Snakes
& other Reptiles
Dear
Laurie,
Just
wanted to give you an update on my ALMOST lizard-less cruise…
I
made it through every port without a sighting, until the
last day. My husband and I were taking a private tour and
we turned down a residential street where they were trimming
a tree, and we had to stop. Well, when the big branch fell
on the street about a DOZEN iguanas came out of the brush,
scattering in all directions.
Maybe
it was a premonition on your part – talking about
the brother & sister lizards, but there was an entire
generation hiding up in that tree! One of them had a head
the size of a melon – gray& ugly, running right
towards our car. My husband was screaming, “Don’t
look! Don’t look!”
But
it was too late – I saw all of them…big ones,
little ones, green, gray, white, young & old….and
I was fine. I didn’t freak-out a bit. (I did have
slight bruising on my thumb from pressing it so hard, but
it isn’t permanently disfigured J) We continued the
tour, and I didn’t even think about afterwards. That’s
monumental. (My husband couldn’t believe that I didn’t
have to be hospitalized.)
I
had a few bad dreams when I got home, but other than that,
I’ve had no residual effects. So, I’d like to
thank you for giving me “added peace” in my
life. I’m glad I had the experience, and was able
to test my new lizard-fear-free self! Who would have thought
it would only take 4 sessions to get over a life-long phobia?
Now
I’ve moved on to the weight-loss CD, and I’m
listening to it religiously – after all that cruise
food, I’m just waiting for it to actually take effect!
Laurie, I really want you to know how grateful I am to you
for helping me overcome my fear. I wish you all the best
and please know that you have facilitated SUCCESS! -- Lenore
V.
