Worry, the Immune system, and EFT

Worry, the Immune system, and EFT

I am a London EFT practitioner in the process of overcoming my chronic disease, for those of you new to this blog. If you are already a visitor, welcome and thank you for visiting my EFT blog again. Any amount of stress has the potential to adversely affect the immune system.I have been experiencing some stress from having to pay a reasonably large tax bill. My muscles were more sore from the gym than expected, so I massaged them as I said "I can do this", rubbing EFT points along the way. The muscles softened, and I was ready for a new day. When you have a chronic physical condition, anything that either emotionally or physically has a negative impact on you can make the condition worse. EFT is one way of throwing away the emotional rubbish collecting in your system. In the same way that we dispose of our household rubbish regularly for home cleanliness and hygiene, I use EFT to dispose of negative emotions for my optimal physical health.--Disclaimer - You are advised to consult with your medical practitioner before embarking on any course of alternative, complementary, or beauty therapy.

Work Stress Relief with EFT

I am a London EFT practitioner in the process of overcoming my chronic disease, for those of you new to this blog. If you are already a visitor, welcome and thank you for visiting my EFT blog again. Enjoy your stay. EFT for any serious physical condition requires the release of emotional stress. Over and over again as new stresses occur. I had been under considerable stress at the new clinic, having to learn many clinic staffing strategies fast and making mistakes along the way. Today I had a meeting which had been playing on my mind so much, I was too freaked out to tap properly beforehand (it happens to us EFT practitioners too).After the meeting, I did a relaxing workout at the gym, after which I did stretches, and with each stretch repeating "It's now safe to let go of this". I felt the release go through me as the stretches progressed. In the shower, I tapped. And after a short sauna, I had another shower, lay down on a recliner chair, and rubbed my finger points. I kept repeating "it's safe to let go now". Still repeating this, I rubbed…
Laser Hair Removal and Emotions

Laser Hair Removal and Emotions

I thought I'll let you catch up with my hair removal news. I had planned to do laser treatment for the unwanted hair I got as a result of steroids I'd been given before EFT really turned the corner for me. The IPL laser hair removal treatment never happened in the end. This is because I have an underactive thyroid for which I am on thyroid medication. When I was told this, I only thought "how nice of Reya to be so caring and honest with me". If I had not done all that tapping on it earlier, I would have been devastated. I am of course naturally disappointed but not devastated. Now I am starting to think about various treatments for my thyroid with EFT and other stuff. Although I did start working on it with EFT for root causes (cleared now), I am holding fire on taking it further. This is for financial reasons, as I would need medical supervision for which is no budget for it right now. Watch this space!

Allergic to wine? Does alcohol make you wheeze?

Allergic to wine? Does alcohol make you wheeze?

I am in the pub after a long day at the clinic. I've had a drink. I breathe freely. This is now the norm but is still new to me since falling ill way back when. All I did was direct the energy to the main tapping points for me and said "I accept this alcohol, I breathe" When you have a chronic physical condition, anything that either emotionally or physically has a negative impact on you can make the condition worse.

EFT and Buteyko work for this London EFT Practitioner

EFT and Buteyko work for this London EFT Practitioner

The EFT for nose-breathing (Buteyko) is still working. Last night I started getting a blocked nose in my sleep, which woke me up to deal with it. It is unusual for me to get a blocked nose now due to EFT.  I think it was because I am under pressure with a new marketing campaign at the moment, as well as having to find two new multi-skilled EFT practitioners. I lay on my side half-awake and simply tapped on the Outside of the Eye while closing the other nostril. I connected to the stress I am going through and the nostril opened. I moved my hand from my nose and noticed both sides were now open anyway. I fell asleep immediately. Breathing is something I used to take for granted, and it is so debilitating to lose this natural function. Do you know someone who needs help breathing better with less (or no) medication? Maybe I can help. When you have a chronic physical condition, anything that either emotionally or physically has a negative impact on you can make the condition worse.

EFT, Buteyko and Breathing  through my Nose

EFT, Buteyko and Breathing through my Nose

I have the results of combining EFT with Buteyko breathing techniques from last night! Just before going to sleep, I tapped on the Top of the Head Under the Eye, and on the Collarbone (easy to reach when you're falling asleep):"I sleep with my mouth closed." I fell asleep tapping. At several times in the night, I got up and blew my nose, readjusted my position, readjusted the pillows or drank some water. I realised that I had only woken up because I was starting to breathe from my mouth. The EFT made it so uncomfortable for me to breathe from my mouth that by the morning, my breathing was as if I had my mouth taped. I did miss sleeping straight through though, as I would have done with the tape over my mouth (a Buteyko thing, please read previous posts). However, the EFT kept me safe, and that's great! I am still amazed by the different ways that EFT works. Breathing is something I used to take for granted, and it is so debilitating to lose this natural function.Do you know someone who needs help breathing? Maybe I can help. When…
London Smog, EFT, Buteyko,  IPL

London Smog, EFT, Buteyko, IPL

I am going for IPL Laser hair-removal treatment next Monday. Upset, now that I have figured out the relevance:"Even though being mis-diagnosed and given steroids that gave me unfeminine hair, I deeply accept myself. I forgive myself for taking steroids even as late as early last year, when I should have known better. I can never forgive the doctors and medical staff because what they did was totally wrong, but I can let go of this blame. Even though I'm sad that my body has been disfigured and distorted, my skin stretched, thick black hair where a woman has no such thing, my weight rocketed, I accept myself, I allow myself to heal." I started at the Sore Spot and carried on at the Top of The Head, then Collarbone. I know I'll feel even better after the IPL hair reduction treatment. Anyway, I've been unable to tape my mouth because the tape takes the hair out from around my mouth, and it has to be there to be zapped by the laser. My breathing has definitely been affected. Tonight, I will tap for sleeping with a closed mouth without the need for…
EFT and Buteyko for Hayfever and Lung  Disease

EFT and Buteyko for Hayfever and Lung Disease

Buteyko breathing re-training involves taping your mouth at night if you can't help breathing through it. It makes sense that if you are asthmatic, have hayfever, lung disease, etc and have trained to breathe through your nose all day that you carry on the good work at night. My partner had developed hayfever, and despite some desensitisation with EFT, still had a residual block in the sinuses. This led to snoring, which meant that I couldn't sleep properly. So we have recently both taken to taping our mouths at night. Taping your mouth is quite a frightening thing to do, as it comes against our natural instinct. So we each had to use EFT at the beginning in order to feel good about it.When the emotions are so much in the present, you don't need words. No Reminder phrase. All you need to do is to tap on all the EFT points you can remember/reach/comfortably tap on and keep tapping till you feel good. If you are trying to do this and feel a resistance to EFT, all you need to do is start with the Setup phrase: "Even though I feel like…

Buteyko and EFT helps this London EFT Practitioner

The Buteyko breathing re-training with EFT has resulted in that period of adjustment that I have been told of. I have also been busy with the new New Age London clinic in the City and have been stealing moments for the gym. So today, I was in the gym with plenty of time for exercise. I used EFT in the changing room just before going to the gym, just as I was wondering if I can go for a whole hour or maybe even two. I tapped on convenient EFT points that felt right, saying "two hours" until it felt right to be there for two hours. Then in the gym, I set the bike on 60 minutes and wondered whether I can do (less than) half my personal best this year - 6 minutes at 100 RPM. I did one minute at 100 RPM in my interval training, then after a while at 70, I did one more minute, then dropped speed again. Then it occured to me that I can do 4 minutes all in one go to get rid of the 6 minutes. It seemed impossible. So I EFTed all…
Wine, allergy, and this London EFT practitioner

Wine, allergy, and this London EFT practitioner

Allergic to wine? This London EFT practitioner isn't showing any symptoms. An allergy type of reaction occurs sometimes when I have wine, so I treated myself with EFT before drinking it. I held the wine in one hand and tapped with the other: Setup:"Even though wine messes up my breathing, I deeply love and accept mysef" Reminder:"Wine messes up my breathing" I drank some of the wine and I am still breathing just fine. I couldn't drink any more because it tasted too rancid at that stage. So EFT made it safe for my body to have some wine and made me dislike the wine after I had drunk a safe amount. I'm still breathing fine. Cool trick, isn't it?
