Following on from Namaste's helpful and insightful post about using slow eft, also consider what are you getting from having migraines that you feel you couldn't get in any other way e.g. escape from other people's demands, too high expectations of yourself ("so long as I have these migraines I can't possibly be expected ...

For me, forgiveness comes when we can shine the light of love into the dark places of fear, guilt, shame that we carry within us and is a release of judgment which is what, as Ingrid says, keeps us attached to the emotional energy. Rather than forgiveness, I like the energy that comes from acknowledging and accepting the part I played and that ...

 Emotional Freedom is also about being able to let go of the judgments we have about our emotions. As with Gillian's/Gwyneth's tree metaphor, when we stop seeing the stunted trunk of the tree as unnatural and deformed and begin to see the beauty and survival and creativity in it, then we are moving into emotional freedom. There is no ...

 Intention is everything. Find a way to state a positive affirmation about lucid dreaming, tap on that, then pay very particular attention to the "what ifs" and the "buts" that come up as tail enders.

 Gill, whilst I do agree that there are different approaches to working with anxiety, and I often use parts and safety consciousness in my work, I do believe that there is a neat little trap that anxiety lays for us. By focusing in on the anxiety in our quest to identify the part or the underlying core issue, we can so easily become more ...

 Look at where you mostly are now with anxiety and other feelings in your life, then pick something a little further up the emotional scale (which isn't an intensity scale but a measure of your vibration - what you put out through your vibration you attract more of into your life. Thoughts and feelings are just a part of this vibration.) ...

[quote user="kitty"]Boredom is a neutral emotion, whilst fear, worry are negative?[/quote]  Actually dropping the notion of positive and negative is a helpful place to start. All emotions can be seen to be on a spectrum from low vibration to high vibration. This has been charted by Abraham-Hicks into an Emotional Vibrational Scale. ...

 Congratulations on your successes with this issue - you're doing great work. Regarding tapping and not tapping - it's always good to remember that nothing lasts forever. The place of peace you come to after shifting a big issue doesn't last - it grows! Similarly the place of feeling stuck or stagnant or unfocused doesn't ...
