Did you know that “It’s All YOU!” Here’s a excerpt from the latest newsletter:
I just returned from a weekend of EFT Training. I LOVE doing EFT, and I find group intensive tapping to be amazing. One of the things that becomes really obvious in training (and something I always say) is that we can only tap on ourselves! Yes, we can tap with a practitioner (and I recommend doing just that), and yes we can tap with a friend. But when it comes to our issues that seem to be “about” someone else, we can ONLY work on ourselves! For example, “my spouse won’t listen to me!” In a case like that, and in almost ALL cases, we can only tap on our own emotions about the situation. We can’t tap to “make my husband listen to me.”
Let me explain further. So your spouse doesn’t listen to you? When was the last time your spouse didn’t listen to you? How does that make you FEEL? Where do you feel it? How intense is that feeling (on the 0-10 scale)? Tap on THOSE things until your intensity is down to a 2 or lower. Then check in with your feelings about that same incident when your spouse didn’t listen to you. Test to see if you’ve tapped away all the emotional intensity. We are not erasing memories here, but rather, dissolving emotional intensity. Notice if anything new has come up – a new emotion, a new memory, a new thought. Write those down for later tapping.
Now think of another time when your spouse didn’t listen to you. A specific event. Use the same procedure to tap on THAT event. As you begin to clear away the emotional intensity around these events, you will likely notice that you are reminded of something from your past (often “it reminds me of my dad,” or “it reminds me of how my mother doesn’t listen to me!”). Now we’re getting to the root of the emotion! Continue Reading…
