Emotional Freedom Techniques

I have been looking into EFT and downloaded the free manual and will be trying it in the days to come. Gary Craig claims to be the founder of EFT and has a website at the following link: http://www.emofree.com/

I will post my results after I read the manual and try this.

My friend, who happens to be my first cousin, sent me the following email which peeked my interest. Here's the email:

Hey Hoss---Sorry to not have sent you some stuff----and thanx for all the cool shit you sent:)I have been buried in art work from Paul and taking care of Nan is beginning to tax my available time.This EFT thing is getting really interesting. The entire premise of the EFT practice is that all physical ailments appear because of a disruption in the body's energy system. In simpler terms--- it is Acupuncture without the needles. The body is held together by 14 electrical meridians. When there is a blockage of electrical transfer in any of those lines----a physical symptom will appear. Blockages consist of emotional disturbances. Example: A woman came to an EFT practitioner with 3rd stage ovarian cancer. She came with MRI results showing the tumors around her ovaries. She worked with the EFT person for two days prior to a scheduled surgery to remove the tumors. Of course, there was a certainty that at this stage(3), there would be a massive spreading from the infected area.When the surgical team opened her up---there were NO tumors! And----there was no evidence that the cancer had spread anywhere. The amazing part is that the EFT practitioner had been able to discover, for this woman, that the root cause of her tumors was a popsicle. It seems that when she was three years old, her mother took her and her older sister out to the park and bought a treat for the sister but would not give her one until she learned to eat all her nutritious food at home. Her mother was trying to do a good thing in trying to get the 3 year old to eat better since she was prone to eating only sweet treats. To the three year old, it was devastating. She thought her mother did not love her and she carried that emotional scar all of her life and was not even aware of it. That would be no big deal for a grown up child----but it was the end of the world for a three year-old!That emotional upset blocked some of her meridians and would not allow the proper transfers of electrical energy to the affected organs. It would have taken a physichiatrist years and years to find the root cause---to identify the scenario which caused the emotional blockage---even if either one of them could ever have suspected a popsicle! EFT found it in less than a day and relieved it the next day.The magic of this is that just by tapping the meridians and bringing the attention of both hemispheres of the brain to the problem, hidden emotions begin to surface and can be quickly discarded. The body heals almost instantly after the blockage is found and understood.I have not discovered who was the original author of this method, but it is evident that the guy understood quantum physics. Since Einstien figured out E=mc squared---the real bright guys knew that matter does not really exist. It never has and it will not ever. Albert could not say that he knew back in the day. If he had, he would have been relegated to the looney bin:). It was the same for the early QP guys. How could you tell someone that they really did not exist as a body of matter in a finite universe? How could you back up the fact that they discoverd? That fact was that the "Observed cannot be separated from the observer". In layman's terms---it means that you create your own reality.Even with the knowlege we are all pretty much aware of----does it make sense to you that the life you think you live is only a recollection? Does the statement---"You are always one step removed from actual reality by your description of the world", make any sense to you?Well--might as well give you some more shit to make your brow wrinkle:) The way you experience the world is called the "Experiential Loop". It comes in four parts. 1)Your waking consciousness, 2) the brain and the other two computers of the body which comprise the ego, 3) the 'subconscious'(for purposes of discussion only), 4) Super conscious.Here is how it works----The computers in your body retain all your memories of your life thus far----every action you think you ever took, every belief you ever had. They comb the past and provide you with a scenario for you to project into what you think is your future, all based on the limited past. Your waking conscious accesses the scenario in the form of images provided by the body. Now the brain hands the scenario over to the subconscious which is imprinted with your conscious mind's beliefs or filters. The subconscious applies all the filters, taps the super conscious for the power to create it in what you think is your solid reality,(seemingly outside of you) then creates the images according to your beliefs, for you to experience.Now, the Super conscious, your real self, keeps sending what is actually real through the subconscious, not what the ego/body/computers are showing you---and you occasionally receive those things as hunches/urges/wants. That is, when you are not busy with the illusion the body is showing you.So Hoss---what you see everyday you are awake is an illusion. You choose it because of the beliefs ABOUT reality that you have developed through the teachings of teachers, parents and priests----and the influence of the ego.Your conscious mind is not aware of the super conscious which lends the power of creation through the subconscious. It believes the ego(computers) compilation of images out of your past which suggest a future, thereby eliminating the "Now", which is where real reality actually exists----where you have real power.We have all developed a description of the world, at the suggestion of the ego, which is handed off to the subconscious to produce an illusion of the world for you to see. Your conscious mind is always in charge and it really believes in the computer's bullshit.Everything you see is subjective. Simply a product of your acquired beliefs. The ego has convinced you of limitations so that its function can remain alive. Know this---Mind = conscious + subconscious. The ego has inserted itself in between. without it, you can see the real world which you chose when you decided to be born into the space-time environment. the real path is right below the illusion. I think that EFT is the shortcut to fuck the ego out of it's illusional domain.OK---I have burnt your ears and your mind. Take a look and ask some questions---or say fuck dat---and we will leave it alone. what I think is that you have an excellent brain---not to mention the spectacular brain of your wonderful spouse. Brain is mechanical---not mental.Mental is of another realm. It is your native realm.
