Re: The Caregiver's Manual

Hello Soobie,

I empathize with your post, as I have been through similar phases myself. I know how much effort it takes to keep working on yourself, so I applaud your strength and persistence. Sylvia and Marie's posts are so warm, useful and supportive, that I am sure not only you, but the many others who read this thread are encouraged to continue working on their challenges.

Your statement " I was responsible for becoming depressed because I was always looking at the bright side and I suppressed my negative feelings." caught my attention.

Caregivers frequently lack the strength, energy and time to allow themselves the liberty of fully experiencing and venting their own emotions. Perhaps the following set up statements would be helpful:

"Even though I have been suppressing all my negative feelings, I give myself permission to acknowledge my sadness now"

"Even though I have been too scared to accept the depth of my sadness and fears, I am safe and can cope now"

"Even though I have been pretending to be happy, it is safe to relax and permit myself real happiness."

The Choices Method may be most suitable for the above, that is 3 short-cut rounds for each set up, the first using a negative reminder phrase, the second the positive reminder phrase and the last using alternate negative and positive reminder phrases.

Baerbel Froehlin's article- "Love that about myself" in the latest newsletter is also likely to help.

I know it must look like a huge forest from your perspective, but please keep going "one tree at a time"!

Best Wishes,

Sangeeta

Sangeeta,

Thank you so much for sharing, For anyone who receives their Forum messages in their e-mail, here is the connection

http://www.soulspeakindia.com/index.php?pr=Downloads

Both, the Caregiver's Manual and the Patient's Manual are excellent, well thought out, and cover a wealth of detail. Please, everyone take the time to read and save them to your files.

As, I read the Caregiver Manual, there are so many instances EFT is applicable to the scenerio, maybe, if you added PR Statements, Sangeeta, Gary would post in his newsletter and archives.

I would like your permission to post to EFT-Cancer-Support-Study-Group@YahooGroups.com in my files and to forward the information to participants who submit a Cancer Survey. Thank you again for sharing this wealth of knowledge from your experience.

Blessings,

Sylvia

The Caregiver's Manual

Sangeeta — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 08:39:45 GMT

Hello everyone,

Based on my many years experience as a caregiver, I have written two books for chronic disease management - "It's Your Life - A Practical Handbook for Chronic Ailments" and "The Caregiver's Manual". These are freely available at my website - www.soulspeakindia.com . While these books were written before I started practising EFT, the highlighted topics may provide good guidance for issues that the patient and caregiver would need tapping on.

Frequently, both are exhausted. Daily tapping, on a few of the issues listed in these books, could be done without taking too much trouble in identifying the problems.

I would be happy to help anyone with framing their setups, if so required.

I notice that while there are frequently a large number of viewers on the forums and subscribers to the EFT newsletter, a relatively less number of people appear to post on these boards. I would like to urge anyone reading this to actively participate and avail of the great support that is available in these forums. You can retain your anonymity and yet find people who are or have been in similar situations. Such interaction may provide invaluable guidance that can bring about a significant improvement in your wellbeing.

Best Wishes,

Sangeeta
