What the Media have Reported about UniMed Brisbane is not my Experience

by Donna Harris, Brisbane, Australia, PA to General Manager/Office Administrator for QLD, Diploma in Business Administration – Front Line Management, Justice of the Peace (Qualified) 20 years

I am a single mum with a young daughter, and a couple of years ago I was diagnosed with a brain tumour. The Universal Medicine Practitioners at the Brisbane Clinic have been supportive beyond words during this time.

So that I might have the support I required over that time of my treatment and recovery my daughter and I stayed at the Brisbane UniMed Clinic for three months. Not only did I receive the utmost in care, but I was also supported through doctor’s appointments and financially, as I was unable to work. I was given the love and care that was needed and not once during this time was a treatment ever based on whether I could afford it or not. What was even more honourable was that all of this was done without any expectations in return! So it was with utter shock and disbelief that I read in a prominent Brisbane newspaper recently that UniMed Brisbane was a business that was ‘out for profit’ when here I could see that the focus is not on profit, but on giving back to the community through hundreds of people who, like myself, have been ill at one time or another and required support. This was such a critical time in my life and people from all over Brisbane also associated with Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon joined in to support my recovery. I have NEVER felt so supported in my entire life! This kind of support is truly rare and should be celebrated.

Living in the UniMed Brisbane clinic for three months is now one of the greatest markers I have in my life. I had, for the very first time in my life, living examples all around me of how to deeply care for and nurture myself and my daughter. The practitioners that helped me in my recovery were just like me, living normal lives and responding to what they felt was true for them – none of them being told what to do/eat/how to sleep, each of them different to the other (contrary to what the press has erroneously reported). No one was ever imposed on with what they should or should not eat. It was left to the individual to feel what effect food had on their own bodies and make their choices based on that.

Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have inspired me to look after myself first, and in doing so I have rediscovered a love within myself that I thought was ‘out there’. At no time have I ever been told that an Esoteric Breast Massage cures cancer as some articles have so falsely misled their readers to believe, yet the Esoteric Breast Massages have played an instrumental part, with profound results, in helping me to develop and look after myself as a Woman. My life is richer, more balanced and clearer than it’s ever been. I am a better person to be around and this has only deepened over the years. The Universal Medicine teachings are so simple, practical and down to earth – they are a parcel of Truth out there that, until Serge came along, no-one else has had the courage to present. I thank UniMed and their team in my heart every day for this wonderful opportunity to live a more fulfilling life.

  1. This is the real story the public need to here. What a wonderful transformation and what wonderful organisation Universal Medicine is.

  2. ‘I was given the love and care that was needed and not once during this time was a treatment ever based on whether I could afford it or not. What was even more honourable was that all of this was done without any expectations in return!’ AMAZING! We could do with a lot more of this in the world. Universal Medicine really does set the standard when it comes to true care, integrity, quality and making it about people.

  3. ‘I have NEVER felt so supported in my entire life! This kind of support is truly rare and should be celebrated.’ This says it all and from my experience it has been exactly the same. Universal Medicine is about people first and foremost and never ever about profit that is a fact.

  4. Life is imposing it imposes the rules and regulation that we have to abide by they are unfair and unjust as the rules favour the few over the many, which equals control.
    Since knowing Serge Benhayon Universal Medicine I can truthfully say I have not been imposed upon quite the opposite in fact and that is the nub of my change around because I have been left to work things out for myself based on my understanding and as this has deepened then more has naturally opened up for me to be aware of. Too me this is true education.

  5. Giving back to our community in simple practical ways and not have an ounce of recognition, is an aspect of The-Deep-Humble-Appreciative-Ness that is a part of what The Students of The Livingness bring so willingly.

  6. It doesn’t surprise me that you were cared for so well Donna at UniMed Brisbane because the staff there live from the inner heart (the soul), which is to live from love and truth, and taking care of others is a natural part of that. This is what brotherhood is, an all encompassing love holding all equally and lending a hand to our fellow man. I’m so pleased you experienced this when you needed care, and your experience exposes the lies the media have chosen to run with about Universal Medicine Brisbane.

  7. This story should be printed in the newspapers and be recorded for history to see and read. To me it sounds absolutely amazing that someone or some organization would do this for someone else.

  8. The UniMed Brisbane clinic is a thriving centre for true health and wellbeing and therefore nothing like how the media like to portray it or any other Universal Medicine clinic for that matter.

  9. Even the best intentions and practices can turn into something ill-intentioned when it falls under the hands of someone who has an agenda which has no interest in truth whatsoever; just pure malevolence. Yet, the truth remains untouched.

  10. It’s absurd to paint Universal Medicine as a “out for profit” company – I constantly see, hear and experience myself the generosity, absolute care and brilliance of this business. And I can categorically say that nothing about Universal Medicine is about making money, but about really supporting people with their health and well being and offering tools that support us with life – and that is incredibly rare.

  11. People’s lived experience of a service is what I mainly listen to in regards to accessing a service and even that needs to be discerned.

  12. It seems that there are so many lies told about Universal Medicine because what Universal Medicine offers exposes how far from true care and love most businesses are and people don’t like to see this so shaming and blaming is the easy way out for now.

  13. The integrity and deep care, with no expectation of return or profit has equally been my experience of Universal Medicine over here in England. No matter where it is the quality holds itself throughout the organisation. Anything said otherwise is a pure lie.

  14. There is much about Universal Medicine that deserves to be celebrated. If anyone was truly looking to see the truth, you only need to observe the students of The Way of The Livingness to see incredible transformations of many lives inspired by the teachings, principles and healing modalities presented by Serge Benhayon. For this truth you cannot argue with.

  15. Through my association with Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, I have come to have a much deeper appreciation of the power there is in words. Like many people I used to believe what is generally believed in society – that words don’t really affect people. But they do and this is very clear to me now and is something those in the media must come to appreciate and respect. If we have any sense of respect and responsibility for our world, our communities and our fellow man, we need to use words wisely – more so than we currently do.

  16. What a beautiful experience that puts to shame what has been reported about Universal Medicine. This is newsworthy and inspiring yet lies make it to print.

  17. In today’s world where reality shows are all the go, one would think that real life experiences as shared here would make first page news. Or do they not, because there is no emotional hook when one shares with the honesty and humility that Donna has.

  18. What UniMed Brisbane offers is true community, that is a community where people genuinely care about each other and not because they belong to a certain cultural group, religion, football club etc but simply because they are fellow human beings.

  19. What the media often omit are the actual facts from people’s experience that would otherwise tell a completely different story. Yet sensationalism and selling papers is the predominant drive of the media today which is to the complete disregard of all those they are writing about.

  20. Donna I loved reading about your experience and support that you were given by Universal Medicine, they are so supportive when you need someone to be there and deliver the truth you need to hear too, the bad press only goes to show how little the journalists have truly looked into what Universal Medicine offers humanity.

  21. This is a powerful testimony Donna on the true services and quality care that UniMed Brisbane offers to everyone equally – thank you for setting the record straight and exposing the lies that were published.

  22. Let’s ask ourselves, how many places like UniMed Brisbane are out there that could match what they offer to their communities as an overall package? I would say not many if any at all.

  23. What UniMed Brisbane offers is one of our most natural inclinations towards fellow human beings. We have just become so accustomed to expecting an agenda behind someone offering support, particularly if it is outside our closest family or friendship groups. It is also increasingly hard for many to accept this sort of true support with nothing asked in return as payment or favour.

  24. The level of care and commitment to themselves and the communities they live and work with continue to inspire others to find a true way of being and living in the world. There is a true story of fact to be written with no fiction required to make it amazing.

  25. The problem with the media is that there is no regulation. And of course, neither should it be, cries the defender of free speech. Of course, the downside to that is that there is very little to hold the media to account, and very little to prevent those that hold the power of persuasion in there hands from abusing that power to their own ends and means.

  26. The generosity that Donna describes does seem remarkable by present day standards yet wherever in the world that is the norm within the Universal Medicine community. I can attest to that from personal experience here in the UK and I know of many people from many different countries who say the same thing..

  27. The generosity, love and support that is offered by Universal Medicine is second to none, I mean none. I have never been treated so well by anyone and as Donna points out in this blog, they expect nothing in return, there is no agenda. This type of fabric is what our society should be made up of and I feel like once upon a time it was; we use to care for each other like this. What Universal Medicine is offering is us returning to something we already know, and that is to truly love thy neighbour, we must love thyself.

  28. Don’t you love when you get the facts of the matter or the truth of what is really going on? I do and I while I didn’t read the article that this blog relates too I can see the level of care and generosity you were shown by Universal Medicine in Brisbane and Universal Medicine in general leaves me no doubt who I would be calling if it was needed. It’s great for people to share their real life experiences of what something is as far too often these days we seem to be getting only parts of a story through our traditional media channels Maybe at some point we will call for this to change and possibly a blog like this is already part of that change, which ever way it goes you can’t deny what in fact happened in this case. Thank you for the blog and making clear what in this actually happened and I am sure others now and in the future will appreciate the same thing.

  29. Thank you Donna for giving an honest account of your experience. I question whether the journalists were speaking from experience, because I’ve read many a testimonial like yours that suggests nothing untoward about the Universal Medicine Clinic both in Brisbane and in Goonelabah, NSW, and everything about the utmost care, love and attention received.

  30. There is no doubt truth exposes. I have felt on numerous occasions uncomfortable in my seat with what Serge Benhayon was saying. It wasn’t because what was being said wasn’t true but the fact that what was being said was true and I didn’t want to hear it because I was being offered to take a look more deeply at the choices I was making. We can embrace truth to evolve or we can slam the door and pull down the messenger – the choice is ours.

  31. To hear your experience of the loving and supportive care that you received from the team at Unimed Brisbane during the time of your health challenge, Donna, totally dismantles what the media reported to the contrary. Sadly though in today’s world stories like yours don’t seem to get the same press as sensationalist ones like ‘Universal Medicine is a cult’, but it seems to me that these are the stories a great percentage of society want to read so naturally the media provides them. Now that doesn’t make sense to me, so what does that say about where we have come to as a society when stories full of lies an innuendoes appeal to us more than ones of real and true life?

  32. Donna it is such a joy to read about what you have experienced through the help of people associated with Universal Medicine during recovering from your brain tumor. Imagine we all would support each other like this our world would surly be different.

  33. When you live quality and integrity by example you also lead by inspiration for others in a way that is both genuine and solid. But, the choice if they want to actually be inspired and step up with you is always theirs.

  34. It really is disgusting how the media can portray UniMed Brisbane to be anything other than the true love and support it is. I have stayed there and also received treatments and support from thsee amazing family of practitioners. Just like the clinic in Goonellabah the quality and standard is the highest around.

  35. The innocent confusion about the lies being spread about Unimed Brisbane and Universal Medicine is palpable in your words, which is powerful beyond measure.

  36. Thank you for writing this Donna. The true generosity of what was offered from the Universal Medicine clinic through your personal healing is so inspiring. These are the stories that are of interest to others.

  37. This is such a beautiful story and a clear example of true charity in motion. Supporting others with no need for recognition, with no expectation of ‘paying back’ and with absolutely zero self-interest – not even the ‘warm inner glow’ many of us like to get from the help we provide or the time or money we donate. We can enjoy service work – that’s cool – but start to use it get something from it and already we’ve strayed into the realm of self-interest.

  38. This is truly newsworthy yet it has never made the media. Why is that? Do stories such as these seem to unbelievable in the world today? Does society only like to report those that are scandalous (even if they are lies) and not those that show the love that we as humanity are capable of?

  39. Wow Donna, the support you received is amazing. I am not surprised since my experience of Universal Medicine is also one of absolute love and generosity – without expectation for anything to be returned. Your story should have been in the newspapers, not the lies that you read which were contrary to the truth of your experience. There is a definite lack of integrity in the media reporting around Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon. Nothing in the media I have seen or read has reflected my experiences either.

  40. It’s scary how much power the press have to make up stories and portray anyone they wish in a negative light, without any factual evidence to back it up. It makes a mockery of our democratic societies when we accept a media that doesn’t actually operate with integrity and is willing to lie to fit an angle that suits their story. Donna’s story is a perfect example, you read of how far removed her experience is from that reported and you wonder if there is ever any comeback to this to set the record straight. Alternative forms of media are becoming more popular now as people are waking up to the fact that our current news sources have badly let us down.

  41. Donna, it’s lovely to read your heartfelt appreciation of the Brisbane Unimed Clinic. There are clinics like this in many of the major cities in Australia and in the UK and Europe which have been set up by students of Universal Medicine to offer the general public an opportunity for healing and they all have the same integrity and offer true support for people.

  42. “. . .all of this was done without any expectations in return!” When people make true service their purpose in life they need no reward or accolades for the joy is in bringing everything to what one does and feeling the day complete from having fully expressed.

  43. Thank you Donna for sharing the truth of your experience of Universal Medicine – something which sadly it seems we cannot rely on our media ‘professionals’ to do. They are missing a truly amazing story here.

  44. Your experience shared here Donna, is an example of true support. I do hope that many who work in charities, or volunteer to help and support others find this article and stop to read it, and consider what it is you present here. As to care for another as Unimed Brisbane has cared for you could be the answer to the level of exhaustion and frustration that many feel in the role of volunteer.

  45. Wow, support like this is to be celebrated. Why the media is not reporting such stories is very exposing of them. I have seen similar support in many ways. Most recently a 2 week roster circulated for a mum about to give birth. 2 meals a day for 2 weeks will be provided by the community – by their own choice, willingness and love. There is no pressure or obligation to provide. Some people even responded saying they were not well or that they were not in a position to be able to provide for others at the moment.

  46. True experiences like your own and many others are not sought out by the Media because they have already setup a picture of the story they are committed to presenting – often a lie in the making. There are many people that have shared the amazing support of Unimed Brisbane and other Unimed Clinic’s and practitioners and in truth that is what true brotherhood is. Thank you for speaking up and sharing this healing time with us all.

  47. How interesting that your personal experiences of Universal Medicine (and that of many others) is exactly the opposite of what is printed in the media. It’s also interesting that those that have written about Universal Medicine have barely spoken to those having personal experiences. So it raises the question about where are they obtaining their information when they are not speaking directly with clients like yourself and hearing about the amazing stories and lives that are now being lived. Real news that actually makes a difference to the lives of others.

  48. I have attended the UniMed Brisbane clinic as a client for sessions and visited a friend there and can attest to the fact that the care is exemplary and of the highest integrity; maybe some find this level of integrity too confronting and therefore react by spreading unfounded lies and malicious gossip?

  49. Its easy to feel a lie when it is in stark contrast to such a strong testimonial. Especially when this is not the only personal experience that has been shared about Universal Medicine, but one of many.

  50. With all the sensationalised stories the media shares with us I am starting to wonder if they do in fact hold back on sharing enough about the true link of our lifestyle related choices to our escalating stats of disease and illness that are presently ravaging the health and wellbeing of our society because it would require them themselves to assess and reflect on the quality and level of integrity of how they are living their own everyday.

  51. Wow it is clear how Universal Medicine is an inspiration to the world, the fact that they offered all that support with out any expectations in return is truly commendable. How blessed are we that we have an organisation like them showing us the way.

  52. The many ways in which Universal Medicine gives back and supports people is truly extraordinary and worth appreciating deeply. It is clear that this was a beautiful and life changing time for you that has continued to support you long after you have left.

  53. I have never been so closely associated with an organisation that has received such bad press and said complete lies against it and it has been such an eye opener because I know it to be untrue as you so do as well Donna because your experience has been the exact opposite to what has been written about. It has been a real eye opener to realise that so much of what we read is untrue. And by the way, I loved this line – “My life is richer, more balanced and clearer than it’s ever been.” So has mine so I’ll drink – a peppermint tea – to that!

  54. Like Donna say towards the end of the article, I am a better person to be around, and that in part is down to making choices based on teaching and presentations I have listened to by Universal Medicine. Yet I am a unique individual who has many flaws and many personal traits that make me who I am, and to suggest that anyone is coerced into living a certain way or being fleeced by this organisation is not true. But if you are in crisis or not sure your next move as so many people are nowadays, then in my opinion there is simply not a better philosophy to turn to than Universal Medicine to understand life and be supported to live with greater quality and care for yourself.

  55. This is a great example of the support given by the Universal Medicine Team and speaks volumes of the love and dedication available from this organisation.

  56. “I had, for the very first time in my life, living examples all around me of how to deeply care for and nurture myself and my daughter. The practitioners that helped me in my recovery were just like me, living normal lives and responding to what they felt was true for them ” Your experience demonstrates the complete falsity of the lies spread about Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon. Would that these detractors lived lives of such integrity, but then of course they would know love and truth and be inspired rather than spreading vicious rumours that have not one ounce of evidence to back them up.

  57. It is clear when presented love, true love that is, everything that is not love gets very very clearly exposed as a lie and falsity. The media’s presentations of UniMed Brisbane in this case are such an example where this is the case as their reporting clearly does not add up to the truth

  58. Another thing yet again the press has completely misinterpreted, with by the looks of it not speaking with people who actually HAVE had experience with the Universal Medicine Brisbane Clinic. The quality of love and care you received sounds very supportive and incredible, however I am not surprised as this is Universal Medicine and Universal Medicine Practitioners code of ethics and all I have EVER experienced as many if not thousands of others have is the genuine care for others and the absolute highest levels of integrity not only physically but also energetically. Why hasn’t this been reported about? Does it expose how media just want to publish lies and scandal!

  59. Thank you Donna for expressing the truth of what Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are offering humanity through sharing your lived experience.

  60. An amazing story Donna of the truth about Unimed Brisbane and Universal Medicine, the media choose to ignore the true care and support it offers its clients – one wonders why you would fabricate such lies when the truth would empower humanity.

  61. Thank-you Donna for yet another testament to the quality of care and the integrity that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine Practitioners are always willing to provide when the need is truly genuine. There is no need to ‘blowing their own trumpet’, no ‘do gooder’ hidden agenda, just a genuine service for humanity based on true love for all equally. “I thank Universal Medicine and their team in my heart every dray for this wonderful opportunity to live a more fulfilling life” Me too.

  62. The Universal Medicines clinics are centres of love that inspire those who attend to care for themselves with the same loving tenderness. “I thank UniMed and their team in my heart every day for this wonderful opportunity to live a more fulfilling life.” I agree Donna.

  63. I am also one of the people who has been inspired to make choices to begin to learn to care for myself. “Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have inspired me to look after myself first, and in doing so I have rediscovered a love within myself that I thought was ‘out there’.” I am surprised and enamoured, that every day I learn something more about life, about myself and I feel deeper understanding for humanity through learning to self care or self love.

    1. Samantha your words are inspiring I can feel the love and joy you have in deepening your understanding of humanity through self love, this is how the world changes by each of us loving and appreciating ourselves more we can then let this love out and truly love another.

  64. What Serge Benhayon presents is not new, it is simple and we all have access to this Divine Wisdom..but, yes, he was the first to have the courage to say it out loud (in our time)..

    1. And thank God for that!! What Serge Benhayon has grounded this time round is huge, humanity will never ever be the same again. The love he shares with us all is clearly showing us our way home after a very very long time of being lost in utter abyss.

  65. It is so far from the truth, all the hogwash about the Universal Medicine Clinic in Brisbane.
    How a reporter gets such an opinion is beside me. The clinic is the most loving of all clinics I have been blessed to get treatment from. Each of the staff and so gentle and sweet in nature and no media article can stop me from what I personally feel in my experience.

  66. Thank you Donna for sharing the amazing support you experienced at The Universal Medicine Brisbane Clinic. Living in England I have not been to any other Universal Medicine Clinics apart from the one in London and I must say the support love and care I feel as soon as I walk in the door is exceptional. It seems to me Universal Medicine clinics all over the world offer a true sanctuary of healing inspired by those truly living it.

  67. Donna, this is what true community life is all about. We are all here for one another, in the way of supporting in whatever way we can, that honours ourselves and that person equally in the process. We live largely as individuals and segregated groups in our societies, when a collaborative approach really would answer many of our current problems. Imagine how many less cars would be on the road, or elderly people that would be lonely if we lived with community life once again? We can live this way, and in harmony too. It may seem far from it with our current state of society, so fortunately Serge Benhayon is leading the way in inspiring us to see a different way we can be.

  68. What I have come to see over the years is where this type of journalism or bullying comes from. What Universal Medicine presents challenges many of the strangleholds on society through the fact that it offers services that truly inspire and drastically support people to change their lives, this in itself exposes self interest or things that as a society we have invested in that do not support people in the same way. Instead of looking at this it is easier to shut down and attempt to discredit the very thing that exposes all else.

  69. Wow what ‘support’, it is absurd to report a business to be out ‘for profit’ when such charity is being given. Thank you for sharing your story Donna.

  70. Thank you for giving your voice an expression, Donna. You are living proof of Universal Medicine’s charity. And I have witnessed this, too. It is a quality I have experienced with everybody associated with Universal Medicine, be it a practitioner, a presenter or a friend. They are generous, charitable, not from an idealistic foundation but from a foundation that first makes sure that there is self-care and no exploitation on any side.

  71. The true love and support offered by Universal Medicine and its practitioners is extraordinary. In a world where profits are put before people in a lot of businesses, Universal Medicine makes it about people first and providing true service that supports people to deeply heal.

  72. This is absolutely amazing Donna, I never ever heard of a clinic who supported their patients in such a way as the Universal Medicine clinics do. The support from Universal Medicine goes far beyond offering healing services. It is a business in its absolute true sense, where the financial benefits are just a side product of the amazing care and love they offer for their clients. It is all about people and what is needed for them in order to support them to go back into a healthy life and life the same way with others. Thats true charity!

  73. Absolutely Donna, I can only confirm this. I have stayed for one night in the Brisbane clinic, but what I felt and experienced was outstanding. I don’t need to be in a clinic for many days to observe and experience that it is a safe, professional place where they serve to the best high care possible, which I have never seen or heard of in my life.. Universal Medicine Brisbane is to be acknowledged for the true service it brings, and not be dismissed away with lies that dishonest and jealous people have come up with.

  74. Thank you Donna of standing up and correcting the inaccurate portrayal of the Unimed clinic in Brisbane. To be cared for the 3 months you were at Unimed Brisbane clinic sounded deeply supportive, and why is this not celebrated? A community coming together to assist a person through one of the toughest times in their lives? How is it that the real representation of the clinic is not reported – it appears to me that the newspaper story is based on judgement and assumption more than the truth.

  75. Thank you Donna for sharing your experience, this is very real. Presenting all that the clinic is and has provided you, contrary to all that has been said and written in the media. I would love to read more stories like yours, then all those sensationalist writings which present anything but the truth.

  76. How wonderful to be so supported in such a crucial time in your life. It’s sad and shameful that at a time when humanity could do with examples of truth and real charity in the world the media choose to lie about Unimed Brisbane and miss the chance to bring some light into a world full of turmoil.
    Your story is very inspiring Donna. What a truly honouring marker for you and all of us.

  77. What the media have reported about Universal Medicine is not the media’s experience either, because they have not bothered to thoroughly investigate or feel what Universal Medicine represents or has to offer.

    1. Spot on Joe, there was no true investigation despite a reporter spending an hour interviewing practitioners from UniMed Brisbane prior to the article being published. Not a word was printed nor taken any notice of. The truth was ignored and the paper printed the story it wanted to write, the sensational version made up a lies, innuendo and false accusations.

  78. Thank you for bringing appreciation to Unimed Brisbane Donna. The support you have received is incredible, a true blessing and something to be humble of, as its grandness is off the rector scale. It’s pretty much unheard of, unless it’s family, to give and not receive anything back financially. That it’s just done with so much care and support for another is amazing to hear about. Really amazing and shows what it’s all about- support, care and dedication.

  79. Thank you Donna for your powerful and heartfelt testimony of the foundation of love, care and service that UniMed Brisbane Clinic is based on. In fact I have noticed that all UniMed Clinics and in fact the whole of Universal Medicine has this foundation. As a direct result of what they offer and inspire I have regained my trust and openness to humanity and witnessing this unwavering integrity and the deep love, care and dedication to people has inspired me to work on building those qualities in my own life.

    1. The level of care and support that Universal Medicine bring is a huge dose of medicine in healing the plague of mistrust that almost all of us are/have suffered from. The way the practitioners relate to humanity is a marker as to how we can all be with each other and this has inspired so much change in not only my life but the lives of those around me.

  80. This is a beautiful story Donna, if only there were more clinics around the world offering the same love sand support in times of need as the Universal Medicine clinics. These papers that print such utter nonsense need to get their facts right or be held accountable.

  81. Truly great to read about the level of unconditional community support that Universal Medicine was able to bring you and your daughter at such a turning point in your life. This is a new blueprint for care in the community and one that is worthy of formal research investigation. I agree that Universal Medicine brings an absoluteness of truth to the table that no other modalities offer and there are many, many examples, including yours, of people turning around their lives simply by exerting their own free will in making choices that support their wellbeing rather than harming it. Thank you for adding your personal account to this ever growing number.

  82. Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon are very helpful when you have cancer and I have seen quite a few impressive recoveries and an amazing ability to have cancer treatments with a good quality of life.

    The same improvement is available when you consider yourself healthy. That is one of the surprises with Universal Medicine.

    1. I agree Christoph, the beautiful recovery stories that I have heard within the student body of Universal Medicine is remarkable. Those people that I have spoken with have all felt so deeply supported with the Healing that has taken place within all of the modalities that are on offer by Universal Medicine practitioners.

  83. Thank you Donna for sharing your factual account of what goes on within Universal Medicine , to read your words and compare them with what the media has written , exposes the corruption that drives the media to produce the sensationalised stories that are pulped out at the expense of people and truth to uphold an any thing goes attitude when it comes to ratings and sales.

  84. Thanks for this story Donna, I have also stayed at the UniMed Brisbane clinic and it is a wonderful example of a house and a clinic set up to serve.

  85. What a beautiful story Donna. It’s so very saddening what gets printed in the press. Your story is so much more worthy of being printed, and actually serves the community. Your choices to look after yourself are a joy to read. Thanks for sharing.

  86. I totally agree Donna – the kind of support that the UniMed Brisbane Clinic offers should be celebrated. They are leading the way in showing how to truly help people and assist the whole community.

  87. The suggestion that Unimed Brisbane is out for profit is ludicrous! Laughable in fact. Like you, Donna, my experience of the clinic and the practitioners who work there is one of utmost integrity and coming from a foundation of the highest level of love and respect for humanity. The assertion made in the paper you describe is the complete antithesis of what Universal Medicine Brisbane is.

  88. Blaming the Brisbane UniMed Clinic working for profit is absolutely ridiculous as first of all, like all UniMed Clinics, people are put first and it is never about profit which is clearly shown in this example and the many other to be read on this blogsite. Secondly live in a world where almost every private health clinic is set up first of all for profit, as most of businesses today. So why report about something that seems to be the norm with almost any other business instead of looking at the truly exceptional part of the UniMed Clinic – PEOPLE FIRST, profit second as a bi-product of the amazing service and quality offered. There is nothing bad about making profit, but it is important to look at how the profit is made and there all UniMed Clinics stand out for their absolute care and integrity.

  89. How amazing that you had this support image; what it would be like if that was available for every person if they wished it.

  90. I am yet to see a story in the Media about Universal Medicine that is true to my experiences also.

  91. I have never been to Unimed Brisbane but I am inspired by what you have shared that this is a clinic which has at its foundation a deep care and love for its community.

  92. Thanks you Donna, I have also experienced the same unconditional support from Universal medicine practitioners around the world. It seems to be a cornerstone of the approach taken presented by Serge Behayon, respectful and honouring above all else.

  93. What you have described is the new marker of how health care should be. Universal Medicine is showing us that medicine and getting well does need not come down to how much money you have. Thank you for sharing, very inspiring.

  94. Its beautiful to read of you experience of Universal Medicine and staying at the clinic, it is stories like yours that I know to be true as i have heard from the people themselves of theses real life accounts and my experience of Universal Medicine has always been one of love and support and never been about financial gain to the organisation.

  95. Now that’s the kind of story that newspapers could be publishing that shows not only the integrity and professionalism offered by those associated with Universal medicine but also the true care and support to those in need. What a beautiful sharing Donna.

  96. Thank you for your heartfelt sharing Donna. The testimonials from real people with their own experiences are so valuable and matter much more than the made up stories that aren’t checked and damaging and harming to people

  97. Your testimony is awesome, and as you say “Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have inspired me to look after myself first, and in doing so I have rediscovered a love within myself that I thought was ‘out there’”. Lovely way of describing what you have connected with, a love that comes from within.

  98. This is a beautiful and powerful testament to the unwavering love and support that Universal Medicine offers and a sharing that clearly exposes the utter fabrications being spread about them. Thank you for sharing your story… the level of care extended to you and the healing received was just gorgeous to read.

  99. Whilst I did not see the newspaper article you have mentioned Donna, it is stories like those that have stopped me reading newspapers altogether as I know the falsities of what has been written. Not that it is about spruiking, but how many newspaper or internet articles mention the countless hours of unpaid support given, with love by Universal Medicine. UM is painted to be a money grabbing operation when it is the complete opposite, a business set up to serve everyone.

  100. You don’t find these stories in the media and why not? with the amount of people here saying that their experience and reality has been that Universal Medicine are never and have never been ‘in it for the money’ why is it still hard to believe? Your account here Donna makes far more sense then anything the media have managed to make up because from experience, not imagined fiction but actual lived experience, I have not ever had a sense that there is a focus or push for money. Is this not reflected in the fact that there has never been any advertising of UM courses or workshops?

  101. It’s beautiful to hear about the level of care and support offered to you Donna – true community and the way a business should be run (for people not for profit)

  102. The level of love, care and dedication, the students and practitioners of Universal Medicine, is second to none. There is no false helping or being nice, it’s simply the way they live in love and truth and that then expands out into the level of integrity and care in the way they are with all others.

  103. So true “The Universal Medicine teachings are so simple, practical and down to earth – they are a parcel of Truth out there that, until Serge came along, no-one else has had the courage to present.” What an awesome testimonial to what Universal Medicine, the practitioners and the clinics offer and represent. Why aren’t journalists knocking on your door for a story? This is gold and it is great that you are sharing it.

  104. Wow! You could not read more definitive proof that Universal Medicine is not out for money. That level of support, offered without any ties or hidden agendas (even if that hidden agenda is just the satisfaction of doing ‘good’ in the world) is rare in the world today.

  105. Hear hear Donna, very well said. I visited the Brisbane clinic when I was in Australia on holiday and the practitioners are truly supportive. Thanks for a great blog sharing your experience of Universal Medicine.

  106. Donna, you have provided a beautiful, personal rebuttal to those who want to denigrate Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon. Thank you.

  107. Thank you Donna For sharing your very loving experience with Universal Medicine Brisbane at such a critical time in your life.

  108. The support you felt during your illness Donna is awesome, the way nothing was expected from you in return and without anyone imposing on you. This sounds like true brotherhood to me and hopefully will be normal for all of us in the not so distant future.

  109. Beautiful Donna. I was very touched reading Donna’s article as I could feel the deep appreciation she has for all the people that supported her at a very critical and challenging time in her life. It is wonderful that Donna has spoken up truth and I absolutely agree ‘This kind of support is truly rare and should be celebrated.’

  110. Thank you Donna for speaking up and sharing a true experience of the love and support offered by the Universal Medicine Brisbane Clinic.

  111. Thank you Donna for sharing your experience of Unimed Brisbane. Indeed to indicate that Unimed Brisbane is out for a profit is so far from the truth, it is clear whoever wrote that had no awareness or understanding of the truth behind it. The love for all that founded the building of Unimed Brisbane is deeply felt and exemplified by your experience Donna. It should indeed be celebrated, so very much so, that places like this exist in a world where profit and caring for the individual are still at the fore. Serge Benhayon and the teachings of Universal Medicine show there is indeed another way – a loving and tender way with all of humanity – that we can live. I celebrate every day that this Way is now my Way.

  112. Thank you Donna for sharing your first hand experience of the Universal Medicine Brisbane Clinic – imagine if everyone knew that this type of Universal Medicine was available for all if they chose, rather than the lies that the media have instead chosen to run with.

  113. I was very touched reading of your experience Donna, but not surprised, there is so much loving support available and freely given by those associated with Universal Medicine. I have experienced this also. This kind of support is quite rare in this day and age and needs to be celebrated and proclaimed from the roof tops, it is a way that encompasses all.

  114. Thank you Donna for expressing your story and stating so clearly from your own experience the truth. There is nothing that could counter your direct experience of the care and support you received.

  115. Hello Donna, you have written the real story so thank you. Why the media continues to bypass the facts that real people are receiving real care from anything and everything that is associated with Universal Medicine says a lot for where the media currently stand. How could anyone not see these remarkable stories? Donna you story is a heartwarming one and I can appreciate the love and care you received from Universal Medicine Brisbane during that time in your life. What you are writing goes against most things we see in society as a whole at this time. It is possibly no wonder the media don’t share these type of things because stories like yours would expose the media in the fact they are ‘reporting’ to look after themselves, nothing about genuine care and integrity. Thank you Donna for sharing the real things that are happening somewhat behind the scenes and the ‘real care and integrity’ that is there, you are showing how something should be reported.

  116. Donna, what an inspiring story, I’m so glad you have shared it here. It should however be printed in the Brisbane newspapers or even better the national newspapers, after all, its stories like yours which are the truth that need to be told about Universal Medicine, rather than the lies that have been printed.

  117. The care and support offered to adults facing life threatening illness is unheard of, Universal Medicne is at the fore front of this support for all

  118. This is a wonderful story. What would the world be like if inspirational stories like this were the norm in our popular media?

  119. In standing up for the truth you are very inspiring, you are so right ‘This kind of support is truly rare and should be celebrated.’ The level of support and care you have received with absolutely no expectations back is incredible and indeed very rare. But what a beautiful model and template for the rest of us, to put people first and make it about care and the quality of care received is possible. We have a lot to learn from what you have shared.

  120. Donna, my experience, although different in some ways to yours of course, has been the same concerning support through illness and free consults sometimes during treatments. I could not ask for more from any healing practitioner and always feel no matter what the problem is, it is treated as important to them to give full attention to. I cannot speak too highly of Serge Benhayon and the Universal Medicine Practitioners. Thank you all.

  121. I agree with you a 100% Bina, I have been attending Universal Medicine courses now for over eight years and not once have I heard or got a sense of anyone being grabby when it comes to dealing with money – in fact quite the opposite.
    What Universal Medicine demonstrate is the level of care and integrity that is possible when you care for yourself first and then naturally you are able to extend that to others. Thank you Donna for sharing your experience of Unimed Brisbane.

  122. I know any clinic associated with Universal Medicine is clearly NOT “out for profit’.
    The fact is they are totally the opposite. Universal Medicine is about PEOPLE BEFORE PROFIT. Is it any wonder that as an organisation it has gone from strength to strength and is truly successfull. I have used the template of Universal Medicine for my own business and made sure I put people before profits. I cannot imagine another way to conduct business with true integrity.
    Thank You Donna for sharing. What you write has deeply touched me because again you tell a story of how those associated with Universal Medicine genuinely take care of themselves and then help others like yourself.

    1. In today’s age putting people before profit in a business is not a common habit yet Universal Medicine has broken the mould and the growing clientele is obviously showing that this is a successful way to run a business.

  123. “My life is richer, more balanced and clearer than it’s ever been. I am a better person to be around and this has only deepened over the years.” Thank you Donna for sharing this, it is horrendous to think the media got it so wrong.

  124. It is a great comfort to know that places like the Brisbane clinic exist in a world where everything is about profit. Why is it that people have to lie and make up stories about such a great place?

  125. Thank you Donna for sharing how you were so deeply supported through such a difficult time in your life, and lovingly introduced to the parcel of truth that Serge Benhayon has dedicated himself to presenting.

  126. Thank you for sharing your experience Donna. The integrity and support on offer through Universal Medicine is unequalled. I feel that as this support is so unheard of, people are always looking for the catch, the ulterior motive. There is no catch, no ulterior motivation. It is simply feeling the truth of each situation and offering the support that you can. It also takes grace and self-love to accept the support that is offered.

  127. Yes, this is the Universal Medicine I know and trust. The sensationalist lies in the newspaper were just that. The stories run rang no truth to me whatsoever. What you have shared here is so much more factual, and so beautiful to know this kind of true support is out there for people. Quite amazing really.

    1. Yes. It’s True.
      I also experienced the amazing support of UniMed Brisbane during my stay there a few years ago. I recieved absolutely loving and unconditional support while recovering from Dental surgery. The lies printed about Universal Medicine are the furthest thing from the truth that you could imagine. Calculated lies designed to destroy people and their reputation do not belong in newspapers, nor in the minds and bodies of all who read them.

  128. Isn’t it amazing that genuine care for people and incredible kindness as expressed by Universal Medicine Practitioners can be turned into something ugly and demeaning? I suppose that care and kindness can’t be sensationalised by journalists, so making up untruths will sell papers for them.

    1. The irony is, that if one of those journalists was to fall ill, and experience the love and care offered by a Universal medicine practitioner, would, could, they print their story? there are so many vested interests exerting pressure and influence behind the scenes – now THAT would make a good story.

  129. That sounds like amazing support Donna, I think everyone reading this would be going ‘awwwww I so would love to have that!’ haha. It’s true, everyone wants to be looked after and cared for in a way that is deeply supportive and can assist with healing. This is not an unusual thing to occur within the Universal Medicine Student Body either, it’s very common – that’s a story that should be shared.

  130. That’s a serious diagnosis to receive Donna, and with the support of Unimed Brisbane and associated practitioners you received the support and care that you needed at a most difficult time. Suggesting that Universal Medicine is all about profit is ridiculous as there are many who have being sponsored, or cared for free of charge, as the situation presents itself. The level of integrity offered by all esoterically trained practitioners is a platform that would never be taken advantage of, but graciously accepted. I myself have received this support also.

  131. It must feel amazing to be able to express so clearly the truth about the Brisbane Universal Medicine clinic, and to be able to challenge those articles with such authority. Well done Donna, your integrity and clarity shine through in this heart-felt blog.

  132. Your story Donna is one I would much rather read about in the local newspaper than any false cult accusations. I would be reading an article about a mother who is utterly supported from Universal Medicine and any one associated. I would read about how the Esoteric Modalities are not their to cure you but to give you support in what is going on for your body and my whole body would be in shock as I would of never read anything like this.

    1. Well said Madeline…I would much rather read this as well. As that would be the truth and seriously, that is what should be reported. But many do not have the courage to be open to the truth, let alone report it. I love what Donna wrote about the teachings of Universal Medicine “they are a parcel of Truth out there that, until Serge came along, no-one else has had the courage to present”. Each day my life is blessed because Serge Benhayon has the courage to present it, and then the student body has the courage to be open to it, and to start to live it.

      1. One day a health magazine will print an article about Universal Medicine that tells the truth. The truth about the level of care and support. The truth that puts people before profit. The truth that as a body of practitioners, Universal Medicine does not, can not cure, but supports those brave enough to take responsibility for their own recovery and future well being. And it will be like a breath of fresh air blowing through the health industry that shatters the old paradigms.

    2. I agree Madeleine, this is the sort of story that should be published rather than the headline grabbing, unsubstantiated stories that are printed. Donna’s story tells of some amazing people who are not in for themselves but to help humanity in any way that they can and stories like this one need to be on the front page so that others will know there are people like this in the world.

  133. ‘Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have inspired me to look after myself first, and in doing so I have rediscovered a love within myself that I thought was ‘out there’. Yes, Donna, how can people possibly say that this is a cult that tells people what to do! – it’s just the opposite. Serge Benhayon inspires people to take full responsibility and commit to life, and there are many like you who have been supported in time of need by people involved with Universal Medicine.

  134. I simply agree with you Donna. Universal Medicine is giving opportunity to get inspired to start a self-loving life – to start to deeply care for ourselves as women. That is to appreciate!! It might be just too scary to people on the outside that it is all given by free will, without any service in return. And that there’s a responsibility for humanity included in the way of living. Without any profit. That seems hard to understand for some people, who obviously can’t get out of the consciousness of the performance society.

  135. When I hear of the media writing such throw away lines as this to hook the public into buying their papers I wonder isn’t it they, the fingers pointers who are purely out for profit? Where is the duty of care to their readership to investigate rather than accuse? A great way to earn a quick buck, feed off the short lived drama and then do it all over again. Many people do see through all this. The ones who have had direct experience or know those somekne who have been under the care of practitioners and staff at the Universal Medicine Clinics know full well this the the real deal in wholistic health care. The tender loving care I have received at both clinics has been exemplary and as we have already seen, award winning!

  136. Thank you Donna, it is so amazing to read about the support and love you and your daughter received from Universal Medicine during your time of recovery. ‘This kind of support is truly rare and should be celebrated.’ I agree, it is truly remarkable and it is with deep appreciation that we all have access to this kind of love and support. The doors are always open at Universal Medicine and they are here for everybody not just the selected few. Incredible and inspiring.

  137. So beautiful to hear you share this as your experience with Universal Medicine – it is such articles that help people hear and see about all the amazing things that Universal Medicine and its practitioners are all about – giving back to the world the love and care that we all so ‘deserve’ – what I mean by this is that we are all worth so much more than how most of us in society currently live. Universal Medicine plays a part in reminding us all that we have the choice to turn around our lives, and be there for ourselves as well as all the people around us.

  138. How great to have testimonials like yours, Donna. People will get to know the Truth about Universal Medicine, because it is a lived Truth, undeniable and so well expressed by you.

  139. I have known you for years, Donna, but I did not know that you had suffered from a brain tumour. How fortunate you were to be invited to live at UniMed Brisbane and your daughter also, and to have that wonderful love and support at such a difficult time. It is an example of what we all know and feel, that there is an abundance of love and support available to us – from Serge Benhayon, the Practitioners and all the members of Universal Medicine whenever we need it.

  140. Great blog Donna, it is indeed rare in our current society that we take care for each other in our communities and therefore when it is found we must celebrate it. We cannot allow certain forces in society to bring this kind of good into discredit since that is just pure evil that is not willing to accept that living this love among each other is where we have to go to as a society. The love presented by Unimed will give us all the answers to life we are currently facing in our modern society.

  141. Re-reading these words, Donna, has again brought feelings of deep appreciation for the practitioners at Universal Medicine, Brisbane. I too, have been supported, treatments given lovingly, with no expectations, when I needed them. At the time I was recovering from illness and major surgery. The care shown and the way in which each session was given and the healing I experienced, helped in my recovery. It is a sad fact that people write lies without bothering to find out what the truth is, even when so many of us are writing to the contrary. What about telling all these wonderful stories? But maybe this would show up exactly how unloving and disregarding the journalists are in their own lives.

  142. Thanks for sharing , Donna .i look forward to visiting the clinic for an esoteric healing or Esoteric chakra puncture session in the near future.

  143. Your experience would have made such a bettee story than the false lies that were sadly presented. In a time when illness and disease is sky rocketing your story could have assisted and inspired so many people.

  144. Thank you Donna. As you say the ongoing support that is available now to humanity through what Universal Medicine presents, and though the practitioners who live the essence of what Universal Medicine presents, is outstanding in our society. And it is the consistency and integrity of these practitioners and Serge Benhayon that really should be honoured continually by reports such as yours Donna. That such ongoing integrity is sustained year after year is a miracle in itself, but that it is not presented with any fanfare, and that it is just ordinary people living extraordinary ordinary lives, and we all benefit from this.

  145. It really seems that the papers are writing the exact opposite of the truth, meaning they may not be just making a mistake. I wonder why?

  146. Donna I loved reading about your experience with the Universal Medicine clinic. I have been a client of this clinic for the last 4 plus years and found the care I receive second to none. As you shared the practitioners working there are not about profits they are about people.

  147. Donna the support that you received sounds extraordinary and yet that level of loving care will one day be the norm for the whole of our society. The way that you were held and supported to be your true loving self by people who in turn were full of themselves through their own self care. We have such a loving future ahead of us after being in upheaval for so long.

  148. It is felt that on a world-wide scale Universal Medicine belongs to the most caring, loving, forever-giving-back-to-society businesses. My body rejoices whilst I read about yet another level of care that Universal Medicine provides. Thanks Donna.

  149. Donna what a beautiful story. It is incredible what UniMed Brisbane has offered you and your daughter, and many others this service. I don’t know of anywhere else in the world where this level of care, support and love is offered!

  150. Thank you Donna for sharing the incredible support provided to you by Universal Medicine Brisbane. Awesome to read.

  151. What came up for me when reading this bog, other than yes, what an amazing supportive environment Universal Medicine Brisbane must have been for you Donna, is why are people so antagonised by a truly nurturing and caring environment and support system? What is it that they find so threatening? Are their lives so destitute of nurturing and care, that it just brings up a detestable feeling of rejection for them? So that, if they read or investigate a story which is extraordinary, they immediately need to place bias on it that something must be wrong and if there’s not – oh just make it up . Very sad and cynical.

  152. This truly is a good news story Donna and one which the media should be telling instead of the totally made up version. I have experienced and witnessed this loving support throughout the Universal Medicine community. This is unique in the world to receive support with no expectation of re-payment, just people offering love where it is needed.

  153. Thanks so much for sharing. Where else could a person receive such tender loving care and support? Its great to know places like that actually exist.

  154. How truly wonderful for you to experience in one of your greatest times of need, Donna and what a treasured experience and great way to get started on your journey of self nurturing. To live with that example all around you AND with your precious daughter for the time you did.

  155. Dear Donna, you are a living, breathing and beautiful testament to the undeniable truth that is Universal Medicine.

  156. Thank you Donna for expressing about your experience with the Universal Medicine Clinic in Brisbane. This story should be in the newspapers not the lies.

  157. Donna what’s great is that the reports are clearly not only not your experience but also that of thousands of other people. I most certainly agree with your experience, when you know and can feel the great support provided it’s most certainly upsetting to see lies that try to tear it down.

  158. Thank-you for sharing your story Donna, undoubtedly one of very very many stories of such deep levels of support offered by UniMed Brisbane, Universal Medicine, and countless practitioner of esoteric modalities.
    Your story puts the likes of Josh Robertson (‘journalist’) to shame, plain and simple – such irresponsible reporting should never be titled ‘journalism’. It is a scourge upon those who bring true integrity to their profession.

    1. Hear hear Victoria – I agree! Donna’s experience would be an amazing piece in a newspaper article – rather than the lies and one-sided twisted opinions that have been getting printed about Universal Medicine.

  159. Donna, i am moved to tears once again as I read your blog, it is deeply profound what Universal Medicine offers to every one in the way of true healing, true love and true self care. Thank you for sharing your story as it is one of many that the press choose to ignore in favour of the lies told by a few so they can paint there own distorted immoral agenda.

  160. I agree Donna that the Universal Medicine teachings are simple, practical and down to earth. I find what they have to say just makes sense.
    Being responsible and making sensible lifestyle changes has led me to maintain a natural body weight for over 6 years now and my vitality levels have increased. I no longer feel exhausted or have to rely on stimulants to keep going.
    In 2010 I visited the Universal Medicine clinic and when I was in waiting room, I felt that if heaven was actually on this earth, it would feel like this. I was stunned to say the least at the exquisite stillness and yet there were lots of practitioners and people around. I felt safe and looked after and that was Before the actual session.

  161. Donna, your story is both fact and testament to the high integrity that the Universal Medicine Brisbane clinic is about. The thing is, there are hundreds of other people who also have a very similar story to yours… that they have received nothing but love and support from the practitioners at this clinic. The journalists making the false allegations in the media where only interested in sensationalism and trying to crack a great story for their career portfolio… they clearly left the truth however back at reporter school.

  162. Thanks Donna for really showing how the Universal Medicine community operates and that it isn’t out for profit but only out to support people!I too have been support by the business, Universal Medicine, and the people in the community which totally contradicts the lies that have been told about getting every penny out of anyone who attends.

  163. You tell it like it is Donna, simple, practical, and down to earth. As for the Newspaper, the support you got from Universal Medicine, that’s a real good story that should be reported on. Thank you for sharing it here.

    1. I agree Bernie. Why is it that a story like Donna’s or the many others from all over the world are not reported on? Why is is that the media seem intent on making up stories about Serge Benhayon and universal Medicine to report? I know the truth was offered to this particular reporter so why was it not reported? Many interesting questions that the media are unwilling to answer.

  164. Amazing for you to feel supported on so many levels through a time of such physical trauma. True support and true healing. I feel as a student of the Livingness and Universal Medicine, that I am held in love and I so appreciate the changes in my life that I feel happening consistently because of this love.

  165. That is amazing Donna, it is incredible to hear just how much support has been offered to you and to anyone in the community needing support. This is true philanthropy.

  166. Dear Donna, Thank you for openly sharing your experience of Universal Medicine and it’s practitioners and Serge Benhayon. I have found my experience to be just as ethical and life changing. Hearing one ill intended remark instantly alerted me of ill intending people. At best misunderstood interpretations. I was having a conversation with a family member this morning “where would we be without this experience of universal medicine, Serge and his living example.” Thank you Donna.

  167. I absolutely agree with you Donna that Unimed Brisbane and Universal Medicine are amazing businesses that truly care about their clients holistically. I love your line, “The Universal Medicine teachings are so simple, practical and down to earth”. I think sometimes we can be shocked and even feel cheated when the answers to our ills are practical and simple. We look for the catch and we can often feel that we are being hoodwinked as it can’t possibly be that simple to change your life, can it!? Well, spoiler alert………it is. I have implemented the very practical and simple techniques presented by Universal Medicine into my life slowly over the past 2.5 years and I have had more changes to my health, relationships and joy for life generally during this time than in any other time in my life – and that includes a period where I was on antidepressants under the supervision and care of a team of doctors, counsellors and psychologists. All of these positive changes came by introducing self loving ways and a gentler way of being with myself and others. No catch, no tricks. Simple.

    1. Well said Megan. I love what you share here about the example of self-care being the answer that can bring about true change in our lives. In my experience, this is often something many of us either consciously or unconsciously avoid due to wanting to avoid taking responsibility for our choices. The interesting thing is that this is the key to true change, and again in my own experience, when I began accepting responsibility for my choices, it was much easier and simpler than I had thought possible, and it made me consider why I had avoided this for so long in the first place.

      1. Absolutely Angela I am amazed how long I avoided taking responsibility for my choices and how implementing self-care has turned my life around. It is so beautiful that Donna had the care and dedication of the practitioners at UniMed Brisbane and could also observe how they cared for themselves and be inspired by that.

  168. This is a beautiful story that highlights to me the heart of Universal Medicine – love and care.

  169. What you have described here Donna felt so loving and nurturing because it is what we know deep inside is ‘the way’ that life is meant to be. Simple and oh how we have digressed. It is Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine that is pointing the compass back in the right direction so all of humanity can get their true bearings again.

  170. Beautiful to see that there are people like this in the world. Your experience is gold, and no one can say anything that changes the love, support, growth and care you have received. It is when one is ill that one appreciates even more those great opportunities to evolve and heal.

  171. Universal medicine is so beautiful , I am so great-full to be a forever student of the livingness.

  172. Such a beautiful testimonial Donna on what Universal Medicine is about : true and loving service to Humanity with no agenda. Your story has the potential to help the newspapers you are mentioning to see clearly what Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are about. Thank you for speaking up.

  173. Thank you Donna for sharing what Universal Medicine has so naturally done for you and many others.
    “The Universal Medicine teachings are so simple, practical and down to earth“.
    This statement should be front-page news around the world. The way that the press has told the story about Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon is abhorrent. Thanks to students like Donna for presenting the truth for all to see. When I connect to and feel your words, the truth of those words brings a greater understanding for me to appreciate what we all have as students of Universal Medicine.

    1. Absolutely Greg, and the simple choice to feel the enormity of what Universal Medicine has done for me and thousands of others is an amazing part of appreciating oneself and others.

  174. Thanks for sharing the support and healing you received at Universal Medicine Brisbane and I totally agree… the warmth and true respect I’ve received and felt from the Practitioners there, is like no other. And as you shared – “The practitioners that helped me in my recovery were just like me, living normal lives and responding to what they felt was true for them…”, was what stood out for me, real, practical and honest!

  175. I totally agree, Donna – my life has changed since meeting Serge Benhayon and coming across Universal Medicine and their dedication to self-responsibility, care and healing is second to none.

  176. It is amazing that we all can share our lived experiences and how beautiful that if we commit to living more lovingly we can inspire and stay open to learn from others. This is truly supportive and a wonderful learning for all of humanity.

  177. Donna, it is so true what you say about Universal Medicine and many of its students, this includes Unimed Brisbane, that they give back to society or the communities that they live in. The love and support you were given during a trying time in your life is simply extrodinary. It is this selfless, loving way as presented by Universal Medicine and chosen to be lived by many that has caused a small few to react and mislead the media to report what is not true about Universal Medicine.

  178. I so whole-heartedly agree with you, Donna. I had a very similar experience: I needed support and received it in full from Serge and Universal Medicine without any expectation whatsoever and with the deepest care and love. The allegations coming from the newspapers are sheer lies. The TRUTH is in our own personal experiences with Universal Medicine and in our bodies where there is more love and care than ever before.

  179. Beautiful Donna. Feeling a joy and tenderness to be able to experience the Goonellabah Clinic on my first trip to Australia!

  180. I agree Donna. I visit UniMed Brisbane Clinic whenever I am in Brisbane and have the opportunity. Your comment ‘My life is richer, more balanced and clearer than it’s ever been.’ sums up my experience from the dedication, care, love and support I have had from my practitioner there.

  181. Abolutely beautifull to read your blog- I can feel the warmth and loving caring from the UniMed Brisbane Clinic through your words. How healing and life-changing!
    This is how I experience Serge Benhayon, his family and Universal Medicine too.
    Yes THIS would be a great article in the newspapers !!

  182. Thank you Donna for exposing what goes on behind the doors at UniMed Brisbane. Unlike the media portrayal what you have shared shows the deep care and commitment that the practitioners at UniMed Brisbane live on a daily basis. To invite you into their home and support you through a difficult time with your health is beyond generous and a testament to the work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

  183. This is one of so many examples of how the Press are literally telling lies – concocting stories which are literally the direct opposite to the truth about Universal Medicine. And great to have another one of these exposed, Donna, by and from your own lived experience.

    The press talks about Universal Medicine practitioners as if they are cold, calculated, abusers of people and manipulators of their finances: whereas the truth, and known through MY lived experience, is that they are the most hard-working, gentle, diligent, genuinely caring, philanthropic and people-loving individuals you could imagine. If you meet these people, it is really very, VERY difficult to miss this.

    And which is why I would always beseech anyone and everyone to meet such individuals in person, before settling for the second-hand garbage that is peddled about them in the media.

  184. I used to live in Brisbane and Universal Medicine Brisbane is the one place that I can whole-heartedly recommend to family and friends to visit if they are looking for practitioners to support them in their health and healing.

  185. I could really feel the love and support you received from the The Universal Medicine Practitioners at the Brisbane Clinic and how this support significantly impacted your well being and that of your daughters and your recovery. As Fiona shared it is unheard of to find an organisation that takes both mother and child in to care for them fully without wanting any thing in return. Your blog, or rather your inspiring story shows the truth and the foundation of what Universal Medicine is about: they make it about people first. For 4 years now I have been attending Universal Medicine courses and presentations and this has Always been my experience as well as the thousands of people who attend, and that is why I, and the thousands keep going back…..

  186. Donna, reading your story blows me away, the support you found from Universal Medicine has been phenomenal. It is unheard of to find an organisation that takes both mother and child in to care for them in whatever capacity is required without wanting anything in return is too big for most to understand. Why this is not a double page spread in a news paper is beyond me.

  187. What an amazing testament of the truth at the heart of Universal Medicine and one that the media should be picking up to share with the world. This is a true story of support offered for humanity with no expectation of something in return. This is the truth of Universal Medicine.

  188. Thank you Donna and as I re-read your deeply real and inspiring post I just realised that when I was diagnosed with a tumour in 2008 and had major surgery, I was given the utmost care and support that I needed from Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. At the time things were so bad, my husband stopped working to take care of me and that left us financially in a mess. What Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine has supported us with since that time is too huge for words.
    As you say Donna and I agree – ‘I have NEVER felt so supported in my entire life’
    What has been incredible for me is to receive true help for the first time with no agenda, no reminder or anything. I never thought that a man like Serge Benhayon and an organisation like Universal Medicine existed. I am blown away by their generosity to consistently support others and they always make it about people and not profit.
    It comes as no surprise that Universal Medicine is very successful as a business and a role model of how all businesses can choose to operate.
    The media have a great story ready with plenty of evidence from people like you and me.

  189. Very inspiring Donna, thank you. Its so joyful to read of your experience at the Brisbane Universal Medicine Clinic. It makes you wonder about the motives of people when they can so easily lie about an organisation that does nothing but promote the well-being of others. These ‘parcels of Truth’ that Serge Benhayon presents are just that…Truths, and unfortunately, there are some who obviously don’t like the TRUTH.

  190. This is an amazing account of true love and support, the sad thing is that the newspapers are not interested in putting this on the front pages of their papers, this doesn’t cut it as a scoop. But it so easily could be, one day it will be! Glad that your feeling so well and clear in your life now.

    1. I agree Vanessa that the newspapers are not interested in true stories like this but one day they will be. The tides are turning and more and more people like all those writing on this site are the reason why front pages and media headlines will be about what the people want which is Truth. Putting people before profit is the only way forward if we as a world are going to evolve.

  191. Thank you so much for sharing this Donna. Serge and Universal Medicine are setting an unprecedented way to live in modern day life. Who else are teaching and living in a way that inspires true self love wellbeing and health. Not to mention love for all equally, no exceptions.

  192. Thank you Donna for a great testament of what Universal Medicine is about : absolute love and care for humanity with no hidden agenda.

  193. This is amazing what you have shared Donna. A little gem amongst all the blogs! What I feel when I read it is the love of yourself now and all that you received whilst being supported at the Brisbane Clinic. A story worth sharing with many-thank you!

  194. I feel very moved by what you have written here Donna, and I know without a hint of any doubt that it is true. It is as though I have been washed of the lies and ugliness that have been written about Universal Medicine, which somehow can leave me feeling tainted even if I just read a quote or two, and I hope that many people get the blessing of reading the truth you have written about the love you were shown.

  195. Your experience of the loving support you received from Serge Benhayon and the students of Universal Medicine at a time when you were so ill is a living testament to the fact that profit is not the intention. Where else would you find that? And it is not just when we are ill, it is there all the time because it is being truly lived everyday and with no intention either of “being seen to do good”, but just what is needed responded to in Love.

  196. As I read your article Donna, I was reflecting on how your words would be quoted if the Brisbane clinic was ‘out for profit’ as the newspaper erroneously printed. Instead of promotional material with what clients say headlines, everyone just goes quietly and gently on, being who they are, loving and caring in a way that doesn’t expect a payback.

    Truly inspiring

  197. This is an absolute testament on how Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon are with us all, no one is treated differently which is deeply felt. I have always and still do feel a coming home whenever I am with Serge Benhayon or in the Universal Medicine clinic which is something truly special.

  198. Thank you Donna, it was lovely to read of your’s and your daughter’s experience of the love and support shown to you by the Universal Medicine Practitioners and the Brisbane Clinic.

  199. Thank you Donna, this is a great example of the love, care and support that is inherent in Universal medicine and the Universal Medicine Practitioners at the Brisbane Clinic. Thank you for sharing how you and your daughter were both given this level of care and without any expectation of reimbursement. This counters completely the ‘out for profit’ allegations from a Brisbane newspaper. In the time I have known Serge Benhayon (nearly 10 years) and Universal Medicine (since it’s inception) I have never felt there was any such focus on material gain. And I have certainly never heard spoken any claims that Esoteric Breast Massage cures breast cancer.

  200. Hi Donna, I whole heartedly agree with what you say “This kind of support is truly rare and should be celebrated.” I have never received such care, support, integrity and love as I have from Serge Benhayon and all Universal Medicine practitioners, and as you say it is all from their own choices they are individually making in how they want to live and treat others. It has been and still is enormously inspiring in how we actually can live a different way instead of feeling we ‘have to’ live/struggle a certain way because of what we see in society around us. Thank you for sharing your experience.

  201. Thank you Donna for sharing this story of the love that was shared with you – living love; for sharing the truth about Universal Medicine clinics and the service they offer.

  202. Thank you Donna for sharing your story of truth and experience of Universal Medicine and the Brisbane Clinic. Serge Benhayon has brought to the world the real way of love and true integrity and this truth needs to be shared for the world with the media honestly.
    A beautiful account of your experiences and life .

  203. Thank you Donna for your own “parcel of truth” It is indeed rare for an organisation to provide care such as this without financial gain and moreover, astonishing that this is not picked up by the media. A real true story to report on.

  204. Now this is the story that needs to be told in many different newspapers all over the world because IT IS TRUE, inspirational and offers a healing to all that read it. Thank you Donna for your beauty-full sharing.

  205. Thank you Donna, it’s great to read a true life report about the activity of Universal Medicine Brisbane – the integrity with which the practitioners live and work there is apparent.

  206. Absolutely amazing to read this Donna. A parcel of truth that no-one else has had the courage to present. That really sums up Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

    I salute you for speaking your Truth in public on this blog with all your credentials so there really is no hiding. We need more people like you Donna Harris. You inspire me enough to share this blog with those I know who are ready to read a true story.

  207. Your (true) story and your experience of Universal Medicine Brisbane is deeply moving and inspiring Donna.

    I recently heard somebody say: Sometimes courage skips a generation or two… It seems to me too that ‘until Serge came along, no-one else has had the courage to present’ what is so desperately needed. And for that I too thank Serge and the UniMed team every day in my heart.

  208. Donna you should also be celebrated for being able to accept so much love and support into your life. Thank you for sharing this story as it demonstrates perfectly Universal Medicine’s dedication, commitment and love of people.

  209. Thank you Donna for sharing your story – the kind of story that we seldom hear about because the practitioners aren’t talking about it. They aren’t talking about it because they respect the client’s privacy, true. But the other is because they don’t need anyone to know they are doing this, they don’t need to brag about it, they don’t need anyone to know that they are giving generously beyond treatment of the physical body. This is just what happens when one is in service, as are the UniMed practitioners.

    1. Very true Gayle, when one is in service to humanity miracles happen and this is not extraordinary but very normal and ordinary. There is no need for publicity.

  210. Thank you Donna for sharing your experience at the Brisbane Clinic. Your honesty shows the deep level of non-imposing care offered by the practitioners there and clearly shows the high level of integrity they have which does not allow profit to get in the way of true care.

  211. Donna I can stand next to you in agreeance when you share the level of unconditional love and support you have received from Universal Medicine as I have also been the beneficiary of this level of support, and I am appalled that such lies can be written about an organisation that offers this deep level of support, no other organisation in the world offers this.

  212. The support you and your daughter were given during your treatment for a brain tumour was awesome to read about, Donna. My mother had an inoperable brain tumour in the late 80’s and Mum and the family were left to our own devices to deal with whatever was going on, so I SO understand how much the support of UniMed Brisbane clinic practitioners meant to you.

    This so clearly shows the media reports bagging Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are abhorrent and so off the mark.

  213. Thanks Donna for sharing your story like you my life has truly been enriched through my participation with UniMed and the connection and healing I continue experience is unlike anything else I have known.

    1. I completely agree – this is an incredible story, and nothing short of what I have always felt to be true when it comes to people I have met and known through Universal Medicine.

      1. Yes I so agree, what a wonderful way to demonstrate true care.
        Just by going to the Universal Medicine Clinic at any time for any reason (errand etc.) is a delight.
