After being treated by Dr. Dane, not only did I feel unburdened of my sorrows, but something physical was happening to me.
I began to see the connections between anger and how it was manifesting itself physically. My spirits began to soar. Elizabeth is...a great humanitarian and doctor.

The Mixed Accelerator shares many of the characteristics of the other two Accelerator Meta-types, the Accelerator and Balanced Accelerator. The Mixed Accelerator´s unique difference is your ability to focus your dazzling intellect while still having easy access to your strong emotions. The typical Mixed Accelerator has a warm, winning personality. You are someone everyone likes to be around. Deeply compassionate, you can clearly analyze complex information or unusual problems, at home, at work, and with friends.
Your profession is extremely important to you. Your family and friends place a close second, making you definitely socially oriented. Since your life's work is exceptionally significant to you, this work must be rewarding and fulfilling. This is balanced by your wanting to do the "right thing," especially for others, and needing to feel safe: monetarily, physically, psychologically, and/or spiritually safe.
When torn between your head and your heart, your intellect usually wins out. Your emotions become stuffed down, especially anger. Remember, it's important that you give voice to your emotional side. Energy can't be destroyed, so "stuffed" emotions are guaranteed to rise again, triggering volcanic eruptions when you least expect them.
The most eloquent phrase that best describes the Mixed Accelerator is: "I think, I feel, and then I act - only if I'm sure!"

Mark was known as the "golden boy." Everyone loved to be around his warm, charismatic, happy personality. Always rooting for the underdog and with a talent for getting right to the root of problems, Mark entered the world of medicine. Compassionate and completely committed to his work, he became a highly specialized surgeon for burn victims, especially children. He eventually developed a unique treatment protocol for his patients, and ended up lecturing all over the United States and Europe. Mark's profession was his life and he especially valued his warm and intimate relationship with his patients. Mark always seemed to have enough energy, determination, and passion for his wife, Desiree, and their two children as well. Wanting only the best for his family, they lived in a beautiful home, and the boys had the best education. An avid tennis and golf player, Mark looked forward to his days off for games with Desiree and close friends. Better yet were the evenings at the theater, the opera or, especially, the ballet. It seemed that he had it all, at work and at home, and he knew he deserved every bit of it. Then Mark's life changed. He was invited to run a huge burn and reconstructive surgery department in a major hospital where his specialized burn procedure would be the official protocol format. Thrilled that his techniques were to be used as the gold standard at such a famous hospital, he threw himself completely into the venture. Mark grew in stature from a sought-after surgeon to a prominent organizer, manager, and businessman. Word of his successes spread, and within two years he was asked to open another large department in a hospital located just across the state line. Mark believed he had limitless energy and strength, so he took on the project. His reputation blossomed and his career was on fire--and so was his stress level. He started missing nights at home with Desiree, and the kids. He increasingly became a "no show" for weekend tennis games, and Desiree had to find friends for theater nights. Fast food on the run now replaced his usually health-conscious meals. Four to five hours of sleep replaced his usual eight. Martinis and wine now became a nightly habit to cope with the stress. He was irritable most of the time. No longer warm and smiling, he snapped at everyone, especially his co-workers. He was on a horrifying stress treadmill and couldn't get off. Desiree was devastated. Her life with Mark was no longer loving and fun; the boys were literally "fatherless." When Mark was home, the time was filled with stress, tension, yelling, and fighting. Mark complained constantly about how unhappy he was. He started losing weight; headaches were plaguing him; he ricocheted from bouts of great anxiety to the depths of depression, an experience totally foreign to him. Colds and bronchitis became a way of life; he started squabbling with his peers at work. The end came for Desiree when Mark landed in bed for five days with a high fever and flu, almost ending up in the hospital with pneumonia. She calmly demanded that he pull his life and health together or she and the children would be gone. Mark was not willing to lose his family, but neither was he willing to go into psychotherapy. So they negotiated. Mark agreed to see me as a first step in his healing, since Desiree was a client of mine. Mark soon realized that he had turned completely away from what he loved and championed the most, his patients and his family. It wasn't about healing anymore; it was about running a corporation, a world of business and politics - and he hated it. Mark finally learned to slow down, pace himself, and take it easy. Incorporating the Mixed Accelerator program into his life brought his physical and emotional health back into balance after only a few months. He stopped eating fast foods and drinking alcohol; he ate well, exercised, and finally got enough sleep. Desiree was thrilled. She had her husband back, the kids had their dad, and Mark had himself - happier and better than ever! |
Energetically, as a Mixed Accelerator you may always seem to be on the go. In reality, that energy usually comes only in short bursts, and long-term endurance is not your best suit. You can tire easily, and you definitely need the typical three-meals-per-day regimen to help your energy stabilize in a smooth and constant flow.
The Mixed Accelerator´s life is a very active one, especially since you tend to work under intense pressure. With this pace, along with your need for perfection and your persistence at reaching your sizeable goals, you can easily catapult into the Stress Response. You usually react to this stress with anxiety. However, because of your strong emotional nature and an inability to endure long periods of stress, you also can fall into depression if your stress continues unrelentingly.
Your strongest endocrine gland is your thyroid gland, the "master" gland of metabolism and energy. Your least effective gland tends to be the pituitary gland, the "master gland" of the whole endocrine system. The Mixed Accelerator´s thyroid gland works 24 hours a day. During the daytime, your thyroid gland helps supply you with energy. At night, its energy repairs and regenerates your body. Your best energetic time is early morning (anywhere from 7:00-10:00 AM and usually by 8:00 AM) to early afternoon, then again in the early evening. Your down time is normally in the afternoon, when your adrenals and the daytime-acting sympathetic nervous system begin to shut down. This gives way to your regenerative parasympathetic nervous system, arming it for its nighttime work. You fall asleep very easily, usually sleep through the night, and can require a considerable amount of sleep if your thyroid gland becomes slow - or hypo-active - due to stress. If your thyroid has become hyper-active from anxiety, you may tend toward restlessness or insomnia.
For Mixed Accelerators, an imbalance in your thyroid gland can trigger some huge food cravings and, depending on the power of your other glands, can have great influence over your weight. More simply, if your thyroid becomes hyper-active, or over-stimulated, you can easily lose a lot of weight. You may also have trouble keeping enough pounds on your beautiful body if your pituitary function is overactive. Or you may gain weight from that same hyper-active thyroid gland as a result of rising insulin levels caused by over-active adrenal glands.
But if your thyroid gland has become hypo-active (under-active), you'll start piling on excess pounds, especially in your stomach, hips, and thighs. Given these potential power struggles between glands, your under-active Mixed Accelerator body can vacillate between a small "apple" and a small "pear" shape. You need exercise to keep your thyroid gland working steadily. Fortunately, you do like to exercise - when you find the time.
Your least effective pituitary gland could give you difficulties with hormone irregularities, weight problems, or sluggishness if you get out of balance.

Chandra is the quintessential "golden girl." Tall, slender, slightly muscular, with lovely green-blue eyes and a great smile, she had a rich sensual style even though her corporate attire was somewhat masculine. She presented a smiling, "has it all," brilliant persona, both professionally and socially. Everyone enjoyed her candid humor and her compassion. People were motivated by her seemingly endless creative ideas and energies as she handled multiple accounts and direct reports as the "second-in-command" at a Manhattan marketing firm. Jason, her husband, was Chandra's great counterpart, and they loved their weekends together in their spacious home in the suburbs. A huge promotion for Jason had a profound effect on Chandra, more than she first realized. They had to relocate out of state and sell their wonderful home. For Chandra, this also meant leaving a senior position at the mid-sized Manhattan consulting firm for a less responsible role in a smaller, suburban company. In truth, the years in the whirlwind Big Apple consulting life, in a business that had, unfortunately, been run poorly by her then employer, had chipped away at her self-esteem and sapped all her physical and emotional energies. Desperately hoping that her new position would rebuild her confidence and prove more rewarding, Chandra dove into her new challenge with glee. An artist at heart, with wonderful painting and drawing skills that bridged fine art and graphic design, in her new position Chandra now had little involvement with art. Sadly, she didn't feel the same sense of accomplishment as she'd felt at the New York City firm. A monster fueled by disappointment, uncertainty, and dissatisfaction starting rising inside of her. Chandra stuffed down those emotions, too often alone at home as Jason worked crazy, lengthy hours in his new position. She craved the false emotional nurturing of sweet desserts and carbohydrate-rich comfort foods, such as breads and pastas. Chandra was happy only when she was eating meals that felt like events. And if she couldn't do it "right," she would do it totally wrong just to punish herself and stop those feelings of isolation. Sometimes she would binge on fast foods. Or she wouldn't eat at all during the day, opting to work straight through lunch. She'd find herself alone at home, wallowing in her loneliness, cold and fatigued from not eating right. When Chandra first came to me, she was so depressed and out of metabolic balance, she appeared almost shell-shocked. With dull hair, pale complexion, and very dry hands, her slender body suffered from a degree of lethargy that I knew just couldn't be her real self. True to her Mixed Accelerator Meta-type, Chandra brought with her a lengthy list of "complaints" that she thought I might be able to help her overcome. They ranged from digestive problems to periodic acne, from a lack of concentration and energy to the slightest fat gain on the outside of her hips and inner thighs. First, I had to get Chandra in balance physically. All the dramatic stress she had undergone had catapulted her all the way down to the Balanced Synthesizer Meta-type, even past the immediately to the left of her own Mixed Accelerator Meta-type. It was a huge shift indeed, and a challenge to bring her back to balance. Fortunately, once Chandra understood what her was all about, she tackled her program with the dedication and intensity typical of a Mixed Accelerator. She improved greatly after a summer of spiritual, emotional, and physically therapeutic work. Her deep transformation helped her regain her confidence in her professional and personal life. Chandra now owns her own small consulting company and enjoys a much closer and more expressive relationship with her husband of 10 years. She landed a delightful position on the Board of Directors for a charity whose work she cherishes, and has made great strides in better defining boundaries in her relationships with family and friends. Her art is expressed both in her own work and in her own selected personal endeavors. She designed a new home and home office, and she delights family and friends with special handmade gifts. Chandra has learned that she doesn't have to do it all to have it all, but it starts with having all the aspects of her own self in balance. |
Your Mixed Accelerator Meta-type indicates that you are a "semi-fast metabolizer" (your digestive system breaks down your foods somewhat quickly), but you are a "moderately slow oxidizer" (your body burns off your energy somewhat slowly), which gives your body a pH range at the midpoint of the acid/alkaline spectrum, slightly more to the acid side: "weak acid" (6.2).
| Strong Alkaline pH: 8 - 7.5 Synthesizer |
Alkaline Forming pH: 7.4 Balanced Synthesizer |
Weak Alkaline pH: 6.8 Mixed Synthesizer |
Weak Acid pH: 6.2 Mixed Accelerator |
Acid Forming pH: 5 Balanced Accelerator |
Strong Acid pH: 4.5 - 4 Accelerator |
This type of metabolism gives the Mixed Accelerator the ability to handle some of the faster-burning carbohydrates (which you burn off somewhat slowly), as well as protein in fish, fowl and, occasionally, meat. Therefore, you require a well-rounded omnivore food plan, leaning more to the semi-vegetarian side. You definitely enjoy food, especially dinner, and may sometimes eat to repress your unexpressed emotions - so be careful! You love your sugar and desserts, and your food cravings may also include starches (breads, pasta, grains, etc.).
The Stress Response can cause the Mixed Accelerator to swing out of type and into another . If you are anxious over a prolonged period of time, you may "jump" (energetically speaking) into the Balanced Accelerator Meta-type, just to the right of the Mixed Accelerator Meta-type on the pH chart above. Or, if you're exhausted and burned out, you may fall into the Mixed Synthesizer Meta-type, just to the left on the chart. If you think you may have swung out of your , read about the "Pendulum Effect".
The Mixed Accelerator loves warm, balmy, mild weather and environments - not too hot and definitely not too cold. Europe or the Mediterranean in the summer would be your dream locale.
When you think of the Mixed Accelerator Meta-type, think of people who are extremely smart and accomplished, almost the "all things to all people" prototype. Both male and female Mixed Accelerators are likely to achieve great things. Mixed Accelerator women usually do so while maintaining their independence and femininity. Some words that best describe the Mixed Accelerator are:
As a Mixed Accelerator, you are driven by the same intensity and intellect as the other two Accelerator Meta-types, stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system. Moreover, you're also strongly activated by the regenerative and more emotional parasympathetic nervous system. Staying balanced and centered between those two strong polarities can be challenging. If the intensity of the Accelerator Meta-type overcomes you, you may swing into the Balanced Accelerator Meta-type. With that kind of energetic power, you can easily go into hyper-drive, leading to anxiety and sometimes insomnia. This can also put more pressure on your least effective endocrine gland, the pituitary. Your chocolate, ice cream, and sugar cravings could lead to some pituitary dysfunctions. You'll also be very vulnerable to colds and flus. Your "power gland," the thyroid, could become dramatically unbalanced: if "hyper-active," it could lead to weight loss or even weight gain (as you learned above); if "hypo-active," you could experience weight gain, hair loss, fatigue, and irritability. Burning out over time, you could "crash" into the below you, the Mixed Synthesizer. Then, you could experience depression, sex gland irregularities (whether male or female), and volcanic emotional outbursts.
Knowing all about your Mixed Accelerator Meta-type will teach you what your body truly needs, in terms of food, exercise, and lifestyle, to sustain your pace and be true to yourself. You'll learn too that all your health issues deal not only with your body but also with your mind, emotions, intellect, heart, and spirit. Staying in balance within your Mixed Accelerator Meta-type will help you live a long, healthy, and fulfilling life using the skills and talents that are uniquely you.
