Transforming Lives with EFT

The most interesting thing about facilitating healing sessions, is that you never know what direction it is is going to go. 9 times out of 10; when someone comes to me and says “I think it’s because of this” they aren’t aware of  the real root cause of their problem. They’ll say something like “I think I am overeating because of stress at work” then we “Resource”* (see explanation below) the issue and it and it REALLY started when they were 5 and their mother yelled at them for something. Or we find it is because they were abused on one or more occasions, etc. While it may be true that their current situation is triggering their habit or feelings; that is usually not the moment that the habit or feeling was CREATED.

Another aspect of the healing process is that most people, when faced with emotions that feel hurtful or uncomfortable to them, subconsciously make up a story about themselves. For example, a child whose mother yelled at them for reasons they didn’t understand when they were five is likely to make up a story about their self. Usually these stories take on some version of “I’m not worthy” or “I’m not good enough”. Then, every situation in life becomes an opportunity to expand on and reinforce this belief. Think of it as a table, and each situation that reinforces the belief becomes another leg holding up the table. If you can agree that we reap what we internally believe about ourselves and about life, than you can agree that it can be very limiting to be having these beliefs swimming around under the surface in our subconscious mind. And it has been said that at least 80% of who we are and what we manifest is directed by our subconscious mind.

The beauty of EFT (stands for “Emotional Freedom Technique) is that once trace down these “root causes” in the subconscious mind, we can eliminate the disruption in the body’s energy field (all negative emotions cause a disruption in the body’s energy field) that were created when the original event happened. We can also go in and knock down “table legs” that are holding up the belief that is holding them back. In its place, we instill new positive, affirmative beliefs that are more reflective of the truth and desires of the individual. The results are usually nothing short of miraculous, which is why I am so excited to be an EFT practitioner.

 

As for the results of my current workshop; two members showed up on the first day. One has stuck around, and lost 8-9 lbs since the first class. We have focused 90% on healing root causes. In her own words “I’m not trying very hard, I just don’t have the desire to eat as much anymore”.  In May, two more members will be joining her for the last session
