Guest guest Posted January 9, 2002 Report Share Posted January 9, 2002 Another forward from 's support list. It is exciting to see that Dr. iel Branden is using EFT. The details of Cutright's community forum website and teleclass are also given. Enjoy! Dayu EFT: Three useful items Note: To subscribe, unsubscribe or change email addresses for this list, please go to http://www.emofree.com/email.htm Also, please feel free to contact our EFT Contributing Editors. Their contact info is usually given at the end of their messages. ******************************** Thought for the day.... " The pursuit of specialness is always at the cost of peace. " A Course In Miracles ******************************** Hi Everyone, Here are three useful items from EFT Contributing Editor, Cutright. 1. A story from Pamela Ney-Noyes, one of 's EFT students, regarding the successful use of EFT on a deep relationship issue. Notice in this case that the tapping was done on globally stated issues. This can often be effective, as illustrated here. However, many cases require that we dig down to the specific events that underlie the larger problem. 2. An invitation to join an online EFT Practitioners Community wherein you can share ideas, case histories and ask questions. This may be of particular interest to many of you because the EFT list is simply too large to accomodate such an interchange. To explore this opportunity, go to http://www.communityzero.com/eft For other lists that discuss EFT and related matters go to our web site at http://www.emofree.com/listson.htm 3. A quote from iel Branden regarding his recent use of energy psychology methods. Some of you might find this useful to get the attention of some of the " unconvinceable " folks out there. Hugs to all, ****************************** 1. EFT ON A RELATIONSHIP ISSUE Dear Friends and Colleagues, Happy New Year, everyone! It has been awhile since I've posted anything to this list. Miracle healings are just getting to be so ordinary! But, I just received this story from a friend and colleague, Pamela Ney-Noyes, whom I taught EFT a few years ago. Pamela is a relationship coach in Hawaii. This is an amazing story that amply illustrates how powerfully effective EFT is with deep relationship issues. J's Story After a 10 year failed marriage and a 13 year long term relationship that ended abruptly amidst broken promises days before they were to be married, J came to me recently feeling utterly hopeless about ever having a loving, supportive relationship with a man. She was wracked by the pain of rejection, filled with anger towards this man in particular and men in general, and skeptical about whether true love and affection even exists. Upon our initial conversation it was evident that the cynicism she felt masked a level of rage not only towards her recent rejection but her entire history with men. As J spoke, I wrote down exactly what she was saying. As we tapped through the layers of anger and frustration, I used her exact words and intonation with the following PR statements: " Even though I feel so angry with men, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself. " " Even though I was left at the alter, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself. " " Even though I don't ever feel like I can trust men again, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself. " " Even though I don't want to ever trust a man or surrender to or love a man again, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself. " " Even though my father and all the men in my life have never been there for me or supported me, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself. " This took her deeper into primal feelings of abandonment, loneliness and sadness from her childhood. This was especially associated with her relationship with her father. Her father was Jewish and non-religious and her mother was Seventh Day Adventist and very religious, controlling and dominating, especially with J. Her father was passive and never stood up for her in her battles with her mother. Her experience was that her father was not there for her. So, we continued to tap on the specific feelings about her father. I used " temporal tapping " *, which I learned in 's EFT Teletraining, toward the end of the session to install some new, positive belief structures about men and relationships. Some of the affirmations we tapped in were: " It is safe and rewarding for me to be loved by a man. " " I deserve to be loved by a good, honest, faithful man and I am now ready. " " I am a positive, attractive force for safe, honest and trustworthy men. " " I am a beautiful, lovable woman and I deserve to be loved. " By this time J was feeling exhilarated with a new energy moving through her body. She noticed a lack of stress and pain when thinking about having a relationship with a man. These feelings were coupled with very strong positive feelings of self-worth, confidence and certainty. Shortly after this powerful session I received a call from her telling me of her new relationship. This man and this relationship are the polar opposite of all her past. He is open, communicative, expressive, loving, and supportive. She has never experienced a man who is as attentive and caring as R is on a daily basis. This man cooks meals for her, lets her sleep a few extra minutes in the morning while he makes the coffee and warms up her car. J came to me saying she could never live with a man or sleep in the same bed with a man because it would be too claustrophobic and she needed her space. Now she sleeps like a baby all night long, wrapped in his arms. She wanted me to meet him face to face which I did three days ago. He adores her in a way that she has always wanted, but has never experienced. He stretches her ability to receive love and appreciation in so many ways. It was a joy to witness their relationship! J is not only a client, but also a friend I have known J since college, and I have never seen her in a relationship like this one. Not long ago, before these sessions, I told J that I was concerned about her because she was looking hard and her energy was sharp and cold. She was surprised, but took my comments with the love with which they were intended. Now, since our work on this issue, and since she has let a loving man into her life, she is looking increasingly soft and radiant! I am so grateful for the blessing of EFT in my life. It has transformed my coaching practice! Pamela Ney-Noyes *Temporal Tapping - is a technique taught in Donna Eden's book, Energy Medicine, which uses tapping on points on the side of the head for installing affirmations. I use it frequently with my clients and teach them how to use it for themselves. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- 2. INVITATION TO AN ONLINE EFT PRACTITIONERS COMMUNITY For those who are interested, I have begun an EFT Practitioners Community online. I began it recently as a forum for graduates of my EFT Teletrainings and Workshops, but thought that some of you who are practitioners might like to participate, as well. This community forum is a place to post articles, websites or any other resources, a well as our experiences, ideas and to ask questions. Feel free to drop by and see if it is something that appeals to you. Just go to http://www.communityzero.com/eft ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- 3. QUOTE FROM NATHANIEL BRANDEN Here is something else I thought everyone might be interested in knowing. In a recent interview, iel Branden was asked, " What kind of new research is being done on raising self-esteem? " " To name only one development, I have become very interested in the field of energy psychology. It is based on techniques of Eastern medicine, in which you harness the body's own energy system to heal emotional problems. Our bodies have meridians, or pathways, through which energy flows. When there is an imbalance or blockage in the flow, different types of emotional disturbances appear. By focusing on a negative feeling, then applying " tapping " to strategic points on the face, hands and torso, the feelings often diminish or disappear entirely. The success I have had in my own practice using these techniques made me rethink the longtime tenet of psychotherapy - that a patient must reexperience and talk through childhood trauma or deep pain to free himself of its negative impacts. I do not regard energy psychology as an answer to all the challenges of psychotherapy, but it is an invaluable tool that can facilitate freedom from trauma and other psychic wounds. " This is an excerpt of an interview that appeared in Bottom Line Personal. You can visit iel Branden's website at www.nathanielbranden.net (There are presently no references to energy psychology there.) iel Branden, Ph.D. pioneered self-esteem over 30 years ago and is the author of more than 20 books, including The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem and The Art of Living Consciously: The Power of Awareness to Transform Everyday Life.
