EFT for Chronic Disease

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.

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. — EFT with Me, Suzanne Zacharia, Practitioner — Stop Smoking E-Book — Asthma and COPD Buteyko E-Book – Download and start using Now! — EFT Workshops Cape Town South Africa — Low-Cost EFT London UK — Reiki Course London UK — EFT Workshops Essex UK —— FREE EFT Teleclass-Webinar — Disclaimer – You are advised to consult with your medical practitioner before embarking on any course of alternative, complementary, or beauty therapy.

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…

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!

Suzanne:  5

COPD:  0

This week started today, and I was terrified that this week is the week the COPD wins. I was so afraid that I could not concentrate on anything and had to tap almost continually all day, till I got the guts to go to the gym and find out. At the gym, I caught the Yoga class, and it was very relaxing. Hard, but relaxing. And of course, I tapped at every opportunity there too. After the class, I went up to the treadmill, but decided to build my lungs up properly first. I went onto the elliptical trainer and tapped/rubbed my finger points against the handlebars while doing my Buteyko exercises for lung stamina. I kept going till I could walk the elliptical trainer for just over 10 seconds holding my breath, and then graduated to the treadmill.

On the treadmill, I was calm but still afraid and I tapped while I walked for about a minute, then I really wanted to run, so I started. I am on Week 5 of the Runners World training, and so I had to run 8 minutes straight. I kept tapping:

¨Even though Iḿ terrified, I deeply love and accept myself¨

¨Even though Iḿ so afraid the COPD will win this time, I deeply love and accept myself¨

It was helping, but I needed more, so I shouted in my mind the ¨I DEEPLY and COMPLETELY LOVE and ACCEPT MYSELF¨ and then there was no stopping me. I made myself stop at 8 minutes, rested 2 minutes, then  started again. I finished the next 8 minutes, and there was a smelly-cheap-perfume-spray person just next to me. Now, that obstruction in my left lung means that if anything irritates my lung, it can swell and the obstruction would stop me in my tracks. So I tapped for ¨poison person¨ and then simply changed to another treadmill. I kept going till I did my set of 3 8-minute runs. Then I allowed myself to break into a sprint. It lasted about 12 seconds but it was wonderful.

So….

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

I found out yesterday that I am now fit enough to run the Two Oceans Half-Marathon. I nearly did not make it; not for physical reasons, but for emotional reasons. The requirement is to be able to walk 1 km in 8.5 minutes. I made it in 8 minutes and 28 seconds.

Everyone who knows me knows that I fell seriously ill with a lung condition in 1986, which became chronic in 1987 and have since been on the path first to stay alive, and then to get better. Running this half marathon will be quite a testament to all the healing work I have done, without which I should now be either dead or in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank. Let me tell you about my journey yesterday.

It started with a self-healing for abundance and money. Having been living with a serious lung condition for over 20 years, I am at the last stages of paying off the huge debt that I got into. That created in me many blocks to money success. And the day before yesterday, I was working to release a money block, after which I felt great, so I posted something on Facebook saying that I have a new passion. This led to some replies, and then I replied that my plan was to enter a sporting event in 2014, when I reckoned I would be fit enough, but that I would probably be ready for 2012. Then my cousin replied that she would like to join me, and she was thinking of running the Two Oceans marathon next year. At this point, curiosity got the better of me, and I looked up the Two Oceans website. I found out they have a 21 km half-marathon and found out the entry requirements. I decided the next day at the gym, I would go on the treadmill and find out if I was fit enough.

I got to the gym just in time to enter a fun event they were running. It was a two-hour Zumbathon, which was too good to miss. I had to tap during the Zumbathon to stay there, as the compulsion to go to the treadmill was pretty overwhelming at times. I needed to find out so badly! But I knew that if I missed out on the Zunmbathon, I would be disappointed. The same again happened with the stretch class after the Zumbathon. It is really important to stretch as part of my fitness regime, and I tapped to control the urge to skip the class and make a beeline to the treadmill. The tapping was very simple. I just rubbed or tapped my favourite points discreetly as I thought of the urge to go to the treadmill.

Then the stretch class finished. My heart was beating audibly in my chest as I finally went determinedly to the treadmill. After 23 years, was I finally fit enough to do this, or would I be severely disappointed? I got on the treadmill and started walking but realized that I did not know how to measure 1 km in 8.5 minutes. Too excited to do a mental calculation, I got off the treadmill and back to the changing-room, where I worked out that it is around 7.2 km per hour. Then it was a simple matter of knowing that I had to run an average of 7.2 km per hour in order to complete the 1 km in 8.5 minutes. Back on the treadmill, I started walking then set the controls, and walked – and struggled to breathe. At 2.5 minutes, I felt exhausted. I started tapping by rubbing my thumb points continuously on the handlebars as I thought the negative thoughts which were weakening me. My spouse used to be an olympic-grade athlete and is now disabled, and was totally depressed when I had announced my intention to enter the half-marathon. But as I was tapping, my thoughts changed to knowing that if I set an example with my miraculous healing, then my spouse can only be encouraged by that in due course. The walking became very easy after that, till about 3.5 minutes, when I had the fear of failure weakening me. So I tapped in the same way while saying to myself:

I can´t make it – I can make it – I can´t make it – I can make it.

The tapping changed what I was saying to:

I can make it. I can do it. I can.

Then at 5 minutes, I wanted to make sure I did this. I spoke in my mind, whilst tapping continuously, giving every cell in my body a one-word message:

Health

At 6 minutes, I felt that every cell in my body was understanding the new command and was doing what was required to be in a state of health. Then, to be extra sure, I visualised myself wearing the shirt with lots of numbers on it, like the guy in the picture on the two oceans website. I imagined myself running with a few people in front of me (as is physically realistic) and lots of people behind me. Then I continued tapping as I approached 8 minutes and 28 seconds to stop myself from crying with joy in front of everyone at the gym!

If you are planning to go and want to meet up, let me know! Now what remains is to wait for the Two Oceans website to be ready for me to pay them and officially enter. I hope I have not missed out for this round. If so, I will simply enter the next one. I eagerly await this to happen.

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!

…  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.

My spouse is down to one small contract for now and I worry about when the next one will happen, as it is mainly down to me right now. So I am up worrying. Of course this won’t help anything.

Setup

“Even though I worry and can’t sleep, I trust the Universe will provide, even if not just yet”

Reminder

“Grrr… Why not just yet? I want it and I want it now”

“Can’t sleep”

Yawn…

Tired…

“Can’t sleep”

Yawn…

Going to bed…

I am stuck at my home office, where I have been for the past two days, up to my ears in admin that simply cannot wait and unexpected surprises.  I have not been able to go to the gym yesterday, which I had promised myself, and today’s visit is looking increasingly unlikely.

Setup

“Even though I am stuck and frustrated and angry at myself fore not seeing that email [warning me of a systems change], I maybe can accept myself, oh alright, I accept myself anyway, I choose to love, accept and forgive myself”

Reminder

“I ask for new solutions to this problem. I deserve my time off, my hobby, I have more than earned it. I ask the Universe to show me a way”

…. Crying, not of sadness, but my way of finally releasing all this pent-up frustration doing desk fork for almost two days solid…

…Looking at my diary to find solutions…

Well, if I can’t make the gym this morning, I have a half-hour window of opportunity tonight.  Not quite what I want, but it is something I can aim for. My reward for doing this desk work.

Frustration now down to 6.

“ET I’m frustrated and hate desk work, hate being cooped up, hate not being physical, hate being indoors, I love myself anyway”

Oh hell, I’ll go soon.  I’ve found some ways…

Frustration down to 2. Will do more tapping later.

I had a tummy bug and so this is my second day properly at the gym, and it’s good that my health is picking up again almost where I left off. I started tapping discreetly by rubbing the finger points against the handlebars, then ended up rubbing some extra points from the Under Nipple down. The statements I used were something like:

“1 minute [at very high speed]” when we had a 1-minute breakaway.

“I can do this. YES I CAN”.

“I am Superwoman” Now that one made me weaker, whereas in the past it had worked. So I tapped on all the issues around it, or should I say – rubbed.

At one point, I felt like I was breathing freely. It was the most amazing feeling, to feel normal again. It didn’t last, but I remember it and hold onto it.

Gillian (worth a visit to Virgin Active in Cape Town’s Tableview – she really gets the music) was saying something to those in the group training for Ironman. At the same time, I happened to be tapping, and all of a sudden it hit me: There is no reason why I can’t make that my goal! OK, I’ll start small, with a small event, and build up. I reckon it will take me 4 years to get my fitness up to the level of entry in a smaller event, but I now plan to do it. I gave myself till January 2014 to become ready. 3 Years and 11 months and counting…
