Confronting Life’s Problems
ОглавлениеThe application of this subtle energy therapy can be used in so many circumstances that it truly is a companion for life. The breadth of possibilities where EFT can help is demonstrated by Sue’s story.
Sue’s story – unhappiness ‘I stumbled across EFT at a point in my life when I felt that a lot of changes were needed in order for me to be happy. I kept finding myself falling in love with the wrong type of person and choosing totally inappropriate jobs. I got to the point of being bitter and resentful. I thought it must be everyone else’s fault – certainly not mine.
‘The angels must have had pity on me when I heard about EFT. After all, it was painless (no needles), did not take long (I had limited time being a working mother) and it did not cost the earth. It sounded too good to be true, but I felt that I had nothing to lose.
‘The first feeling that surfaced was anger – I did not feel comfortable with anger at the best of times. In fact, I was more afraid of other people’s anger than of my own. I followed the simple procedure that starts with the recognition of a negative emotion, tapping all the points and within two minutes it was all over. I didn’t know why, but when I tuned in again, I burst out laughing. The relief and release of tension was incredible. I became excited and confident and wanted to try it on lots of other things. I used it for simple things like headaches, stomach upsets, backache, PMT. I then went on to more complex issues like fear of deep water, fear of aggression, fear of rejection, being alone, not having enough money. Each time, there was an immediate effect – once, a pain in my shoulder that I had experienced for many years, literally shifted down along my arm and disappeared while tapping.
One aspect central to my original problem was the feeling that other people were responsible for my happiness, or the lack of it. EFT made it easy for me to see the connection between my early experiences and my adult choices. My experience of EFT has freed me of countless negative beliefs and emotions. I lead a different life now – one with very little fear. I am confident and face new challenges every day. I can finally look for the things that I want to be doing, instead of staying in situations because of fear. If fear comes up or I feel unable to cope, I have a quick session of EFT.’
