“…we tried engaging her own inner imagery along with the tapping… I asked her to get in touch with her depression and see what image might form…”

“…when there are too many memories of the same type of event happening over time [...] I ask the client to create a two minute movie drawing on elements of what they’ve experienced. This seems to have the effect of neatly gathering together many similar memories, whilst still giving the focus and specificity we need to neutralise their emotional distress using EFT. ”

“We judge ourselves against our peers but we often retain the wounds of those beliefs into adulthood even though our adult minds know better. Our hearts and subconscious minds don’t. That is why all the intellectual reasons we give ourselves why we should ‘know better’ don’t work. We have to pull out those thorns that still make us hurt deep down.”

It is about practicing (and modeling) the focus and attention necessary to help a person find her way…”

“For me, there’s a tangible difference between wanting to help someone feel better and trying to manipulate or control their behavior. It’s true that I wanted that baby to not cry and for the dogs to stop barking, but the entire focus of my tapping for them was about feeling safe and loved. The change in behavior was secondary.”

“They say that , ‘a picture says a thousand words’ and I would like to share with practitioners some of the tried and tested EFT tools in my toolkit, that use pictures and photographs.
