Emotional Flatlining (Anhedonia) Brain Training Program

A message from Jackie Kelm:

I am sorry that I am no longer able to offer this program. This was not an easy decision. The program has helped many people but unfortunately there are no longer enough program sales to cover the ongoing costs.

There is a new therapy called PAT (Positive Affect Treatment) that is similiar. Here are some links to check it out, or do a search on it. It is not widely available yet, but I think it’s the best solution out there so far.

Have you stopped feeling anything positive?

Are you emotionally numb?

Have you lost interest in everything and everyone?

Discover How Others Have Gotten Their Full Range of Feelings Back without Medication or Diet Changes and How You Can Too!!

Hi – I’m Jackie Kelm, and in 2013 my life was devastated by emotional flatlining. I felt absolutely nothing positive. I lost interest in everything and everyone. I could not enjoy hobbies, vacations, getting together with friends – even food had no pleasure. And worst of all I felt absolutely no love or connection with anyone, including my own children.

I felt like a zombie – numb to everything. My life felt pointless.

This went on for months before I finally pushed myself to look for answers. (I didn’t even have the motivation to get better.) I talked to doctors, changed my diet, tried supplements and other alternative approaches, but nothing worked. I was desperate to get my life back from the clutches of anhedonia – the medical term for this emotional black hole.

Finally, a year later, I FOUND THE ANSWER while researching the brain and emotions. What I found was that doing a specific set of exercises restored my full range and depth of feelings. I was able to climb out of the black hole!

If you are experiencing any of these effects of Emotional Flatlining (Anhedonia) like I did, there’s hope:

• I couldn’t care less about my children, my husband, my cat, and all the people in my life I used to love.
• I had no interest in going on vacation, hanging out with friends, watching shows I liked, or doing anything I used to find enjoyable.
• I was numb to sunsets, cute animals, flowers, and all the other things I used to find beautiful or that made me feel good.
• I had to push myself to do anything. I had no motivation whatsoever.
• I often found it hard to focus, concentrate, and follow conversations.
• I had difficulty remembering.

The worst part was that no one understood what I was going through. They kept telling me I was depressed, but I had struggled with depression for many years and this was different. I was told to “focus on good things,” which was enraging because it didn’t matter what I focused on, thought about, or did. My brain could not produce a positive emotion any more than a broken faucet can produce water.

I could still feel negative emotions like anger, sadness, or frustration, but none of the good ones. But at the same time, I couldn’t feel grief – because you have to care about someone to grieve their loss, and I could not feel the emotion of caring.  It was devastating and felt completely hopeless.

If you can relate to this these experiences then the Brain Training exercises that I developed may be able to help you feel again and get your life back!

I wasted a lot of time and money trying things that didn’t help, and while that was frustrating and expensive, the worst part is that I became more and more hopeless each time I tried something that didn’t work. I felt completely alone and began to believe there was no answer and I would have to live with this the rest of my life.

It’s been my life’s mission ever since I overcame flatlining to help others, because I don’t want one more person to suffer alone.

That’s why I took all the best exercises that worked for me and others and created the Emotional Flatlining Brain Training program, to help people just like YOU to get their life back!

Here’s just some of what those who successfully completed the brain training program have been able to achieve:

• They were able to get their full range and depth of positive feelings back without medications, supplements, or diet changes.
• They were able to feel loving and connected to friends and family just like before.
• They regained interest in all the things they used to enjoy doing.
• They returned to their full level of enjoyment in intimacy (See the FAQ below for PSSD)
• They recovered their ability to focus, concentrate, remember, and follow conversations.
• Their enjoyment and interest in food, music, and pleasurable activities returned.
• Their life was meaningful again!

You may be thinking, how does Jackie have an answer to this when no-one else does?

Honestly, I wondered the same thing for years!  And from what I have found, there are three reasons I have identified:

First, there is something similar being done in  neuroscience research now for people with anhedonia using a technique very similar to the one I created. It’s called PAT or Positive Affect Treatment. You can search on it at PubMed to learn more.

Next is that I struggled with anhedonia and depression myself, so I was able to see they are distinct conditions while the medical community continues to diagnose and treat them as the same.

Third is that I have been coaching people for over 15 years on how to improve their life through my business called Appreciative Living, and already understood a lot of the underlying mechanisms of positive emotion and how to create training programs to increase it.

Finally, I am an engineer and have been studying neuroscience, and was able to understand it well enough to figure out what was going on and create a brain training program. I think the very unusual combination of all three of these factors has allowed me to not just find an answer, but also create a program that works.

More Success Stories from Program Participants

“My base feelings are back 100%. I was around 19 years old when I developed anhedonia, and I just healed it at almost 31. I went my entire adult life in flatlining, so do not let this discourage you! Also don’t let the simplicity of the program fool you! I know it seems too simple to be true. You’ve tried so many things – counselors, medication, maybe even retreats, meditation, etc. – how could simple exercises of thinking good things fix this seemingly unfixable problem? It does! It works! I only spent 15 minutes per day on the exercises. I was completely flat and then became completely healed.”

“I have been doing this program for about 5 months now and it has changed my life dramatically. Every week I am getting better. Before joining I was totally flat with zero emotion in all areas of life. I understand this program sounds too good to be true but it actually works. Many of us who have completed the program have all felt the same emotions and skepticism but we pushed through and completed it. In the beginning I was about a 1 in the emotional scale but after a couple months I was 5 or 6. I truly started to believe in this program when my love for music and my family started to appear. Thank you for jackie and all she has done for me the program truly works.”
