No Drugs Involved ~ High Success Rate

A new innovation usually meets with scepticism because it violates people's beliefs. And EFT lies in the face of just about every belief there is about psychology and emotional healing. Rapid remedies for "difficult" emotional problems are, in some circles, considered impossible and anyone who purports to do them rapidly is labelled a charlatan. "After all", the belief goes, "these things are deeply ingrained in people and therefore they must take a long time to remedy." Beliefs are very powerful. We fight wars over them. We build monuments to them. Medicine, psychology and political systems are built on them. But, alas, sometimes they aren't true. We just think they are. Sometimes we believe in fairy tales. If your reaction to the promises made in the preceding pages includes an "it's too good to be true" attitude...or anything like that...then I have probably already violated your beliefs. This is healthy and to be expected.

New ideas should be subject to rigorous scrutiny. It lends them strength in the long run. You hold in your hand a major innovation. As you will see, it is based on the soundest of scientific principles. But because it is so dramatically different from "conventional wisdom," it is consistently, and understandably, greeted with scepticism. EFT is not alone in this. Other innovations have met with similar attitudes. Here are a few quotes from history:

"Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible."
Lord Kelvin, President Royal Society

"Everything that can be invented has been invented."
Charles H. Duell, Director of U.S. Patent Office, 1899

Hardly ever, does anyone say to me, "Oh...it's like
you said. You balanced their energy system while they
were tuned in to the problem and thereby eliminated the
cause." Yet that is what happened.

Often even the people making the changes will credit something else for creating the change. And it's usually something totally unrelated like a recent earthquake or a raise in pay they just received. Mind you, they don't deny the change occurred or that it happened while doing EFT. They just aren't able to link it with the tapping techniques. To them it doesn't compute. It doesn't make sense. There must be some other explanation. Dr. Roger Callahan, from whom I received my initial introduction to these procedures calls this the APEX problem.

Another reason for scepticism is that EFT looks weird. I mean really, really weird. These techniques will have you talking to yourself, rolling your eyes around in your head and humming a song while tapping on various parts of your body. They don't even remotely resemble psychology as most people know it and may be waaaay outside your belief system.

However once you understand the logic behind them, these techniques become obvious. And you may wonder why they weren't discovered earlier. That being said, here's an interesting aside. You do not have to believe in these techniques for them to work. Some people mistakenly conclude that EFT gets results simply because people believe in it.

That is a particularly strange conclusion because it is usually made by those who are sceptical.
The fact is, people rarely believe in these techniques at first. They are almost always sceptical...at least to a degree. Despite the usual lack of belief by newcomers the results obtained by EFT occur undiminished. People make their improvements in spite of their scepticism.


P.S. As a reminder, please recall from our opening
comments that the emotional and energetic releases
brought about by EFT frequently result in profound
physical healings

THE END OF FEAR

The End of Fear

Our spiritual journey is one of learning, healing, growth and transformation.
Through each lifetime we are provided with opportunities to learn about
and heal our soul wounds, grow spiritually and transform into higher
vibrations of being. That sounds like a good plan while we are
contemplating our journey in spirit but once we are within the fear
lessons and have to deal with their effects, we are so can get so
focused on the fear that we forget about everything else. How do we
complete our fear lessons and move on, especially when they are so
challenging and affect us in such profound ways? The answer lies in the
emotions the fear creates and how they can help it end.

All of our fears have an emotional component. In fact, the fear is only
the messenger; the actual message is in the emotions that we feel.
For example, we may have a strong fear of water, but what we feel
when we are around water are the emotions we may have experienced
in a past life when we drowned, watched a loved one drown, were in
a flood or lost at sea. The emotions could be sadness, regret, anger,
hopelessness, helplessness, or the powerlessness that came from the
experience of losing our life, a loved one, being stranded, abused,
controlled, dominated or abandoned. They key to completing fear
is to understand the emotions that it is revealing and use them
as the basis of our healing work.

The emotional imprint from any trauma stays with us until we
understand and release it. And as we know the lessons
continue until we do. Our choice lies in whether we will
become a victim to the emotions or conquer them.
When we can see our fear as a reminder of past trauma
and the emotions as what we took with us from the
experiences, we know what we came to heal.
Then we can complete the fear cycle and release it.
Without the connection between the fear and the
emotion we are free from the control that this trauma
has on our life and no longer need to attract people
and situations to remind us of it.

Fear and emotions are part of our human experience
and what we each feel on an individual level is also
experienced in the collective. As we heal our own
emotional trauma we allow healing to occur on a
much broader level. We can complete our fear cycles
in this lifetime and have been given the teachers,
knowledge and spiritual understanding to do so.
What a blessing we can give to humanity and to the
planet with the healing of eons of emotional trauma
and the fears associated with them. This is how war,
poverty, hunger, discrimination, control, distrust,
revenge and abuses of power-all associated with
fear--will and heaven on earth can exist for everyone.
