EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques

EFT Master Practitioner Suheyla Pinar Alper from Turkey writes: Aylin, is a 17 year-old, bubbly, sensitive teenager, a first-year psychology student at university, whom I met at a friend's engagement party. When she heard I was an energist, a personal development consultant as well, she caught me at one corner of the room to whisper to me that she would love to come see me for a few sessions.

When we finally met, she told me that she had difficulty dealing with her feelings regarding 8-10 year-old little girls. She resented them, and whenever they came close to anyone she loved, she actually experienced intense hatred...

AMT trainer Peter Delves is providing the first TimelineEFT Practitioner training in Kenilworth, Warwickshire UK from 29-30 June 2013.

Here he explains how and why he developed this EFT training course ...

EFT Master Practitioner-in-training Carole Gordon writes: I love 'secret therapy'. This case concerned a female client in her mid-fifties, and I knew that the issue involved sexual abuse, but beyond that I had no specific details at all. The client found it difficult to talk about it. As such, it was perfectly suited to secret therapy, ie. energy work in which the therapeutic focus is the energy body, without engaging cognitively in the story. It enables the client to remain the custodian of her secret, without disclosing embarrassing or shameful details to the therapist.

AMT Trainer and new EFT Master Practitioner Denise Jacques has written a case story involving a client with mother issues, whom Denise helps by using aspects.

Denise writes: Sonia was a regular client of mine and we had worked very successfully together. A lot of her issues related to her mother and there was one very damaging event that had come to her that had happened 20 years when she was 35 which she wanted to deal with. I explained to Sonia about working with aspects and she was very keen to try this out and rescue her 35 year old aspect. She appreciated the important of not using the first person to describe her experiences and was happy to use the term 'the aspect'. I checked Sonia's stress level and she was fine so I asked her to begin outlining the event and she started her story...

In this case story, new GoE EFT Master Practitioner Tanya Lyons tells of a client that came to her suffering from a variety of symptoms that had left them emaciated, both physically and emotionally. As they begin to work together Tanya begins to feel an energetic vacuum that seems to be draining all his energy and strength.

Tanya writes: Before I met my client I wanted to feel that I was in a good and positive state to work with him, so I tapped on 'positive energy, open awareness, love and acceptance' I felt really motivated and ready to work with my client (high on the SUE scale).

My client entered the room, I was quite taken aback by how undernourished and emaciated that he looked, his cheekbones protruded on his face and he looked like he had been starved. His skin was ghostly pale and his eyes were sunk into his face...

Suheyla Pinar Alper, an EFT Master Practitioner from Istanbul, Turkey, has written a fantastic EFT case story titled "Time Travel with EFT, or: Resolving 21 Years of Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection!

Suheyla writes: This is Eylem's story, a 34 year-old young woman. She came in 5 months ago complaining of urinary tract infections she has been suffering from ever since she was 13 years old. As a result of recurring UTI's she has been on and off antibiotics since the age of 13 and for the last two years, she has been having bouts of UTI every month. She has had to go to emergency rooms a few times with high temperature, as the infection spread to her kidneys.

Earlier this month, EFT was featured in popular UK magazine Woman's Weekly. They recommended EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques for weight-loss, something that many AMT EFT Practitioners around the world specialise in.

One of the really great things about EFT is how simple it is, and how it can be used in any situation, by anyone. In this example, EFT Master Practitioner distance learning student Sue Cooke tells the story of how EFT came to the rescue in her day-job as a driving instructor, helping the student overcome the panic of a close-call behind the wheel.

Sue writes: My student was terrified and was crying, having visions of killing the person who had just run out at a pedestrian crossing. We were travelling at an appropriate speed having anticipated the situation to prevent anything from developing.

I had to gently and calmly ask her to help me by moving the car to a safe and convenient place so we could stop the car...

Pamela Free, an EFT Master Practitioner student from California, tells the case story of a client who came to her with a strong resistance to trust, and frustration within his life. With work, Pamela managed to break down these barriers and help resolve some long buried issues.

Pamela writes: Robert was referred to me by his wife, Elena, who is a client of mine. He had seen the changes that EFT made in his wife and was willing to give it a try. He was extremely shut down, his wife described him as a 'dead man walking' a lot of the time, extremely stressed with family, money and job problems and had significant PTSD from his childhood. They actually had been discussing having him go on Prozac or something similar.

EFT Master Practitioner distance learning student Anne Marie Yates has written a case story that shows how effectivley EFT can help clients cope with panic and come to terms with bad news.

Anne writes: It was early on Monday morning when I first received a phone call from Amanda's daughter, Anita. She was so worried and concerned about her mother that she had taken a day off work because she didn't want to leave her on her own. Luckily enough, I was completely free that morning and I arranged to go to Amanda's home four miles away to do the treatment.

EFT Master Practitioner Helen Sanders has put together a case study in which the client is able to relieve great stress and pain that has built up over the years, without the need to talk about the issues.

Helen writes: Heather really did not want to talk about the issue that was causing problems, and this was one of the reasons she had not gone for help before.

It was an obvious relief for her that EFT would not involve this when using the body protocol. I could sense the relief from Heather as she relaxed when I explained this.

EFT Master Practitioner and Professional Energist Tony Leake writes: 

This morning Julie told me that she wanted to work on 'the big one', the thing that she most has problems with in her life. From a lady who is adopted and has had a lot of problems to do with separation and abandonment along with periods of anorexia and self harm this was a huge statement.

After our usual rounds of de-stressing and energising she told me the following story...

EMO & EFT Master Practitioner Suheyla Pinar-Alper from Turkey writes: This an account of a combined session (two hours) of EFT and Emotrance with the unfolding of a guiding star event. My client came in with intense back and neck pain. She left totally relaxed, pain-free and smiling.

She was a 42 year-old professional woman, married and mother of a 4-year old. She came to me suffering from intensive back pain, neck pain and stiffness. She had been receiving physiotherapy since September. On the Sue Scale she described her state as a minus 5.

EFT Master Practitioner distance learning student Penny Wright from Brighton, UK writes: I first started working with Ernest just after his 5th birthday. Ernest at this time was a happy bright little boy with lots of curiosity but seemed very easily unsettled. Anything new or unfamiliar could easily trigger frantic fast talking in him. Ernest would sometimes anxiously call out " don't like it mummy, don't like it" then dissolve into tears. Ernest is also registered blind and very sensitive to sound. At this point Ernest was experiencing a lot of anxiety when there were sudden unexpected noises and was particularly alarmed by these noises when he was at home. I sensed that the unfamiliar noises at home were more frustrating than the ones he encountered outside. One particular noise that threw Ernest into a state of panic was the sound of the large dog barking next door. One such day Ernest was sitting on the sofa, calmly playing and totally engrossed with his noisy toys. Suddenly the dog next door started to bark. Ernest stopped what he was doing and stilled himself. The dog stopped barking and Ernest seemed to relax a touch. Seconds later the dog started to bark again and again but pausing every so often. At this point Ernest called out desperately "don't like it, no no I want to go to bed." It was on this occasion that I decided to try EFT to reduce his anxiety to this unexpected, loud and intrusive noise.

GoE Energy EFT Master Practitioner student Debbie Barber from Australia writes has written a great case story that warms the heart and shows a quick and effective application for EFT, getting rid of migraines.

Debbie writes: Recently my son Ned held a very large party out in the bush on a 10 000 acre property in North Queensland, Australia called The Collaborations Festival. It was a party that goes on for days, one that cranks up the music so loud that the earth shakes beneath your feet, one that hundreds of people attend and one that you remember forever.

In this case story, Roy Riseborough from the UK helps a friend eleviate a guilt that has lived with them a long time with the help of Energy EFT.

Roy writes: I have known Angela for some time and to me she appeared to exude confidence, she moved with an "air" about her of someone without a care in the world. It was therefore somewhat of a shock to me when in conversation with her about Nursing (she, like me, is a professional Nurse) she confided in me and started to explain " her problem".

John Staples from Maryland, USA writes: When my grand son was born on June 25 of this year we were there and it was extremely stressful for all involved and particularly him. He was stuck in the birth canal for a long time and it turned out he was not getting enough oxygen. When he finally came out he was gray and stressed and his Apgar score was a 2-3. They immediately put him on oxygen and the physician said he had several issues that were troubling which needed to be resolved, and he would have to remain in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for several days or longer.

Tanya Lyons, an EFT Master Practitioner student currently studying the distance learning coruse, writes: My client came with an issue of having a frozen shoulder. She has regular steroid injections for the pain. She had good days and bad days with the pain and she has just learned to live with it!

I explained the theory behind EFT with the notion that there could be an emotional component to the experienced pain and by treating physical pain with EFT, we are healing the energy body level of the problem and we are "taking out" the psychosomatic pain component.

I didn't confess to be able to cure the problem but to simply see what happened. My client looked rather intrigued and curious at what may happen.
