Hi Silvia (this is fun). You wrote:

Well.... I think they'd be out of it pretty quickly. If they were petrol
station workers with no understanding of the human mind, then I reckon they
probably wouldn't have the confidence to even try becoming a therapist. If
they did have a try, and failed because they have a total lack of
understanding of humanity, then it would be too painful for them to hang
around doing it. Just as I wouldn't set myself up as a chef (heaven forbid).
 

I used to know people who learnt to read the Tarot cards. Most people read
them on the basis of what the pictures say, and the written interpretation.
A really good Tarot reader is psychic and deeply spiritual, and takes things
to another level. I reckon Gary's tapes would give someone the textbook
ability to act as an EFT therapist. Results might not always be spectacular
and they might go out of business pretty quickly. The therapist, or the
person who has studied the 'reason for being' might be more successful. I
guess we're talking about gifted, talented, experienced, rather than
particular qualifications (accepting that trained counsellors and therapists
have all sorts of tools they can bring to the party, along with their
passionate commitment to healing minds).

But.... I still think we ought to be saying that EFT can be used by anyone.
Because I think it can - it's up to us, who love this therapy, to enthuse and
inspire.

Love
Catherine
