Emotional Freedom Technique

How to EFT

2011-08-03T16:59:00.000-07:00

EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique is based on the 5000 year old Chinese Meridian System that modern acupuncturist use today
A Meridian System is a map of the body that shows where the lines of energy flow through the body.
A Meridian Point is a point on the body where several lines of energy meet.
When energy gets blocked in the body, physical and emotional discomfort in the body is the result.
We use EFT to unblock the energy system by tapping on the meridian points with our fingertips. We also use a simple and easy-to-remember set-up, reminder phrase and tapping sequence.
When the energy becomes unblocked, the physical and emotional discomfort disappears.

You'll be using the first two fingers of your hand to tap with.

The first point is the karate chop point. This point is on the fatty part of the outside of your hand. Or the place where you would make contact on your hand if you were going to karate chop something. Take your first two fingers of one hand and tap on the karate chop point of the opposite hand now.
The second point is the eyebrow point. Take your two fingers and place them on the beginning on the eyebrow. Begin tapping here.
The third point is the side of the eye. This point is on the bone at the end of the eye. It is not the temple. Begin to tap on it.
The fourth point is under the eye. This point is on the bone directly under the eye.
The fifth point is the nose point. This is the space between your nose and your upper lip
The sixth point is the chin point. This is the area between your lower lip and your chin. It is actually that crease in between the two places.
The seventh point is the collarbone point. Find the U between your two collarbones. Now go over about an inch. That is the point. It is not on the bone but in the corner where the two bones meet.
The eighth point is the underarm point. Raise your arm. It is about at the middle of the bra strap for women and parellel to the nipple for men.
The last point is the crown or head point. If you put your thumbs on the highest points of your ears and bring your first fingers up to meet each other on the top of your head, right where they meet in the center is the head point.

Psychological Reversal is a situation that exists when our conscious mind is not congruent or not in agreement with our subconsciousness mind. We tap on the karate chop point and say the Set-up Phrase three times to eliminate psychological reversal.

So while tapping the karate chop point, we say:

Even though I have this _______(insert your problem here), I deeply and completely accept myself.

So, for example, if your problem were anger, you would tap the karate chop point and say:

Even though I have this anger, I deeply and completely accept myself.

Even though I have this anger, I deeply and completely accept myself

Even though I have this anger, I deeply and completely accept myself.

The word anger would then become your reminder phrase. So while tapping 7 to 10 times on each point in the EFT sequence, you repeat the reminder phrase while focusing your attention on the problem. So begin with the tapping on the eyebrow point and say.

Eyebrow: This anger
Side of Eye: This anger
Under Eye: This anger
Nose: This anger
Chin: This anger
Collarbone: This anger
Underarm: This anger
Head: This anger

To Test for the Effectiveness of EFT
Before doing EFT, rate your problem on a scale from 0 - 10 with 10 being "the worst feeling" and 0 being "doesn't bother you" Then retest after EFT.

The theme of C-FAST is about finding your authentic self. It isn't about fulfilling some goal that you're settling for becasue you think it will be better than the thing you've got now. It's about learning to become your best self. It's about feeling the rightness of it inside. It's about your confidence increasing, you believing that you can do it because you are doing it. It's about setting aside the naysayers and moving confidently forward. It's about seeing the naysayers for what they are and why they are and not getting caught or distracted by them. It's about lifting the lid off the dome over your current reality, the big you picking up the little you, putting you in a safe place and blowing everything underneath the dome away, the big you cutting a door in the dome so that you can get in and out whenever you want and you letting anyone or anything else in or out. It's about starting over and purposely choosing what things you will have in this new reality and what things you choose not to. It's about turning the baby god into a 10 year old god who has the ability to consciously create, to use the 10 year olds incredibly enhanced ability to clearly see the causes and effects and to make adjustments as necessary.

"What one man can do another can do."
-The Edge

Face your fears and the death of fears is certain.
-W. Clement Stone

Q: Why is SuperMind and the Subconscious not widely known and taught?
A: Because the MIND is free. It comes at birth "no charge" and therefore the common perception is that which is free has no value.

Authentic Self

2008-10-05T08:53:00.001-07:00

Let's fix the world. Yea, you heard me. What if I told you that if enough people took care of their own business and joined together to neutralize and eliminate the negative charges behind their similar experiences that in a short time they would see changes on a global scale, changes in politics, environment, the economy, healthcare and on an individual level, changes in the mental, physical, spiritual and literally, incredible changes in their physical realities.

That's what the C-FAST program is about. A step by step system that gets people connected, brings them back to their truths, helps them remember and become once again their authentic selves.

I remember who I was/am. I remember why I took the path I did and what I have been trying to achieve all these years and why I have been trying to achieve it.

I feel sadness that it all went the way it did but I see why too and that it couldn't be helped. That's the cause for the sadness, that it couldn't be helped.

The incongruence between the person that I had the potential and connection to be and the person I have been all these years is in startling contrast.

The person who I am now in my day to day living set against the person I could still be is also in startling contrast.

EFT and C-FAST has saved my life. Years and years of effort and struggle and frustration and self punishment and no connection. Closed down. Closed off from yourself. What? How the heck? Oh my gosh. O my.

Fine tuning. Fine tuning.

That's why I wanted to write. There was something unique and authentic and deep and true back then about it.

That place you go in your mind and mood when truth just slides from your pen and sometimes it's somber but always creative and always unqiue and new and never been done or said that way before and it feels good inside you because it's connection and clever and deep and meaningful and incredibly thought provoking and unique and you're the artist. You are the artist!

That's where I was when things.... Things. How? Why? Was it because to block out some things you block out all things?

You think you're achieving some great victory because you've flicked every dark thought off of you like it was a hot ash and now you've successfully banished it forever, you think.

But what you've done is suppress it. And one morning you wake up and there's something intrinsically different and all of a sudden even though you've taken all the steps you normally do, the inspiration is harder in coming and for the first time in your life you have the worry that it might not come. But it does and you make it through.

And then you're on to the next phase. The reality shift is concurrent with these other things and you think that you were just tired of them anyway. So it's time. Nothing here for you.

And you move into an environment where there is even less for you. But the clouds of that environment have your focus and attention and it's all you can see. You try to connect, reconnect, remember who you are but the world is chanting its responsibility song and there's pressure all around you to conform.

You try to remember. You do things where connection was stronger but there's no through. The world's voice gets louder. Yours become more vague and less easy to hear.

I've been haunted by this dream I once had: These strange people were holding me hostage. Their method was so complete and so encompassing that I knew I would only get one chance to escape. So I meticulously laid the ground work and patenitly waited for just the right moment. And then I took it. And I escaped. I thought I had made it. Then all of a sudden there they were. And they were laughing about it making me realize that I'd only thought I'd gotten away.

I can't begin to describe the desolation I felt. The complete lack of hope. The darkness that this was all my life would ever be and that basically my life was over and I was in hell.

That you can go to such a dark place, that you can feel imprisoned in such a dark place, that you can feel such deep desolation and hopelessness and resignation.

It had a frightening meaning for me. It showed me how dead my soul could be. Maybe it was a reflection of the imprisonmnet my soul already felt.

So that I'm where I am now is nothing short of a miracle.

I didn't think anything could or would answer my prayers, see my pain or pining or even care. No hope for me.

You don't get second chances. It's in the bible. It's what the catholic church teaches too. You don't get second chances. So you're life is over and you're in eternal hell and that's that. You're in a place that doesn't reflect the truth of you. You're in a place where you can't even remember the truth of you. You have the map but you can't benefit from it. You don't know where the land is that the map symbolizes. You can't find the land.

I'm telling you now though that it's not true. There are as many chances as you need.

Sometimes I think I've slipped into another dimension because this world, this reality, looks way different than the dark one I was describing. Here, things that can make a difference do suddenly appear. In the other world they didn't. Here people can band together and make a difference. In the other world they couldn't. No difference would be made if they tried. In this world people aren't afraid to band together and try. In the other world, the potential consequences kept them in check.

This is what I know. Things have changed. That's all I'm saying. That's all I need to say. Things have changed. That's everything!

Divine Assignment

2008-09-21T06:02:00.000-07:00

"You are allowed to disengage from what doesn't serve your divine assignment."

While I was re-reading Joe Schroeder's "SuperMind", I saw this quote. I didn't remember reading it the first time but that's not really surprising.

There is just so much high level content in SuperMind that I'll be reading it over and over and probably for years to come and still seeing things I don't remember seeing before.

Now that is true value.

But that quote really struck me.

It kind of put things in perspective for me.

I had been feeling confused, disoriented, had too much on my mind, was feeling stuck and not knowing how to move forward.

But when I read that line, I saw one thing in particular that was not serving my divine assignment and suddenly I knew that I needed to eliminate it.

Furthermore, I also suddenly realized that the feeling to eliminate it had been inside of me for a long while, but with so much noise and lack of clarity going on inside of me, I had just ignored it. I was kind of doing like the proverbial "running around like a chicken with it's head cut off" thing.

So, I took the initiative and eliminated it. It wasn't even a big thing really. It didn't involve my husband and kids or work or anything that was going to drastically change my life in anyway.

It was more of a thing that was going to save me a little money and eliminate an untruth in my life. That was it.

But when I eliminated it, a cascade of events immediately fell into place. My thinking became crystal clear and an avalanche of good fortune suddenly fell my way.

Think the little things don't matter?

I have "shifts in reality" proof that they do.

Joe Schroeder is Stuck on Stupid

2008-08-10T06:17:00.000-07:00

William Gairy or Gairy Williams, whatever his name was, did a Million Mind March inner sanctum call where his message was about living in the present and one of his phrases was "Joe Schroeder is stuck on stupid" What he meant was that Joe Schroeder lives in the present. A strange way to say it, and one would think certainly insulting to Joe Schroeder, but as Joe promoted the call, I guess it was all right with Joe.

Now, there are certain things Joe Schroeder preaches but doesn't practice. For example, he always says and has written in his books, "Do what you say you're going to do", but he doesn't always. Granted that Joe Schroeder is operating on a higher plane of existence than I am and so has the spontaneously right action thing going. In other words, how could Joe give you a message or lesson that he can see that you desperately need if he doesn't have the freedom to do whatever he needs to do to get that message across. But it puts you in a position where you're afraid to tell people what Joe will do if you are not sure yourself what Joe will do. If you want enlightenment and you're willing to take some confusion and hurt and anger along with it while you figure out the lesson, then Joe's your man. His message is absolutely brilliant. His books are absolutely brilliant. His inner sanctum calls are absolutely brilliant. I don't think there is anything out there like it.

But today I got an autoresponder letter from Joe retracting his praise of Eckhart Tolle and saying Oprah wasn't promoting Jesus. Good news for me, I have a mind of my own and I'm not going to believe some nonsense no matter who tells it to me. I listened to the You Tube blurb on the subject. I'd also seen it before as some fool somewhere had previously sent it to me.

Really, do you think God or Jesus cares if you call it the Source, the Universal, the Universe, the Infinite Organizing Power, the I AM, the All That IS, the Original Substance, the Christ or any of a number of names that people come up with that they're more comfortable with. It all means the same and the learning behind it is the same. I read a poem in college. Unfortunately, I can't remember the poet so I can't give credit where credit is due in this instance, might have been Alexander Pope, but not sure, but it says, "They know your name, but know you not. I do not know your name but know you."

Who do you suppose the poet was talking about?

Now, I'm not a big gotta-see-Oprah fan. I've probably seen her show maybe three times in my life. I know a lot of people who don't miss an episode and actually tape her show when they have to miss it. It's Oprah this, Oprah that, Oprah says... In other words, I see that people are being fed spiritually through Oprah and I see that she's opening people's minds to life and the truth and helping people take the next step past their own emotional and physical garbage. I see that she's made huge strides in her own life, but that's as far as it goes for me. I have my own sourses of inspiration and Oprah isn't one of them. So, I don't have any of that I-love-Oprah-and -Joe-Schroeder-has-slammed-her nonsense going.

When I read Joe's autoresponder letter, I felt disappointed. Despite Joe's brilliance, are there moments when Joe is stuck on stupid?

Life Is My Teacher

2008-08-03T14:52:00.001-07:00

It used to be when something happened that I didn't want to happen, I felt overwhelmed and discouraged and frustrated and aggravated and all those other emotions that go along with it.

I'm 48 years old and after 48 years you collect a lot of garbage that doesn't go away.

So, when another bad thing occurs, that's just another piece of garbage that you're supposed to find solutions to or worry about until it disappears by itself.

It's been exhausting.

I'm noticing lately though that when something happens that I don't like and didn't want to happen, I'm seeing it differently.

Now I know that it's drawn to me because of blocks I have inside of me.

Until I came across EFT I had no way to eliminate the blocks and believe me I've tried everything in the world.

So it's truly a victory for EFT and me that when something comes up, I realize now that it's my body trying to clear and that I now have a tool to achieve the clearing.

My experience is that if it's something big, it will take about a week. You don't always know what the issues are and a weeks worth of tapping will reveal the issue and once you find it, do one round of tapping to it, it's gone. Forever.

Reality changes.

Amazing.

Success is Scarey

2008-07-10T19:12:00.001-07:00

Success is Scarey

Alot of things going on with the success issue.

Like losing yourself and not being able to find yourself.

That was a scarey thing for me.

The self image you have now and the image you're imagining that you'll have if you do the things they're telling you to do and the two don't match.

You're way over here and in order for those other things to happen you'd have to be way over there and you don't know who that person would be or how that person would feel.

But probably even more importantly, you don't know how the transition will come about.

Fear.

It's why you choose certain subjects over other subjects when you're going to college.

Do I have the potential to be an engineer or a chemist?

Heck no!

My level of intelligence is no where near that.

When you get out of your element then stresss is the result.

My question though is whether I'm able to become those things?

Am I able to do those things and still maintain the integrity of my identity?

Sometimes life makes you do things that are hard for you to do but are good for you.

My question to myself is how do I know which thing is which?

How do you know if it's something that will ultimately be good for you or something that is incongruent with you and will cause you to lose your way.

The ability to be clear in my thinking and the ability to make sound business decisions.

Fair and Unfair

2008-07-08T16:13:00.000-07:00

I made a cognitive shift today while tapping. It was on the subject of unfairness. I was angry about someone at work receiving preferential treatment.

And while I was tapping, I realized that I had a lot of unfairness issues manifesting in my life.

Joe Schroeder says that "What you give away, you get to keep."

I give "being fair" away all the time.

I've been outraged lots of times on other's behalf at the unfairness I've witnessed and when I was able to intervene and do something about it, I have.

It's been that way since I was a child.

So, it seems like if Joe's statement that "What you give away, you get to keep" were true, then being treated fairly would be my reward. Why not? I give fair away all the time.

But that was not what was happening in my life. I could site lots of examples in the past and in my current reality where I witnessed unfairness to others and myself.

So suddenly, during my cognitive shift, it occurred to me that I believed that fairness was a moral principle and unfairness was breaking this principle.

But what if fairness/unfairness wasn't the issue or even relevant to anything that actually really existed.

What if my outrage about myself and others being treated unfairly was a block that I had an emotional charge on?

And what if, based on the law of attraction, this emotional charge was drawing similar situations to me where I witnessed unfairness or was treated unfaily.

Which, of course, once again, had the effect of provoking my outrage and anger.

And it would continue like some vicious non-stop never-ending cycle that reoccurs and reoccurs until you figure out the true lesson of it.

So if this new analysis of the situation were true, then Joe's statement that "What you give, you get to keep," would also be true.

What I'd been giving out was outrage and anger over unfairness and what I was getting was more outrage and anger over unfairness.

If I cleared this block, would I stop drawing those kinds of situations to me?

Or would those situations still exist but I wouldn't notice them anymore because I no longer had any emotional charge on them?

Or would I see those situations and simply realize that those people who were drawing those situations to them were doing so because of their own emotional blocks about fairness and unfairness.

What if all the truths I thought I knew were actually incorrect thinking that had turned into blocks holding me and others in a place none of us even wanted to be in.

So I decided to take care of things on my end and see what happened.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Who's Got Word For Joe Schroeder?

2008-05-24T08:17:00.000-07:00

I went on the Million Mind March Inner Sanctum call last night. Joe came on and said, "Who's got word for Joe Schroeder? Who wants to tell Joe Schroeder what they've gotten out of this so far?"

I thought about speaking up. I've only been a member of the Million Mind March for a short while, less than a month. I actually faxed in my application April 29, 2008 to be exact. It was the day after one of Diane Hochman's conference calls and I was all pumped up. "Yes. I want that training. I want that truth. Here's my application. Show me mind-set. Inspire me into action. I'm ready for the next right step."

I wanted to say to Joe: "Truth. You've given me Truth with a capital T. Everything you say is Truth. I can feel it in every cell in my body. It's the Truth I was born with but it's new and it's fresh and it's authentic. Other people teaching mind-set and law of attraction are underneath of it looking up. But Joe Schroeder is on top of it looking down. And I hear and see that when you speak and other people hear and see it too. That's what attracts all of us so thoroughly to these calls. And we don't care that they start at midnight and that we have to be up at 6:30 in the morning. The message is worth it."

But before I had time to even decide if I was really going to speak up, a man spoke up and gave word. And Joe gave word back. And when Joe asked again. Another man spoke up immediately and gave word. And Joe gave word back. And when Joe asked again, another man jumped in and gave word. And Joe gave word back.

Joe told us to grab a pen and a spiral notebook, go to a place where we'll have quiet, make ourselves comfortable and get ready for the workshop. He said, "One of you needs to go to the garage and get into your car just because that's what works for you."

He was talking about me. I won't go into the why's of it, but it was me. And I thought he must be intuitive or something. I thought: if he says my name tonight, that will absolutely blow me away. He didn't say my name. He didn't intuit it. He didn't pull it out. He didn't say Chris Case. But....

He talked about me .

The call was about being your authentic self, finding yourself, your truth, your divine assignment. He said, "Cows and dogs don't have the mind of God. They've not done anything new for 20 years. And there are people on the same level. They've not done anything new for 20 years."

I thought about my own life and the people I know. Most of them are all on the level of cows and dogs. The drama and trauma in their lives change but the theme or pattern is still the same. There are a few who pretend that they've discovered their divine assignment, but you can't see it in their lives of hear it in their words. Most don't even know what true self or divine assignment means.

He said, "Poverty consciousness is living in an economy of me, alone, with no ties to the universal and you're thinking and feeling my life sucks and everybody and everything sucks."

He said, "Poverty consciousness keeps us inhibited, makes us afraid to talk to strangers or do things that we believe would be out of line with the way we think we and other people are supposed to behave."

I thought about me hesitating when Joe said, "Who's got word for Joe Schoeder." I thought about the reasons why I hesitated. I thought about the flyers I'd made up advertising my workshop on Conquering Emotional Overeating with EFT and the reasons I'd had for not hanging them up. And I recognized the Poverty Consciousness in me.

But I also thought about what an incredible amount of progress I'd made in such a short span of time. I had the flyers made up. My mind-set is way different than it was a month and a half ago. I'm attracting total strangers who suddenly pop into my life and give me Word. I've got Leadership members helping me set up blogs and teaching me things I never even knew existed or thought I would ever be capable of doing. In other words, I AM developing Prosperity Consciousness.

My prosperity prospers 10,000 people and their prosperity prospers me.

Word!
