Prof. Dr. med. H. Woelk praises the positive effect of emotional slimming training on the human psyche: “The Dagmar Herzog Method (DHM) starts with the emotions, because negative emotions are what make us reproduce limiting behavior patterns again and again. With her method it is possible to superimpose positive emotions on negative ones and thus fundamentally change one’s own behavior. Dagmar Herzog has succeeded in implementing and applying the findings of emotion research in a particularly intensive way. The professionally and extraordinarily elaborately designed training CDs enable daily work with emotions and thus explain the rapid and – with constant application and practice – long-term success of the Herzog Method. Experiencing positive emotions helps to reduce stress hormones and improve anxiety or sleep disorders.
The mood is lightened, the metabolism is positively stimulated, the immune system is strengthened. Depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, psychosomatic and functional complaints can also be significantly improved or even partially cured.”

“The German health care system faces primarily a quality problem, which is, however, at the same time linked to a financing problem. Especially so-called diseases of civilization (e.g. diabetes, depression) increasingly determine the health science discussion. […] Care offers of the future must therefore be oriented much more strongly at the individual surrounding field of the patient and consider also holistic the life situation of the patient. The Herzog Method can serve as an example for this, which enables doctors and patients alike to help themselves and, based on the findings of current emotion research, aims to eliminate the cause of disorders.”

The Gesellschaft für Ernährungsmedizin und Diätetik e.V. (Society for Nutritional Medicine and Dietetics) says: "Obesity is the scourge of the 21st century. 52 to 55 percent of women and 66 to 67 percent of men suffer from overweight (body mass index greater than 25). Although the dramatic consequences of obesity, diabetes mellitus type 2, high blood pressure and diseases of the cardiovascular system, have long been no secret, the number of overweight people continues to rise. [...] This method [by Dagmar Herzog, editor's note] thus offers a sustainable solution to the problem and promises long-term success in the therapy of obesity."

"Our children Simon and Paula (6) suddenly started to have sleeping problems due to many changes in our lives. They had trouble falling asleep and often woke up several times during the night. My son even had panic attacks at night and I could only calm him down after 1 hour of hugging him tightly. I tried the Emotional Kids Training with both of them. The first time they listened to it I was with them, the second night they listened to it alone. After 1 week my son has not had a panic attack since and sleeps through most of the nights. My daughter says that she has much better dreams. A really great program, which helped us a lot!"

"The audio training has totally changed my life. I am no longer afraid of the next day, I feel good about myself and I no longer feel like my life is a constant challenge. I live my full life, experience strong feelings of happiness every day and have energy. This is a new experience for me!"
