EmoTrance and EFT Master Practitioner John Blosse from Brighton, UK writes: I'm sometimes asked what I can heal people of, or what my success rate is. My answer to this is 'I don't heal anyone and the success rate is not mine. It doesn't and never will belong to me'. What's more, if someone tells you that they can heal your issue then they are coming from ego and your potential for healing will be limited.

EFT Master Practitioner Kelly Burch writes: A good friend of mine has an autistic daughter who is a young 18 year old. One of her main challenges is to do with handling her emotions in productive ways instead of lashing out, hiding away or making inappropriate choices. I thought that explaining what emotions are and how we can use them to help us would benefit her, but also benefit many others who feel bound or stuck by emotions. This is based on the beautiful and simple Emotrance technique by Dr Silvia Hartmann.

You’ve probably already heard that the old SUD scale is being replaced by the new SUE scale, but we know from some of your emails that many EFTers don’t know how or why to make the switch.

Today as ever, people seek enlightenment.

Many don't even know that they are seeking enlightenment and may think erroneously that they are seeking love, or wealth, or respect, or happiness; either way, human beings have a built in drive towards enlightenment.

But what is enlightenment, exactly? And if we knew what it was, would that make it easier to experience enlightenment ...?

What's Matrix Reimprinting all about? Want to see a Matrix Reimprinting session?

This live session, filmed a few months ago, deals with an intense frog phobia. The session starts off with classic EFT - then uses one of the Matrix Reimprinting techniques to locate the traumatic event behind the phobia. Matrix Reimprinting is then used to get resolution on the traumatic event.

In a very high percentage of cases, traumatic events, regardless of their intensity and nature can be resolved within one session of Matrix Reimprinting.

Not only is it very quick and relatively painless, traumatic memories can be re-written as positive ones and negative beliefs made into new resourceful beliefs.

The big "hang  up" in EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques for beginners is to find the right EFT set up or EFT opening statement - what you say when you tap your round of EFT.

Once you've done EFT for a while and with a few other people as well (which gives a much better perspective than always tapping only on yourself or wondering about your own problems) finding EFT set ups is easy, logical and natural. Here is a tip how to speed up learning how to find the right set up phrase or opening statement for EFT self treatment for beginners.

Sally Baker has put together an interesting and useful article on the application of Percussive Suggestion Technique, EFT and Hypnotherapy for emotional obesity.

AMT Trainer Peter Delves writes: "When using EFT some practitioners grapple with what words to use. Although the basics are addressed in standard trainings, this article describes one of the ways you can create language patterns to help the effectiveness of EFT. It is just one of the approaches which we will be covering at the special one day EFT Language Skills Masterclass on the 5th September."

A free self-help manual that teaches EFT, a cutting-edge mind-body healing technique, is available now at www.EFTfree.net. The EFTfree Manual  is a concise forty-four pages, but offers all of the basics and beyond for those who are interested in learning EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques).

Read on for more details.

The Setup Phrase is often an under-valued  part of EFT.   Many of us have used (and taken for granted)  the generic setup phrase that says  “Even though I have this ________,  I deeply and completely love and accept myself.”   This does work  ---  much of the time ---  but not always.

In this article, John Freedom looks at using different, personal set-up phrases to help overcome blocks to healing.

Nicola Quinn writes: "A lady phoned me last week desperate to know how to make the Dr. Claire Weekes’ method of overcoming panic attacks work. She was just too scared to try it out even though she knew in her heart, from what she had read, that if she could follow it through there was a very good chance she would be free from panic attacks forever."

In this article by AMT Director and author of Life Without Panic Attacks author Nicola Quinn explains how Dr Claire Weekes' methods can be used with EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques.

“If you are blaming the recession for a lack of clients, you are putting your attention in the wrong place. The reason you don’t have enough clients is nothing to do with the recession. It’s to do with your ignorance”

If you intend to get to a destination and you decide to go by train, would you turn up at the station and tell the ticket officer that you don’t want to go to Manchester, you don’t like Grimsby and you are unsure whether to go to Birmingham? The attendant would expect you to know where you want to go and what time you need to get there.

Why should affirmations be any different?

In this article AMT Trainer Cathy Dixon looks at ways we can improve our minds, both conscious and unconscious, using a combination of EFT and Hypnosis...

Carna Zacharias-Miller Writes: Here is a technique I developed that combines the clearing work of EFT with the PS Classic Game and the Genius Symbols. “Magical EFT” is not for everybody: Usually, EFT trauma work needs to be done before entering into this realm. However, I have noticed that EFT works faster (less rounds) and often in a gentler, more “tearless” way when done in this metaphorical framework...

We are all familiar with the standard Set-Up Phrase, “Even though I have this __________, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.” It is an all-occasion, one-size-fits-all magic formula that names and counters objections, antidotes Psychological Reversal, and ‘sets the stage’ for EFT to work. And, amazingly enough, it does work ---- most of the time...

Nicola Quinn Writes:The recent trend to drop the finger points, not helped by an article in which Gary Craig says he rarely uses them now, is deeply saddening and a big mistake in my view.

Here is why.

Have you heard this one?

"I (or someone I know) suffers from (insert ANY disease known to mankind). I'm thinking of using EFT - BUT do you know of anyone else who has successfully overcome/healed (disease X) and HOW did they do it?"

Sometimes, you can refer the person to an existing case history, which may or may not be relevant to this case in hand; sometimes you quote Gary Graig and shrug your shoulders and say, "Well just start tapping, Gary says to try it on EVERYTHING ..."

Angie Muccillo Writes: What is Imaginary Tapping?

“Imaginary tapping” is a useful technique children can use when they are in a situation where they are not physically able to tap, for instance during an activity where it is impractical to tap or in public where they may not want to be seen tapping.

Instead of physically tapping children can just think about the problem and at the same time imagine they are tapping by visualizing the tapping points.

Peter Delves writes: "Like many practitioners who work with energy therapies you may have set up a practice because you know the fantastic results that can be achieved with these techniques, and there are thousands of people out there who you could help. Setting up a practice means setting up a business. This means that to be successful it’s going to be beneficial to broaden your expertise beyond your therapeutic skills. Either that or be prepared to buy in the expertise that you don’t possess."

Read this fantastic new 'how to' article from Silvia Hartmann, PhD, on extracting EFT opening statements for self-help through the study of linguistic markers in people's speech. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced user, this is a must read for anyone engaging in the EFT process on a personal level or a professional level with clients.

We need to remove psychological reversal before we can remove the disturbing energy field.

Silvia Hartmann writes: Here is a full, practical and very powerful self help treatment protocol to reduce stress and all forms of anxiety. Included are three full self help protocols which will help lower adrenaline levels and prevent stress spikes - one for stabilising the stressed systems, one for in depth treatment of the symptoms associated with anxiety, and one to help dissolve anxious thoughts. Complete and free, with my compliments.

Silvia Hartmann writes: I am delighted to present this free, complete and fully illustrated book to serve as an introduction, review and overview of the mysterious worlds of "Energy", human consciousness, emotional and mental health as well as future development.

It has been well documented that we can work on removing obstacles towards goals with EFT by tapping on and "collapsing" each particular obstacle towards those goals, as we become aware of them. We can also work generally on "possible obstacles" if we are not aware of what might be obstructing our success in this endeavor.

The goal of improved self-esteem or feelings of self-worth is a process that requires a more methodical and dedicated process than overcoming most phobias.

Silvia Hartmann writes: Rather than initiating major change processes by tapping away blockages to begin with, which may cause the energy system to freeze or lock up, with this pattern we are going to MOTIVATING desire for change and indeed, creating that wholehearted drive towards new behaviours which is so essential for long term success, especially when dealing with addictions and major life style changes.
