      Relieving Pain, Not Reliving It

      With most forms of counselling or psychotherapy, we are expected to relive the turn of events that has led us to our present state. In EFT, when the energy system is re-balanced, emotional shifts occur rapidly. All the usual stages of emotional healing are visited – they are just accessed much quicker. Lasting results are achieved in minutes, rather than months or, in some cases, years of therapy, so you don’t have to relive all your former painful experiences!

      The therapy process should not be more traumatic than the original incident! Identifying the feelings or upsetting thoughts involved is all that is required in order to eliminate their negative effects. As soon as a feeling surfaces it is quickly neutralized. This technique does not teach you how to cope with your difficulty or to find strategies to manage your distress. It is designed to remove the emotional charge that keeps you locked into the problem. This makes healing through EFT gentle and relatively pain free.

      Healing the Emotions

      EFT can be applied to a broad spectrum of emotional difficulties, from niggling irritations through to fundamental core issues. The technique does not alter and it is exactly the same for all conditions. The process works as effectively for deep-seated suffering as it does for everyday problems, as was demonstrated in the case of Terry.

      terry’s story – parent issues ‘My father died 12 years ago, but I did not grieve or mourn. I felt no sorrow or loss because I felt I had lost my ‘real’ father some 18 years before. His passing was something that I accepted would happen one day and I attended the funeral only at the request of my mother. Since his death I had spoken of him less and less, because my memories of him were all negative. It gave me no pleasure to recall them. My mother recognized my anger so did not mention her husband, who she greatly missed.

      ‘In recent years I had questioned whether my feelings towards my father were misplaced. It wasn’t until finding out about EFT that the prospect of addressing these issues came to the fore. The session was quite emotional for me, as I struggled with the emotions surrounding this unloved – dare I say, hated – parent of mine. Then, suddenly, it was all over and I felt as if a weight had been lifted from me. My world seemed a little lighter and more loving than before. I felt sorry for the man who I had despised and hated. I wished I had shown more compassion when he was alive, especially towards the end of his life. For the first time in years I could speak about my father to my friends and especially my mother who, despite his shortcomings, loved him dearly. Her joy alone made the effort worthwhile, because knowing of my feelings, she had never spoken of him, although she had desperately wanted and needed to.’

      Lasting Relief

      The changes and transformations that occur through applying this technique are yours to keep! Once every aspect of the problem has been addressed, the results are often permanent. People report that their problems lose all intensity after only a few minutes of treatment. issues that have caused intense distress in the past, sometimes over long periods of time, pale into insignificance. Events in the future that would usually produce a high degree of stress become easy to negotiate.

      No matter how long-standing your suffering has been, clearing the energy system can release its effects. This is because emotions are timeless. All emotions are felt in the present, even when the event is yet to happen. Because of this, EFT can be applied to past memories that are still distressing, future events that produce anxiety and trepidation, as well as current emotional difficulties.

      The Simple Therapy

      EFT is extremely simple to learn and apply. This means that, as well as working with a therapist, it can be used effectively for self-help. Everyone can learn the basics in less than half an hour. It is an uncomplicated and straightforward approach that even children find simple to apply. Once learnt, the technique remains the same whatever the issue. Because of its very simplicity, the potency and potential of EFT is often underestimated.

      Sometimes our feelings derive from early childhood experiences, before we are able to communicate our needs. This can make it hard to pinpoint or verbalize the original cause of our pain. The source may also lie within the unconscious mind, beyond our conscious awareness. This can be very frustrating, as the reason behind our feelings can be elusive and difficult to explain. When using an energetic approach to healing, it is not essential to know where your feelings stem from, nor is it necessary to identify the incident that causes each emotion. The fact that they exist is enough to elicit a healing response.

      Rapid Healing

      If the energetic disruption caused by turbulent emotions is removed, change can be easy, swift and painless. Once the residue of emotional energy has been cleared, we are able to reach a quick resolution of our original problem. We find it hard to accept that deep inner healing can take place so rapidly. Believing that change takes a long time to come about and only occurs after a lot of blood, sweat and tears. Yet we make changes every day; as soon as we change our mind about something our reality soon follows. Changing can really be that simple. Once the emotional attachment to a problem is cleared, a solution can be quickly found and radical adjustments can take place.

      Quite often people feel that by rapidly losing an emotional response to a situation, they will automatically miss out on the lesson to be learnt. This is understandable, but if you have already experienced the emotions once, why do you want to again? EFT does not remove the ‘gold’ that exists within our emotional struggles. None of the ‘lessons’ or ‘realizations’ are lost during the process. Lessons continue to be learnt, insight into a problem is still gained and understanding is reached. The arrival is just quicker, more of an ‘Aha!’ experience than a drawn-out process.

      Expressing NOT Suppressing

      Unlike using medication, EFT does not seek to suppress unwanted emotional reactions, but to release and resolve them. This technique is not about denying, repressing or disassociating from your feelings. This would be unhealthy and only leads to the creation of more problems. Unexpressed emotions can vent themselves in other ways, producing physical health problems or deeper emotional problems, such as depression. Denied emotions find other ways to express themselves, as neuroses, anxiety or obsessions.

      To be emotionally healed of our past, it is necessary to access, assimilate and resolve our original emotional issues. Often, this process occurs naturally over time. However, some people find it impossible to overcome their anguish and, as a result, remain trapped in emotional pain. EFT enables true healing to take place, allowing a person to pass through all the vital healing stages.

      Holistic Healing

      The energy that circulates through us all is connected to every aspect of our being. Each time you apply EFT, not only do you rid yourself of problems, you also give your energy system a complete overhaul, improving your general health, happiness and well-being. Because EFT uses your own energy system to create changes, the treatment is tailor-made for you as an individual. What one person needs to accomplish from healing will differ from the next. Whatever you need to resolve will be stored in your energy system.

      In keeping with holistic principles, EFT focuses on the root cause of an emotional issue as well as the symptoms of distress. Frequently, it will uncover the deeper origins of fears, phobias and addictive cravings. Wendy’s case illustrates how the underlying reasons for a problem can be discovered through EFT.
