What people are saying about working with Eilat

I'm the happiest I've ever been!

karen m - psychologist

I’m transitioning to the best phase of my life. Everything is falling into place and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been. You have no idea how much your course has empowered me and changed my life for the better 🤗❤️

It is life-changing...

Thank you dearest Eilat – it is life-changing to be part of your community!

I have no idea how to explain the freedom you have given me.
Go figure, I was my own gravedigger.
You helped me free myself from a heavy and dark shadow over my life. You made me realise that I am worth something and I deserve love, especially from my own worst critic (myself). I feel completely disconnected from the person who did the questionnaire at the start of our course. I have been liberated.
I can feel myself much more relaxed and I am starting to see the change in my kids and my household.
I know this is going to be a journey, but it is one I want to keep doing. Every day I have a light bulb moment and make small adjustments - and this is all thank you to the program we did.

It feels like I was freed and removed from the person I was, and my eyes are finally open.

Thank you for saving me from myself.
Love, Elmarie

I am more satisfied with my personal life and  I have a better connection with my inner guidance.

Also, I can make good decisions for myself. As well as good choices that I have made in the last few months. I have a connection between my self-love and my health despite the difficulties I have faced.

My life satisfaction at this time has improved and my hope for the future.

When I started this course I was very negative, and complained a bit about life situations. Now I view problems differently and I try to do what is best for me.

The ALLOW YOU has shown me that I can make decisions for myself and my future.

Thank you.  Zelda

I felt stuck when I joined this group.
I had no success feeling better after doing any of the other ‘self-loving’ things (affirmations, journaling, massages, pampering, etc.) it was all short term and not sustainable. I was also so unsure of myself. It was exhausting and I wanted to be un-stuck.

I am BEYOND pleased I joined. I now know how to listen to myself and not silence my needs. I’m also gentler and kinder to myself. Making self-loving decisions is now the most important aspect of everything that I do. The context is irrelevant, the process is important - and so am I.

What The Portal of Permission means to me.
I feel that it helps me to feel 'legitimate', that it is ok to be as I am, that there is nothing wrong with me. That is the biggest thing I take from The Portal. It has helped and still helps me to think and feel differently about myself. It has opened me up to self-acceptance, -kindness and -love. And that in turn has led to more acceptance, kindness and love of and to and for others. It is quite wondrous and wonderful! 

The videos explaining how things work, the meditations and the daily love notes are all so helpful to constantly remind me of this new way of being.

I totally believe in learning by immersion, and the portal facilitates that process. I am so very thankful for you and the love you put out into the world, Eilat, and I am full of gratitude that you have created The Portal of Permission. Together with you and The Portal I am changing my life! 🪄🌈🧡😃

Claudia Classen // Interior Designer

 I can't even express how valuable this course was. I have since reflected on its completion, and I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support and guidance throughout this incredible journey. Your dedication and commitment to our growth and learning made this experience unforgettable.

From the moment we began this course, you created an environment that encouraged us to push our boundaries, take risks, and strive to love ourselves. I must say I have struggled with the love question and giving myself permission to exist in these past couple of weeks but I am working on it and learning to ground myself in this new adjustment I am facing; just have to take some practice and a whole lot of loving myself which I know I can do and giving grace to myself.

Oh Eilat! I needed exactly those words today.
Thank you. I have been following you for many months (years)? And I own and have read your books, and the beautiful Joy exercises/affirmations/meditation.

And today, this story, this exact words, this exact situation, resonate so strongly... So please receive my gratitude (and gratitude is such a pleasant feeling to share 😜). Thank you: for your words and your guidance, and for holding our hands as we learn and practice loving ourselves, and others and the world better too as a result.

Blessings

Karen // Therapist 

I'm calmer, more focused,
more boundaried
with my time and energy. I met amazing people. Lots of self reflection and self love growth, and less guilt re making decisions that are in alignment with “if I loved myself” -giving myself space to consider and listen to my body. Life is easier and lighter.

I’ve gotten in touch with what I really would love to do (for myself) and in decision making and listening to my inner voice. Also been kinder and gentler to myself in all aspects. This translates to being happier. Self talk is MUCH better. I just feel freer and a better version of myself. Less angsting over things or ruminating about things I can’t change – surer of my decisions. Also properly taking time off to attend to pressing needs, rest, catch up when tired. 

Dr R M// Medical Doctor

I was hoping that the course would change my ways of doing and being and it has surpassed my wildest expectations.

It brought freedom of being myself to my daily living and interactions with others.

It was so easy and reassuring to be my brutal self in the group since I felt 'held' and safe within the confines of group. I felt it best to bare all in order to progress to my need to forgiveness towards myself and the healing process that went with it. 

I wouldn’t be in this beautiful and fuzzy space within myself and the world around me had I not come with the aim to reach my final goal in setting myself free from a prison created by myself in my own head.. No amount of money or riches could ever amount to how great and liberated I feel after this journey which to me is never-ending since I'm continuously evolving and I know there's so much more out there for me to conquer and celebrate. 

Sharrone  // Counsellor 

This course has helped me blossom
into showing more unique and self-loving ways compared to the generic psychotherapies we have been taught. 

I almost feel lighter and more energetic to tackle things I would usually hide away from or give in. I feel like I have a self-loving armor on now, and remembering that I can feel without thinking its too much, that I give myself more love than ever before and that I can tackle the things that are hard with love instead of self-criticalness.

Sharleen// Psychologist

Good morning I just wanted to tell you how awesome you are. Such an inspiration to many ❤️ Debbie

Debbie Craig// Global Catalyst

Your course has inspired me in ways I could never explain ...  
Your impact is felt everyday ❤️

Heena // Psychologist

Eilat thank you so much. You have blessed me so much these last months.

Maria // Teacher

This book was one of the very few I could connect to. To love myself has not come easy since one is very determined to constanty change oneself in order to function. Your book help me with the acceptance part a great deal. Just wanted to say that, finally life became a bit easier for me.

Caroline// Manager

Thank you for this bootcamp Eilat, but more so, thank you for the light you shine to people you don't even know and who maybe - like me - never let you know that your words are being read, and heard, and that they provide guidance, comfort and hope.

May your December be filled with light and blessings, big and small, and love.

Warm regards, Caroline

Hi Eilat. I just want to let you know your Wednesday letter has been my go to. I look forward to every letter of guidance every week. Since the book launch , I have made so many big moves emotionally  - it is unbelievable.
It's been hard but with very worthwhile outcomes. I am now at a position where I am going for an interview for my dream job, but every morning I tell myself I've answered my truth question.
Your tools, that you easily share have changed my life and the lives around me.

Thank you, Rezina

Thank you, Eilat, for the constant and consistent blessing you are in the lives of so many. May your work and ministry be blessed in abundance, and may you, too, know how truly amazing you are✨

Warm blessings to you and your family as you embrace this new year, with all that it may contain 😇

Fondest love, Diana

Eilat, as I reflect on the past seven months, I am filled with immense gratitude for the guidance, wisdom and support you have so generously shared. You have been pivotal in my journey of personal growth. The ALLOW YOU process and framework, the 7-month course, both of your books and the wonderful love tribe you have created, has been a constant source of inspiration and empowerment for me.

You embody the principles that you teach, with so such wisdom, authenticity and compassion. There are not enough words to thank you for being such an incredible mentor and guide on this amazing journey.

With heartfelt appreciation, Mel

You have been a pivotal part of my growth and journey. Your work has been life changing and so supportive to this time when I most needed it. It really did give me permission to be me, in the MOST trying of circumstances. I know it has prepared me for what is to come.
Thank you for all your time and encouragement, your gentleness and kindness, your listening ear, and for creating a space of safety where I could be vulnerable and so learn the deepest truths of me and allow them to rise up to where they belong.
May you, and your family, be richly blessed, and thankfully this is not a goodbye cos as you say, we are still here!

Much love, Sarah

Dear Eilat.
There are not really words to do justice to express my gratitude towards you.  You walk your talk!  Thank you for being such a loving kind person.  Thank you for your brilliant course, the Laser process and how you were always there to cheer all of us on.  I truly appreciate and value the intelligence, creativity, time and effort you have put into designing and presenting  the course as well as giving individual feedback to everyone re the end of journey questionnaire.  It is rare!  Thank you!

Much love, Ansie

Thank you dear Eilat

I so appreciate your wisdom and kindness. This process really works magic. 🙏🏼🥰

A friend introduced me to your newsletter, and I've not looked back since... Your newsletters are inspiring and they do help sooo much. Thank you...

I had bookclub on Thursday and one of the girls hadn’t known about you before, but came to your launch of You Have Permission to Exist with me and bought your book. She’d just finished it and RAVED about it - said it was a level above Brene Brown. Then Dr Di Lavies said she’d got so much from the course she did with you - so there was an Eilat love fest going on!!

Thank you SO a much for all the wonderful teachings in all your workshops - for many people this year! So glad I came across this all!

How amazing all your hard work has been - I applaude you Eilat!🙌🏻

It has been life altering.

The content is FANTASTIC and should be mandatory in all school and university curricula. Thank you for being such a wonderful support and champion of tuning into our needs. This is game changing stuff!

So appreciative of this course, the knowledge and being able to 'live' (read apply) this work in my daily life. Working with you has been a life changing experience.

Thank you for all you do.

Best wishes,

Janine

I would not have made the call to step towards myself, to make a self-loving/respecting decision to invest money/make such a commitment to my work if I hadn’t done your course.

It really helped me to do a complete 180; after your training I woke to and aligned with what my soul’s deepest longings are, which is to offer my ‘sacred bundle’ with a generous heart, to be present and available for our world’s growing curiosity about hand reading. In other words, to put myself and the info out there. You really helped me to make the decision!

With love and gratitude

I am LOVING this course, I can't thank you enough Eilat. Having struggled with self worth and body image for years, I have overcome much of it but your workshops have given me such vast insight and wonderful exercises to do to unravel some areas that I still struggled with but didn't know how to change. I had a quick read through my notes from day 1 - we have done a lot but it's gone so fast! Session 1 had many new revelations for me - I did NOT know that feelings of discomfort in me meant help and listen, and the ALLOW is such a beautiful practical exercise for this. Session 2 really highlighted my thoughts which I didn't realise were so critical and often about 'Am I going to be OK'. The grass field analogy was so helpful - I have used it a few times with patients! Session 3 was a banger..yikes. The areas where I have pain spoke such deep truths of held emotions. I realised I saw pain as irritating and a sign of weakness rather than a message for help and love. It's a whole new friendship between myself and my body, still a bit awkward but we will get there! The idioms and body mapping I love and have also used them with patients, which has filled my heart to overflowing when I see them hearing their body speak for the first time. Our workshop on relationships this weekend has so helped me understand why and how to be more consistently me, and not dependent on whom I am with. The tennis court scenario is such a brilliant visual to explain relationships. I have a giggle every now and again when I realise the ball is on my side of the court and I'm waiting for the other person to come round and do what they want with it 😉 I had a sneak preview the other week at your Money chapter, I was struggling with putting a value to my physio practice (I am selling it, wow a big decision but so much of a yes feeling!) I felt so vulnerable in this process. Your chapter helped me so much. Thank you again Eilat. May you too be blessed by all that you do XX Sarah

I LOVE both your books. They were written for me!  Doing the course at the end of last year, and the December boot camp and receiving the weekly emails have all challenged and changed the way I think and, more importantly, feel about myself. I notice myself now. I speak to myself kindly. I notice my feelings much more and let them flow through me more often now rather than resisting them and pushing them away. I notice more when I am zoning out. It has been a quite amazing journey so far! This morning I heard this song on the radio: I Am The One And Only. Well, that song is so exactly right, isn't it?! 

I am grateful beyond words for this incredible journey with you this year, Eilat. What a JOY it has been completing the questionnaire and realising how different I am now and how life-changing the course has been. 

Thank you for the impact you have had on my life. 

Sending you a big hug of gratitude. 

“

I have managed to be kinder to me, more loving towards my family, friends and clients.

How do you feel you have changed through this process?

I am more open to possibilities of making decisions which will be more nurturing

towards myself without feeling guilty and taking on rescuing roles which I have

been aware that I have done so often on the past

“

Hi Eilat 

Congratulations!!!!! you have chosen such fitting titles for your books. When I first came across a post from you i found it difficult to comprehend. I signed up for your emails and bootcamp and volunteered to be part of your new book. I'm actually experiencing everything you talk about in your books. The past few days I found myself in a bind simply because I haven't given myself permission to exist!!! 

Thank you for opening my eyes to living a better life. Yours sincerely

Farah

You helped me soooo much – and continue to do so. I thought I would just remind you that the work you do is profound.  I really do have a  sense of peace, being ok with myself and a new found sense of humour that I’m enjoying. It’s helping me with  some difficult stuff and the best is when a client doesn’t accept my proposal or  my sense of fun falls flat, I just say I have my own back.

 

Carry on getting the word out there anyway you can.

With much love

Tracy 

Dear Eilat, I am so excited to hear about your new book. Reading your first book and attending a course with you, has been life changing for me. When things get rough, I always go back to the love question and to identifying and meeting my needs. It really works. With love Tracy (three years after doing one six week course)

Thank you! For your books and this Boot Camp. I heard you on LeAnn Austin's podcast shortly after learning from an energy coach that I do not love myself enough, which came as a complete surprise. I have always taken care of myself, eating right, getting enough sleep and exercising to prevent feeling blue, but I was nearly 59 years old, how could have lived so much of my life without learning what sounds like one of the basics? 


I didn't berate myself though, but instead worked to learn what loving myself means and how it differs from taking care of yourself, which I learned from your book - begins with listening to myself. It has been a wonderful journey so far and I turned 60 in November happier than I have ever been in my life. One of my goals is to help others learning to love themselves. As a teacher, that comes naturally.


Thank you for the Boot Camp. It helped me finish the year strong! It kept me grounded in loving myself throughout the craziness of the holidays and end of the year.


Peace, love and joy,

Liz

I would like to thank you...

I would like to deeply thank you for the very profound work you do helping heal this planet by teaching people to love themselves, and consequently spread love everywhere.


Nour

I have to say how much I am loving your newsletter AND how often I am using the love question / ALLOW with clients. I even added small pieces, such as speaking in the 3rd person with a random name for ‘laying it out’ when emotions are high and gremlins are loud. THANK YOU :0)

Gillian Waters 

Your loving, unjudging and kind support has given me the courage to lean into more of me.


I am so grateful for that. My life is lighter, better. I am more able to live more authentically, safely, in love.


Thank you.

Thank you Eilat, you really have changed my life, I can honestly say this is the most at peace I have ever been. I am dedicated to this path I am on, despite reservations, doubts and fear, I know I always have you to keep me going in the right direction 😉 

Gill Attwood 

Took some time for self care today and read some of your book, I find it really helps ground me when I feel overwhelmed. Also meant to message to say that I am loving the self love December, LOVE it ❤

Shachar 

It is the nicest feeling to give myself permission to exist and not act on the distractions that have been so long taking away my being so in love with myself.
Suddenly life is good.

Matshidiso 

Thanks Eilat,

This (and all your posts) are really helpful and supportive. I have this image of you as a mighty ant, lifting disproportionate loads off the shoulders of others,
you must use magic 😉

Lots of love,

❝

I think you’re magic Eilat!   I always read your weekly letter and appreciate it. What motivated me to write to you today was to affirm you.  I so appreciate your courageous vulnerability in making explicit all the thought processes and decisions you go through in seeking to live out the truth of your book and in making all of that explicit, it gives others like me the courage to do that too.  And I also loved the story about saying no to making tea for your friend, at your partner’s request.  I almost held my breathe imagining how I would feel like I was in trouble for saying no to a request like that.  By sharing so honestly about your efforts to live out your intentions, it helps me to be more honest with myself.

Sending you love and a big hug of thanks,

Josie

Oh my word- I have loved this process so so much! I realise that I have come so far since first starting the course- the fact that I have done this and not had any anxiety over it- and trusted myself and my knowledge and who I am -has been life changing. 

❝

It was the most well invested process I have ever encountered up to now. I have done other less intense courses, listened to podcasts, read books but this course tapped into a deep understanding of the importance of loving yourself and by loving yourself you are able to love others, be better and fully present to and for others and be the best possible you to others and all situations because you listen to your inner truth and until you listen to your inner truth to guide you and help you, situations, life will find a way of letting you know that you need to listen to what your inner truth is saying. 

❝

I used the ALLOW to help me in a decision to do a live panel discussion online with some well-known professionals in the field.

I was pretty anxious and I normally would have made some excuse and said no. Using the ALLOW process, I was able to see that actually saying yes was the right thing for me (although scary). The workshop last weekend also helped me to reframe this event and recognise that as a psychologist in this field, I have a lot of unique information to add and that my presence there was valuable.

 It was really helpful and I did the panel discussion, feeling relatively calm and like I could do it.

This was a HUGE win for me.  So thank you. 

“Have so loved this course. I can't thank you enough for the growth I am getting from it! I am so glad I jumped in and stretched myself to do this one. I used to avoid confrontation and I’d say yes to everything and then resent it. Now I’m just saying, “Sorry this doesn’t suit me” and I feel fine about it! My colleagues at the practice who have known me for more than a decade have commented on the positive changes in me. They’ve started asking about this course I’m doing.”
Dr J, MD

Thank you for resuscitating me! This course has reunited me with the truest part of my being that I had lost, or merely forgotten, in the hustle of living. This work has left deep footprints in my heart and my being and the tools have allowed me to feel I have permission to exist. And for the first time, in many years, I am abundant in my existence and not merely surviving moments. There is something I've been putting off for years. Until now.  I now know the direction I want to go. I’ve had realizations and revelations within myself. The power of these realization are transformative and transcendent. I see now, I am enough. My efforts are enough. Thank you for the necessary work you are doing. Work that will transform generations to come. Work that ALLOWs, and brings with it permission to exist!
Janine, Counselling Psychologist.

"You know I joined this course, if I'm honest, initially because I thought the CPD points looked amazing. And then it turned out to go from just a CPD function to something that I feel has turned my whole life around in these few months. I'm taking much better care of myself, I'm establishing better boundaries, with my spouse, with my patients...and it's just been so liberating. I've been eating better, taking better care of my health, and on the whole, I just feel like a whole new person but a person that I love. And a person that I'm a lot more proud of. A few dreams that I've wanted from childhood that I've actually made the time and effort for... a lot of self-love decisions. I feel like this is the best thing that has ever happened to me. No course or anything that I have attended has changed me, and caused so much self-love, as this course. It's just been a wonderful, emotional, exhilarating ride." Dr M, Radiation Oncologist

It's given me courage...

"I Just have to say, this IILM is such a *huge gigantic gift* you’re giving us all !! This week I had 2 huge shifts when I had to choose and so I applied IILM which calmed my entire nervous system and made me so happy! I also learnt and FELT what you’ve been telling us - the wisdom is *within*, we just have to access it! And yesterday I was thinking of telling my buddy group this - (which I will) that ALL the resources are there within, completely FREE OF CHARGE… WAITING to be accessed. We don’t need to join a membership with passcodes, swipe a credit card and buy it, go somewhere to get it, IT IS ALL HERE within me all the time every day all day, at any time! My heart actually skipped a beat thinking of this wonderful “machine”/being that we are - wow wow wow!! I am so happy today I want to run up a mountain! And it’s something I might have known (remotely) for years but didn’t internalise or FEEL it like this ever before. And what a gift to give others in counselling them - they have all the answers already and we assist to access that source. You have no idea how grateful I am that you’ve designed this programme! You must have had divine angelic intervention!! It has already changed so much about me and how I approach difficult tasks and situations. I love myself first and go within to access my wisdom and live that sense of peace and absolute freedom to choose. Thank you so, so much Eilat!!!!!"
E Besselar, Psychologist.


“Eilat’s course has been so valuable in my clinical work. I have found that integrating her framework with other models has allowed for quicker shifts and responses in clients. The ethical component has helped me to think about how often clients' self-care is not addressed in the room. It has also highlighted my own ethical responsibility to track my own self-care and this has been so helpful, given the drastic increase in the demand for therapy and need for professionals to take care of themselves. It has been an incredible journey and I am grateful to Eilat for offering this workshop to professionals.” -
D, Counselling Psychologist

“I am incredibly grateful to have been introduced to you and your course …. And this incredible group.” 
M, Educational Psychologist


“My friendships have changed. They are deeper and more real in a most wonderful way. I’m really enjoying it. Even my relationship with my family has softened all because I’m learning to actually do what I want to do and I’m speaking out more. My friend said it’s like I suddenly have a quiet confidence about me.” 
J, Christian Counsellor


“I’m being much kinder to myself in my mind now. I’ve never felt this kind of love for myself before. It’s really wonderful. I’m so grateful I chose to do this course.”

“My relationship with myself and with others in my life feels safer and more satisfying. I feel like I’ve come home to myself and I can trust myself more. And the Buddy System has been SO supportive.”
