About Bela Friedman

Bela Friedman,
Recover Faster Surgery Coach

Bela Friedman

Certified Surgery Coach, Certified Life and Energy Coach, & Hypnotherapist

My inspiration to help others prepare for surgery was my own experience undergoing a total hip replacement. My “aha” moment came after reading Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster – a Guide to Body Mind Techniques by Peggy Huddleston. I followed the five-step mind-body program using visualization and healing statements among other empowering techniques. I not only felt peaceful and empowered before surgery, I used very little pain medication following surgery and recovered quickly. My surgeon and his staff were stunned at my quick recovery. I was so excited about my experience that I became certified in the Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster ™ program developed by Peggy Huddleston.

With this mind-body approach, I will guide you to enhance your healing as you prepare for any type of minor or major surgery or medical or dental procedure.
