There was a time when people were allowed to have crooked
teeth and still could get a job and a wife.
There was also a time when children were allowed to be shy
and withdrawn and it was ok.
Now, that’s no longer so.
With ever-increasing pressure to be perfect as defined by
the anorexic fashion model conspiracy and the He-Man cults, one has to be
“popular”.
Inhibited, shy, quiet, thoughtful, introverted is looked
upon as a disease just as much as being overweight, having unruly hair, or being
on the skinny side and it needs to be fixed.
So now, we have – and a drumroll please! – for the
first time in the history of humankind, the concept of social phobia, social
anxiety, interaction terror, or even, God help us all, social phobia anxiety
disorder.
The problem is with shy people, when you push them into
being more “outgoing” and less reserved, they tend to get worse and worse as
a direct result. Most of them, if left alone, would indeed grow out of it and
manage perfectly well as billions of ancestors did, become fine, happy and
fulfilled members of society in their own rights.
Parents more than ever are absolutely terrified that their
children should be less than perfect and now, it’s not the morals or behaviour
they are being judged by but indeed, what they look like and how “popular”
they are at school or at work.
Now, being afraid of people is indeed a most heartbreaking
problem and it is always rooted in negative experiences of one kind or the
other, decisions that were made at some point or the other about ones self worth
and abilities to protect oneself – there is no doubt about that.
There is further no doubt about the fact that we need to do
something about it and especially, when children are being afflicted by the
every growing pressure to be perfect, judged by their peers to be socially
inadequate and brutally tormented and bullied. But also for adults who may
suffer from any type of social anxiety and including commitment phobia, much
relief can be experienced by the application of Energy Therapies, such as EFT
and EMO.
Energy Therapies and including EFT & EMO do not
seek to change the behaviour that results from the fear of a social phobia from
the outside in, but rather treats the tremendous fear and anxiety that arises at
the very thought of having to interact and possibly experience even more pain
and anxiety in a social situation directly from the inside.
Energy Therapies (also sometimes known as Energy
Psychology) recognises that the emotions of fear and anxiety, terror and panic
are nothing but the symptoms of an injury an individual has sustained at some
point in their neurology (energy system). The reflex responses of fear, panic
and terror in social situations arise from the equivalent of the pain someone
would feel if an open, sore wound was being pushed against. This is not a matter
of willpower or learning to “take the pain” but truly, a question of healing
these underlying wounds.
So far, only Energy Therapies (Energy Psychology) has been
able to do this reliably, time and time again. There is no medication for social
phobia and social anxiety needed here – this is true healing, real
restoration, and then the behaviours follow suit naturally and as a direct
result of the fear, anxiety and terror having been entirely relieved.
There are three version of Energy Therapies such as EFT and
EMO, all of which are highly relevant and contribute in their own way to
healing (curing) social anxiety disorders.
- The
first is that an individual and even a young child suffering from
withdrawal, nervousness, shyness or the higher degrees of the social anxiety
disorders can treat themselves at any time they find their anxiety beginning
to rise;
- The
second is that another (a parent or a therapist, or a teacher who
understands Energy Psychology & Social Anxiety Disorders) can treat the
child if the child is too distressed or needs the help, care, attention and
guidance of an adult at this time;
- The
third is that another (usually the parent) can treat the child by proxy.
This means that if the child is unwilling or unable to take part in the
treatment, the parent can still perform the treatment in a shamanic style
quantum healing intervention which is highly successful.
Also, whenever children are being treated for social
anxiety related problems, to treat the parents as well or to offer the parents
of children with social anxiety problems a form of treatment that will help with
their own negative emotions of fear for the child’s welfare, feeling
inadequate or helpless, being overwhelmed and sometimes also angry and sad,
stressed out, tired out and exhausted.
It is well known that when the parents relax and take a
more cheerful attitude, it becomes a great deal easier for children with social
phobias to relax as well and make progress faster, finding a center of strength
and support in their parents which will help them with their self esteem and
greatly reduce anxiety in social situations, even when the parents are not
present.
It is highly recommended for the parents of children with
social phobias, school phobias, social anxiety and similar disorders to consult
with an Energy Therapies specialist. This is very cost effective and fast in
comparison to all other available treatments; changes will become apparent
within the first session and also, Energy Therapies practitioners versed in EFT
and EMO, for example, charge ordinarily considerably less than standard
psychotherapists. EMO is particularly effective with children and people
who have problems speaking their mind or finding the right words during a
treatment session. EMO Practitioners can be found at http://EmoTrance.com

For adults seeking to overcome social phobias, social
anxiety and including commitment phobia, fear of intimacy, fear of relationships
and the like, a good step is to start with a free self help protocol which is
available from http://123EFT.com
Both EFT & EMO can be used “in the field”,
i.e. in the situations themselves which cause the social phobia or anxiety to
crest; this aspect alone makes these two forms of the new Energy Psychology
treatments of unprecedented value and help to anyone suffering from these
debilitating fears and terrors.
