Enhancing Your Results with EFT:

1. Aspects:

Sometimes it appears that no progress is being made in using EFT when in fact we are really coming up against different aspects of the problem. Each aspect is simply a new portion of the problem which needs addressing before complete relief may be gained. Some problems have many aspects to them and each aspect should be handled with a round of EFT as if it is a separate problem. When several aspects of an emotional problem are present, you may not experience complete relief until all aspects have been reduced to zero.

Feelings - Aspects may be a set of related feelings. For example, we may feel fearful about something and at the same time be embarrassed and angry with ourselves for having these fear feelings. These related feelings are other aspects of the problem. It's likely that each of these feelings will need to be treated in order for you to experience complete relief.

Events - Aspects may be a set of related events. For example, you may have had several experiences that relate to the problem you are treating. Use the "Run the Movie" Technique taught in the workshop to treat these. If you have had many such events, treating a few of them very well usually means the effect generalizes to the others.

Thoughts or Beliefs - Aspects may be a set of related thoughts or beliefs. There are often underlying subconscious beliefs blocking our getting over the problem. Ask yourself: What do I think about this problem - or having this problem - or about my ability to get over this problem? When you have identified any negative or limiting beliefs, simply apply EFT to the belief by repeating the belief statement in the set up and as you apply the tapping procedure. (See below for a list of the beliefs which are typically present).

Bodily Sensations - Aspects may be a series of bodily sensations. These may shift or vary in intensity as you apply EFT. The process to follow here is what Gary Craig calls "chasing the pain". Simply continue to apply EFT to whatever body sensations arise in turn until you experience relief.

A Combination - Aspects may be a combination of the above.

Think "around" the problem-where your reactions and associations take you. Be prepared to follow whatever comes up and persist with the EFT process.

Sometimes we "tap into" an emotion or situation that is more intense than the one we started with. If this occurs, continue the tapping procedure on this new emotion and persist until it reduces. Clinical experience with difficult problems-those with hundreds of aspects-indicates that when you treat around a dozen aspects comprehensively with EFT (which may take a few hours of tapping), the rest don't generally bother you emotionally any more.

2. Psychological Reversal:

Psychological Reversal (PR) is the term given to subconscious negative beliefs that hold us back from getting over-or completely over- a problem. Callahan theorized that when PR is present our energy system is literally flowing in the opposite direction from the change that we desire to make. PR is hypothesized to be present in about 40% of problems you attempt to treat. This means that if you don't correct for it you will not make the progress you desire.

PR is almost always present in cases of depression and with addictions. Other examples of PR include slumps in sports, self-sabotage, physical conditions that refuse to heal, call reluctance, and learning difficulties, although it may be present in any problem.

In any area of your life where you are not making the progress you wish to make, PR may be the cause. The good news is that the correction for PR is really very simple - as long as we are able to identify the underlying belief that is preventing us from moving forward. Most PR can be corrected for a period of time by massaging the "sore spot" whilst repeating a self-accepting statement (the set-up statement). The "karate-chop" point can also be used, if the other gets tender with a lot of use. If this does not appear to be working, try saying it more loudly and emphatically. If this still doesn't work...

Deeper Negative Beliefs - You may be striking some deeper negative beliefs which block progress. Say: "I deeply and profoundly accept myself with all my faults and problems" whilst rubbing the sore spot.

Pay attention to the set-up for the problem, and bring in such beliefs- tapping on any that are meaningful to you (a sequence of EFT for each). For example:

"I don't believe I can get over this problem"
" I don't deserve to get over this problem"
"It's not safe for me to get over this problem"
"I'll be a different person if I get over this problem"
"It's too hard for me / I can't really get over this problem"

Other Common General Blocks - Here are some other common, general blocks (which each require a "set-up" and sequence of tapping if relevant to your problem):

I accept myself deeply and completely even if:

I haven't got what it takes to get over this problem
I can never get over this problem
This problem is part of me
I'm afraid to get over this problem
I don't believe I can get over this problem

Do the EFT sequence of tapping while thinking of the block that fits in your situation (using the block phrase as your reminder phrase).

Sometimes we get so far and no further. For example, we may get the emotional intensity down to a 5 but then find that we can't get it to reduce any further. This is what is called a "mini-reversal" and relates to fears or negative beliefs we may have about getting "fully" over the problem. These can usually be corrected by adding the statement "even if I fully get over this problem" eg. "I accept myself even if I lose my identity by getting fully over this problem", Or "I accept myself, even if I fear fully getting over this problem". Address the PR statement to whatever the blocking belief seems to be and it will often respond to your efforts.

(Note: Sometimes it is difficult for us to identify what these beliefs are as we are too close to them - we are living within them so to speak. This is why it can be helpful to do the process with a trained practitioner of these techniques. See our practitioners list for details of practitioners near you.)

How Do I Know The Right Words To Say When I'm Tapping?

By David Lake This question is perennial. To me it indicates that the mind is concerned about getting the instructions correct (and worried about getting them 'wrong'...). You might not need too many words at all! While EFT is robust and forgiving as a technique, it's easy to forget that it's a body-energy technique and not strictly a psychological one.

Thus, the emotion of the issue fills your system regardless of how the mind processes the problem, and this might be why focus and persistent tapping bring so many positive and varied results. I find it better to tap on body sensations and reactions than to get over-concerned about labelling every feeling. I am also interested in bringing the maximum leverage to the use of EFT by concentrating its effect on the most intense aspects of the dysfunction.

One of the best ways to do this is to emphasise and exaggerate the negative. This is important if you believe that EFT works its wonders by harmonizing the disruptions in our 'reactive' emotional system. I have also found that a light-hearted therapeutic focus on the dark side of personality and life can bring disproportionate relief, ironic acceptance, laughter, and compassion--and EFT will facilitate the unique alchemy of transformation. Steve Wells, another EFT Contributing Editor, and I have been investigating this approach toward the negative over recent years in our Energy work (it is not fair to assume that his therapeutic imagination is more bizarre or surreal than mine).

This is a composite example of how I would do this in treating a relationship issue. The presenting problem is the frustration of a wife who 'can't trust' her husband, as a result of repeated broken promises. The couple sits together in a counselling session, both have learned EFT, and it is her turn to talk about her grievance. I ask her to tap on facial points whenever she feels intense about the situation, as it is important to take up every opportunity to 'treat as you go', and to end such a session with as many sequences of tapping completed as comfortably possible. I also ask the husband, this time, to tap for relief, if he needs to, while she talks--but to be silent.

She says: "He's always saying one thing and doing another...I get my hopes up but he never follows through. He lies! I'm sick of it!". Now I ask permission to go further with this, and request that she look into her husband's eyes while she follows my actions and repeats my words.

I say, for the three 'set-up' statements:

"Even though you lie to me...and let me down...and dash my hopes...part of me still loves you."
"Even though you say one thing and do another, I do my best to handle you."
"Even though you never follow through...and I'm really sick of it...and maybe there is no answer to this... I'm going to find an answer if I can."

Now she taps on the 7 basic shortcut points while saying: "You lie. You let me down. I can't stand it. I can't stand you. I have no hope. Maybe we can't make it. I don't know what to do."

While these statements are intuitive, they also pace the wife's experience, and she knows from my inquiries after the sequences that she can adjust their accuracy if she wants to (instant feedback). I find that all such statements have come up at one time in the mind of a distressed spouse ('speaking the unspeakable' according to Frank Farrelly, originator of Provocative Therapy). Typically by using the paradox of worsening the situation, strong emotion surfaces and releases. She would typically cry or get angry.

I now say: "Keep on tapping around the points" (Very important to keep tapping with strong feelings, as this is the antidote). Now I switch to the body: "If you had to name a place in your body where these feelings might collect, where would it be?" The answer might be over the heart. I say: "Put one hand over that place and focus all your attention underneath--as if those feelings have a shape and you could connect with that shape, and touch it". We keep tapping in silence so as not to interrupt the process with words, and to give some time and space to the obvious hurt.

Sometimes this can take a few minutes. Often I will ask if I can help by doing some of the tapping for her, and if the answer is 'yes', I will use the hand points (and wrist yin/yang meeting points); Gary has done this tapping for the client consistently in all his EFT trainings and it is a beautiful gesture and assistance in the right hands.

When things settle down I check the body sensations and their intensity, and repeat some sequences on 'chest emotion' or 'heart feeling' if necessary. It's not vital to get such intensities down to zero as they represent a big picture which is unfolding, so aspects of the problem pop up in many guises, and you deal with them naturalistically (if not logically).

I like to emphasise the bizarre aspects of loving and hating someone simultaneously (the 'good' partner and the 'bad' partner), and making molehills into mountains so that eventually even the client finds it hard to agree that they have teamed up with the 'worst person in the world', or that their 'shocking bad judgement' in saying 'yes' to him means that they are a 'very slow learner'!

A healthy disputing commences, which I can humorously refute, as if I am on the side of her nightmare and as if I agree that it's really too hard or hopeless (or whatever she said when she was steamed up). I would tap on either side of the belief system, emphasizing the good or the bad, but I would exaggerate that polarity to an uncomfortable degree, using a cartooning or lampooning irony if possible. This is a slippery situation for the client to respond to.

For maximum effect she can follow a sequence of tapping where the good and the bad are presented alternately with each point! The 'good' news will usually have an echo in the client's belief structure, which is a disbelieving or cynical opposite response, while the 'bad' news is treated anyway in the usual manner. A lot of negativity is processed very quickly with such accelerated confusion. That confusion exists anyway in the love/hate dichotomy but, after EFT, it settles to tolerable levels.

While doing the setup, I would have the wife say (looking at her partner): "Although part of me hates what you do, I don't hate you-but I do sometimes, and I hate feeling like that; and even if all that is true, I accept myself deeply and completely... I accept myself, even though it's very hard to accept myself as a wife when I have these hateful feelings... I love and forgive myself even though it might be a very long time before I'll do that for you, considering your track record."

Now she taps on the 7 points, moving to the next point with each phrase: "I love you. I don't love you. I hate you. Part of me loves you. Part of me hates you. I only love the good you. I really hate the bad you."

We progress in the session by testing the original propositions and complaints for emotional intensity. If things have shifted to positive and life-affirming directions, a guaranteed way to further the work required is to get the husband to proffer some of his favourite excuses or rationalizations. With the wife's response you will find more work to be done! Later in therapy the husband has a turn, and the couple can do all of the above strategies together, simultaneously or sequentially, straight or paradoxically. Are we having fun yet?

Of course as the therapist you need excellent rapport and loving kindness in your empathic resonance. I also think you need to be able to tolerate the ambiguity and ambivalence involved in 'making the problem worse' in a creative and loving way. For some, this emphasis would go against the grain of positive thinking (or the pursuit of happiness in some countries). It might even be unconstitutional.

Flash: This works! You can even do it yourself for your own private reactive problems. Return to top

TRAUMA AND P.T.S.D.: An Overview of Treatment With EFT

by Dr David Lake

(With thanks for inspiration from Gary Craig, and all the contributors to the E.F.T. field at http://www.emofree.com)

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (P.T.S.D.)

Time does NOT heal.

A strict definition of P.T.S.D. might refer to experiences involving wartime or deadly danger.

This condition manifests in a group of symptoms and feelings, including problems such as:

· Intrusive symptoms Nightmares Spontaneous memories of the experience Flashbacks

· Avoidant behaviours Emotional numbing Detachment / withdrawal from ordinary life Avoiding anxiety-stimulating situations or people

· Arousal symptoms Hypervigilance Anger outbursts Exaggerated "startle response"

A far more common and minor version of this disorder is part of universal human experience of traumatic stress. The stressful event may not have been connected, for example, with the fear of losing your life, nevertheless, the recipient has a toxic memory experience “frozen” into the nervous-emotional system in some way. The memory reliably brings great emotional distress far into the future. It is not changed much over time.

More obviously we suffer because of a defined event. This can be an accident, an assault or an experience where we became fearful and helpless. Sometimes it is an accumulation of stressful experiences over time in some occupations.

In childhood, the experience of hurt and fear in “normal” development can cause emotions to be suppressed, and stunt emotional development. This is the central idea behind psychotherapist Alice Miller’s book “The Drama Of Being A Child”. To this extent we all have “traumatic” memories and experiences worth addressing and treating if they do underlie problems in our present—often outside our awareness.

Even more importantly, we now know that the soldiers who suffered the most following war service in Vietnam tended to have the most suffering before they went to Vietnam—when they were young, often in their family of origin. In that conflict, soldiers were not able to process all that happened to them before they were flown back home, whereas in World War 2, many soldiers had a long period of time after the battles to travel home and talk with their buddies. Even so, the graphic film, “Saving Private Ryan”, set in World War 2, screened in American cinemas ‘full of weeping, older men” according to newspaper reports.

Key Features Of Traumatic Stress

(reference Professor Sandy McFarlane (Head of the Department of Psychiatry, University of Adelaide); article in the "Australian Doctor” 12 May 1998)

There is a universal pattern of response to intense fear. The consistency of reactions validates P.T.S.D. as a specific disorder. A minimum of 15% of "exposed" people develop P.T.S.D. following such fear.

Other abnormal reactions to trauma exposure include:

o Dissociation (a feeling of being ‘split off” from what is happening) o Somatisation (the body has problems and poor function) o Affect deregulation (lack of emotional self-regulation leading to problems). These include: o Difficulty in mediating anger (outbursts) o Self-destructive/suicidal behaviour o Risk-taking behaviour o Depression (up to 50 per cent of sufferers) o Anxiety disorders (e.g. panic, excessive fears, agitation)

This means sufferers lose contact in their inner world with what keeps them steady and secure, and feel the loss of that previous normal way of being. As time passes the person can also begin to blame themselves for not getting better more quickly, or even for developing the personal reaction-problem in the first place.

Where someone you care for has been harmed, it is important to recognise co-existing ‘grief’ for friends and relatives in these disorders—others become disturbed by the trauma indirectly, since the horror of the experience can disturb the "object-relatedness" with the image of the loved one (the way we think and feel about them)

There is an accumulated risk from repeated exposure to traumatic events, as in emergency work, and this can be triggered sometimes by a single event, which is a particularly "meaningful" or upsetting one to the individual. Sometimes it is unpredictable—our capacity to cope with bad things is very individual. The classic example is war; often severe emotional trauma is a daily event. The role of the media in traumatizing—and re-traumatising viewers—using repeats of the nightly news should not be under-estimated. Now depictions of real and graphic violence are brought into our homes so easily. Many people and children became very afraid after ‘September 11’ according to my information, when they had no personal reason to be so scared.

Psychiatrist Anthony Feinstein from the University of Toronto contacted 140 war journalists in 2000, and interviewed one in five; he found that 27% had symptoms of P.T.S.D. (source The Walkley Magazine)

The biology of P.T.S.D. is not the biology of stress—it is much more. There is disruption of the person’s capacity to modulate stimulation ("self-soothe"), and to memory systems. We don’t tend to settle down after the danger passes. Traumatic experiences can be toxic to the brain because of direct neurohormonal influences coupled with progressive increase in the "sensitivity" of parts of the brain. This is thought to be particularly marked in children subjected to chronic abuse.

After trauma: "There is a critical transition phase, within the first few days, where the effects of trauma don't subside for some; they start to become chronic. There is a progressive escalation of symptoms rather than coping..." (quote from reference article)

Four Activity Model of Psychotherapy

(after Howard Lipke: The International Electronic Journal of Innovations in the Study of the Traumatization Process; April 1997)

"Positive integration with speed"

The primary goal of all psychotherapy may be seen as helping clients to re-process information (maladaptive beliefs, behaviour, emotions, sensations, painful intrusive images) held dysfunctionally. A consequential goal is to help clients acquire and process new information, to enhance adaptive functioning.

Francine Shapiro (originator of E.M.D./R.) has developed an "accelerated information processing " model of psychotherapy, where learning-based psychopathology is the result of incomplete processing. Removing "blocks" to processing will result in adaptive re-processing. This model also fits with the outcomes seen using E.F.T.

Category 1: Accessing of existing information; as in:

Cognitive information, interpretative questions, physical sensations

Category 2: Introduction of new information (e.g. information about the "unconscious")

Normative data, reinforcement

Category 3: Facilitation of information processing

This part of therapy can accelerate and complete processing. I consider that his is where the Energy therapies prevail... · E.F.T. / T.F.T. / B.S.F.F. / T.A.T. · Hypnotherapy · Neuro-Linguistic Programming: N.L.P. · Traumatic Incident Reduction: T.I.R. · E.M.D./R.

Category 4: Inhibition of information accessing

Relaxation, distraction , self-hypnosis. (Medication)

All techniques must be integrated with other models of therapy since none is a panacea.

General Considerations

You need to be ‘centered’ and relaxed to help others by doing trauma work. Ideally your own inner world is peaceful. Your life is going well. You approach the idea of helping others and using E.F.T. with confidence.

A key feature of doing trauma work with E.F.T. is tapping simultaneously with the client, to remain calm and to avoid your own traumatisation in the session by what you hear, or think about.

Of course you need to set aside sufficient time for assessment and also for a treatment session (which may be different times).

I think it is important to demonstrate E.F.T. on a ‘neutral’ subject if you can in such a session. This might be any tension in the body, or a physical ailment, rather than an emotional issue.

Relational Aspects Of The Session

Rapport

The relational aspects of healing are as important as the technique; your intentional care and respect really count. Here the importance of the therapy ‘frame’ is paramount. Being with disturbed clients in a compassionate way is healing in itself. Meet the person at their level of experiencing the world, with empathy and understanding. Introduce your strategies appropriately and thoughtfully, since most often the sufferer is willing to do anything to gain relief from their disabling problem. Your energy and your wish for the client also provide a channel for healing.

History-taking

It's very important to know as much as possible about the client's life psychologically, even if urgent treatment is required. Note whether the client has support from family or friends, and whether they have pre-existing conditions likely to affect recovery.

When trauma is treated very late, after years, any chronic problems prior to the specific events require healing too, in general terms (viz. the E.M.D./R. experience of Francine Shapiro with Vietnam Veterans in the 1990's)

Treatment

First establish security and safety for the afflicted person according to their needs.

Most of the talking therapies include the healthy aspects of common-sense education and advice (where the timing is appropriate for that). Since all behaviour occurs in a context it makes sense to establish goals of support and healing for your session.

Supply a holding therapeutic framework, which—with your help or therapy—can contain the toxic emotions which flood the survivor.

Debrief by discussing the event and developing ways of thinking actively and meaningfully about what has happened (I initially don’t want specific details of the trauma since I won’t use E.F.T. until I am ready to deal with the consequences for the client of telling the whole story). Of course this must be respectful to the understanding of the person, and their ability at each stage of treatment to process information. Many fears and anxieties are irrational. The support of friends, family and faith is crucial in healing a recent trauma.

In the example of military response to war trauma, the forces emphasise:

· Proximity: help nearby · Immediacy: support · Expectancy: return to full function

E.F.T., as part of the Energy therapies and other healing modalities, offers unique opportunities to groups and individuals who need urgent treatment as part of disasters. It is possible to teach populations simple methods for self-help and immediate practical assistance. The only drawback to large-scale use seems to be the human reluctance to try new methods that are generally ‘scientifically unproven’.

Therapeutic modalities include:

· Cognitive Behavioural Therapy: C.B.T. · Insight-oriented psychotherapy · Hypnotherapy · Somatic Therapies (e.g. Hakomi bodywork, Rolfing, Shiatsu) · Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing: E.M.D./R. · Energy & Meridian-Based Techniques (e.g. E.F.T. & T.F.T.; [B.S.F.F.]; T.A.T. and Laser stimulation) · Medication

You need to be ready to switch approaches if they don't seem to be working, and individualise treatment.

For severe reactions, or a reluctance to have therapeutic help when it’s necessary, medication can be very useful (a modern anti-depressant) as a facilitating step. There is still a stigma attached to having treatment for any “mental” disorder in our society.

"A significant portion of people with early symptoms - who are not motivated by compensation - do go on to develop a chronic disorder and often it is the beginning of an overall decline, in which they develop other psychiatric disorders. If ever there was a role for PREVENTION in psychiatry, this is it. The early identification and effective treatment of this condition is ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL" (article—with my emphasis)

Why Use E.F.T.?

"Healing is helping the Life Force (Chi) to flow freely" (Avis Burnett)

E.F.T. may be "the most comfortable therapy because it is most removed (from ‘flooding’)" (Howard Lipke on T.F.T.—the forerunner of E.F.T.)

E.F.T. is a "Category 3" activity par excellence; it offers profound change rapidly, in experienced hands, and is a multi-level healing of mind, body and emotion. Moreover it is generally a safe, ‘containing’ and gentle modality regardless of the severity of the trauma.

It is ideal as self-help and the simple all-purpose algorithm is easy to learn and apply. Although it is a technique, and not a therapy in itself, it has the potential to facilitate great change generally. It is most unusual to find no effect with the use if E.F.T. in emotional issues.

In some 6 years of direct experience of treating all kinds of trauma with this Energy modality, I have found that in a previously well person, with a single-incident trauma (such as a motor vehicle accident, or assault) 1-2 thorough treatment sessions of an hour or so each (by a trained person) can be sufficient for full resolution of the emotional basis of the distress—such that the memory of the incident no longer provokes any dysfunctional emotional intensity, although the memory details and thoughts remain. The positive changes are naturalistic and seem to “fit” into the person’s life and personality seamlessly.

With group techniques there exists the opportunity for mass treatment in natural disasters. This is cost-effective and enables the group to be trained in self-help with E.F.T. simultaneously. I have seen that by using E.F.T. persistently, ordinary people can achieve positive outcomes for themselves and for others that are unknown in the orthodox therapeutic approaches.

Protocols In E.F.T.

· Typically in Trauma work I will use the 7-point E.F.T. shortcut alone in a mechanical fashion, which allows me to concentrate on the person in front of me. For continual tapping I choose to have the person tap either the cheek or collarbone points, the little finger point, sometimes the ‘combination’ wrist points, while they think, or process information, or feel intensely. I want the meridian system stimulated very much during treatment, without too much talking about the results until the work is over.

· Treat global concerns first:

"Even though: I have all these problems... “ Life could be better... “ I sometimes get intense..."

Are there fears about telling the history? Many people are afraid of being retraumatised—with good reason. They know that every time they think about the event they will suffer. And sometimes well-meaning helpers inadvertently add to the problems of the sufferer if merely telling the story is the basis of treatment. For some sufferers this will bring the whole issue back up severely.

A possibility here—particularly with groups— is to use the Tearless Trauma Technique (see the website http://www.emofree.com/trauma/tearless.htm) where the problem is approached indirectly, from the “as if” position, using dissociation from the event to allow repeated E.F.T. sequences for smooth access.

You can ask: "What emotions do you think we need to deal with first?” (Bruce Eimer)

Or: "Which emotion, if it were suddenly cleared, would make the biggest improvement in your life?" (Callie Currier)

· Work on the physical discomforts initially. This gains rapport and is a good way to introduce the benefit of relaxation with E.F.T. Do the treatment on:

Tensions / headaches / racing heart / constricted breathing / body sensations generally...

You may find that there are areas of tension and pain that move around with successive E.F.T. sequences; this is called "chasing the pain....”. Treat whatever is now the focus of discomfort.

· Be sensitive to the symbolism and metaphors presented by the client or the story. Sometimes this is the best clue to the underlying issues. One client told me “I’m holding on by my fingernails”. We did several E.F.T. sequences about her “poor fingernails” (associating to the difficulty of doing that) with productive results. Her belief was that “nothing in life really works out...” You could also ask the person how they would describe their situation to someone else, or explain it to a friend who didn’t know about it, to gain clues about their inner world.

· Observe the person very carefully. Their posture, breathing, appearance, gestures, mannerisms and way of being will communicate what their words may not (this is particularly true of children)

· Use your intuition about the person and situation, and the feelings ‘generated’ inside you by them

· You can check in with the client during this treatment: "What goes with that?”

It is very productive to ask (after tapping effectively on a physical sensation for several E.F.T. sequences):

“What thought goes with that feeling?” Allow them to ‘blurt out’ spontaneously whatever comes up. Proceed with more tapping.

And when the cognitive trail seems to ‘fade’ after several sequences, you can ask:

“What feeling goes with that thought?... If there were a place in your body where it might be sitting—where do you imagine that might be?”

Proceed with more tapping, while the client places all the attention on that area...or could place a hand over the place and focus underneath it.

· I consider that the more E.F.T. sequences used —or the more persistently-done overall amount of continual tapping, while talking through the event—the better will be the clinical outcome in a treatment session. I have found it better to delay the cognitive processing and understanding of the treatment until some time has passed after an intensive session. An intensive session of an hour or more involves some 15-20 complete sequences and much continual tapping (if necessary for persisting negative emotion) while checking in with the client about the results and consequences.

It is common that after a thorough treatment, the person may let go other fears and worries that seemed to be unconnected to the traumatic event. In treating a man only for the upset of a motor vehicle accident (where he had to assist a severely-injured and bleeding person) I found that the man’s life-long phobia of seeing blood ‘disappeared’ spontaneously after treatment with E.F.T. for the trauma of the event. He was able that evening to watch a hospital program on T.V. for the first time without reaction.

Gary Craig's Model of E.F.T. Treatment

Gary suggests that one good technique for those with good visual imaginations is to construct a movie in your mind of the event, lasting only a minute or so, which represents the whole event, from beginning to end, if possible. Then, instruct the client to "Run the movie..." step by step, such that whenever the client feels any intensity at all, you stop the movie and do E.F.T. sequences on that intensity until there is relief, even if it is not ‘zero’. Then resume the movie. There is no need to force the issue or to be courageous on the part of the client. You can also do this technique naturalistically by “Telling the story...” in a similar way.

Use specific issues and words (from the client’s history) where possible. The person stays in the present tense when telling the story. Deal with one incident at a time, ideally. Be aware of prior trauma(s) and the likelihood of “switching" to another "aspect" of the problem during treatment. Sometimes emotional distress represents “retraumatisation" of a significant emotional event in the developmental life of the client (one problem reminds us of another). Feelings of resistance in the client may be due to the fear of losing control, or negative beliefs; treat these specifically by seeking them out and finding the words to treat them in the session Ideally the client does self-treatment regularly to gain afterwards the "generalising effect" of E.F.T.—this may require sequences up to 25 times daily for the more distressed (and setting blocks of time aside morning and night for regular treatment)

"PERSISTENCE, PERSISTENCE, PERSISTENCE...”

Self Help With EFT and SET

For minor trauma experienced in day-to-day hurts or tribulations, the technique of “Telling The Story” is ideal. A short period of EFT or SET work could bring better balance to nearly all irritations.

Step 1 Treat yourself with EFT or SET sequences on any concerns or doubts related to doing this treatment, and any connected negative beliefs if you can identify these.

Step 2 “Tell the story” of what happened in your mind, step by step, such that if you feel emotional intensity at any point, stop giving the account and treat yourself with EFT or SET sequences for relief. Focus on the strongest impressions, which—for you— could be images, or self-talk, or body feelings. After gaining reasonable relief, start the account again.

Step 3 When you have finished, stop and review the story. Make sure there is no residual intensity. Now scan your body for any tension and treat that, if present.

For deeper problems, the key to achieving good results like this is to focus and to persist. It is better to do a lot of tapping on the hurt even if you are unsure about the words to say or exactly what the issues are.

Focus Either on the mental aspects of the problem (the associated memories, thoughts, ideas, images, sounds) or on feelings in the body (any tension, aching, feelings that come up in certain places)

Persistence Doing many sequences during time you set aside (say 30 minutes). Doing continual tapping (without a set-up) any time you have intensity.

N.B. You can treat yourself in public by discretely touching the points and “breathing into” each one (John Diepold’s “Touch & Breathe” technique). Just thinking about using EFT or SET will often bring relaxation and benefits.

E.F.T. For Children

My colleague Steve Wells says always treat yourself first (for your own concerns and worries about your Child’s problems) before you help your child (http://www.emofree.com/children/forparents.htm)

Children need much less time in repeated E.F.T. sequences than adults (sometimes only a few ‘taps’). One of the best ways to help them for daily ‘problems’ is at bedtime according to Gary Craig (see http://www.emofree.com/children/mustprocedure.htm) :

“The basic idea is simple. Every night, while children are being tucked into bed, parents should ask: ‘Can you tell me about your good and bad thoughts as well as the good and bad things that happened to you today?’ Then, as the events are being told (both good and bad), the parents should lightly and lovingly either tap or gently rub the EFT points”.

Generally children respond quickly and resiliently if their world (and the adults in it) is not too disturbed Paradoxically, what adults think is not disturbing to a child may well be so (e.g. minor surgery)!

Negative Beliefs (Blocking Beliefs) During E.F.T. Treatment

The sufferer can’t really accept what has happened and that it happened to them.

It is actually quite validating—and experienced as relief by the client—when the helper acknowledges compassionately just how hard it has been for the sufferer. Conversely it is upsetting to the sufferer to be told indirectly that it’s going to be easy to get help, or improve. Here it is important to respect the mental set of the person who does want to get better but is so blocked. It is always best to under-promise and over-deliver when using E.F.T.

One of the best ways is to use the client’s apprehensions and doubts in the set-up phrases; either they tell you this themselves, or you could check it out with them.

"I'll never get over this problem” "I have to do it myself-- and I can't” "I can't be helped” "This condition is a part of me / belongs to me” "I'll lose my identity if I get over this problem”

In general psychological reversal will exist. You can say in the ‘setup’: “(Although) this condition belongs to me... is a part of me..."

It is also universally true that if we have a long-term problem we can’t “fix”, then we may experience helplessness, and also develop more self-criticism and blame, because now the consequences of having the problem are personal. First we have the problem and then we have our attitude to the problem—invariably a negative one in this context. People commonly say “I should have handled this better” and “I shouldn’t have let this happen in the first place”. Even if they give it a “spin” and call it a learning experience, the underlying negative beliefs prevail.

Correct these client-centred concepts with appropriate words and interventions during treatment, especially following and utilising the client’s own negative words and ideas. Bring them into the set-up statement of E.F.T. You are heading toward greater self-acceptance despite the reactions from the traumatic event.

Processing Information Using E.F.T. (with quotes from therapists in the Energy Therapy field)

These require exploration and treatment in the session when they arise.

Discovering Issues

These are stimulated by the leading questions:

"What is the first/ worst/ last time you remember feeling this feeling?”

“What does having this problem mean about you?”

“Who taught you (to think/feel) this?”

“Where did you learn about this?”

Fear Underlying issues of fear and self-esteem are essential to identity. "I might lose my identity if I get over this problem" (Bruce Eimer). Fear that the problem is permanent. Fear that the problem might return after treatment.

Safety In the session. In the world.

Self-worth Whether the client is deserving of the healing ("someone else needs me to have this problem...") Victimhood. Treat the underlying negative beliefs by incorporating them in the setup phrase, and by being persistent with E.F.T. as self-help over time.

Anger This might present—especially in men—as a protection from fear or sadness or hurt. It leads to blame, resentment, judgement, criticism and unforgiveness—all of which can be fruitfully treated with E.F.T. Note that rage may comprise "old" anger and grief

"I'm angry at myself for having these problems, and not handling them better... at (someone) for causing this problem, or for not helping to prevent this problem... at the world for being like this... at God, for allowing this problem to happen to me..." (Larry Nims)

Sadness

Legitimate sadness and negative emotion will not be shifted by E.F.T. but we must find out what proportion of the suffering represents that. As always, a sensitive approach to the loss and grief of a life-changing trauma will help the person own and accept the significant changes.

Deep Hurt (leading to anger and fear)

N.B. Treating the "deep hurt" may radically streamline and shorten treatment of consequent problems

Guilt "I did wrong..."

Shame "I am wrong..."

Unforgiveness

"True forgiveness is the ultimate aim of all healing" (Gary Craig)

Forgiveness is about the client, not the other; it is letting go of contraction, constriction and judgment, and of the consequences (in life) of holding on to anger and resentment. As the saying goes, while you’re getting depressed, they’re out dancing...

"My recovery is no longer dependent on your apology" (Gloria Arenson)

"Forgiveness is ultimately a spiritual issue" (Larry Nims) "I forgive and release.......... and turn our relationship over to God...I now call back all parts of my spirit and life force which are attached to............. and any thoughts or events concerning.........." (Susan Parker)

Beware of trying to go straight to forgiveness without working through sadness, anger or fear – the "spiritual bypass"! (Harry Corsover)

N.B. Forgiveness emerges when the healing is near completion. "I never hurry anyone" (Marilyn Gordon)

Holding on to the hurt never helped anyone, but forgiveness is a very personal issue and may not eventuate according to the wishes of the therapist—or at all. Keep this in mind and avoid the ‘demand’ on the client to conform to a non-authentic version of their world.

Difficulties & Drawbacks Using E.F.T. For Trauma

Depression

Sometimes E.F.T. doesn’t work well enough because of co-existing moderately severe depression.

I have great respect for clinical depression as a vicious opponent of emotional freedom, and I have found out the hard way, over more than a decade, that a proportion of severe trauma sufferers need medication for depression, with modern agents, in order to heal—this is especially true for P.T.S.D. Nearly all my professional clinical setbacks have been due to not treating moderate to severe depression adequately.

This orthodox treatment path is sometimes seen as a failure by both client and practitioner, but depression either responds to the natural or usual treatments (including persistent E.F.T.) or it doesn’t. My comments are to encourage those dealing with moderate or severe depression to do whatever it takes to get better, regardless of ideology.

You Move To Family Issues, Relationships And Past Problems

If these pose more of a problem than the traumatic event, then the work will be more complex and sometimes require a different approach. No one technique can solve every problem, which is why E.F.T. integrates so well with many modalities of help. E.F.T. can also be used before, during or after any helping work, by the client seeing a therapist not trained in E.F.T. I have found that using E.F.T. in general counseling and psychotherapy work has given me cause for optimism—and changed my expectations for the better.

You Aren’t Sure What Happened To The Problem

Pay attention to the "shifts" to other issues when you are treating what you think is "the big one"; often the new issue has roots that are more relevant, even if strange, and when you return to check the "problem" it may be greatly reduced.

Once I worked with a man who had P.T.S.D. that was so severe he was reluctant even at the beginning of his treatment session to tell me what had happened. Because he felt intense discomfort in his stomach area, we tapped for nearly an hour on all those body feelings—following each one. I asked him to come again for his treatment but at the next session he discovered that, for the first time, he could think of his incident without distress. The bodywork had “shifted” the psychological distress (even so we did more tapping on the worry that the problem could in some way recur). When this kind of shift does occur you may have the frustration of not “knowing” what the exact issue has been. Considering the practical relief for the client in this situation, that frustration passes.

Getting Better “Too Quickly”

There can be a ‘lag’ between losing the intensity of the traumatic memory and integrating the result into your life. There is an absence of something but the person is not sure how to be (a kind of cognitive catch-up is required). Despite positive expectations the mind can also be judgemental about a quick result, in that it was ‘too easy’ or should have been achieved before. Here the therapist can use the time and space of the session to help integrate the processing of what happened with some orientation for the future.

Personal Work & Growth With E.F.T.

Traumatic experience serves to put us and keep us in a very contracted state, with poor emotional equilibrium. After recovery we must find the meaning of what happened. I note that most biographies of people who made a difference to the world describe the individual’s life-changing events in detail—and these events are almost invariably setbacks or misfortunes or tragedies.

We must eventually deal with the blame and lack of forgiveness we all have about the unfairness and harshness of this world, and this is very personal for us. Potentially we have all behaviours within us, and we are all potential perpetrators or victims. Or not.

According to John Demartini (“Count Your Blessings”), forgiveness and blame are illusions in any case, because it means we are not balanced in our understanding of the advantages and drawbacks (what he calls the “true meaning”) of what happened to us following the traumatic situation. When we achieve this balance, forgiveness becomes only a concept. He suggests that forgiveness does require our prior judging, whereas accepting the truth requires no forgiveness, and that we must go beyond blame and forgiveness in order to step into unconditional love. This does take specific work on our negative beliefs and misunderstandings about the world, that hold us back.

Eckhart Tolle in “The Power Of Now” suggests that our surrendering to what is (here, the fact that a trauma has occurred and changed us for the worse) will transform us, through losing our attachment to our judging mind, and coming to a deep inner balance of acceptance. Under our sadness we feel that stillness and peace.

I have found that E.F.T. as meridian stimulation, when coupled with the intention of the helper, and using healing techniques, brings a harmonizing and balancing power into making these concepts real—and achievable—for ordinary people over time.

Using E.F.T. for personal healing is really work on our spiritual path toward self-acceptance, however we understand those concepts. Life is for expansion and expression.

The Last Word

"Such a (healing) gift must come from God...” (grateful client experiencing E.F.T. for the first time)

Money Issues and EFT

by Lois Keay-Smith

(Lois attended one of our Advanced EFT workshops in Perth and has gone on to achieve excellent results for herself and her clients since integrating EFT into her approach. The excellent distinctions Lois offers in this article should help you on your own road to financial freedom and freedom from financial worries.)

"Money ranks with love as man's greatest source of joy and with death as his greatest source of anxiety." John Kenneth Galbraith

Money...finances...investments. These words alone can often elicit a strong response in a person. Oddly enough, this state is reserved not only for those who feel they lack money or wealth. Wealth is relative - what is a pittance to one person may be a fortune to another. Generally, what I have found is that those who don't have much money are anxious to gain more, and those who have accumulated wealth are worried about losing it!

Often, just thinking about the current state of your finances, such as your net-worth (assets minus liabilities), credit card balances or yet-to-be-filed tax returns can elicit a response to start your tapping sequence on.

The means by which we make our income can also elicit negative emotions. Over six months ago I had a problem about choosing whether to reduce my hours of part-time employment, in order to have more time to devote to building my consultancy business. Whenever I came to thinking or talking about forgoing part of my steady income, I would get a feeling in my gut, which I would rate on the scale of a 6-7 in intensity.

At first I started to tap on the sensation I was experiencing, which reduced it's intensity, and then proceeded to identify some core issues surrounding these anxious feelings:

"I would be putting my family in a financially precarious position. I shouldn't do this now, when there are bills to pay (when are there not ???)"
Even though I am irresponsible, I deeply and completely accept myself.
Even though I worry that I'm putting us in the poor house...
Even though I am creating financial stress for our family...
Even though I am being selfish...

After a number of rounds of tapping, I was able to reduce the anxiety level down to 1. I continue tapping as issues arise from time to time, but am much calmer and I've made the decision to reduce my employed hours and devote that time to my business. I now feel excitement, rather than trepidation, when I think of my work, income and planning my next steps.

(Six months on.... there have certainly been testing times, anxious moments, and at times, cash shortages. Yet with the use of EFT, these feelings subsided, allowing me to focus on positive actions and subsequent successes. A spin-off was that my self-employed husband saw the benefits in using EFT himself too. The use of The Cash Catcher (see below) also helped me to manage my cash resources during this time. Using this tool together with EFT to handle the emotional issues that arose proved to be a powerful combination.)

Some of the statements that I have found are commonly evoked when people are faced with money issues are:

Even though I should have $000's at this stage of my life, I fully and completely accept myself.
Even though I am a financial failure...
Even though I never have enough to pay my bills...
Even though I'm no good with money...
Even though I think that rich people are bad people...
Even though wanting more money is greedy...
Even though I am hopeless with finances...
Even though I am stupid when it comes to money...
Even though I spend more than I earn...

Think through some episodes from your past that involved money. It may have been shame at standing at the cash register being told that your credit card has "insufficient funds", or even being caught with your fingers in the till (or Dad's wallet).

You can begin by tapping on the feelings that come up as you remember the incidents in your life, using Gary Craig's "Run the Movie" technique (www.emofree.com).

Women's Money Issues

"Money, money, money... it's a rich man's world", ABBA

Through my work in teaching finance and investment to both men and women, I have found some profound gender differences. In particular, many women hold a strong belief in their innate inability to handle and understand finances.

Beliefs about money - earning it, spending it, saving and investing it, start early in life and are usually learned from our parents and siblings. Perhaps our love had been bought with money from an absent father. Or we have been raised to equate money with something unfeminine, even dirty.

Here are some additional examples of statements to do a sequence of tapping on, which may especially resonate with women.

Even though I am stupid when it comes to finances...
Even though I am waiting to be rescued...
Even though I am intimidated by financial talk...
Even though I hate anything to do with finances...
Even though I am not responsible with money...
Even though I spend all my money on (shoes, clothes...)...
Even though I want to be taken care of...
Even though I am scared of being poor...
Even though I am scared of making a mistake...
Even though I shouldn't have to do this myself...
Even though I don't deserve to have wealth...
Even though I won't be accepted if I have money...

I'm sure you can add some more of your own - get tapping on those too!

In Praise Of Continual Tapping

by Dr David Lake

This post is about a small discovery that may be of interest to users of EFT. It is based on a clinical observation, but since the essence of acupuncture is continual point stimulation, it may be a useful bridge between acupuncture and acupressure. In the same way that the 7-point shortcut EFT sequence is generally useful, I have found that continual tapping on EFT points brings further benefits. .

During several years of using EFT sequences to treat trauma clients, I came to the idea that the more sequences you could initiate in a session, the more thorough the result—assuming of course that you are using such wonderful techniques as “Tell The Story” (which is available on the EFT website), and working with the body feelings as much as possible, in an appropriate framework of rapport, caring and respect.

I thought: “Why stop when you’re on a good thing?” From there it was a simple step to asking the client to tap on EFT points whenever they were telling me of their reactions to the EFT sequences, or when they felt intense, or had insights spontaneously in the session. In this way, the majority of the session was filled with point stimulation. Because a trauma treatment assumes that the problem is tuned in quite strongly, I think the good results I noticed right away were as a result of the opportunity to “do” more. So often in difficult work there is a temptation to process what has happened and to “think” more together. Continual tapping bypasses this thinking to a degree, or postpones it to a later time.

Then I began to use it for everything, not just trauma.

I found this addition to my technique quite naturalistic. “Just tap on the little finger point with your thumb while you tell me more about what you’re thinking now”. (Thanks Larry Nims for the one-handed demonstration in February 1998). And you can vary the points—as Gary Craig likes to do for the receiver when he is the helper—except that the person taps for themselves. If you like, you can use points that you have noticed have a resonance for that person, or were the site of an emotional shift (sighing, yawning, relaxing) while working with formal EFT sequences.

If there are two people working then the helper should tap too—passive practice. We do this because we want to stay relaxed, and to model and mirror the points for the receiver, and to avoid being hurt by the content of what may come up in the session. In that sense we also do regular tapping—and I do a lot of continual tapping myself if I am hearing, and resonating with, upsetting material. The subtle and ongoing personal effects of EFT—like the “generalizing effect” — become apparent very quickly like this.

Now in my practice I use continual tapping for another reason. Using EFT, we preach persistence, and for a good reason. It is likely to lead toward the point of “critical mass” for shifting the problem in emotional consciousness. I find that continual tapping facilitates that effort. You know you are doing good work.

I also teach focus. Additional tapping—when the problem is “attuned” by way of being intense—brings disproportional relief even if we don’t then know exactly the nature of the foundations of the problem. Those insights come later, following the relief. Continual tapping supports that focus in itself.

I use it myself whenever I am below par, or in a contracted state, and can’t think clearly. This “awareness” in EFT that arises during healing some call the ‘wisdom of the body’.

A non-conceptual awareness, just “being”.

“The peace that passes all understanding”.

Tapping in Public

By Steve Wells

One of the most frequently asked questions at our workshops and by our clients is - What happens if my problem occurs when I am out in public! Obviously most people are going to feel nervous about tapping on points on their face and body out in public as this looks rather strange. And that can be an issue because many of our emotional problems actually occur when we are in public places.

I remember way back in February 1998 after Gary's Ultimate Therapist Workshop sitting in a San Francisco café tapping away on the EFT points after a 1-hour bus ride sitting next to a woman with strong perfume had left me with a severe headache. Dr. David Lake sat next to me, tapping along. A street beggar came along, took one look at us, and gave us a wide berth! Although the headache went away, and the petrochemical sensitivity has also almost totally dissipated since that time, that incident reminded me how strange the tapping process can appear to members of the general public.

Over the years we have come up with the following advice if you have a problem that occurs in public places, or if you find yourself in a public place needing to tap.

1. Tap before you go - Anticipate / Prepare / Prevent.
Obviously the best outcome is to not have to have your problem come up in the public space at all. This means if you have a problem such as anxiety that is likely to be provoked by being in a public situation, the best thing to do is to think about all the situations where the anxiety might occur ahead of time and tap whilst focusing on those possibilities. At the very least this can often reduce the intensity of the emotion if it does happen, to a more manageable level. If you are able to get to the point where you can think about being in the situation (i.e. speaking in public) and thinking about it doesn't produce any emotion, there is a good chance that when you go out there either the emotion won't occur or it will be at a lesser level.

2. Tap "as you go".
Let's say you have a fear of public speaking and you have to give a speech at your friend's wedding. During the days leading up to the event you will have tapped whilst imagining yourself at the wedding reception giving the speech, you will have tried to identify all the various aspects of speaking in public that might provoke your fear and applied tapping to them, and you would have applied tapping to emotionally intense past speaking events. As you get ready to attend the event and on the way to the event you can also tap. We encourage our clients to tap when they are in the car when stopped at a red light or stop sign. As long as your focus is on the road and at least one hand is on the steering wheel you can also tap on some of the points as you drive along.

3. Excuse yourself...
If it's possible you can excuse yourself from the situation and go off somewhere private to do some tapping. This may mean for example dashing to the loo (toilet) just before your speech and getting in a few rounds of tapping. Usually this will be sufficient to reduce your anxiety to a more manageable level.

4. Touching or rubbing the points.
If you have done steps 1-3 and you still have anxiety when you get into the situation, or your anxiety arises "out of the blue" whilst out in public, you can try just lightly touching or rubbing on some of the points. Often this can be done quite unobtrusively and a few light rubs on selected points can take the edge off the anxiety so that you can function in the situation. If you have done a lot of EFT or SET at home, often just rubbing on the first point in the sequence can initiate a significant shift in intensity.

5. Your favourite point.
After you have been tapping for a while it is common to identify a favourite point which produces quite large shifts for you. For me it is the side of eye point. Often, instead of needing to do a full sequence of tapping, I can just tap a few times on this point and produce a major shift in intensity. Once you have identified a point such as this it can be quite handy if you have only a few seconds before you have to perform in public to just tap a few times on that point before you go on stage, or when out in public to just lightly rub the point in a non-obvious way.

6. The finger points.
The finger points can be tapped under the table or behind your back, however the best way we have found to do this is to use the thumb of the same hand to tap on the finger points of that hand. This process, which was first introduced by Dr. David Lake as "Continual Tapping" can be done quite easily out in public and is very unobtrusive. It can also be done under the table or behind the back without being noticed. Even when done publicly most people don't pay much attention to it. Once on an aeroplane I noticed the gentleman next to me absently tapping on these points - and he didn't even know EFT! A golfer I worked with found she could just tap on these points after a bad shot and reduce her tension prior to the next shot.

7. Imagine the tapping.
It is also possible to get a significant reduction in intensity just "imagining" that you are tapping on the points. In one of our workshops a woman overcame her life-long spider phobia just imagining that she was tapping on the points, with no physical tapping at all! It seems strange to many people that this can work but our experience is that at least 80% of people can get a result without needing any further instruction than what I have told you right here! Try it and see. You may be surprised. It is easy to believe that we can point a remote control at a television to get it to turn on, why should it be surprising that we can use our own intention to produce a result in our own mind-body?
