Afraid of answering the phone and returning calls
I recently answered a query from a person who has a terrible time answering the phone; she doesn’t. She let’s it ring, and feels tremendous stress while it is ringing, and even more when she has to return the call, particularly if it is to someone like her boss, or anyone else in a position…

Persistent energy exercise needed for chronic conditions
One of the challenges with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and other long term systemic conditions is that the energy system is often weak. If you think of muscles atrophying after a year in a hospital bed, you get the picture. Therefore, any approach for a chronic condition, I feel, needs to incorporate a broad range of…

How important is strength and accuracy in tapping?
How important is the strength and accuracy of the tapping ? Would there be any increased benefit tapping with greater intensity ? First, accuracy. As a massage therapist and energy practitioner, I can easily feel when the client has hit the “right spot” whether I am tapping on the person or tapping along on myself.…

It is common for people who are depressed and trying to use EFT by themselves to have mixed results.

What if I get really emotional at the “wrong” time?
I believe in the body’s intelligence. I have seen intense emotions come up at the perfect time for them to be healed, both for myself and for my clients. What I love about EFT is that it can very often process through the big, deep stuff in a way that minimizes emotional pain. Gary Craig…

What Are Your Daily Stresses?
I’m curious… what are the things that cause you stress on a daily basis? What seems to come up 3-5+ times per week as you move through your day that annoys, angers, depresses, or even scares you? The stresses you choose can be big, small, or even silly. It doesn’t matter. If you experience it…

Make Way for Baby
Last night was one of those client sessions that leaves me feeling so grateful to have the opportunity to do this work. I have been working regularly with Jennifer, a friend and one of my former classmates in massage school. She is 37 weeks pregnant with her second daughter. The baby has been sitting head-up…

How often should I tap if I have anxiety and depression?
If you approach EFT as an intervention when you start feeling anxious, or you are feeling down and depressed, it can help restore the state of your energy system. EFT can, in fact, provide some people with miraculous changes very quickly. What I recommend to my clients with chronic conditions is that you spend 30…
