Comments on: Learn EFT Tapping for Busting Through Cravings – The Renegade Health Show Episode #453 http://renegadehealth.com/blog/2009/12/03/learn-eft-tapping-for-busting-through-cravings/ Sun, 12 Feb 2012 22:16:21 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: David http://renegadehealth.com/blog/2009/12/03/learn-eft-tapping-for-busting-through-cravings/#comment-64526 David Tue, 08 Dec 2009 00:29:16 +0000 http://renegadehealth.com/blog/?p=2052#comment-64526 I was learning about EFT years ago, long before I started learning about raw foods. I got Gary Craig's DVDs and got some benefit from them, but after a while I started to be a bit uncomfortable with how regimented Craig's EFT approach really is. I watched several YouTube videos about EFT and I learned techniques from the videos I liked.I will never forget just how awesome it felt the first time EFT really started working for me, and I used it to help me work through old issues that had been holding me back. The sit tapping.com has some good videos. I got Donna Eden's Energy Medicine book, which I totally love. I recently got a DVD set from Eden, just so I could get her information from a slightly different angle. I use Donna Eden's energy medicine techniques almost every day and EFT every other day. EFT is an energy medicine technique, and the two really have a fundamental common basis. 'Even though' Gary Craig deserves a lot of credit for bringing EFT to lots of people, his approach itself is a bit restrictive, and I completely accept myself (just joking..). Check out Donna Eden - she has some great YouTube videos. If you're serious about growing emotionally - whether just getting older and wiser in a beautifully graceful way - and/or need to overcome old issues/wounds - the energy medicine/EFT techniques can be a big part of your overall self-care and health regimen. Look after your mind! Hope this is a helpful post for folks, David I was learning about EFT years ago, long before I started learning about raw foods.

I have no clear vision of what it is I want, nor where I want to be. When I start to think about it, I find that no, that isn't really me. Or I'll say to myself, yes, that would be nice, but it isn't a burning desire. Where is my passion? Where is my burning desire? What is holding me back?

I'm going to work through this with EFT right now! Good video! when I started tapping my face along with you guys, I felt this weird release of tension in my forehead.

EFT completely eliminated my worst craving over 2 years ago and it hasn't come back. Regarding the emotional things and why EFT doesn't work long term for some people. As Nick mentioned sometimes we crave foods because we're depleted in certain nutrients. It's the same with other health issues. We may be really depleted of a substance our brain or our nerves need and then the EFT will only give temporary relief. EFT is not a cure-all. When I had severe PMS due to my hormones not being broken down in my liver, EFT really helped to preserve me (and my family!) alive but next month the problem would be back again. When I detoxified my liver properly and got the heavy metals out of my body I never needed to EFT for PMS again because the underlying cause was gone. The liver is the seat of our emotions and a really dirty liver will contribute to emotional issues. Especially raw foodists who are in a constant state of detox can risk liver overload if their bodies contain toxins. EFT is fantastic for any kind of stress. If you're in the middle of a senseless & stressful conversation, excuse yourself and go to the bathroom and do a round of EFT. When you come back you can deal with it much better. We can't always avoid a boss or family member! EFT simply calms things down so we can be rational. Great show. EFT completely eliminated my worst craving over 2 years ago and it hasn’t come back.

I haven't done much work on my meridians so that was a real treat for me! I have a pretty sensitive system as it responds quickly things.

It is truly the Celestine Prophecy coming together. I am finishing a one year hypnotherapist program and incorporating EFT into my new practice. I truly have seen it work on everything! The power of intention and the body'e energy can create miraculous results. It really is a small world after all. Thank you! Just thrilled that all these wise minds are here in my home state of CT!

Jesus said "you will know them by their fruits" How can something which is helping people be wrong in Jesus' eyes? It doesn't make sense! Jesus was a healer too! PS.

I receive newsletters from both of you and had no idea you grew up together! I have seen Nick's sister, Jessica, but have never seen Nick. Um, really, really cute ;) sorry, just had to say that! Back to tapping, honestly, the only thing that has worked to relieve emotional pain, whether it's about insecurity, anger, fear, anxiety, etc., doesn't matter, tapping gives me immediate relief! Wow!

EFT has completely changed my life for the better. I discovered it about 9 months ago and do it almost everyday, sometimes for hours. I would like to advise people who aren't having lasting success to maybe go to an EFT practitioner (you can find a list on emofree.com) What I've found is when things won't get healed completely there is a reason it is there and it won't disappear completely until that reason has been addressed. It can be pretty abstract. I have had many, many experiences of memories coming up (during tapping) that I had previously repressed or dismissed as not that important. But when the underlying trauma was addressed the physical pain or situation in my life cleared up. I take the attitude that everything that has showed up in my life is a blessing and that "there is only God in this situation" that seems to shift the energy enough so that I can "see" what the blessing is, in other words, what needs to be healed. Don't give up on EFT if you aren't getting immediate results, this stuff works miracles! I would also recommend getting the DVD's from emofree.com. They are very profound and can help the beginner to dig up things in themselves that need to be healed. Happy healing!!!

It has only worked for a short time. I have used it on pain,depression,bad life experiences but it only lasted for a short time each time I used it. Self hypnoses works better for me.
