Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Going to the doctor’s office produces a tremendous amount of anxiety for me. I usually down a Pepto chewable or two before walking in the door, my hands feel clammy, my stomach is upset; I am miserable and scared. Sitting there for over an hour, waiting to be x-rayed, I was starting to freak out. The Spire stone was buzzing, telling me I was in a tense streak (2 minutes or more). I had no headphones; I couldn’t Boost (Spire has audio sessions that guide you through getting from tense to calm) without looking like a complete idiot. So, I decided just to sit there, look at the breath wave and try to achieve a calm streak. (See the pic) Couldn’t hurt, right? Up and Down, Up and Down. 2 minutes in I hit the streak. Once I hit the streak I just focused on continuing it. It became more of a game. At 30 minutes, I realized I wasn’t freaked out at all any more. I was…Calm. I logged an additional 39 minutes after the x-ray, sitting in the examination room waiting for my results. Hello! After the x-ray while WAITING for the “bad” news I logged 39 MORE minutes of Calm. I bought my Spire as an anti-jerk device in meetings (you’re tense buzz buzz); instead it helped me regain control when at my most fearful. I’m not suddenly less afraid of going to the doctor, but for the first time I feel much better equipped. Transformed is a better word. Thank you for making Spire.
