Emotional Freedom Techniques
Emotional Freedom - Physical Freedom - Performance Freedom
It often works where nothing else will
in Search
EFT was originally developed to reduce the therapy process from months/years down to minutes/hours. As emotional problems faded, both physical health and personal performance improved (often dramatically). As a result, EFT is spreading quickly among the healing community. It is an emotional version of acupressure wherein certain meridian release points are gently stimulated by tapping on them with the fingertips.

    Re: CFS and the starting point

     Thank you Marian, thank you Noreen!

     

    ok then I'll go on with it and EFT and see how it goes. I guess I'll know when I have to stop.

     

    Great, other resources to read! thanks Noreen, I'll have a look! all this is so interesting! and since I'm not working, I have plenty time for myself and healing. I realize I spend too much time in front of the TV instead of doing things for myself but I sometimes like to forget why I am home.

     

    have a great evening!

    Re: CFS and the starting point

    Hello Marian,

    I understand your very important point. The degree of difficulty or stuckness in  one's health can create panic or a sense of urgency and one way to deal with the difficulty is to sample the choices available, not randomly but as you know, the universe presents us with options and gives us the opportunity to  take responsibility.  Different approaches and tools might help carry you through at different times.  Sometimes, it can feel like chaos but it is out of this chaos that knowing and insights come.

     

    Hello Caro,

    I do think you have been offered some valuable information and I hope that you find your own way.

    Best wishes,

    Fabienne

    carolinejili:

    I've had CFS for years now but from what I understand, my weak point is the intestines, apparently they are damaged which causes candidiasis, thyroid issues (hashimotos), viruses to emerge chronically (EBV etc), sensitivities to some food and susbtances etc.. 

     


    It's an energy condition.

    Homolateral repatterning - Re: CFS and the starting point

    Bandler:

    That energy condition of "homolateral" can be easily normalized with  a "homolateral repatterning drill".

    That drill takes about 3-5 minutes to do.

    Since you've had it long term you probably need to do that drill 4-5 times a day.

     

     

    I found this easy how-to on http://www.yinyanghouse.com/practitioner_members/general-energywork/correcting-homolateral-energy-flow

    A simple exercise called “homolateral repatterning” can correct the pattern, encouraging the body’s energies to cross as they are intended to do. However, it must be repeated consistently for about a month, or the body will revert to what is most familiar. When this occurs, the client must start the process all over again. To correct homolateral energy, one starts with same side marching. The right hand meets the right knee as that knee is lifted; then the left hand meets the left knee, and so on. Those marching steps are repeated 4-6 times. Then one marches again, crossing first the right arm at the midline to touch the left knee, then the left hand to touch the right knee. This crossing march is repeated 4-6 times. Together, this constitutes one set. Usually the pattern will switch after the set is repeated 3 times.

    Re: CFS and the starting point

     thank you very much Blander and Suzanne!

    I had never heard of these exercises and I find it really interesting!  I have found another great link:

     http://www.ehow.com/how_5724945_homolateral-crossover.html

     

    will try that from now on! plus EFT and healthy diet, it should all help.

     

    I'm not severly affected though as I'm not bedbound or anything. Now my blood test results have improved slightly except for candidas and viruses. For the first time I had a lymphocyte count done and I dont really know what it means but I have too low T3 and T4 but very high NK1 and 3. So I guess my immune system is disturbed. Will ask my doc about this.

     

    thanks for your help!

     

    Caroline.

    Re: CFS and the starting point

    Hi Caroline,

    A few things spring to mind as an ex - M E ( CFS ) sufferer of 12 years and a 'sensitive' soul !

    I agree with most of the comments and suggestions but wanted to add that Gwyneth Moss's 'Imagineering technique' could be worth a try with your damaged intestines.

    If you haven't tried it maybe take a look ?

    Also I discovered several years ago i am/was carrying an emotion from my mum's womb.. at my age it was a relevation.

    I still haven't sorted it all out, in fact sometimes the more I know , the less I know.

    I have asked this on several postings on CFS/ME..I contracted ME at exactly the same time as a colleague at work and that is the 'thing' that still bugs me and I have to be honest I have asked Master EFTers but all find it difficult to explain.

    Warmest wishes

    Re: CFS and the starting point

     hello MArie,

     

    thanks for your answer!

    I also carry sthg from the time I was in my mum's womb and working on it. they are so any things I need to tap on it's not always easy what to work on first! thanks for your recommendations, I4ll have a look at it!

     

    About your colleague having CFS too, could you too have a link? I mean by that sthg like a karma link, sthg u both have to live for some reason. Or did it started at work because sthg triggered ur symptoms? bad environment? are you friends with her? I always need to find explanation for everything because for me there is always one so I do understandit buggers you. You could tapon that, either u tap on letting go of the need to understand why or on u finding the reason why, not sure..

     

    good luck! and thanks for your input!

     

    warm regards,

    Re: CFS and the starting point

    Hi Carol

    We both knew absolutely it started at work, as we had both been in close contact on a visit ,.in company to a young trainee who a short while after, was hospitalised with gandular fever . He went blind unusually ,overnight but recovered sight after 24 hours.

    It was a long long time ago, and ME barely heard of.

    I picked up a leaflet somewhere ..a questionnaire on ME ..I had the hugest sense of relief as I knew this was putting a name to an illness so awful you could never describe...and giving it a name.

    Part of this questionnaire./info. was about being in contact with anyone with epstein barr fever ( glandular )

    Thats the reason I ask when I can because I always look inwards first.

    And being honest, words can never describe how totally all consuming illness wise M E is..for some reason you cannot think of anything, it robs your mind, your body & it felt for some time to me..my soul..my life was so empty ..my body & mind were empty.

    I know I had no facial expression, just a blankness and a constnat feeling of dread, apprehension & indeed fear

    I was at John Radcliffe Hospital one day awaiting a diagnosis after 12 years & remember seeing a lady being supported when walking with maybe her husband....

    I said to my late husband, God Bless him..' that was me'...he agreed.

    Absolutely devoid of any expression and  emotion,no colour, a blankness, shuffling along...frightening, it was like seeing myself.

    So...Interesting the 'womb' connection.

    Mine is 'something' to do with my mum not wanting to stay with her husband /my dad..she didnt want the pregnancy, there was an anger.

    Take care

    Warmest wishes

    Re: CFS and the starting point

    Caveat to my posting last night, on the news this morning that M E is possibly a viral disease and they are doing research on it.I missed a part of it that commented on the white blood cells I think being damaged.

    Interestingly, after 6 months and tests they found I had a really high white blood cell count which the specilaist said led him to believe I had been fighting off an infection,

    a positive placebo can heal.

    Hello Bandler,

    Maybe they don't know but 'possibly' is a wonderful word to many sufferers who are looking for an answer.

    Thank goodness for Gary's 'Palace of Possibilities' .

    Re: CFS and the starting point

     Hola MArie :-) Hello Bandler,

     

    Well I guess you caught EBV then, didnt you? IT's apparently the cuprit of many CFS sufferers but I dont know if there is a difference between CFS and chronic EBV really.. I dont know how they diagnose CFS as it is different from country to country. God you must have suffered a lot! I think I had the mild version of CFS really.

     

    I was diagnosed with CFS but I sometimes wonder if it was the right diagnosis. My problem is that my immune system is deficient and it seems like EBV caused this as my antibodies are still very high. Also I caught all sorts of viruses which are said to be linked to CFS like CMB, coxsakie, HPM.. some of them come back chronically. And then I have auto-immune thyroiditis so also linked to an immune disorder and candidiasis. My doc wants me to avoid dairies at all costs because of candidas and slight intolerance to casein, no sugar no gluten and tiny amount of carbs and well I dont think it's wise really, it's so strict it frustrates me so when I asked what am I gonna eat? she said veggies LOL I thought she was actually kidding me! because some people are fine with food they would be fine eating veggies all the time because they dont like eating but for me it's an ordeal really, eating is so important to me! oh dear so I have decided to bend the rules a bit. I played the tarot this morning and it says I have to ask another doctor for advice on the diet.

     

    So Bandler yes I guess it is a viral condition but if we see it from another point of you it is also an energy disturbance. I guess it's both, if the energy doesnt flow properly it can creat immune disturbance and then chronic viral condition.  BTW Bandlet I'm reading the napoleon Hill book it's great, thanks for the recommendation :-)
