At the start of this year, I experienced some intense anxiety and stress that ended up as a panic attack. I didn’t realise it at the time, but anxiety has been there as long as I can remember. I grew up as a gang kid in a broken home and had terrible relationships with others, which, as you can imagine, left its mark. However, the most obvious wins of breaking the cycle and doing well leading into adulthood hid a lot of underlying mess that was taking its toll. So when it finally reached its boiling point, I realised that I needed to face my past and really sort through it. I sought the traditional route of counselling, which ended up giving me a plan for 44 sessions a year for 3 years. My heart dropped and I left feeling hopeless, disappointed, and angry. Thankfully, after telling all this to Rico, he laughed and said, “Bro, let’s go”, which just alleviated everything. I joined the NeuroFit Cohort program and over the 8 sessions, we did not play around. It felt like my life experience went from a hoarder’s garage to a neatly organised suitcase. The weight of it all became nothing. I actively forgave and consciously disagreed with people’s words, actions, and expectations that I had been carrying since a kid. It wasn’t fluffy work. It took being vulnerable and real with myself. My circumstances haven’t gotten better, but now I’m so much more resilient. Every week, I slowly realise that certain people and things are not affecting me like they did only months ago. Couldn’t recommend this program enough to anybody.

I have struggled with my mental health for most of my life without even realising it. It got to the point where I couldn’t ignore my anxiety and depression anymore around 6 years ago. I wasn’t able to go to any events because my anxiety was so bad that I couldn’t leave my house, I had very intense suicide ideation, and I was sleeping around 16 hours a day because depression left me too tired to function. I took a year off, enrolled in therapy with a clinical psychologist for 3 years and then went on antidepressants for 2 years. All of this was helpful and did get me to a place where I felt stable and able to function but I had no hope that I would enjoy life or be able to live without antidepressants. My partner recommended that I try NeuroFit with Rico and I am so glad that he did. When I first started NeuroFit I was sceptical and did not think that it would help me anymore than the previous years of therapy had. Rico was very understanding and said that he would hold my hope for me until I was ready. I think it was around the 4-week mark into the 7-week program where I stopped being sceptical and was able to believe that I could be happy with who I am and my life. The tools that I learned from NeuroFit have enabled me to feel more accomplished and comfortable while completing my PhD, navigate some difficult personal circumstances, and break some really harmful thought patterns. I am still amazed at how different I feel and how much happier I could be after only 7 weeks. There have been some difficult periods where I slip back into negative thought patterns but I can now recognise these times and I have the tools to work through them. I would (and have) recommend NeuroFit to everyone in my life that is struggling with mental mess. I am now not taking antidepressants and I am feeling so much more hopeful about my future and my present.

I was in a desperate place, feeling it was hopeless. I reached out to find out more about NeuroFit. At the start I had a few hesitations: First one was the cost, I hesitated thinking that’s a lot of money, what if I don’t get the results. In the end I decided I was valuable enough to invest into my future (I would not hesitate to pay if it was my car) so I was determined to prioritise myself for a change. My other hesitation was that I would not understand what he would be talking about and this would affect me working with him. What I found is that Rico has an incredible way of explaining things. He was very good at breaking things down for me. For me the gold I found in this was gaining knowledge & understanding how my mind, brain & body effect each other and that I can change the way I think which will intern effect my body! After the first week I noticed results, my husband could not believe the change in me & how fast it was happening. When I came to Rico I was: -Burnt out -Had Anxiety -Breathing disorder -Low mood -Stressed -Fearful -Sore shoulders & neck -A lot of tension in my body -Battled with dyslexia and reading books! My anxiety has gone right down, I know what to do if anxiety or fear come up, tension in my body has gone. I can now do simple jobs again. I have retrained my breathing, I feel happy, joyful, and the best version of myself. I’m getting to know the real me! I actually like who I am as a person. It’s the first time I have been able to genuinely believe that about myself! I am even reading books now & enjoying it. I never realised I could feel so good in myself. I feel free to be me. I now have the capacity to do normal life. I am so grateful for Rico taking the time with me. My husband was so excited for me, now he has started the program for himself. I would highly recommend the NeuroFit Coaching Program! It is by far the best investment I have ever made, I am a better wife, mother, sister, overall a better person. I now love who I am and am so thankful I did this programme

I came to NeuroFit after attempting to end my life! Having my Professional sporting career end with concussion, going through a failed relationship, full of anxiety and depression, lacking identity, motivation, purpose and had a-lot of internal unresolved trauma affecting every minute of my life. Through my journey on the NeuroFit program I learnt to deal with the root of my anxiety, I built a resilience in myself I never knew existed, any self doubt was diminished and i had a new found drive and purpose for life. I am now off pills and no longer battling with depression! The fact you have to delve internally to grow is incredibly daunting and is really difficult to do but the processes, knowledge and tools Rico possessed and shared is incredibly encouraging, motivating and allows for authenticity and trust. This is a true testament to the man he is in both his personal and professional life. I have a new found love for reading, I attend church regularly and am so encouraged by the results, I want to now inspire my pairs and help society to grow as people. I never thought this was possible prior to starting with Rico. I whole heartily recommend the NeuroFit kaupapa to anyone experiencing any unrest and uncertainty in their lives in what ever capacity that may be. He has enabled me to change my life physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually and will no doubt help you to discover the best you possible as well. We are all students to to our own being, invest in yourself, put in the work and let God do the rest. Anton
