Am I a Failure at EFT If There’s No Miracle? |

| EFT so often provides such astounding miracles that I can understand the new practitioner’s
intimidation and hesitation about pursuing EFT because of the many one minute wonders that do occur “for everyone
else”. |
| I have had several practitioners email me with similar questions in the past few months. I thought
I might send this reply to you for posting in the newsletter. As you will read, I think the miracles and wonders that
EFT brings are far deeper and more profound than we mere mortals might be able to “see” or comprehend. |

| Hey Jan — Just had a realization recently that part of the reason I have not pursued EFT
with more vigor — or perhaps as a career choice is a lack of confidence in myself. I realized that I am looking
for miracles every time I tap with someone and after 20 minutes if they’re not “cured” I tell myself
I am a failure at this stuff. After all in the EFT newsletters people cure people in a matter of moments. Anyway I wanted
some feedback from you on this — and obviously I need to do some tapping on it — also wondered what’s
happening with your mentoring program — |
| Great to hear you got in touch with some new — deep understandings. |
| Know that you are not alone in this perception that every EFT session should be a one minute wonder.
I hear that more often than you might imagine. EFT is so powerful and does elicit so many “miracles” that it
is easy for us — in our human ego perception — to begin to think that anything less than the blind seeing and
the lame walking just isn’t enough. |
| From my own perspective while I always look for and expect miracles … I take the position that
I cannot always “see” the miracle. In fact if I am intent on seeing a change that I can witness with my mortal
eyes … I am getting myself (my ego little self) in the way of allowing what may be a higher yet “invisible”
healing. |
| I truly believe that every session of EFT where the SUDS level drops is a healing and miraculous experience.
As my tag line says “One change of heart changes everything!” We cannot always see a change of heart. The person that
has the change of heart may not even “see” it. When there is a true change however, little things begin to shift. |
| Sometimes the change is as gentle as the person finding patience when in the past they would have been indignant.
Or they may actually remember to inquire within (of their God) and ask if there is another way to perceive what is happening to them
in a distressful moment. Healing is much more than seeing a physical symptom disappear or change. |
| I believe that it is an honor being an EFT practitioner. When we allow EFT to work and our intuition from our
higher Self (Our God connection) to lead the way, we too are healed. Some sessions it is blatantly a mirror healing where the practitioner
and the client “get” the same new insights. Other times the healings are like opposites. |
| Once I had a session where the client was working out a parental issue and the insights that came through healed
their grievance toward their parent and I felt peace and forgiveness toward one of my children. Another time the client was unforgiving
toward someone that had “done her wrong” and I got a very clear new understanding of how to direct a portion of my next
Teleclass. LOL |
| What I might suggest you do is to meditate upon IF you are meant to be a practitioner and once you are clear about
that you can ask “what is the next right step?” Often times as humans we want the entire path to show itself so we know who,
what, when and how. |
| By asking “what is the next right step?” you are essentially confirming to yourself that you can only
take one step at a time and one RIGHT step done well is very satisfying. If you try to rush ahead and take the next three steps you will
inevitably end up feeling frazzled and overwhelmed anyway. |
| Getting ourselves out of the way is a healing process. Learning to suspend the ego thoughts and patterns even for
an hour as you, the practitioner appreciates and supports your client without judgment builds “mind muscle”. |
| This mind muscle then translates into the mental strength to overcome ego temptations in your day to day life
allowing you to be more forgiving in your own relationships. Imagine if millions of people could learn to have true charity for one
another’s journey and not feel the need to judge it. That my dear is the miracle I am looking forward to! |
| Here are some suggested tapping phrases for you … |
|
| Thanks again for the question, I appreciate the opportunity to remind you that … you know what is right
for you! |
