EFT for Chronic Disease

Written live earlier this morning…

A potential client has just left, stealing two of my office keys, because I declined giving him a massage without payment. He was rude and obnoxious from the start. This to be honest, is not entirely his doing, as he was sold a voucher which was not given to him, and he thought that I could somehow claim it. I explained to him that the last time I gave a massage in good faith, I was resentful and wary for two weeks, and after much chasing of the client, by which time I had spent all what I was due in phone calls and such, I finally got paid and decided not to do that again. The client got, perhaps understandably furious. He was much stronger than me, so my instinct kicked in. I fled the office and said at the door that I was going to call Security to call the Police if he did not leave. I went to call Security, the lift had a slight malfunction, and I ended up back on my floor, only to see him jeer at me as he went in the lift I had just vacated. On entering the office, I found he had stolen the keys.

OK – now I have news that I have just received! The building supervisor has just been and to be honest, these are the figures. I had been meaning to get a spare set cut. The cost of me getting them cut was R35 each, totaling R70. This emergency meant that I had to ask the building supervisor for two sets instead, but because the building owner had a deal with the key shop, it ended up costing me R10 a key, a total of R40, and they also added two key fobs totally free of charge! So I saved R30 by this silly theft.

However, although the savings and the convenience of having a shiny new set of spare keys has really cheered me up, on a scale of 10-0, I am still a 4 in feeling shaken. So I tap…

Setup
“Even though I am shaken and scared, I deeply love and accept myself”
Reminder
“Shaken and scared”

Setup
“Even though clients like him are threatening and scary, I deeply love and accept myself”
Reminder
“The whole (client’s name) experience”

I then tapped as I thought of other courses of action that could have calmed the situation. I tapped for doing my best under the circumstances, how I was warned that this will happen, by others who had it done to them, and that I took a stand on being paid because I have to keep my business going, and how much I loved my business and was not going to see it fail due to giving too much, then I forgave myself for taking a hard stance. I do not know how I will react next time somebody does this, but I want to make sure that I grow my business enough never to have to be in this situation again. I forgave myself again, I forgave the potential client, and I feel at a zero with regards to this incident now. I am still mulling over how I can best handle this situation when it occurs again in the future. It is hard in Cape Town, where people are not given respect for who they are or the work they do but by the material goods they possess. I am sure I will not always get it right, and one day, I will have to actually go as far as calling the police, and I am making peace with that.

When you have a chronic physical condition, anything that either emotionally or physically has a negative impact on you can make the condition worse. EFT is one way of throwing away the emotional rubbish collecting in your system. In the same way that we dispose of our household rubbish regularly for home cleanliness and hygiene, I use EFT to dispose of negative emotions for my optimal physical health. I call an emotion anything that your mind or body says to you, from fear to constricted airways. My health was not always as good as this. Please go back to around 2005 on this blog to get to the worst postings (when I was often bed-ridden, unable to breathe enough to get out of bed), if you are looking for how to tap for those really bad days of health. —

All of today, I have been wanting to spend what I do not have to spend. I wanted:

• An ice-cream when I was not in the least hungry.
• A magazine when I knew there was no way I could find the time to read it.
• Clothes that I simply did not have space for due to moving house and packing.

I was also considering not to place advertising scheduled for tomorrow, which would almost certainly lose me money.

The list goes on, but you get the picture. I wanted to spend, spend, spend and was reticent to make money, for no obvious reason. And then it dawned on me. I am at the start of a new phase in my business well-being. This is where I finally go one step further in moving financially forward since getting smokers lung about 25 years ago. I feel scared. All my muscles are tense. Part of the fear is in case yet again this time, I don’t make it. But that is absurd, because if I spend wisely, I will make it. And even though half my business or more is by referral, I still need to advertise. Of course, it may be that this month’s scheduled advertisement brings me nothing, but that is a risk that needs to be taken. And if I don’t take that risk, then I have to rely almost purely on referrals. I think I am so scared I will fail that I was trying to make myself fail to prevent raising my hopes up, only to be disappointed again. On a scale from 10 to zero, the feeling that I will be disappointed again is a 9. So I am tapping…

Setup
“Even though I am terrified that it is all going to fail, yet again, and I will have egg on my face, yet again, I deeply love and accept myself”
Reminder
“Terrified that it is all going to fail, yet again, and I will have egg on my face, yet again”

It’s down to a 2. So I am now tapping it again.

It is now a near-zero, and I have a plan to safeguard at least half this plan. That really helps.

I am in Week 7 of Runners World beginners training, and I am on track! A couple of days ago, I ran-jogged-ran-jogged along the beach for 30 minutes flat out and was really pleased with myself. If you´re interested, see my account of how I did it here.

Today was the second day of Week 7. I have been avoiding the gym because it was being painted, with some noxious paint fumes all around. But the painting is now over, and I was back. It feels really weird running indoors now. However, I find it useful, because the machine measures my speed, inclination, etc, and has a great timer. Plus, I can use my iPod and the nice expensive headset, which I would not feel comfortable going out with on the road. So anyway, I started on the elliptical trainer and did Buteyko exercises with EFT, then broke into a very fast walk for the last 7 minutes (you get 20 minutes maximum, unless you cheat). I tapped mainly by rubbing the Thumb and Index Finger points together. Then I went to do stretches with my spouse. With each stretch, I would ask myself what emotion is stuck in the tight muscles, and tap-rub for that. It is wonderfully releasing and you get a mind-and-body gentle workout all at the same time. This was followed by the first set of running. I had to run for 15 minutes, walk for 1, then run for 15. I struggled with the first few minutes and just wanted to give up. So I tapped:

¨Even though I can´t do this….¨

¨Even though I´m going to fail…¨

¨Even though I just cannot breathe for this…¨

¨Even though it´s scary doing 15 minutes…¨

¨Even though I can still smell some paint and I´m scared…¨

¨Just a few minutes more, and I´m there¨

Before I knew it, I had done 15 minutes. I wanted to carry on and cheat and do 30, but I decided to claim my Week 7 allowance of a minute´s walk. Very few people were using the treadmills, so I started the machine up again (a kind of cheat) and ran another 15 minutes. With the tapping, I was able to pay attention to my running style and be careful to run slowly rather than jog. I had a sprint at the end, but since my Buteyko Control Pause is down due to a slight infection, I only did about 8.5 km/hr tops. I am concentrating on building my stamina, and I know the speed will come as I get stronger. But I completed my program!

So far…

Suzanne:  7

COPD:  0 – a big fat zero!

Then, I went on the weights. I am building up my shoulder strength with the aim of lifting 20 kg. I started with a set of 15 kg. I was terrified of not making it. And I thought I had seen an *****ole who is really a horrible person, so I started tapping for having to literally face him in order to use the shoulder machine, so I tapped on it, as the thought of a bad person usually weakens your muscles. I simply rubbed my Under Nipple points as I thought of what I´d really like to say to him, and then as I thought of the fear of lifting 15 kg and failing. As it happened, he wasn´t even there but someone who looked like him. But the tapping sure helped the weight lifting. I went round all the machines, challenging myself with more, and ended with another lovely stretch.

I cannot tell you just how wonderful it feels after not only exercising but also tapping for the two hours that I was there. I left on a cloud!

I said in my previous posting that I will report back – well, I excelled my expectations!

I think I did it because:

• I wrote out the Runners World beginners running program on one sheet of A4 that I put in front of me on the wall next to my computer. So I always see it when working on the computer.
• I worked out the distances involved and wrote them down. This got me more involved in thinking the task, imagining I am there and what that would involve.
• I took a comforting item with me (my mobile phone as my stop-watch) and wore clothes I feel comfortable in.
• I used the Buteyko breathing method to help me build my breathing stamina.
• I worked my legs in the gym using weights, and also attended classes, to strengthen the muscles.
• I used EFT for any block in my path.

I hope this helps motivate you or yours for achieving any sports goal you want. I´ll keep you posted on my progress.

That was my mantra yesterday. Let me put it in context. My day was absolutely awful due to being harassed by a crazy person by phone and email. It was not serious enough to call the police, and in my line of work, I do attract some aggressive types. But I was totally shaken and quite rightly felt threatened. You never know what someone like that will do. So no matter what and how I tapped, I stayed on a downer. Then I forced myself to go to the gym, got on the treadmill, and it was hard, so I tapped to release the emotions behind my lack of motivation. I tapped:

¨Even though I´m being harassed by this crazy woman, …¨ … No effect…

¨I´m a good runner¨…  ¨I´m a marathon runner¨… No effect…

I kept doing lots of tappings with little or no effect until I got really angry with this person. I ran as I saw her in my mind in front of me and tapped:

¨F*** you, f*** you¨

I was getting somewhere. I felt better. Then I developed a mantra:

¨F*** you, f*** you, I´m a marathon runner¨

That did it. I completed my training for the day with flying colors and felt immensely calm and motivated

Earlier this year, my spouse lost a contract; and we have only started recovering financially a few weeks ago, since we are in a new country and had to start most of our work again from scratch. And although I had tapped all over the trauma while it was happening of having to tighten our belts and thought I was coping, today it all came out. I was preparing my tax, going through receipts and recording them for my accountant. And I came across that period. It was when I saw the bank ATM receipts that I immediately started tapping; I was living so hand-to-mouth that I often did not have the one day I needed to wait between the money leaving my business account to go into my personal account. There was a period when this happened frequently, and I tapped and cried, tapped and cried, till the receipts became totally neutral to me.

I intuitively tapped on the CollarBone and EyeBrow together, and the Side of the Eye points alternatively, as well as the UnderArm points, as I tapped-and-cried whilst holding each triggering receipt, one at a time. No need for words. It took about an hour, but I totally calmed down afterwards, and I feel very calm about that period now. As a matter of fact, some other receipts reminded me of other things too – not financial, but uncomfortable memories came flooding forth for healing and I tapped-and-cried till all was well. Strangely enough (!!!!) my breathing eased too…

I never thought doing my taxes could be so therapeutic!

Tapping as I read what I’ve written:

My spouse, an IT contractor, is owed two months’ pay. Although on a normal month, we could cope with something like that, we also had to contend with over two weeks of no internet, due to the monopoly supplier here in South Africa not supplying the service, when we were both unable to drum up new business and were totally reliant on referrals, which is not easy when you are in a new country! I am very grateful for the referrals we got. We have survived August almost purely on referrals. However, we have a few partially-paid bills, and it is urgent that we fully pay them. When we did get the internet back (albeit in a slow form), new inquiries started to come in. I was so much in a mind-space of doom and gloom that I would initially miss seeing a sales inquiry email and see business rejections where there weren’t any. I would find out an hour later after tapping, when my mind would clear. Now another supplier, not even a South African one, has let me down, and I am losing more sales, until I can call them on Tuesday – my first opportunity. I am tapping several times a day to relieve the constant stress of it all.

After tapping:

Feeling very relaxed now. I know that I can take up the financial slack in September just with my business if need be, and that by the end of September, the most urgent of these bills will be paid; even if spouse and company contracted to have to part company and there is a wait for another contract. We have put measures in place to replace that income, and although they will only kick in in January, we can cope till then.

I started this tapping with an extreme pain in my neck and right shoulder and an intensity of about 8-9. Now the pain is gone completely and the intensity is about a 0. That’s good enough for me for now.

Having a chronic condition for over two decades usually means challenged finances, which I have been steadily improving by getting steadily better and working on the mainly practical and partly emotional blocks to money. When you have a chronic physical condition, anything that either emotionally or physically has a negative impact on you can make the condition worse. EFT is one way of throwing away the emotional rubbish collecting in your system. In the same way that we dispose of our household rubbish regularly for home cleanliness and hygiene, I use EFT to dispose of negative emotions for my optimal physical health. —

I was really upset about something yesterday. My spouse, hearing my upset talk, started tapping on me straight away, and towards the end suggested a solution to the problem. I went from an 8 out of 10 to a zero and carried out the solution straightaway.

It must have been very effective, because I honestly cannot even remember what the problem was. I cannot even remember what the solution was exactly. It’s all in the past. I love spousal tapping!

Still in tears, I came here to tap.

My spouse got a new DVD series – Crime and Order, UK. The episode I have just seen involved a criminal going to Whittington Hospital for treatment. As soon as I saw the sign to Whittington Hospital, I noticed a spike of 1 out of ten and started rubbing my finger points while I watched. But at the end of this episode, the criminal boss, a high-standing respected member of the community, was found guilty on 17 counts of murder. As the jury returned the verdict of guilty – now I’m crying. Whittington Hospital was never found guilty for what they did to me. I still have some debt to pay because their “top consultant” made out the symptoms I reported did not exist and said I had never caught a virus but suddenly and inexplicably got a severe form of “asthma” literally overnight. I who had everything to live for now became ruined just because of this consultant. I could not claim disability benefits because he insisted there was nothing wrong with me but “asthma”. So if I had asthma you bastard why the hell did I go on my hands and knees coughing up blood every morning for 5 hours?! Why despite earning decent money do I now struggle every month to pay back debts? Why is my credit rating so crap?! He has never been brought to justice.

Setup

“Even though that poor excuse for a human being has never been brought to justice and I’ve never been given a chance to hear the word “guilty”, never been given a chance for all those days and nights I had to work low-paid jobs just to fund alternative health to help myself, I accept myself anyway”

Reminder

“That vile despicable person, no, semi-person, that place where he worked, Whittington Hospital”

“Guilty”

“Guilty on all counts”

“Guilty for what happened to me and my children as a result”

“Guilty”

Tapping as I write:

Now the whole thing is a zero but the fact that  I still have to pay back the remaining debt hurts. I need to have my hair done, the car needs repair, but we have to wait, despite earning enough, because every month, I have to pay back the cost of getting better.  So that is down to a 2-3 now. I am grateful to not only be alive but much better.  The remaining debt is very small compared to what it used to be. It was money well-spent. I will buy Henna powder and have my hair cut cheaply. I can breathe better than I have overall since 23 years ago when the Whittington malpractice happened. This is only temporary. I now feel at peace – 0 for now.

(Gone are loved ones without saying goodbye to us)

Phew!

OK, I went on youtube a lot this week since we finally have unlimited internet in South Africa. And wham! It hit me! This song (and a few others) brought so many feelings about being away from family all over the world, especially one aunt and cousin that I really need to contact but cannot trace right now – although I am getting more ideas as I tap.

Ala Dalouna

So, 12 hours of listening to youtube and tapping constantly on a day off. I tapped over and over again, downloaded the lyrics, tapped and tapped and tapped till I can listen to it and dance and smile instead of cry and cry. Of course, it was not they that left without saying goodbye, it was me. It took 12 hours to see it in perspective.

So youtube’s on the other computer playing continuously as I work.  I want to learn the words or at least some of them so I can sing along.  Mind you, I think I’m getting bored with it now.

Do you have a song that brings up negative feeling? You can play it and tap along.
