Core Issues

Excellent article about resolving core issues... the heart of EFT. Symptoms abound in various forms and flavors, it's always finding the core issue that resolves the inner storms.

By Annie O’Grady

Some people are haunted by a repressed memory, and this is a constant drain on their energy that can go on over decades.  They feel that something bad happened to them around a particular age, but they can’t find out what it was.  Here are two cases (names changed) where EFT not only uncovered the ‘secrets’ but neutralized their lifelong impact, each in one session.
Bill, a truck driver in his sixties, had come for an EFT session because his girlfriend had experienced a big breakthrough from a session, and he was curious.  Initially, he thought he didn’t have any stress to work on.  But soon he mentioned that he was sad about his dead son - and had been sad every day for twenty-five years.
This involved a hospital memory that was still vivid for him.  We tapped away stress from the trauma he described.  He had held his newborn son in his arms for two hours, waiting for the baby to die from a congenital physical defect.  Finally a nurse told him it had happened. Read more here.

PTSD?

Really great quick article about releasing PTSD. If you, or someone you know is suffering from this, we invite you to check out EFT as an option for your emotional wellness "tool chest".

Three times over a period of about 25 years, I experienced shortness of breath, blood draining from my face and heart palpitations and had to pull over while driving. Even though this occurred so seldom, these are typical symptoms of PTSD. Years later, I started putting things together that at each occurrence, I was passing an accident just at the moment that a person on a gurney was being put into an ambulance. By this time I was experienced in EFT and started looking for an explanation.  Read more here.

Immediate Early Genes

Extremely interesting article showing the differences in gene expressions in the presence of stress. As EFT is an effective tool in reducing stress, imagine the positive impact on your gene expression!

A particular class of genes of great interest to biologists, because they turn on in three seconds or less, is the IEGs or Immediate Early Genes. These are the stress genes, the ones that contain the blueprints that allow our bodies to produce stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol. They turn on quickly because an effective response to danger is essential to an organism's survival. But if they're turned on repeatedly, for instance by filling our minds with stressful thoughts, or re-playing unresolved childhood traumas, the overproduction of those stress hormones robs our body of the precursors required for cell repair and other beneficial biological functions. In this groundbreaking paper, David Feinstein and Dawson Church explain how EFT and other forms of energy psychology reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories, and thus reduce their biological impact as well, silencing stress genes.
