Tap away your anxiety – with EFT !
‘Every morning when I wake up, I start to worry that something awful will happen,’ said Michelle. Anxiety relief seemed beyond her.
She added, ‘And the anxiety stays around, even when things go well. It’s like a grey background to my life. Sometimes it’s very dark.’
One and a half million Australians suffer from anxious or depressive states. Long-lingering effects vary from heightened anxieties through bursts of panic to mind-numbing, energy-sapping states that deaden ‘aliveness’ (and earn the name ‘depression’).
Other people’s solutions? ‘Cheer up!’, ‘Get over it’, ‘Take a holiday’, ‘Try these pills I got for my headaches’ , even ‘Maybe you should be in hospital?’
Nowadays there’s an extra option – and it sounds a bit strange at first. A friend might say, as one did to Michelle, ‘I know this little technique that might help you, want to try it?’
Michelle did, and was surprised to find herself saying a few words while she fingertapped on her head, body and arms for a minute or two.
Her friend encouraged her to say, ‘Even though I feel really anxious, I accept myself,’ and guided her to tap on specific release points on her meridian energy system. This is the same energy system that acupuncture uses. Yet EFT applies the energy clearance to a huge range of problems besides the physical, with a high success rate.
Michelle was astonished that she soon felt and looked brighter and more energetic. She had achieved anxiety relief through this simple method.
She came to me to learn how to use this self-help Energy Psychology Therapy.
I first advised her to have a medical checkup. Meantime, I told her that her fast improvement was far from uncommon.
I said that if she persisted for a while with some daily tapping self-care that I could suggest, her serious condition may be permanently improved or eliminated
EFTcan work even if you’re sceptical
Well over six million people – including doctors and other health professionals – have gone past natural scepticism to adopt this simple tapping technique for reducing or eliminating some emotional, physical or performance problem. Many tell of their results on the Internet (www.eftuniverse.com).
In her one-hour session with me, Michelle learned the basic EFT procedure. And with guidance she was able to discover, identify and easily begin to neutralise some deep causes of her anxiety state, even including a traumatic childhood memory.
She decided to continue this deep healing with a few professional sessions. But she demonstrated that also, she could immediately tap away uncomfortable feelings herself.
‘Maybe I can help my family by showing them too,’ she said.
She left smiling, and carrying my how-to book, ‘Tapping Your Troubles Away with EFT’ (see www.EFTemotionalhealing.com ).
Anxiety can be a normal reaction to circumstances. But we know that too much stress should not be ignored. Anxiety relief is often a crucial step in preventing illness, and that’s easier than going down the hard road.
