<b><span style="font-size: large;">EFT: The Basics</span></b></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />1) The set-up (the set-up is optional. I often
skip it.): "Even though I'm upset/sad/angry about _________________, I
deeply and completely accept myself." Recite the set-up three times
while tapping the karate chop points together. <br /><br />2) Tapping
through the points: Go through the tapping sequence two times, while
repeating your tapping statement at each point: "I'm upset because
______________." When you've done the sequence twice, evaluate how you
feel. If the issue or pain is still present, go through another full
round of the set-up and tapping, and/or move to another aspect of the
same issue. <br /><br />3) To find another aspect of the same issue, just
go with how you're feeling. Helpful questions to determine your next
tapping statement are: <br /><br />What am I experiencing in relation to this issue/symptom now?<br /><br />What thoughts and feelings are coming to me about this now?<br /><br />If this symptom/issue had a color, what would it be? Then tap on that. For example: "This gray sadness in my belly."<br /><br />If
this issue or symptom had something to say to me, what would it be?
Then tap on that. For example: "Even though this pain in my hand is
saying 'I can't do this anymore', I deeply and completely accept
myself."<br /> <br /><b>Tapping Points</b><br />eyebrow<br />corner of the eye<br />beneath the eye<br />beneath the nose<br />chin<br />collar bone<br />beneath the arms<br />karate chop point<br />liver point (about 2 inches beneath the nipples/breasts)<br />heart (sternum) and crown of the head</span><div>

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">With Halloween fast approaching, there seems to be a monster, ghost, or goblin around every corner. Nearly every store window is filled with them, and many homes are decorated with creepy things designed to make even adults shudder with fear. What better time than now, when we're surrounded by countless frights, to use EFT to face our fears, and not just face them, but tap them away?</span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">What are you afraid of? Many people are, understandably, afraid of death. Others are more frightened by the prospect of a loved one dying (that's my biggest fear). Some people are afraid of buttons. (For you word-nerds out there, the name of that fear is koumpounophobia.) In fact, the list of fears and phobias is nearly as long as the list of things there are in the world. According to the Huffington Post, these are the top ten most common fears:</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">10) Being in a crowd</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">9) Thunder and lightning</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">8) Water/drowning</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">7) Blood/injury/injections</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">6) Flying</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">5) Small enclosed spaces (claustrophobia)</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">4) Fear of public places (agoraphobia)</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">3) Heights</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">2) Animals (including snakes, spiders, dogs, and others)</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">1) People (this includes the fear of public speaking)</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Whether it's death, flying, public speaking, or buttons that scares you, you can release your fear with EFT.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">There are many ways to go about this. Depending on what the fear is and what caused it will largely determine how you and/or your EFT practitioner approach it. When I'm working with a client on a fear or phobia, I usually begin at the beginning.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">For example, many years ago I had a client who came to me for a severe water phobia. She had had this phobia for over twenty years, ever since escaping from Vietnam in a small boat filled with 30 other refugees. On the first day of their voyage, they lost their motor. Without it, they were left floating, adrift at sea, for over a month. They had barely enough water and rice to survive, and this was strictly rationed out in tiny portions. Finally, after weeks of near starvation, exposure to the elements, and terrifying nights surrounded by nothing but black water, they were rescued.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Because my client knew when and why her fear of water had begun, my approach to helping her release it was very straightforward. All I had to do was have her tell me the story of what happened, listen for the parts that were clearly the most traumatic, and tap those out until they were neutral. It took one session.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The next time I saw this client, she showed me photos of herself joyfully playing in and near water. In one, she was sitting in a small boat, with her feet dangling over the edge, in another she was wading into small waves on a beautiful beach, and in the last one she showed me, she was parasailing. She had no more fear of water, and felt as free to enjoy it as she had as a child, before the harrowing experiences she had at sea.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Other fears and phobias are not so easy to crack. This is because sometimes people don't know why they're afraid of something. In these cases, you and/or your EFT practitioner may need to do a bit of detective work.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">One place to start is with this tapping statement: "I'm afraid of _____________ and I don't know why."</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">As you repeat this statement while you or your practitioner taps through the points, more than likely some memory or inkling about the fear will begin to surface. It may not even make sense to you, but whatever it is, go with it.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">For example, an image of someone's face may come to you, and you may feel that that is somehow related to your fear. In that case, you would then create a tapping statement out of that. Something like, "My fear of ____________ reminds me of ____________ and I don't know why." </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">If you keep on tapping on the fear and whatever comes to you about it, your subconscious mind will very reliably deliver up the next thing to tap on. It's like tapping on one aspect of the fear peels it away, which reveals the one beneath it (think of the onion metaphor). Before long, you'll be free of your fear, and it will no longer be able to affect you. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">As always, the thing to remember about EFT is that when you're tapping about something that is in the past (like my client's experience with being adrift at sea for over a month), once you release it, it's gone for good. If you're tapping about something that is any ongoing situation, for example, having cancer and being afraid that you will die from it, you may find that the fear returns.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">You may have heard me describe this as being like a glass of water. Imagine that the glass is filled to the top. In this case, we'll call that water "Trauma from being bitten by a dog." Once all that trauma has been released with EFT, this metaphorical glass of water is empty, and it's empty for good, because the event is in the past.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">However, if you are tapping on a glass of water that we'll call "Having cancer," once it's empty, you will be free of the fear, but since you still have cancer, the fear may come back. In this case though, the glass you emptied is now only partially full, and thus will feel less intense, and will take less tapping to empty it. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Like grief and trauma, fears are no match for the magic of EFT. Can you imagine your life without the fear that holds you back, keeps you up at night, and turns your belly into a roiling cauldron of dread? Thanks to the gentle power of tapping, you don't have to imagine, because before you know it, you'll be free.</span></span><br />

<span class="size14 TimesRoman14" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman', adobe-times, Times; font-size: large; line-height: 20px; min-height: 20px;">As is the case with all tapping scripts, these statements can be used as is, or modified in any way that makes them resonate more fully with your experience. Also, you may notice that when you start tapping on one of these statements, thoughts and feelings will arise that you can then turn into new tapping statements, which will then give rise to still more thoughts and feelings, which you can use to create additional tapping statements, and so on. I call this following the thread, and it’s a very efficient way to heal and release a lot of painful feelings in a short amount of time, bringing you both peace and clarity about whatever it is that's causing you to suffer.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">As is the case with all of my tapping scripts, the statements below can be used as is, or modified in any way that makes them resonate more fully with your experience. Also, you may notice that when you start tapping on one of these statements, thoughts and feelings will arise that you can then use as new tapping statements, which will then give rise to still more thoughts and feelings, which you can use to create additional tapping statements, and so on. I call this following the thread, and it’s a very efficient way to heal and release a lot of painful feelings in a short amount of time.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<div class="font_8" style="border: 0px; color: #636160; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">A tapping script is a list of statements you can use when you're giving yourself an EFT </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">session. One of the things I hear the most often from my clients is that when they're </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">tapping on their own between sessions with me (which is optional, not required!), they don't know what to say. That's </span><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">why tapping scripts can be so helpful. When you're using a script, just read it over, and </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">notice how each statement makes you feel. Does the statement have an emotional charge </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">for you? Do you feel sad, distressed, angry, or hurt when you read it? If so, that's a good </span><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">statement for you to tap on, because it brings up a part of you that is hurt and in need of </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">healing. </span></div>
<div class="font_8" style="border: 0px; color: #636160; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="font_8" style="border: 0px; color: #636160; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When you're using a tapping script, you don't have to use all of the statements that feel </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">charged for you. Just use the ones you feel drawn to. When you've tapped that one down </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">to zero or near zero, move on to another statement. You can use another statement from the script, or you can use a statement that may have come to you while you were tapping out a previous statement. Just go with what feels right to you, and remember that there is no wrong way to do it. Take it easy, be gentle with yourself, and trust the process. As long as you are focused on something that is painful to you while you are tapping, healing is taking place. </span></div>

<div class="font_8" style="border: 0px; color: #636160; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The statements in the scripts offered here can be used as is, or modified in any way that makes them resonate more fully with your experience. You may notice that when you start tapping on these statements, thoughts and feelings will arise that you can then turn into new tapping statements, which will then give rise to still more thoughts and feelings, which you can use to create additional tapping statements, and so on. I call this following the thread, and it’s a very efficient way to heal and release a lot of painful feelings in a short amount of time.</span></div>

Just create a tapping statement out of the incident and injury, and tap until the pain, redness, swelling, brusing, and/or blistering begins to subside. I've used it successfully for emerging black eyes (and other large bruises), bee stings, deep cuts (pain stopped and cuts healed very quickly, within hours rather than days), burns, poison oak (itching and inflammation subsides while tapping), sprains, broken bones (pain relief after doctor visit), and more. I've seen burn blisters, bruises, and severe pain disappear within minutes. </span></span></div>

After we finished tapping, she removed the bandage to show me the cuts, and they had healed so much that she had trouble finding them. Amazing, but true. We were both completely blown away.</span></span></div>

Whatever comes as an answer to this question can be used as your next tapping statement. For example: "I can't believe she lied to me all those months."</span></span></span></div>

Let your intuition guide you about whether to stick with the previous statement or move onto the new one. Remember, you can always save the new statement for later. Likewise, you can always return to a statement that you've moved on from.</span></span></span></div>

You'll notice as you tap, if you hadn't already noticed it before, that the memory you chose to work on, in all likelihood, is really a whole collection of related memories, all of which fit under the umbrella of your title memory. The umbrella in the example here is "My girlfriend cheated on me." Other examples might be: "Car accident," "Miscarriage," "Getting divorced." </span></span></span></div>

So the beginning of the thread in this example is whatever the name of your memory is, and once you start tapping that out, it will lead you to the next aspect of the memory that's ready to be released. Related memories and feelings will pop up, like, in this example, the lies that were told. Or sometimes it's a sensory memory, like the smell of a certain food that was cooking when the infidelity was discovered, or a song that was playing. As these appear, just tap them out until they're neutral. Soon you will have found and released every aspect of the painful memory, and it will no longer be painful, it will just be a memory, and you will be at peace with it.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">One of the things I hear
the most often from people who are new to EFT is that they don't know how to
come up with effective tapping statements. Remember: the way that EFT works is
by focusing on the issue while tapping. The tapping statements
are simply a tool to keep you focused on the issue. One of the easiest ways to
bring your feelings to the surface to be tapped out and released is to look at
a picture of the person you're upset about it. </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So if, for example, you're grieving the loss
of your husband, look at a picture of him and notice how you feel.
What thoughts and feelings arise as you look at his face? Use whatever answers
come to you in response to that question as tapping statements. For example:
"When I look at his face, I feel so sad that he's gone. I can't believe
I'll never get to see him or laugh with him again. I'm so sad that he won't get
to see our kids grow up. I'm so sad that our kids lost their dad."</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">As you continue to look
at the picture, ask yourself, "What do I miss the most about this
person?" Then turn your answer to this question into tapping statements.
If you lost your husband, looking a picture of him might bring up thoughts and
feelings like: "I really miss the way he looked at me. No one will ever
love me like that again. We were supposed to grow old together. I'll never get
over this." Just take each of these, one by one, and tap them
through. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Grief doesn't have to
last forever, though it's a common belief that it does and should. Grief is
about mourning what we've lost, and releasing our attachment to it, not
carrying the pain of that loss for the rest of our lives. I think that the
reason for this widely held belief about the permanency of grief is that more
often than not, it gets stuck in the body, and needs some way to be released.
That's why EFT is so effective in healing grief. It unlocks the body, where the
pain is stored, and clears it out. It is so simple, gentle, and quick. Grief
that has been carried for decades can be released in one session, permanently.
Poof!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">While you're looking at a
picture of your lost loved one, keep in mind that you can use the set-up where
you feel it's necessary or helpful, or tap without it. Usually, though using a
set-up statement is often very healing in and of itself, the tapping works just
fine without it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

EFT to release your feelings of loss and sadness, you'll notice that looking at
pictures of that person will feel lighter and lighter. The pain of grief will
no longer overshadow your love for this person, and the gratitude you feel for
having had them in your life. Until you reach a point where you really feel
free of emotional pain when you think about the person you lost, you can use
pictures as a kind of a litmus test to let you know where you are in your
grieving process. Do you feel at peace when you look at this person? Or do
feelings of sadness, anger, regret, or guilt come up? If painful emotions like
these do arise, just tap them out. </span></div>

time you tap some of your grief away, it's like pouring out a little of the

of grief will be empty.</span><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

However, oftentimes, when people set out to use EFT on their own, they just tap for a few minutes here and there when they're stressed-out, without giving themselves what they need to really go in-depth and get to the root of the issues that are causing them to suffer. Here are five things to ensure that the time you spend tapping is as healing as possible.</span></span></div>

When it's time to tap, make sure you have a comfortable place to sit or lie down where you won't be interrupted. Treat this time as you would any other appointment. In other words, this time is set aside for a certain purpose, and you are not available for anything else. Since this is an appointment with yourself, you don't have to schedule it ahead of time (though that wouldn't be a bad idea), but in every other regard, treat it as you would your calendared commitments.</span></span></div>

This is your time to heal. Would you want phones ringing (or any interruptions) while you were in a session with an EFT practitioner? The last thing you need when you're halfway through tapping out an EFT breakthrough is for your phone to ring.</span></span></div>

If you're really not a crier, meaning there is absolutely no chance you'll cry during your session, then skip this part, but if there's any possibility that tears will flow as you're tapping, best to be prepared so that you don't have to stop the flow of your session to get up for tissues.</span></span></div>

The body uses a lot of water during and after an EFT session, and the tapping isn't as effective if you're dehydrated, so be sure to drink a bit before you start and have some on hand if you get thirsty during the session. Almost all of my clients get thirsty during their sessions, and having water at the ready ensures that the tapping will be effective and the session will be as uninterrupted as possible.</span></span></div>

You can do more than 30 if you want, but it's not necessary. You'll be amazed by how much you can clear in a half-hour. If you don't want to do 30 minutes, do 20. Less than that could put you in the suboptimal position of your timer going off just when you feel like you've really gotten to a deep place with your tapping.</span></span></div>

If you do this once a week, after one month, you will be amazed by how much you have healed and transformed in such a short time. And if you're really serious about this, give it a year, and watch the miracles unfold!</span></span></div>

<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; color: #666666; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: large;">One of the best ways to identify parts of ourselves that need healing is to work with wishes and wants. Let's say you're giving yourself a session about your relationship with your partner. You're upset about a fight that you had, and want to clear out as much painful emotion and as many limiting beliefs as possible, but you're feeling stuck about exactly what to tap on. Ask yourself this: "If I could have anything in my relationship with my partner, what would it be? What do I WISH would happen here?" Be sure to allow yourself the inner spaciousness to receive answers that you think are impossible. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; color: #5f5e5d; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; color: #5f5e5d; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; color: #666666; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: large;">Remember, EFT is not about what's possible, and it's not about facts, it's about your <a href="http://www.heatherambler.com/#!The-Power-of-Doing-EFT-on-Wishes-and-Wants/cu4x/5533d3cf0cf23d0164358612" target="_blank">emotional truth</a>, and if that truth hurts, tapping it out. So if your emotional truth is: "I wish my wife would appreciate how hard I work to support our family" and when you say that out loud (or just think it), you experience an emotional charge, then that is a good statement for you to tap on. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; color: #5f5e5d; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">

So once you've tapped out the first statement about wishing she would appreciate you down to zero or close to zero, if the similar statement "She'll never appreciate how hard I work..." stil has a charge to it, then tap on that next. Most likely, the session will continue to unfold organically like that, with one statement naturally leading to another and then another. However, if it doesn't and you find yourself getting stuck, just ask yourself the same question: What do I wish would happen here? </span></span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; color: #5f5e5d; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">

Then notice the thread that emerges when the answers to those questions arise within you, and follow it until you feel that you feel that the issue you're tapping on is totally healed, or until you've tapped out and healed as much as you can in the time you've allotted yourself for the session.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; color: #5f5e5d; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">

For example, if you're working to heal the from the childhood trauma of your parents splitting up, ask yourself: "What do I wish had happened in this situation?" Perhaps your answer would be: "I wish my parents had never gotten a divorce", or "I wish my parents had had a happy marriage." Then you notice how you feel when you say or think these statements, and if it hurts, tap on it until it doesn't hurt anymore.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; color: #666666; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: large;">An important thing to note is that we're not tapping on wishes and wants to make them go away, we're tapping on them because they hurt. So after you tap down a "wish statement" to neutral or nearly neutral, you may still have that wish, only it won't hurt anymore when you think about it. Again, this is all about your emotional truth, and your healing. Wishes and wants are wonderful things, and they're even more wonderful when they're not causing pain inside you!</span></span></span></div>

We all have wishes and wants inside us, and identifying them can be a very effective way to discover the parts of ourselves that are hurting and ready to be healed.</span></span></span></div>

Those of us who have been tapping for awhile can attest to this frustrating fact. The thing is, even though tapping is so powerful, a lot of the times when we need it most, we don't do it. We tell ourselves we're too busy to tap right now, or we pretend the intense pain or stress we're feeling is no big deal, or, my personal favorite: "It won't help." </span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

And what I notice is that I only think that about my own stuff. No matter what issue a client comes to me with, no matter how violent or traumatic or horrific the experience was that they want to heal from, I feel confident that by the end of the session, that person will be permanently free from a good portion of it, if not all of it. </span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

Why bother?" Why do I only have this thought about my own healing and not that of my clients? What is that? In a word, it's fear. Fear of going into the issue to heal it, when it's easier to avoid it (even though it's still causing you to suffer in the midst of your avoidance. Have you noticed?). Fear of releasing a chunk of our conditioning that we've come to think of as who we are. The ego gets very cagey at this prospect, and pulls all kinds of clever tricks to keep itself intact, unchanging, and forever in charge. </span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

It is so innocent and fearful, thinking that if it can just control everything, it will be able to create some security for itself. And that's okay. That's just what egos do. A few years ago, a client said to me, "This is going to sound really weird, but doing EFT on my childhood makes me feel like I'm erasing myself. I realize that that sounds bad, but it's not. It's really, really good." I wholeheartedly agree with her. It is good! But let's face it, if there's one thing the ego doesn't want, it's to be erased! </span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

One of the things I love most about EFT is the way it allows you to meet yourself exactly where you are. So just start tapping the karate chop point and say to your sweet, hurting, frightened self: "Even though I don't want to tap on this issue (name whatever the issue is), I'm doing the best I can, and I deserve love." And, "Even though I know tapping on this issue won't help, so there's no reason to bother even trying, I'm doing the best I can, and I deserve love." And, "Even though I know there is no way that EFT will heal this issue--I've had it for too long, it's too big, it will never heal, and I will never change, I deeply and completely accept myself." </span></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="font_9" style="border: 0px; line-height: normal; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

You'll know when it's time to get more specific, to tap on the heart of the matter, because you'll want to do it—your resistance to tapping on it will be gone. Until then, just work around the edges of your pain, tapping away whatever layers of doubt and resistance you may have. The tapping will release the inner barriers you have to healing your issue, and then, once those have been tapped away, the tapping will release the issue itself. </span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">One of the most powerful ways to use EFT to release anger and hurt feelings about a relationship is to create tapping statements out of what you would like to say to this person, and then tap these statements through until they feel neutral. For example, "Joe, I'm really angry and hurt because I needed you to listen to me, and you ignored me instead." When doing this kind of EFT, allow yourself to give voice to how you're really feeling, even if it sounds petty, mean, or childish. Meet yourself where you are, and tap yourself free from the painful emotions you're carrying about what happened. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">This is a great opportunity to say things that wouldn't be wise or helpful to actually say to the person. Instead, similar to writing a letter that you would never mail, you say out loud, as though you were really speaking to the person, what you are feeling, no matter how accusatory, victimey, or hurtful. Tell it like it is, and tap yourself free! Just be sure to keep tapping through the points as you pour your heart out. Very powerful!<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">You can use this technique with anyone, living or dead. Just think of the person you're feeling badly about, and ask yourself: "How am I feeling about this person? If I could say anything to him/her, with no fear of consequences like hurting them or causing further problems, what would I say?" When the answers to these questions come, start saying them outloud while tapping through the points. Repeat the same statement over and over again until it feels neutral. For example: "I can't believe you did that to me. How could you?" When that one's clear, another one will likely arise in its place, such as: "I really needed you to stand up for me, and you didn't." Just tap that one through, and continue on with each statement that arises until you feel like the session is complete. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">With some relationships, there can be years and years worth of hurt feelings, so just do as much as feels comfortable to you, and then come back to it another day. Remember that whatever you released is gone for good, and though it can seem like an endless amount of "stuff", it's not. But don't take my word for it--just keep tapping, and you'll see for yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

Where to begin? Here's an easy-to-follow bullet-pointed list (who doesn't love bullet points?) to guide you through.</span></span></span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br />
</span></span></span></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Name the memory. For example: My girlfriend cheated on me.</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Give a number between 0 and 10 to the emotional intensity you experience when you feel into this memory</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Now put the memory title into an EFT set-up statement. In this example, it would be, "Even though my girlfriend cheated on me, I deeply and completely accept myself."</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Repeat the set-up statement three times while tapping on the karate chop point (refer to Mona Lisa pic if you don't know where that is).</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Now tap through all the points, repeating at each point the statement without the set-up phrases around it. In this case it would be: "My girlfriend cheated on me."</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Tap through all the points one more time, while repeating the statement at each point. Now you've tapped through the points twice.</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Now ask yourself: What thoughts and feelings are coming to me now? Whatever comes as an answer to this question can be used as your next tapping statement. For example: "I can't believe she lied to me all those months."</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">At this point, you can either continue tapping on the first statement, or take the new statement through the steps you just did on the first statement. Let your intuition guide you about whether to stick with the previous statement or move onto the new one. Remember, you can always save the new statement for later. Likewise, you can always return to a statement that you've moved on from.</span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Just continue on this manner, until the whole subject of "My girlfriend cheated on me" feels neutral, meaning you feel at peace about it. You'll notice as you tap, if you hadn't already realized it before, that the memory you chose to work on, in all likelihood, is really a whole collection of related memories, all of which fit under the umbrella of your title memory. Other examples of memory umbrellas might be: "Car accident," "Miscarriage," "Getting divorced." </span></span></span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br />
</span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Basically, with EFT, if you just follow the thread, it will lead you all the way through the issue (depending on the issue's complexity, this can be done in one tapping session, and sometimes it takes multiple sessions). So the beginning of the thread in this example is whatever the title of your memory is, and once you start tapping that out, it will lead you to the next aspect of that painful memory that's ready to be released. Related memories and feelings will pop up, like, in this example, the lies that were told, or sometimes it's a sensory memory, like the smell of a certain food cooking when the infidelity was discovered. </span></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">As always, be sure to let me know if you get stuck or have questions. heather@heatherambler@com ~ 650.465.4788</span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"> </span></span></span></div>
