Featured Article #1: Singing teacher sings EFT's praises:  Andrea Fultz is a full time singing teacher in Germany who marvels at EFT's ability to help her students. She says, "As a full time singing teacher I am astounded about the results I get by combining voice exercises with EFT. It works great!" In this article she gives a detailed example of how she used EFT with an unusual voice problem. Email Andrea

Featured Article #2: A Carpal Tunnel "one minute wonder":  Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is usually treated with everything from wrist braces to surgery. With EFT, however, it often vanishes in short order using nothing but a few taps. Carole Gledhill from England validates this by sharing this case wherein her client went from extreme pain down to nothing with one round of tapping. Note that she handles an important emotional issue first. Email Carole

Featured Article #3: Using EFT to relieve a cold sore (Herpes HSV-1):  Millions of people get those pesky cold sores that show up on the lips and take up to 2 weeks to heal. In most cases these outbreaks are due to oral Herpes, or HSV-1 and, up until now, there is very little that can be done about them. Margaret Boyer, however, discovered that persistent EFT dramatically improved the healing time to 3 days. Email Margaret

Featured Article #4: Using EFT for mother issues:  Carna Zacharias-Miller specializes in emotional problems emanating from "mother issues." In this article she describes her methods for helping a client become much more comfortable with herself. Note that severe acne was one of the client's physical symptoms and, while that problem has not subsided (yet), she is far more comfortable about her appearance. Carna's new eBook "The Missing Mother Handbook - How to heal childhood abandonment and rejection using EFT" is now available with audio recordings (14 tap along EFT protocols). Email Carna and Visit her website

Featured Article #5: Using the Movie Technique in client’s first language helps shift freeway driving issue:  Virginia McConnell was getting nowhere while using EFT for her client's specific driving event. Then she realized that the client only spoke Spanish at that time. By having the client speak in Spanish during the EFT session, the issue became greatly reduced. This is an interesting doorway that you might find useful with some clients. Email Virginia

Tips from the EFT Website

• Improving intimate moments with EFT: Ahhh, intimacy! It's on almost everyone's list of things to do and just about anything to improve it is usually welcome. Dr. Fred Feldstein illustrates this valuable EFT feature for us.
• How to transform disappointment into gratitude: How many times have you had disappointment or a negative attitude about something about which you could do nothing? While we might like the world to change to match our desires, the reality is that changing ourselves (and our responses) is much more practical. JoAnn Skywatcher's article gives us an example of how to do this.
• The benefits of describing EFT as a relaxation technique: Because EFT appears "different" to newcomers, it can be beneficial to call it "a relaxation technique." Why? Because it can better fit with their beliefs. Steve DeSanto provides some useful examples of this approach with cases involving a potential emotional breakdown and pain.
• Expert gives us an inside look at Group EFT: I'm a big fan of doing EFT in groups and so I was particularly pleased when Baerbel Froehlin chose to share her Group EFT experiences with us. She covers (1) the diverse number of issues that show up in these groups and (2) how to successfully handle them.
• Success with infertility issues and "The Fear of the Fear." : Many thanks to Alina Frank who unravels a complicated infertility issue and discovers that her client's fear of vomit was likely a contributing factor. Along the way, she address the "fear of the fear," a common reaction of those overcoming phobias with EFT. This term refers to the fact that the client may be over the fear but they won't know it until they are faced with the real life situation. In the meantime, they are afraid that they will still have the fear response.
• Using NLP to Chunk Down for specifics in an EFT session: I often emphasize the importance of applying EFT to specifics. This is because the more specific we narrow down the issues, the greater our chances for success. NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) provides many tools for this and NLP expert Don Blackerby shares them with us in this article.
• A clever method for finding core issues: Timothy Hayes offers this very useful idea for getting to the real issues that are bothering clients. While he aims his technique at our responses for when we are upset with someone, the idea has far wider application. Use your own creativity and see how far you can go.
• A short woman no longer feels intimidated around tall people after one EFT session: Rod Sherwin from Australia shows us how to use EFT for limiting beliefs about ourselves. While this one has to do with "being short," the same idea can apply to many such personal beliefs.
• How to creatively use EFT on a dog--in this case for toxic reactions: Newcomers to EFT often ask, "Hey, how to I use EFT for animals?" Cathleen Campbell gives us her procedure for doing so in her well written article. Please note her list of 4 EFT features near the end. They serve as good perspective for us all.
