Re: [Tap 'n B Free] I've been doing EFT wrong!

[Guest guest]

Hello, after reading and re-reading Lyns post on success and then your post on

not using it for smoking I had to look at the reasons I had for not using EFT on

certain issues that seemed to be " unsuccessful " . Am I afraid to use it because

I know that the problem will be eliminated, or changed? That just opens up a

whole new set of core beliefs. Anyone who believes that is it silly to tap your

troubles away has no respect for the amount of work and insight that this

modality requires. I have never worked so hard to understand and clear issues

than I have with EFT. I have also never felt so close to what I feel is the

authentic self than now, but I have a long way to travel and you all on this

board are constantly adding new road signs. Thanks a kabillion.

for me as doing the eye movements during the setup while rubbing the

thing maybe, but I had dramatic things happen from it.

Hi a

If it works better for you doing it that way then keep on doing it. The

idea of the eye rolling is to go into every way you take in information and

form associations i.e. visual, auditory, kinaesthetic and inner dialogue.

I don't use the gamut steps anymore starting at the head and ending at the

karate chop point.

I think you have just given yourself lots of issues to tap on around your

smoking:

Even though I am not ready to give it up as it makes my inner child feel

like an adult.....

Even though I can smoke and no one can stop me....

Even though I feel like I am stil sneaking around behind my mother's back

and I feel ......

Be sure to tell yourself you will only give up when you feel comfortable and

safe to do so and tap until you do feel that sense of comfort and security.

Also ask yourself what made you start smoking? What is the most dominant

emotion that makes you reach for a cigarette? What would be the good things

about giving up smoking? What would you lose if you gave up smoking?

After some tapping try shouting out I am ready to give up smoking and notice

any negative emotion that comes up as an obstacle. Is there a physical

feeling when you crave a cigarette, if so where and tap on that.

What times of the day do you smoke and tap for those i.e. Even though I feel

comfort from having a cigarette staight after a meal...

Hope this gives you somewhere to start!

Good Luck

Start maybe with ...

Even though a part of me does not want to quit smoking...but another part

of me does.....I deeply and completely....

Even though I am resistant to quitting smoking....

Even though my inner child still wants to smoke.....

Even though I believe that I should quit smoking...

Even though in the past I enjoyed smoking, I choose now to quit smoking

and enjoy being a nonsmoker.

I'm loving it all!

and many others will be very interested.

HI,

This is how the setup is taught in a workshop I teach called Sabotage Clearing

and Goal Enhancement. While saying the statement we get the client to follow our

fingers, which are crossed, or a small round card with a cross marked on it,

with their eyes, around in a large circle.

This workshop teaches the same tapping as EFT as it too came from Callahan's

work but was written by Sue and Malcolm Chaffer of Sydney, Australia in 1989.

There are lots of other goodies in the workshop too.

I find it works better when doing the eye movements at the beginning with the

setup. Maybe because you trigger the other areas of the brain which have stuff

related to the issue before the tapping rather than half way through.....

Blessings, Kerri
