Featured Article #3: How racism can lead to health problems and what to do about it: It should be no surprise that the deep emotional responses to racial prejudice can result in physical problems. Paul Zelizer gives us a classic example of this problem and shows how to use EFT to help resolve it. I add a helpful comment near the end. Email Paul

Featured Article #4: Reframes (seeing things differently) for guilt, shame and sorrow: Stewart Robertson from the UK gives us four "reframing Set ups" for common issues. Very helpful because they help the client to see these issues differently. He says, "The four setups and reframes below are tailored to those who have been infected by the not-good-enough virus, or those stuck in sorrow or guilt."Email Stewart and Visit his website

Past articles from the EFT Website

Employee overcomes anger at supervisor: Steve Wells demonstrates how easily intense anger can be defused. While the setting here is in the corporate workplace, the same result can be applied in marriages and other interpersonal relationships. The bottom line is that EFT can be used effectively to generate personal peace where none existed before. Isn't that our ultimate goal?
Ann Adams on getting EFT accepted by organizations: As you will see, Ann Adams has in-depth experience with how to communicate with the "Powers that be" within institutions. In fact, she IS one of those "Powers that be" within a facility for treating severely emotionally disturbed children. Her comments are invaluable aids for introducing EFT into institutional environments.
Sleep disorder relief for a 17 year old: Anita Bains offers this inspiring account of a 17 year old whose future could have taken a turn for the worse because of his reaction to his parents' relationship. In Anita's words, "[he] was unable to continue to go to school because of his inability to fall asleep until 5 or 6AM... After 3 sessions he began going to sleep between 10:30 and 11:00PM getting awake by 7 AM....he felt so energized he cleaned the whole house!"
Aiming EFT at the future: Mair Llewellyn-Edwards from the UK, shares with us some uses of EFT aimed at FUTURE events. According to Mair, "This [story] came from "Anne" one of my friends who has been going through a bad time with depression. She had been making little headway using EFT persistently on many personal traumas and numerous aspects of her depression. So, she decided she really could not lose anything by using EFT in this unconventional way." This, of course, opens up major new avenues for the innovative practitioner.
Using EFT to enhance persuasion skills: Silvia Hartmann-Kent from the UK was recently asked to submit an article to a publication regarding EFT's use in "Peak Persuasion." In her engaging way, Silvia has developed some entertaining and insightful reading for us all to share. You will find her methods for getting behind our emotional blocks to proper persuasion skills quite useful. Pay particular attention to her "CrimeLine" and "Mind Walk Technique."
Bedwetting and stammering: Here are two useful EFT applications that I am adding to the Children's section on our web site. Robert Huffman describes his use of EFT on bedwetting while Rick Saruna applies EFT to his son's stammering problem. Note Rick's persistence and the eventual unfolding of a core issue, namely, the subtle"fear of being kidnapped."
Using role playing with EFT: One of the flexibilities of EFT is the ability to blend it with other useful techniques. This EFT feature has been put to good use with hypnotherapy, Reiki, massage, EMDR, NLP, talk therapy and a long list of other procedures. In each case, the previous success ratios have improved substantially. Patricia Carrington, PhD gives us yet another example of this blending concept by using EFT to give added life to Role Playing--a standard therapeutic technique that has proven helpful in creating insights and perspective.
Rhythm, Pulse & Percussion in Tapping Treatments: Silvia Hartmann from the UK explores various means of stimulating the meridian points. In the past, I have had good results doing a version of her suggestions. For example, I have used a rhythm variation while tapping on someone through mental means. Without saying anything to the client, I "imagine tapping" on them while they are talking about their issue. Before doing so, however, I match their posture and attempt to "tune in" to their heartbeat so that, hopefully, our heartbeats are the same. This is an important rapport technique I learned from my NLP training. Once done, I use our joint heartbeat rhythm to establish my mental tapping cadence. Silvia shares other thoughts along these lines.
Emotional underdevelopment: Sylvia Hartmann-Kent shares a surprising success with her son after a long discouraging process. As she explains, "This was not a miraculous "one tap and the dead rise" kind of event. I've tapped a lot over the last year, half hearted and without much hope to be perfectly honest... But here we are. Stephen is beginning to understand the meaning of other people's emotions. Stephen made me a cup of coffee "Because it makes you happy, right?""
