Fears & Phobias

FEAR - sometimes we get stuck in life, unable to move forward because we are afraid. These feelings of fear are not based on what we are about to do. Instead they are a memory of a feeling, triggered by something that has happened to us in the past. Such triggers may be rejection, bullying, abuse, loss, illness, accident etc.

EFT and energy therapy can help with: fear of public speaking, exams nerves, fear of relationships, fear of failure, fear of the future. Even fear of success!

We have a tool to enable us to use our past negative experiences as leverage to move forward, beyond our emotional blockages. Often immediately and, in some cases, permanently! This unique process is not about continuously re-living the pain of past traumas and anxieties. Instead we work to re-align the body's energy system, so that it does not react instinctively in a negative way (fight or flight) when a certain memory (consciously or subconsciously) is recalled.

When your body reacts instinctively to fear. It does this to protect you. This is a good thing! However, your mind cannot tell the difference between a memory and the physical present and this protection is not always appropriate and in some cases this fear is no longer serving you and is preventing you from doing what you want to do in life.

When faced with your fear you may experience physical symptoms for example: trembling, nausea, increased heart rate, sweating. We work on these anxieties during our session by recalling the triggers and tapping on the meridian points until the body calms down.

This may not happen immediately, sometimes we don't know what the triggers are and we work with this, like peeling layers of an onion, until we get to where we need to go. Remember that we that we achieve this in a safe environment.

We work with PHOBIAS on the same principle. Whether it is snakes, spiders, heights or fear of flying, I would work with you teaching you how you can calm you body down quickly and safely. Phobias contain many different aspects. For example if you have a fear of flying we would work with every detail to do with the lead up to your flight, as well as the flight itself. The anxieties don't just start when the engine fires up, they begin probably before the flight is booked!

These techniques have proven success rates in 80 - 85% of cases in helping individuals reduce and sometimes completely eliminate their fears and phobias.

Diet & Smoking

Have you tried to give up smoking or started a new diet, only to give up after a few weeks?

It is not that you didn't have enough willpower or that the diet didn't work. You were simply trying to give up a habit by making it as painful as possible - giving up by denial.

When you have a craving and you deny that craving, you experience anxiety. If you have a cigarette or a piece of chocolate, that anxiety would be taken care of. Until the next time, when you would have to do battle all over again. Food and cigarettes, and other addictive substances, become suppressants of anxiety which is a negative emotion.

Instead of working on your addiction through denial, EFT addresses the anxieties that will come up as a result of your craving. If you don't have an anxiety, you will not feel the need for a craving.

EFT is a non-invasive, and extremely successful alternative therapy, achieving rapid and often permanent results in a very short time.

When you come for your session, I will ask you to bring with you whatever it is that you are trying to give up - this could be slices of Millionaire Shortbread (my personal favourite!), chocolate hobnobs, peanuts, cigarettes, wine, spirits etc.. We will work on your cravings there and then, on the spot! That is the first step - the easy one! Yes, I did say easy. Working with cravings on one of the easiest and quickest ways to show how impressive EFT can be. You will learn the technique to stop a craving and take it away with you to use any time. Of course, whether you choose to use it, is up to you.

EFT doesn’t not make you lose weight or give up smoking. Only you can choose to do that. Once you make that choice, EFT is the tool that will empower you to succeed. The reason is succeeds where other methods fail, is it works on the drivers behind the cravings. If you are going through a stressful divorce or you have just lost your job, then a nicotine patch is not going to work on you as it might someone who is happy and carefree. Once pill does not fit all. EFT is a tool that treats the individual.

1 You can do EFT on yourself
2 It is pain-free
3 It works on your first session

3 great reasons to give it a try!

Relationships

How can you find room for love in your heart if the space is taken up with old hurts, traumas and disillusionments?

Imagine the home of your heart having several rooms. As you allow yourself in through the front door you walk into a big open-plan space. This space is filled with all those who love you and want only what's best for you. Yet as you enjoy spending time with them, you are aware of the distractions coming from the smaller connecting rooms. The rooms behind the locked doors. The Hurting Room houses loves, friends and family members that have 'done you wrong' or have let you down in some way, at some time. For example you may have a Vampire room that houses those current loves, friends and family who drag you down. It's full of those people who feed off your energy and goodwill and leave you feeling insignificant and used. The Ghost Room houses the loves, friends and family who have passed over, leaving behind anger, grief and depression.

If you are wanting to attract the right relationships into your life, you will need to clear out those distractions in those locked connecting rooms. You think you can ignore them, but they will always be there. It's a bit like cleaning the surfaces in your kitchen, only to leave the mould and festering nasties lurking in the cupboards!

The logical part of your brain (the left side) knows that it is possible for you to forgive and let go, but the emotional side of your brain (the right side) is full of 'yes buts' and 'you don't understands' and also you may not really want to let go - it doesn't feel safe. It is those 'yes buts' that we work with in EFT. It is those 'yes buts' that are the gift! They are the gift that will move you forward. They are your key that will allow you to throw open those doors, to let in the cleansing sunlight and fresh air. We can't change the past, but we can get rid of all the negative emotions and anxieties tied in with it, that are serving you no purpose today.

The mind and body work as one.

Whilst working on the emotional aspects of physical ailments and disease, relief may be experienced with symptoms such as:-

• headaches
• muscular tension
• backache
• diabetes
• eating disorders
• joint pain
• constipation
• skin conditions
• allergies
• asthma
• depression
• PMS
• cancer
• IBS
• blood disorders
• sleep deprivation

....... the list is not endless, EFT and Energy Therapy can be tried on anything where there is an emotional or physical discomfort.

EFT is not a magic wand, it will not cure you - that is your job. Healing is from the inside and EFT is a self-help tool that will help you create a conducive internal atmosphere to help your body's natural healing process.

EFT does not replace medical care, and there are three important points to consider:

• In the case of serious medical conditions or suspicious symptoms always seek the advice of your medical practitioner, before using EFT.
• Even if you believe you are clear of ongoing symptoms, always consult with your Doctor before giving up your medication.
• Pain is a signal from your body that something is wrong. If it is being subdued by alternative therapies, and keeps returning, consult with your Doctor to understand the medical basis of that pain.
