"I can go into the ringing without going towards depression."
- Frank G.
"Tinnitus doesn't seem like a terrible curse anymore. It's sometimes annoying now but not insurmountable."
- Sonia L.
"I can see it (tinnitus) now as just another sensation, typically unpleasant, rarely neutral, never pleasant, but I try to be aware without judging."
- Thomas G.
"Each and every day I think about you saying that there are pleasant, unpleasant, and neutral moments. I smile every time I remember this and I remember you saying it. Sometimes, I ask myself is this an unpleasant or neutral experience? 99.9% of the time the answer is it is a neutral experience."
- Sanjay H.
"I am taking a more relaxed approach overall and just allowing tinnitus to be there."
- Santiago P.
"I am sleeping in a more regular pattern now. When I take medication to sleep, I'm taking half instead of the full dose."
- Chantel J.
"In one of our sessions, you said when going to sleep, "Just let go." Man oh man, has that helped me. I'm a planner, and I used to plan out the next day as I was laying in bed waiting to go to sleep. Bad idea. Now when I go to bed, I just monitor my breathing or go into choiceless awareness mode. I absolutely refuse to follow any goofy thoughts my thinking mind brings up. I just let go. Next thing I know it is morning. Fantastic."
- Micaela G.
"We had a power failure last night just before I was going to bed, which meant my white noise generators would not work. And, because I'm getting ready to put my house on the market, my battery-powered white noise generators are in storage. Before our study I would have gone into a complete panic thinking about going to bed without white noise. I would have broken into a cold sweat. But because of our sit-down meditation in which we breathe into the ringing, I knew I could handle silence in bed. Thank you, the study saved me from having a panic attack. Whew, close call."
- Robert D.
"Tinnitus does not impact me emotionally since I experience it as a sensation that will come and go."
- Phillip G.
"I have begun to meditate regularly. I have combined the learnings from the MBTSR class with other work."
- Mark R.
"I'm more mindful in daily life. I concentrate on breathing while waiting in line at the store."
- Todd M.
"The stress reduction aspect is very useful. Regardless of the tinnitus, it is been very useful to learn to meditate and being mindful in nearly everything I do."
- Bill W.
"I am trying to relax more, sleep better and longer. I watch what food I eat and try to take a walk or other exercise each day."
- Victoria S.
"I am less afraid to be inside of a room or a building."
- Joan B.
"I have realized that my body deserves love and care. It is valuable to view myself as a custodian of my body. I treat it better and appreciate it more now."
- Sam L.
