But then again Alex states that ALL the healing codes do is heal SPIRITUAL issues, and then all the book is peppered with mentions of God and God being the true source of healing. He even encourages to visualize Jesus in one exercise so you can feel love or peace. I don't think that would be relaxing to a non christian. Doing a search on the kindle edition, the search engine yielded the word God 60 times, the word bible 16 and the word Jesus (as in the Christ) 12 times. So Alex, don't say that you put information on the book about your beliefs for "our information only". The search engine yields 0 results for Buddha or Allah or other sacred texts for that matter. What bothers me the most is when Alex says that he believes the bible is a non-negotiable truth. If the healing codes are not about beliefs and work regardless, why make such statements then? On the comments to Hei Long's review someone questions Alex about the contradictions in the bible and if he ignores parts of the Old Testament or what. That person is homosexual and talks about all the damaged he's received from his family through religion and the bible. And he asks because Alex says that he loves him and doesn't judge him for his sexuality and that he doesn't believe anyone will go to hell for their sins. To which the commenter is puzzled because some of Alex's statements seem counter to the bible. And Alex doesn't really answer if he cherry picks from the bible or how he manages to accommodate all the contradictions. And in spite of all this we get the bible is a non-negotiable truth in The Healing Codes book. Can there be more than one truth? If I believe in another sacred text which doesn't agree with the bible does that imply Alex believes I'm wrong? Alex has mentioned he had some issues growing up in a repressive interpretation of christianity. He says he doesn't call himself a christian (but how is people to call you when you believe in Jesus and the bible) that he is spiritual and not religious and that it took him a long time to get over all of this. I think he never got over it, just reinterpreted his dogma to feel psychological relief to his convenience like many of us do. He states that what is really important is to be loving at all times, and I'm all in for that, but I could never myself reconcile that with the bible and christianity without being to liberal about my interpretation of the text or ignoring some elements of it. Alex says he is no theologian so I wonder how he manages the contradictions in his personal beliefs and the non-negotiable truth which according to him the bible is. Through prayer, really? All of this ultimate truth postures only cause division. And it did bother me. I must admit, to be fair, that my experience of the bible and christianity (being born in a christian family) always meant zealotry, imposition, division, judgement and a dogma based on fear hence my personal take on the issue.. Alex also states that the bible is a love letter but that creates cognitive dissonance in me. For what I've read God punishes and kills time and time again when he is disobeyed, he hardens rulers hearts, floods the earth, asks for cruel displays of faith (sacrifice your son for me), etc. If you say that is not so then you haven't read the bible. And hey, every one has the right to believe in this or whatever they want, and to have their personal interpretation about it, but please don't tell me the bible is a love letter and a non-negotiable truth in a book I didn't buy for religious reasons. What is really important about this issue is that people may be put off and discard The Healing Codes book solely on religious grounds. And that's precisely the case as you can read from the 71 years old reviewer in the one star reviews. And as I said in a comment there, if the codes work that's a shame.
Now onto the healing code itself. I don't have any illnesses so I can not comment in there. I've used the codes for some days and do feel more relaxed. I think the book itself is good for self awareness and dealing with emotional or stressing issues that may be detrimental to your health. I really feel wee need a shift in our current medical paradigm and energy healing may be a step in the correct direction. For what I've seen the testimonials seem to be genuine and results are promising across different modalities of energy healing, but still more scientific validation is still to come and we may still be a long way from fully understanding the mechanisms behind healing.
All the criticism and points I make in this review are my honest opinion and are intended to be constructive, but for all I know I may be wrong. Still I don't think The Healing Codes were downloaded from god and that credit should be given where credit is due. I really feel all the god explanations and bible mentioning are totally unnecessary and detrimental, for readers may feel alienated by this as I do. For these two reasons, that I feel the author is not giving credit where he should, and the inclusion of religion in the book as was my perception I give the book three stars.
The Healing Codes may work, and thus encourage potential readers to investigate on their own, but in my opinion this is built upon other systems and not a revelation from god to Alex, and all the dogma behind it should be done with. I guess the christian flavored energy healing niche had to be filled up. If this Alex version of energy healing is giving results and helping many people and more so than other modalities as some say, then regardless where the author says he got the healing codes from, I must say to everyone that contributed to this directly or indirectly and to Alex himself, thank you!! Hopefully the so needed shift in our current healing paradigm in closer at hand, and the required science research to back it up too.

This book was recommended to me and my husband by a friend. We purchased it as a Kindle book. It is well designed, formatted and edited in that edition.

It has been known for many decades now in both mainstream and alternative medicine that stress is a major contributor--and sometimes a cause--of essentially every known disease. The stress response is also known as the fight-or-flight response, anxiety, adrenaline, or just plain, old fear.

In my experience using the healing code (HC), it works fantastically for shutting off a fight-or-flight switch that is stuck in the "on" position. In my own case, I had been experiencing intense situational stress and anxiety from almost two years of caretaking of my husband. He received a hip injury in a car accident over 11 years ago and has been in unremitting pain ever since that surgery, physical therapy, and countless other healing interventions have not helped. And his situation seriously worsened for no discernible reason two years ago, causing him great despondency since no health-care provider mainstream or alternative could help him.

Within the first 24 hours of my using the HC as taught in this book, my fight-or-flight stress switch was turned "off," and my mind was at peace. It was like a magic wand for me personally. As if I'd received a constant dose of some kind of natural tranquilizer that has zero side effects because my own body manufactures it.

Over the years I have done many things for stress, for example, meditation, yoga, deep breathing, soothing music, laughter therapy , aerobic exercise, excellent diet and nutraceuticals--you name it. Nothing, and I mean *nothing*, has ever worked as deeply and as quickly as the HC to remove deep-seated stress and anxiety. In addition to making me more mentally and emotionally flexible in daily life, using the HC has completely eliminated my occasional bouts of stress/anxiety-induced insomnia.

As for my husband, he also has experienced noticeable improvement in the stress and anxiety produced by his constant pain. Though he states that the pain itself has not yet decreased noticeably, it is a well known fact in the field of pain management (and in the field of natural childbirth) that one's attitude toward pain strongly affects one's ability to tolerate it. In addition, when anxiety levels rise, the stress chemicals themselves can physically increase pain by tightening muscles in every part of the body.

Sometimes it is hard to see everything a healing technique does for ourselves and it helps to have an outside observer. As for me, my husband says that the lessening of my anxiety is obvious, and it makes him feel less anxious. It also has made our relationship much more natural and relaxed and not constantly focused on almost nothing but his pain. My adult children have also commented on how much calmer I am now.

Here is what I have noticed viewing my husband on the outside: In spite of him saying his pain is still there, his whole demeanor has drastically changed. His expression is calm and peaceful. His posture, instead of being hunched over, is straight and firm. His general health is excellent, and even on nights when he doesn't sleep well because of the pain, he can still work out at the pool at our gym for an hour to an hour and a half. He cannot sit because of his hip injury and can only lie on his right side, which in itself causes pressure pain. To relieve the pressure pain during his waking hours, about 50% of the time he has to stand or walk around. That type of frequent motion requires excellent stamina, which has improved for him since using the HC. Best of all, he has regained hope rather than living in quiet despair--and hope is everything when one suffers from a chronic pain condition.

My husband wanted further coaching on the HC besides what is contained in this book, so he visited the author's website and located a trained HC coach. He paid $200 to receive four 30-minute sessions conducted by phone (it is possible to pay for more or less sessions than that). Doing this has not been necessary for me, because I continue to get terrific results faithfully practicing the HC from this book as prescribed, for six minutes three times per day. It is totally up to the individual discretion of each person using the HC if they want to do solely what is in this book or seek more training. So far my husband has had one session in which he received individually tailored, "advanced" HC geared to his own specific issues. He is using that version of the HC rather than the one in the book. He consistently does it as instructed on a daily basis. Both of us plan to keep doing HC indefinitely. It makes no sense to us to stop when the constant stress bombarding us in our personal lives as well as coming from the frantic world we all live in isn't going to go away in the foreseeable future.

Unpredictable results: negative in my case. And you can neither measure your progress nor know how long it will take

Sorry in advance for being too long in this review.

If this had been a paper and I had been a referee of it, I'd have sent it back with "major revisions". At the beginning, I was pretty disconcerted: the book seems to me full of contradictions, badly organized, similar to other books where the authors state their condition was very bad, then they applied the techniques they're going to explain and their life has suddenly become wonderful.
With the difference here it seems Jesus Christ himself is talking (it looks like he brings a divine message, he "heals" the possessed - please don't get offended by such metaphor - and he even talks about the risk the book could be harmful, in case it doesn't lead you to believe in a loving God). I was very perplexed indeed but what seems to me (I know Doctor Loyd doesn't agree) an underlying Christian vision: sex as a cause of problems, the risk being harmed by movies conveying negative emotions, the Support addressing you to Christian websites, all other options -apart prayers - to feel better discarded as just helping you coping with your problems (at least from AL: Dr. Johnson seems to me more positive under this respect) and not really solving them (but I admit almost everyone offering new solutions does it)... ok, I agree with some criticisms to other techniques, but I can't help feeling very perplex.

I have to say that, before reading the book, praying was one of the activities I disliked most (and also the one apparently more useless: I think supporters of prayers would tell me I do it in a wrong way), while after reading the book it seems to me I need to pray more, I prefer to go to Mass every Sunday and I've started to read the Bible.
I think the theoretical part repeats the same concept many times, so, even if I don't like the way it's written, I guess everyone understands the important concepts within.
I believe the analysis of problems is pretty good, but I find it confusing 12 kinds of problems very inter-related to each other are listed (such confusion is increased by the fact that, doing the test each 45 days, I always have some categories improving and some worsening): I think it would be better (for the sake of understanding) to have less categories, but well distinguished between each other.
Then, there are two crucial problems (for me): the first one is my body and mind have always needed stress, for me to avoid becoming depressed. So, I've found any technique meant to reduce/eradicate stress rather brutal and, at the end of the day, ineffective.
The second issue has to do with conscious beliefs/inner conflicts. I found it very convincing what he used to say about them. Unfortunately, I think this is the reason why other techniques failed with me, and probably why also my experience with the Code has been bad so far (after 6 months, I stopped doing it 3 times a day, also because even the test didn't see any improvement in the global score compared to the previous one: I do it just once; after reading the Manual, I'll try again). I don't know how to manage that problem.

It seems to me (I know the author disagrees on it again) a mixture of techniques I had already tried with no success indeed: prayer, meditation, reiki, bioenergy, kinesiology, EFT... Deep breathing was missing: I tried it basing on the "instant impact" technique suggested in the book, and I found it useless as well. For example, the way you try to heal a problem and your mind goes to a related one reminded me the "EFT marathons", and I find it equally frustrating (basically, a vicious circle).
I waited for a period I wasn't overwhelmed by work to start doing it. Unfortunately, the day after starting I fainted and broke my nose, and also had another amazing sport accident (I went to the first-aid for a finger bleeding after trying a save as a goal-keeper) after 4 months of doing the Code. I have no evidence there's a connection, but the 2 accidents were very curious.
I found it interesting what the book says about energy, and rather new to me (I don't know how much accurate) the theory about "cellar memories". Actually, I have a different vision on the "fight or flight" and on the idea one should always be in a normal "activation".

However, ok: I'd like to have more energy available. If what the book states is true, it's not only me having stress-related problems, but everyone, and the solution to any problem would be to eliminate it. And here seems to me there is another problem: you should keep relaxed while you do the Code. But actually being relaxed shouldn't be a means in my opinion, since it is a goal of the Code...
It also seems to me the Code itself requires some "faith": the author seems to think they don't need any randomized-control trial or statistical analysis, because there can't be side effects and it works for everyone. Also, you don't have a way to measure the progress you're making (apart from the Heart Rate Variability, according to the book, but I don't know what it is). The worst thing at all is that you don't have any clue about how long it should take to you to heal. Again, it seems to me there aren't week-end intensive Seminars/Courses, or therapists to whom to go to weekly (as with psychologists), but "coaches" and "packages". I didn't understand what buying the Codes meant, however I was given the Manual as a gift for a translation I made for their staff.

These are all things that made me feel uncomfortable with the Code, together with the fact the mentality of the Support seems to be: "just do the Code: it will work!" (I often didn't see their reply as connected to my questions), thus I haven't been able to make a sense of the results of the test on categories, and of what I thought were side effects of the Code itself (which they told me they weren't). The test itself is, in my opinion, prone to any sort of bias, since (apart from one question I can't understand) for all items you know which answer will give you good or bad results, and in some cases also in which categories.
As all people promoting techniques, it seems the message is: "if it doesn't work, it's because you're not doing it properly/long enough". It may well be my case, since I have many doubts about many issues (how to manage time, hand position, what to think while doing, what to choose to work on, the statement - and even the prayer a bit - to use). I find it especially complicated the alternation of negative/positive images/feelings.

I think that, instead of giving a few reasons why the method may not work AFTER you try it, they should have analyzed better how to place yourself in the position to do it effectively. And I'd have dedicated much more space to the "meat", the exercise itself, and much less to theory. As for experiences, instead of reporting every now and then how amazing results were for many people, I'd have told how some people did (what they focused on, etc...). Also, I'd have given much more information and caveats about side effects, how to minimize them and how to feel safe while doing the Code. Finally, I'd have also devoted some space about how to set goals for your own lives, because one needs to know where they want to go. This would also have made easier to choose positive images for the exercise.
As with EFT, you should give a vote to your feelings before and after. I didn't do it because, instead of getting frustrated in 6 months, I'd have become in 6 days in that way. I've also had the impression (looking online) people who practice this technique also do EFT but consider the Code more complicated to do (and I agree with this view).

To conclude: I've seen there are people talking on the web on how to do the Code (saying it's not well explained in the book). Maybe that's a good alternative to buy the book. You could also choose it's something not for you (I really have no idea, I don't have an idea even in my case if I'm doing good or bad to myself by practising it) or, on the contrary, that the simple Code wouldn't work for you, but either going directly to a Conference with Dr. Loyd (of course, if you can afford it and there's an event not too far in time and space) or buying one of the packages could do the job. In any case, I don't see buying the book at something necessary, unless you are among the people finding the theory behind rather new, and interesting in itself.

Edit: after breaking my nose the day after and having an emergency-room accident to a finger 4 months after, and seeing no positive effects after 6 months, this year I started to feel very tired and need to sleep 3-4 hours on Saturday afternoon. Then, after 2 years and 4 months, it turned out I had developed hypertension. It was clear I had to stop then, so I did. Writing with coaches (and reading them) didn't help me at all.

I listened to a webinar about the healing codes and didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars right off the bat so I googled and found the book instead. Then I read several of the Amazon reviews in order to see what I was in for. I got a tight knot in my stomach when several reviews mentioned that it was a Christian book. I grew up Christian and recovered so I didn’t want to go backwards.
The book arrived and I decided to give it a chance. I finished it in two evenings. It was compelling and the information was very well organized. Some of it was energy information I have read about before but it was much more clear to me. The healing codes set-up does remind me of EFT and Roger Callahan’s tapping system, which makes me wonder if the author didn’t know about those modalities before he had his “revelation.” He quotes Callahan profusely in his book. But I told myself so what? Doesn’t matter where the revelation came from, as long as it works.
The Christian part was pretty laid back. But I couldn’t disagree more with the author, who said that he was raised to believe God was mean, vindictive and selfish but now knows that the God of the Bible is love. Hmmm. I suppose it depends on which parts of the Bible you focus on? I have read the Bible twice and memorized hundreds of verses. For me, in the Old Testament, the main character is totally mean and vindictive so much so that he destroys the whole world with a flood because only one family was “righteous.” There are numerous other stories like that but the worst is when the Israelites return from Bondage in Egypt and find lots of people living in their “promised” land. God tells Moses to raise an army and go kill all of them. Yes, the babies, elderly people, all of them…Sound familiar? I believe that’s the definition of Genocide.
Finally the main character does something nice and because he loves the world, he gives his only son so we can be saved but that love is completely conditional. You can only be saved by accepting Jesus. (No man cometh to the father, but by me.) So even if you are Gandhi, who was offered the gift of eternal life through Jesus but refused, you go to hell. I read that in a book about Gandhi by the way. He didn’t accept Jesus and chose to stay Hindu. That is called free will but it doesn’t seem that way to me. If I put a gun to your head and say, “I am giving you free will, give me your money and live or don’t give it to me and I blow your brains out.” Is that really free will? Heaven or Hell? Free will? Who would choose eternal suffering in hell if it was really a matter of free will?
Uh-oh, back to critiquing this book rather than the Bible. In spite of the mild Christian pushes here and there in the book, I loved it. Seriously. This coming from an Agnostic. I do believe there are borrowed elements from EFT and the Callahan method of tapping but, again, so what? I have been doing lots of energy work for ten years and this system feels like the icing on the cake. I have only worked with it a week so I will give an update after more time has passed but so far, when I do the healing codes, I really feel the energy MOVING in my body. The front of my forehead gets really warm and tingling too. I have felt that with EFT and other modalities but it is much more powerful with this system. I have experienced healing by using other systems and have seen a few miracles in Christian churches and also in other religions. The healing force, the life energy of the world is bigger than a name, a god, a book or a religion so don’t let the Christian part scare you away from the healing code. Open you mind and give it a try. You can change the prayer set up to work for you. I will let everyone know what happens in the next few months.
FYI…You don’t need to buy more than the book in my opinion. It has everything you need for healing. You can buy hundreds of dollars more of materials from the author’s website but I think it is a gimmick. Plus the author tells you in the book that all you need is the basic Healing Code. I must say I am grateful to him for being the kind of Christian, who wanted this to be available to all people even non-Christians! Happy Healing to all of you, however you get it to happen.

Brief history: My parents both had traumatic childhoods - my mother more so. She got pregnant young, they got married and went on to have 3 more unplanned kids. My memories of her growing up are mostly of her being overwhelmed, depressed and cold. (There were good times too). My father started sexually abusing my sister and I when I was 8 and this went on until I was 16 - unfortunately he was the parent who showed us love and attention so this was very confusing obviously. My sister developed an eating disorder, ending up in a psychiatric hospital for 4 months when she was in her early 20s and I had panic attacks throughout my childhood and was extremely shy. I coped by what I now realize is "self-protection" which means I have shut people out of my life other than life partners. I was also a heavy drinker since childhood. I have many aquaintances/work friends but no real close friends. 30 years ago I moved away from the country I grew up in and have made my life in the US. Although I love where I live, I have always felt a sense of guilt and homesickness - now more so as my father is elderly and it has fallen to my sister to watch out for him. I can't really change the decisions I made 30 years ago but I would love to be more at peace with them.

Things started changing for me when my mother died 6 years ago. I realized I needed some help and started seeing a therapist which seemed to help somewhat. I started feeling happier, started working out and then last summer just as I was feeling the best I've ever felt I was diagnosed with breast cancer. When I told my sister her first words were "It's stress" and I've instinctively known this to be true. Why else would a very healthy person who eats well and looks after herself and who has no known genetic factors develop breast cancer at 52? Luckily it was caught very early but it was invasive and estrogen + so I had a lumpectomy, a course of chemo and then radiation which all finished in January. I'm now supposed to be taking Tamoxifen for 5 years. This is where the Healing Codes comes in.

This book came to me in a rather serendipitous chain of events. I originally decided to read "The Secret: The Power" after poo-pooing the idea but my sister is really in to it so I felt that as she is normally a pretty sceptical person there must be something to it and I was pleasantly surprised at it's message. Around the same time I received an email from an oncology newsletter telling me about the "1 Minute Cure" which claims to cure cancer and most other diseases by oxygenating your cells. I found this very intriguing so bought the book and found it really interesting and decided to give it a try. However, it did mention at the end that if your cells are closed due to past traumatic memories then this therapy would not work. The book then went on to recommend another book - "The Greatest Manifestation Principle in the World" which I duly bought and was just as impressed with it. It basically fills in the gaps of "The Secret". While I was checking this book out on Amazon I came across "The Healing Codes" bought it and am now in the process of trying whilst simultaneously fighting my chronic tendency to procrastinate.

My dilemma is that I am supposed to be taking Tamoxifen and have put it off partly due to my intense fear of unwanted sideeffects which I feel will set me back in the gains I have made over the last 6 years and my gut-feeling is that this is not a good drug to take. I am also seeing a naturopath who has me on natural estrogen-lowering supplements and I have changed my diet. My acupuncturist got me through chemo and radiation with practically no side-effects. The other reason I am putting it off is that I feel it will interfere with the healing codes healing process. I have to admit that I am having quite the internal battle over my gut-feeling and hopes for "the healing codes" and my head which is telling me to do what the oncologist says and not question it (I'm not very good at that....)

I feel that I had started making strides in self-healing already but the cancer has thrown all of that up in the air even though I have been strangely peaceful and happy throughout the cancer experience. I just need to make sure it doesn't come back and thoroughly clean house. I will update in several months.

ps. sorry to blab on for so long!

This works. It will change your life

I bought the healing codes book about a year and a half ago, and later bought the healing codes manual. I do the codes every day. I would never want to live without them--not that it is addictive or some kind of cult thing. It works simply by helping you to love yourself, to love life, to love others, and when you feel love in your heart, your life will change immensely. It is an energy healing process through a short meditation. The manual is expensive, but WORTH the price. The universal code in this book is a great code and works wonderfully. If you are wondering what a "code" is as I did when I was looking into this, it is simply a set of instructions for performing the energy healing. There is a certain order that you place your hands around your head depending on what issue you are dealing with. I know it all sounds strange when it is new, but once you try it very soon it will make sense.

The book explains how and why it works very well. I started doing the universal code right away, and read through the book later. You don't need to understand the why and how for it to work, but it certainly does give you an explanation.

I urge everyone to try it. It is so amazing. It is not only for people who have problems, it is for everyone. Initially I bought it for my daughter who was suffering from depression, but understanding how it works, I used it for myself, and it changed my life in ways I never even expected. In a nutshell, the idea is that when we experience perceived threats, our body goes into a stress response to deal with it (fight or flight response which is created through a release of hormones in the body). Most of the time in our lives, we don't really need to utilize these effects these hormones offer. Rarely do we really need to fight or quickly run away. Instead we get nervous or anxious and these hormones then just add stress to our bodies, which causes cellular damage. Not only this, our cells remember what triggered this stress, and any time that our bodies believe we are experiencing the same situation, it prepares us by causing the stress hormones to be released. Much of these cellular memories are created from infancy through early childhood, when the child doesn't really understand what is happening, but gets scared even when there is not a genuine threat. One example is a child sitting in the child seat of a shopping cart... the mother walks away for a minute to pick something up, keeping an eye on the child. The child is distracted and doesn't see the mother walk away, and suddenly sees that it is all alone. Then the child panics believing it has been abandoned. The mother reappears after 1 minute, but the damage has been done. This is a true story of what happened to a woman once. She had problems in her adult life stemming from this event from which she had not even remembered. Also, because this is stored on a cellular level, we actually inherit the stress from our ancestors!!! (this is how and why instinct works in animals)

OK. that was my attempt to explain it quickly. I am telling you this is the most amazing thing. You just need an open mind. In the healing code manual on the healing code website, you will get a list of "truth focus statements" don't be put off by the religious nature of some of these. You do not need to have any religious convictions for this to work. When I started it, I simply ignored those statements and chose statements that were in line with my beliefs. This works for everyone. I do the codes for my whole family, believers non-believers and it works simply like a miracle. It works. Please try it. You will improve how you feel about life (even if you think you are just fine--as I did--you can't even imagine how much you can change for the better) and when you are a healthy, vibrant person who is full of love in their heart, you make the whole world a better place. Do it for yourself, do it for your family, do it for the world.

I have been involved in many healing things over the years and if they sound interesting or people are getting results - I try them. I have had great movement with NLP, Debbie Fords Dark Side of the Light Chasers, Emotional medicine, Natural Medicine, HeartMath work etc. So, this sounded interesting.

Well... other than feeling a bit silly doing the movements for the healing codes - I have to say the results so far are astonishing! I have had a bad thyroid condition for most of my life. And as my stress goes higher, the worse it gets. I have been up and down on my thyroid extract medication but it's been a very very slow increase or decrease in the amount I take. I.e. I might drop it 15mg and I'll be on the new amount for say a few weeks - finally dropping another 15mg or damn - going up again. My highest I have been on was 420 when I lived in FL - then I came to HI and got it down to 75mgs over a year.

2 and 1/2 weeks ago - I was on 390mgs. Now, I am on 135mgs and going down constantly.

With thyroid - if you are taking too much, you will feel it quite quickly - usually you feel antsy, your throat feels 'palpy/fluttery/tight,' you feel overly hungry and your sleep is affected. You pick it up in the same day you take your medication. It's quite obvious. Since doing the codes, I have dropped my meds by 15mgs to 30mgs a day - depending on what I have been feeling. It's pretty WOW. And very interesting. Also, it's very nice to have a clear marker for what is going on. Other than than feeling a bit funky because now my meds are TOO high most days - getting them down... I really do feel okay. Normally even a small drop of 15 or 30mgs would make me feel pretty unwell.

I have also done EFT and it's not even really like EFT. I didn't have much joy with EFT but I know it works well for some people. I also have done a lot of NLP, which is great but this is faster. Much faster. It's easy to do, it's clear. I do it twice a day. Reading the codes through twice for each healing point and run that circuit 3 times - that gives you about 6 to 7 mins. I have 3 different things I'm working on with it. I do these in one batch. I then do one other batch at night but I do them in 3 separate lots because I am tired and it seems to be working the same.

Also, I am not a religous person but am spiritual. Initially I tried inserting the Univese for God... but it was a bit bulky - so stopped worrying about semantics for the same energy and just inserted God - even though I don't carry that belief system. It still works just as well. I also say pray, because you are still really just asking for something - so again I decided it was semantics and it flows better as it's written.

In terms of HeartMath work, NLP and any of the emotional medicine fields - it makes perfect sense. You are basically resetting old programs in the body. Just much much faster than other work I've done. Also, like other people, there have been things I haven't been able to shift over the years and now... voila - results. I run the thyroid one all the time at the moment until I'm off medication and stable with it. I also run for Adrenals as they go hand in hand. And I am running a money one too. I have also run Depression and um... other things - again, because it's changed, I can't remember what they were.

I would HIGHLY recommend this book. Whether you read the back up data for it or just skip ahead and do the codes - it's getting some amazing results for me. I am quite blown away by this. Fantastic work! Thanks guys. :-)

Like so many reviewers here I am familiar with Reiki, Acupuncture, and of course EFT. I have also checked out the Emotion Code as well as some "Quantum Code", sorry I can't remember the correct title.

My first step was to take a look at the reviews. I took a look at the overall numbers. Many reviews means there is less chance that just friends and family posted. I never trust a rating of only positive, glowing statements. No service or product can make 100% of its buyers happy 100% of the time. So, to see a small percentage of very low ratings is actually a good thing in my book. It tells me, that I am most likely dealing with authentic reviews for the most part. I don't spend much time reviewing them. For a more expensive purchase I would also rely on other sources like the BBB.

Some things I didn't understand when reading the book, but found the answers here. Perhaps somebody could compile the most frequently asked questions and add them to the book and/or website. Although it seems to make more sense to clarify in future editions of the book. If a lot of people have the same questions - chances are it is not the readers' "fault". I did send an email to ask specifically about animals and got a very fast reply - that appeared to be a preformatted reply to a question concerning humans. A tad frustrating, but not a big deal. I was impressed with the speed of the response.

I have only been working with the code for a few weeks and found the biggest challenge to leave 10 years of EFT behind. But things are coming along as I get more and more comfortable with this approach to energy healing.

I had no trouble registering my book to receive the advertised bonuses. I am not a computer wiz, I am a button pusher, it certainly does not take any technical skill. I tried to listen to the Thursday call (today) over the computer but found the reception poor. Like a cell phone conversation when one participant is in a bad spot. Logging into the call was easy however. I eventually gave up. I plan to use the archive feature later. By the way, I do find that option very helpful. I usually don't have time to listen early in the afternoon.

What I do find bothersome are the numerous references to the Bible, and to God. Reading Dr. Loyd's description about his religious background I wasn't really prepared for that. I am decidedly spiritual - with a strong aversion to organized religion. So, this takes some getting used to and needs a constant reminder to myself to not get hung up on labels. But still - to me it is a hair in the soup. Probably because I feel there is a disconnect between the claim it is not a religious book and what I perceive as a very strong religious undertone. A struggle not to throw out the baby with the bathwater. For comparison: EFT and its presentation in all its forms is truly spiritual and not religious in my view. I never had these personal struggles with EFT. I can see how this one aspect of the Healing Code can be a deal breaker for many.

For a book that makes so many references to scientific studies I find it very disappointing that it does not include a reference section. It makes me wonder why you would place such emphasis on science yet provide no references. I just finished a 179 page book on Oxytocin which did include 16 pages of references. I find it disappointing that references are being made to newspaper articles or TV Shows instead. That omission bugs me a lot more than what I see as religious undertones. Even as a layperson, I'd like to read at least some of these studies for myself. At least, please post them on your website.

Works for SOME issues

On November 18th I received an email from Alex Loyd, asking me to write an honest review of his book. Seems like a reasonable request to me, so here I go.

I bought this book back in September. Over the next few weeks I read a few pages a day, but never attempted to actually DO the Universal Healing Code given in the book. Then one Sunady morning my back was so sore and stiff I could barely walk, so I took the time to actually DO the code. Much to my surprise, after just 10 minutes or less, I got off the chair with no pain and no stiffness. I wear a pedometer to monitor my daily step count and by the end of that day I had accumulated almost 30,000 steps. From barely able to walk to walking 30,000 steps convinced me that the healing code really works, at least in that situation. I was pretty excited about the possibilities at this point.

The next day I googled The Healing Codes to find a link to the website and discovered on the website that I could hire a coach and receive my own custom codes. So I made an appointment with a practitioner. Although I tremendously enjoyed working with the practitioner-coach I choose, I've not yet experienced the healing I was seeking after a month of using the custom codes at least 3 times every day. In the book, it does say that some issues may take a much longer time. Now even though I've not experienced the healing I'd like ( vision problems ), I have noticed some subtle inner changes. Since doing the codes for me is a pleasant experience I intend to continue my daily practice. Perhaps the results I am seeking will unfold in the future. I am well aware that Rome was not built in a day.

Coming back to the book itself...I'm one of those people who like the nitty-gritty details of what makes things work, so I was disappointed in the lack of detail concerning exactly HOW the energy coming out of my hands corrects and heals the faulty energy patterns at the root of the problem I am addressing? HOW was the sequence of positions in the Universal Code determined? IMO, the quantuum physics component of the process was not given due justice in the book. I would like to have a 'look under the hood' so to speak. Because of this I chose to give it a 4 star rating instead of a 5 star rating, but this is the ONLY reason for my 4 star rating. Overall, the book was worth the money and worth the time to read it and learn how to do the healing code. I have just completed my 2nd reading of the book, this time underlining as I go, so now my book is half yellow. I highly recommend this book, and plan to give copies as gifts during the holiday season.

As an energy therapy practitioner for more than 20 years, I am sufficiently impressed with the efficacy of The Healing Codes that I am considering the possibility of submitting an application to become a healing codes practitioner.

*************below this line added on Feb 17, 2011**************

I've been applying the Healing Codes on a daily basis for about 4 months, and I can say that for me at least, the process definitely does NOT heal physical issues ( catarracts ). Even though the author points out in the book that the process does not address physical issues, there are so many glowing 5 star testimonials describing physical healings that I got the impression that he was sying that only as a required disclaimer to keep the FDA, AMA, etc off his back. Now, wether or not that is/was his strategy, that is the IMPRESSION I got from reading the book. My bad!

I've had this book since July and held off reviewing until I had thoroughly put it to the test. I highly recommend getting this book if one truly, really wants to gain peace from their issues and move forward in a positive way. If staying enmeshed is what someone wants, then don't get it. It will require you dig deep to find the source issues to heal and some people just may not be ready for that.

I used EFT a great deal and have found it to be very good, especially in the moment as an emotional triage, but to really negate an issue at it's source, I've found nothing to compare with the Healing Code research and modality. Also, I've never had any problems that their customer service wasn't very, very helpful to remedy or answer and the book bonuses, especially the seven-secrets video, are really good.

That said, I think investing in the Healing Codes to be worthwhile and while $197.00 is a lot of money, it's nothing compared to prolonged therapy where a person is re-traumatized over and over again 'talking it out' and getting nowhere, even if things like EMDR are employed.

My problem (and many others who have used this protocol have the same issues, as we have an online forum and off-list emails where we support one another) is this: The Q codes ought to have been a part of the Healing Codes package. And the cross-promotional emails one receives where Dr. Loyd says "Check this out!!" and it's a webinar for another energy practitioner who promotes things that both Dr. Loyd and Dr. Johnson have plainly said they will not go spiritually, then it smacks of hypocrisy. I know these are cross-promotional agreements and am not a rube when it comes to business, but it is annoying and seemingly endless at times.

In my honest opinion, all these minor irritations are just that; minor. Especially when it comes to the healing I've experienced. I've had literal monsters in my life from birth onward and many deep scars that I feel for the first time are actually healed. I see things for what they are without it impacting who I am emotionally and that is truly priceless.

What I do not like is when some of the people Dr. Loyd employs use their version of Christianity to support the source of the Healing Codes. What I know is this: In a fear inspiring way we are wonderfully made and are designed to heal and this works. I don't want to hear pulpit style things to support why they are doing what they do. I know they are well-intentioned and that it works and that is enough for me.

As someone who is a scholar of the Bible, I know that much of what passes for Christianity is not at all what was practiced when the Christian congregation was first formed and that many cherished dogma was adopted from surrounding pagan nations, so I think it best for them to leave this stuff OUT; it diminishes the healing protocol in my opinion and opens them up for some of the baseless attacks seen with some of these reviews, as THE PROTOCOL WORKS REGARDLESS OF YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM.

I've read some of the negative reviews and honestly, I think that those reviews are hurtful and diseased. Some are using it as a platform to promote their leap of faith, scorning of intelligent reason and rationality to promote the fundamental and militant religion of Atheism and shame on them for doing so; but that is their burden and if they want to spurn something that works, that's their choice. I just hope those ready to really heal and move forward do not allow it to stop them from exploring the Healing Code(s).
