EFT for Chronic Disease

At the gym a couple of days ago, I was stretching-and-tapping as usual after my workout. My hips have been tight lately. I started tapping on the tightness on the right side of my bottom, saying “Even though I have this pain in the ass,…” and thinking of incidents, situations, and people that could be a pain in the backside for me. Suddenly, I got the feeling that I should be tapping on something else. My groin was tight, and (sorry if this offends) I just got the feeling I must say “Even though I’ve been shafted,…” – Wow! Immediately 2 people who had taken advantage of me (pre-EFT days) came to mind. I kept tapping on this strange new statement, and my groin relaxed much further. Amazing.

My hip has been a challenge lately. A visit to the chiropractor helped slightly, but in Cape Town, all chiropractors I have experienced, however well-recommended, give a very poor service. After tapping on that for two days, I decided on attending every stretch, Yoga, and Pilates class I can, and to get regular massages. I am also using Epsom salts and progesterone cream, the combination of which is great. Every day, my hip is improving. This helps me to run, which helps my lung. I will be getting my SI joint properly sorted when I am in the UK in April, if there is any problem remaining, that is. I think it is unlikely, as today, my hip feels amazing. If you want to catch me in the UK, I will be presenting an aura scanning and chakra colour healing course for EFTers to take their EFT to new horizons.

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.

This morning, I walked to the gym then started on the bike for 15 minutes, taking it easy on not usually anything more than 80 spm. But, my spouse had promised me to put a great piece of music on the iPod and it was only then that I discovered it was not on there, after promising myself it to listen to at the gym all the day before. So I tapped on that on the bike, but it was not enough. So I went to the toilet and tapped for about 5 minutes properly things like:

¨Even though I´m bitterly disappointed, …¨

I tapped it down from an 8 to zero and then went up to the treadmill. After a few minutes, I started feeling breathless, so I walked while using my Buteyko exercises. At the same time, I tapped with my Thumb points on the bar of the treadmill, although I usually just rub my Thumb with my other finger points while I run. There was no need for words. The feeling was one of panic and ¨I can´t breathe¨. It soon passed and the exercises worked.

Then I started my second run interval. It was supposed to be 3 minutes. At the beginning of it, I remembered my daughter´s advice to run on the road too, and, planning to do it at least at the end of my 8-week beginner´s training (leading up to running 30 minutes straight) , I panicked thinking how on earth would I manage to run half an hour straight on the road. I tapped as I ran thinking about that. Again, no need for words, I just let the thoughts come to me as I rubbed my finger points together. And then, a strange thing happened. I watched the clock go past 3 minutes. I was feeling fine. Then it went past 3 and half minutes, four minutes, and then I made myself stop running at 5 minutes. It was so very easy! I am sure it was as a result of tapping on my fear of running half an hour straight. I did one more stint of 5 minutes in that session at least.

I also did some Buteyko exercises whilst rubbing the finger points during each walk. At the end of that session, I was breathing very easily and continued to do so for hours afterwards

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!

Sigh…

About 3 weeks ago, my spouse rescued a kitten from an owner who suddenly became incapacitated, and tried to keep her against my protestations. Our home is too small, we don’t have a garden, I had no time to play with this lovely kitten or take care of her, I was desperately trying to recover from a chest infection from hell, and it turned out that our existing cat had a big behavioral problem regarding other cats, which took up even more of my time and energy. I was exhausted tapping, looking for root causes, tapping, doing body language stuff, cooped up with the windows closed, up all night with the kitten playing and being a naturally boisterous little kitten, my papers and bills strewn all over the floor, the smell of a suddenly-full cat litter, etc… And I just could not take any more in the end. So I put my foot down and insisted we find her a good home pretty sharpish. We did within a day. She went to the most loving home you can imagine, with two boys who had just lost their beloved cat. She is now very happy. Last night I managed 10 hours of sleep – I had been that exhausted. Today, strangely enough, I felt clear-headed enough to find several root causes for our cat’s behavior. I will tap slowly and gradually over the next months until all this is cleared with our cat, as we want to adopt another cat when we move to a bigger property in a couple of years or so. And although I still feel a bit of a fraud letting the kitten go, it was only by tapping that I realized my health could not take all the closed windows, smelly cat litter, being up all night with kitten’s play, daily tapping for three more months for our existing cat, and all that pressure. Sometimes the tapping shows us a solution to a problem rather than solve the problem directly. And I know my daughter tapped for her own cat for about 4 months with my help and now her cat is totally cured and behaves impeccably. But my health could not have taken three more months of this. I was really bad; so bad I had to go on a short course of steroids as well as antibiotics.

So, after tapping on this about an hour a day for a few weeks, what remains is a 2 out of 10 of feeling a fraud for letting the kitten go.

“Even though I feel like a fraud…”

No result

Setup and Reminder

“Even though I feel like a fraud, I DEEPLY LOVE AND ACCEPT MYSELF”

I now have my calm self-respect back. Phew!

Biiig Yawn…

…  Ra7ou L 7abaieb Ma Wadda3ouna..

(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.

I have just woken up from a dream. Although in the dream I was happily resigned to my fate, I woke up feeling I have had a nightmare. In the dream, I had given up on my spouse going out with me, so I had dressed up to go out on my own.

As soon as I woke up, feeling unhappy, I realized what the dream was about. I had worked really hard, building up my business, purchasing carefully, advertising cleverly, opening up to new possibilities, with a goal in mind, that of getting my spouse a personal trainer again. In the UK< we had a personal trainer for a while, and he was very good. Then he left to form his own gym and then I found out my spouse’s settlement for the injury sustained was not going to even cover the debts we had gotten into for recovery from just the injury, and shelved it. But my spouse has severe ADHD and is usually incapable of motivation to go to the gym. We have tapped on this, and it started improving, and then I got this personal trainer who specializes in injury and had so much hope placed on him. But he was just like any other average personal trainer in the end, and he declined the work, too scared to cause further injury. He said that swimming was OK but “I would get bored just supervising you swimming up and down for 45 minutes”. I am now finally crying. How dare he turn down good business because it is boring to him? How did he make the decision to ruin one very good chance we had, just because it was “boring” to him? I feel devastated. I must have felt very upset, because for the past week, I have been taking it out on my spouse, exploding with anger at the slightest thing, totally unnecessarily, and I didn’t know why. Tapping on the events directly has not been helping. Now I know why. So I am tapping as I write this, and crying tears of bitter disappointment.

As a result, the advertisement I had thought not to place, I will now place. I must have been put off it because of the thought that if I make the money, there is no point, I will not be able to buy what we need.

I now know that this is a lazy personal trainer that despite being caring and professional, is not as caring as I am when it comes to my clients. I never turn anyone down if I think their treatment will “bore” me. I simply find a way to make it interesting. After all, I may be the last person they approach or have been referred to, and if I don’t accept to help them, they are at risk of either losing their life or the quality of their life, and I would never do that to anyone.

I’m still tapping as I write. Now the nightmare which shocked me into awakening is down to a 4 out of 10.

Actually, the trainer did say that if we got (yet another) MRI done and some blood tests, he is willing to re-consider the case. So now we are aiming at the goal of having the MRI and blood test. Blood test first. Then I have to check the MRI procedures, as I have received bad news in my email about one particular thing that is used in some MRI examinations. All will cost money, as this is a pre-existing condition, and medical insurance for anything other than emergency care is way beyond our means, because of the previous illnesses.

Tapping as I write, I now have a two. I realize that when I make all the money we need (by next month), it will not be wasted. If he still says no, you are too boring to work with, I’ll just remain on the lookout for someone better. we’ll find someone eventually. Or maybe we can just keep tapping for motivation, and maybe that is all we need!

Reminder (no Setup):
“This nightmare, this personal trainer”

Down to 1 for nightmare, 6 and 4 (both) for personal trainer.

Setup:
“Even though I have this [his name] feeling, I deeply…”
Reminder:
“[His name]”

All 0.

Peace.

I’m stuck indoors again. There is a problem with my payment system and until it is sorted, I have to personally supervise that it is, although I pay good money to ensure it gets done, and I AM MAD AS HELL about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Setup:
“F…..ng STUPID ….., I’m now STUCK INDOORS yet again AND – AND I’M WORKING ON A DAY OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Reminder:
“Working on my day off, stuck indoors”
“My only day off this week”
“Why do I have to supervise contractors’ work?”
“OK, so that’s why I’m the boss, because I can and they can’t, but why is that not much consolation right now?”
“Angry as hell”

Setup:
“I love working with clients, I enjoy giving workshops, but this admin and drudgery work, well, I had booked today off from it, but I have to do it anyway now, and I am so sad I can’t trust someone who doesn’t care enough about my business to get the work done unless I’m breathing down their neck.”

I don’t feel like killing someone anymore. I’m only a 5 out of 10 now.

Setup
“Even though I have this 5, and I’m ANGRY that I’m angry, I f….ng accept myself any f……ng way”
Reminder
“Angry I’m f….ng angry”

At the 9-Gamut, I felt it dissipate to 3, now at 2.23 (honest, no kidding).

I feel sick – I got so mad, I couldn’t finish my breakfast – gloop (porridge), my fav breakfast, ah well, I do want to lose weight, maybe I had too much in my bowl.

Setup
“Even though it interrupted my breakfast and canceled my morning and I’m not at all happy about it, I accept myself anyway”
Reminder
“Interrupted my breakfast and poisoned my blood [with anger and resentment]”

Setup
“Even though my morning’s canceled now, and I can’t have time to myself till Monday morning, and I am now angry about THAT, I accept myself anyway”
Reminder
“Let’s call this week a bust, next week’s another week, a new start, start again, no point trying this week, not meant to be”

I care about my business more than I care about having a day off. I’m now accepting that I do not have any time to myself today and will have to ride out this wave. I’m not happy about it but I’m calm. Maybe a 1. I don’t think it is going to go down any further, as I am continually supervising the work and it’s ongoing for the rest of today.
