Dr Weekes is no longer alive but her legacy is still considered as relevant as it was when she was alive. All of her work was based on 3 principles: her own experience as a sufferer of anxiety, her outstanding scientific knowledge and her observation of her own patients. Her emphasis was on showing people how to heal themselves and she never tried to claim that she had cured them. It was her belief that nervous disorders occur when people are kept in a state of extreme sensitization for an extended period of time. Sometimes the condition is brought about by an event and sometimes it occurs bit by bit, especially if the sufferer is forced to live with unpleasant circumstances. Her techniques are designed to teach people how to get control over their state of mind.What’s more, Dr Weekes provides ways to manage and cope with the feelings of fear and dread that are commonly felt. Finally, she helps people to understand their physical symptoms and how they relate to their mental state.
