Hoping to contact EFT practitioner who could help me heal acute phimosis issue. Or has anyone been healed of this annoying condition?

Re: But I don't deeply and completely accept myself...

CiaW — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 00:04:36 GMT

I've had some people ask me about the 'setup' and particularly the deeply (love) and completely accept myself part, and why do you say it 3 times, etc?

I am so used to doing it and seeing it done on the DVD's, reading it in articles, etc. that I just did it and explained the PR part of it. Then I decided to look at the book by Roger Callahan that got me into EFT, Tapping the Healer Within. You know what? For treating PR, all he has someone do if the TFT algorithm doesn't work is tap the KC point 5 or 7 times. No affirmation or anything.

So, I decided to try doing the 'setup' differently -- tap the KC point 5-7 times while stating the issue or emotion and then add an affirmation or choice statement, if you want or it seems appropriate. (i.e. I have a fearful feeling in this memory and it doesn't feel good) In the last 2 weeks since I decided to try it, it's worked fine for me personally and another practitioner I mentioned it to tried it, worked fine for her. And I've tried it with 3 or 4 clients and it's worked fine. Of course starting off with 'even though I have this issue...' has become such a habit that it's a little trickier to come up with the setup statement.

It also saves a little bit of time during each round, and it does away with the issue of self-acceptance or not. I think I'm going to change my tapping points / instructions on my website, even. Of course doing away with that part of the setup might be EFT heresy? Please don't stone me. :-)

Re: Choice statements when addressing the child part?

Mildred — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 00:10:58 GMT

How about

Even though my inner child was never allowed to be a child, I accept myself

Even though as a child I had to be responsible for others, even adults, I accept myself.

Even though my inner child can not let go and be a child, becuase then I won't be able to help someone who needs, me...

Even though it was not safe for me to be a child when I was a child, and even though I was responsible for so much that I never had a true childhood, I choose to release my inner child's burden and allow my inner child the feeling that someone else can take care of things for a while.

Even though I never got to live life as a child but was always playing some kind of adult role, I choose to let the pain of this go.. I choose to recognise that the adults around me were doing the best that they were able, and I did the best I could, saddled as I was with adult responsibilities before I was an adult.

Even though I always played the grown-up role as a child, I choose to let my inner child relax and have some fun.

Hope this take is helpful.

Re: What is Psychological Reversal?

Philip Davis — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 09:44:56 GMT

Hi Harry,

This is how I understand Psychological Reversal (PR)... (or Polarity Reversal)

There are 2 types of PR:

General Polarity Reversal (GPR)

Secondary Benefit Syndrome (SBS) General Polarity Reversal can be thought of as Resistance to changing deeply rooted, negative beliefs and self-sabotaging patterns of behaviour. These patterns are present in all of us to some degree and show up in our Self Talk. Examples:

I never do anything right
I don’t accept myself.
It’s always my fault
Things never work out for me
I am not a good person
I am not lucky
I always expect the worst, that way I am never disappointed
This treatment won’t work, nothing works

Secondary Benefit Syndrome (SBS) - the other type of PR This occurs when the subconscious mind perceives that it is better or safer to keep an issue. It is a common factor in Eating Disorders, Weight Loss Issues, Chronic pain, bad habits, Obsessive/compulsive disorders, some Phobias The Advantages of Keeping a Problem:

Feeling special
Not having to go out and get a job
Using the problem to manipulate others
Identity is linked to the problem – what will the person do if they lose it?
The problem means they can live without taking responsibility for themselves

People experiencing SBS may not acknowledge any improvements to their physical or emotional health, will stop treatment even though they know it has helped or will simply reject any help which is offered. Be aware that this is seldom if ever a conscious choice. Therefore if you suggest this idea to a client they will vigorously deny that they are, at some level, choosing to keep their problem and may well be offended at the suggestion. You must be tactful; it is no use presenting the idea to them in such a way that they are embarrassed and feel blamed.

I hope this helps.

With Blessings and love.

Philip

Re: Can anybody spot something I have missed?

Sounds like you are being very diligent and thorough ....

(Just to state the obvious, if there is no change then wouldn't that mean your client isn't getting past psych reversal? "Even if it is not safe for me to get over this phobia ...... " even if it isn't safe for my family to get over this phobia, ......")

The other thought I have is that when things won't shift, I find hidden family loyalties are often at play. What family secrets are there at work in his family constellation .... who died early, who caused another to die? Often this is at the grandparent level or earlier .... Who was so scared they couldn't move? Doesn't have to be a motorway issue -- just a fear or violence issue.

Good luck with the detective work!

all the best,

Deborah

Re: central nervous system "stuff"

philvt — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 22:58:33 GMT

I stand corrected - 'psychological reversal' is the official clinical term - thank you Chip.

Gary talks about PR - and uses some methods of muscle testing to determine if indeed one is affected by the condition - sometimes having to do with holding one's hand 'palm up' or 'palm down' above one's head - personally I know very little about muscle testing and therefore defer to others on this question - although the argument can be made for both 'polarity' as well as 'psychological' reversal - often the term being compared to batteries placed in an electrical device with the polarity reversed.

The idea of starting with the KC point and the use of the 'sore spot', is to reverse any potentially existing reversal, as is the use of the term 'Even though....'

Hope this sheds some light on an area that does not have a lot of information readily available. I found the case studies brought up under a search for the term helpful, it just seems that there is really no clear cut instruction/information in this area. I found Dr David Lakes information very helpful on this subject.

I also found an article by Lindsay Kenny, Life Coach and Founder of the National Alliance for Emotional Health, on the various types of PR - (She uses Polarity reversal and psychological reversal interchangeably) and refers to GPR as well - the General Polarity Reversal, which I referred to in my earlier post.

There is also this: an older article by Gary Craig titled When EFT appears not to work where he further addresses PR. In fact it is said that PR is second only to dehydration in it's ability to halt EFT progress dead in its tracks.

I hope you find this helpful, and that PR is not much of an issue for you, and that even if it is you will respond rapidly and well to the reversal-reversal.....

Re: Still the Thyroid Cyst has not Vanished!

Mildred — Sun, 27 Jan 2008 05:39:58 GMT

Usually, I muscle check for an energy toxin or food sensitivity by saying, for example,

"Eggs." -Muscle test-should be strong

"Eggs, I want to be healthy" - muscle check should be strong

"Eggs, I want to be sick" - mc should be weak.

If any of these are off, not the way they should be, use the reversal statement and karate chop point and say" Even though I have this sensitivity to eggs, I accept myself (3 times).

Then do a couple rounds of tapping the usual points, saying "Eggs" at each tapping point.

Then think of an emotion or an event associated with eggs in your life and tap up any issues that arise. You may have more reversal statements to tackle as you proceed.

Then test again and repeat if necessary

Mildred.

PS If you don't mc, just treat yourself anyway and perhaps also target other things that may be causing you problems - favorite foods, tea, coffee, spices, etc. I think some of this information is on Gary' web site, and some is in his manual. Sandi Radomski is also a good source of information on energy toxins. Gary's EFT specialty Series Two has a two hour session by Sandi showing an in depth look at energy toxins.

Hi Moschini,

This is brilliant !

I am all into Law of Attraction etc and I have learned form your expriences in this posting and the creative way you tackled your issues with EFT..thank you.

Do you think you could draft a formula for your affrimations and tapping on the ' even though....' No pressure then ?!?

I think you have got something exciting there and it would be great if we could all share it?

And also keep your own research/details of what is happening..anyway, please keep in touch and thank you for sharing and caring

Which is excatly what the EFT Community Forums are about.

Warmest wishes,

Marie

Thank you for the compliment, I remember you were the first to welcome me and offer advice, this makes the compliment even more deeply appreciated!

I made the order form in Word so that I may change the order (lining out the filled items as to not forget my gratitute to the universe and the success of my EFT) When you say draft a formula, would you mean - my goal is a new car...ET I want (name of car) I see myself driving it off the lot? ET I want (name of car) I now have the cash to pay for it? or did you mean other?

If there is a forum for posting files, I don't have access to a FTP site, I'll be glad to send on my template - it's fun to do and as you pointed out, the physical, staring in my face, I can do it piece of paper helps not only with the visualization, reinforces the affirmations it also helps me find the tail-enders. If I'm doing my I have a new car and I hear "yeah right sure you do." I've found my tail-ender.

I hope it works for you and all the others, the one thing that you and all the others who offered advice was KEEP IT SIMPLE, and after I got through the fear (first tap session) of EFT being another therapy that would crash and burn for me and I stopped trying to write it all down and let it all flow I found it less fearful.

I still keep a journal as the EFT progresses since I'm doing the whole forest and finding the trees - it brings up alot of past memory and even physical issues. For example, I realized that one memory was held in my stomach area, I've suffered with IBS and mild colitius all through my life. I now realize there is an emotional connection and while I also realize it may take more than one-week to solve it, I'm well on my way to releasing the issue. When I do that tap, I do feel my stomach muscles tightening as if to say "not letting go can't make me." Well, yes I can and yes I will.

As I have posted (many times) for help, script assistance, moral support and general how-to, I wanted to share a result(s.)

As I have previously mentioned, I am affected by labor issues, leaving me questioning how to pay rent, etc. I went to one agency who said they might be able to help, so while I was awaiting a response I did quiet tapping on my stress and that general sinking feeling that it just isn't going to work out. The woman came back and said they could help with x-amount of dollars which is more than they give but because of the labor issues they raised the amount we were allowed to received. She then referred me to another agency who also understood the issues and between the two my rent was paid 100%, I was also given certificates to the local grocery which allowed me to get the dog food, dairy and other perishables that the local food distribution can't give. It's not that they don't want to but they can't hold perishables and people don't usually give pet items.

I continued my tapping for my "order." I prepared an order form, such as would be in a catalogue, since (for me) I am a visual (vs. aural vs. touch etc) I filled out my order form "Universal Orderform" "Our motto is Your Wish is Our Command" doing a ship to (me) Delivery Method (Universal Choice Express) Comment" All orders shipped immediately, satisfaction guaranteed. (this might be a bit strange for some, but please bear with me.) I did lines of order" I am happy and grateful I am now receiving....doing the first lines that I need now. Next lines that I need within 2 weeks, then 4 weeks and then my one-year goal.

I tap on my abundance issues and my trees/forest which is the greater issue leading to the specific issue, today I got a call completely unexpected from a strike fund saying they were holding a check for me. I have no idea how they got my name and number - my guess is one of the agencies who helped earlier. I have no idea how much, but I am grateful for all I am receiving.

The most important thing in my tapping other than the Even Though....is saying thank you as my last tap, whether it is a positive or negative round. Then I concentrate on my "order form" the middle of which after the order is a list of affirmations, the final one in bold is I am thankful for all I have and for what I am receiving. I even signed it, it is after all a binding contract.

I apologize for the long post, I just wanted to give all who were sending me virtual taps (I felt you there) and those who were unsure of the speed and results. As always your mileage may vary, but you don't always have to have 100% belief though it helps, but as the saying goes "Just Do It."

Thanks again!

Hi Anne,

You may have an energy toxin that is affecting you. Try changing your laundry detergent and or the type of clothes your are wearing. I would eliminate any soaps or detergents in your environment and see if this helps. There is lots of advice with in these forums that may also be relevant. Hang in there
