Guest guest Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Go to youTube and type EFT into the search box and you'll find some great videos on tapping. I love to tap, but don't always do it. When I do, it helps like crazy. I'm going to throw some of my favorites into a playlist on youTube, where my screen name is Stregaa. Long story... Try it, tapping to a video and you will be hooked.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Bonnie, go to youTube and search for EFT. There are a few Brits who posted detailed " how-to " videos, but their names escape me and I'm on my way out.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 First off, I heard this on a podcast: " If it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid. " I prefer to look at this as a necessary absurdity. Try a statement like: " Even though I feel COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS doing this, I completely and totally love and accept myself. Even though this looks like the SILLIEST thing in the world, I know it's going to help me and I completely love and accept myself. " Acknowledge and embrace absurdity and you will find yourself laughing. And 30 minutes of good, hard belly laughter a day keeps the boogeyman way. In a message dated 5/8/2009 1:40:27 P.M.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 I would encourage everyone to try EFT. I am into " alternative medicine " kind of stuff, and, admittedly, even I think it is one of the goofiest, silliest, how-in-the-world-could-that-possibly-work? things I've ever done----but it does work! I only printed the materials off the website and watch a couple videos. (Watching the videos is helpful bc you can see that it's a pretty " fluid " process and no need to get hung up on being super precise about things) What I've found it helpful for is " releasing " emotions....especially anger, irritation, etc. I'm the kind of person who has a bad dream, and that " bad " feeling sticks with me all day in the background. Or I'll get irritated and I keep thinking those thoughts over and over. So, basically it helps me " get over it. " To whatever extent those negative emotions influence your overeating, I think it could be helpful. I don't just do it for the anti-overeating effects, but for overall wellness (if you believe that negative emotions in fact influences health in a number of different ways.) Anyway, just wanted to encourage those who were wondering about it, to actually try it. IT COULD NOT BE EASIER OR CHEAPER. And by the time you finish the process, you will probably be laughing at yourself because you'll probably feel pretty goofy doing it. But try it!

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 I am new to the group, but this topic of EFT has me wanting to contibute some thoughts. There are numerous ways or techniques people use to release emotions. We have EFT, accupunture, body work massage, trigger point releases, myofascial release, journaling, counseling, talking to your dog/friend/stuffed animal, and some not so therapeutic techniques. Such as tatoos, body piercing,, alcohol abuse, drug abuse, sex addiction, gambling, food addiction, peanut butter addiction, punching a wall, hitting a pillow, beating your kid, shooting your wife, head banging, cutting, suicide...... I truly wish I had known about the " silly " techniques that are available in my younger days and could maybe have avoided some of the nontherapeutic techniques. I say try it and see. If it works, great! If not, try something else. What is important is to find a healthy outlet for your emotional " stuff " and to heal. > > I would encourage everyone to try EFT.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Well I have sort of an EFT success story. I had to have a procedure on Friday which required an IV. Now . . . I am terrified of getting IV's because it's always been a nightmare. I have terrible veins. The last time i had surgery, they eventually had to numb my entire arm and it took the anesthesia TEAM over 45 minutes to find a vein and they ended up damaging the nerves in my hand to do it. So you can imagine my reluctance. So Friday I just visualized an easy stick all morning. When the nurse came I explained my problem and she brought out the anesthesiologist We decided to try warm compresses (which I've tried before with no luck). I kept doing positive affirmations. When they went to get the equipment I did a quick round of EFT. I swear I am not lying -- The nurse anesthetist stuck me once and found a vein!!!! It was quite amazing!!!

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Hi everyone, I have had success, but I have yet to try it out in the weight releasing area. I am reluctant to use it on everything (although I know it is encouraged) because I found it is quite powerful and want to make sure I use it properly. I had unbelievable success with restless leg syndrome. It used to drive me crazy, and prevent me from getting to sleep, but it cured me for about 3 years, and then it returned - so I performed EFT again, and its gone away. You question, has reminded me to try it again - and I'll listen to 's podcasts on EFT again this weekend to try to get me out of this hiatus.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 I couldn't sleep well the other night and I had just listened to the podcast about snoozing strategies. Well, I tried EFT for the first time. It worked. I think it worked for a couple of reasons; it allowed me to focus my mind, to calm myself, to set my intention of sleeping and viola I had a great rest. I just wanted to share that because I had been a little skeptical of EFT before but heck I slept well Good luck all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
