Gary Craig’s note:
Note how easily Jasmine Bharathan (from India)
helps this 9 year old skeptical girl get beyond
a water fear. In this case, EFT was applied
several times over a few days and each time
further progress was made.
Article:
A client's 9 year old daughter had a fear of
swimming in the pool. After 4 days of hanging
around near the pool and being teased for not
getting in, she reluctantly agreed to do EFT
with her mom (reluctantly because she thinks EFT
is very silly!). She insisted on doing only the
short cut tapping version. She did two rounds
of:
Even though I have this fear of water and am
afraid I will drown, I choose to completely,
deeply and lovingly support and accept myself
(This part is her own affirmation and she was
very particular about the order and also
insisted on singing it!).
Three days later, she came closer to the pool
with not enough courage to step in. She did two
more rounds of the same statements. Three days
later, she got into the shallow side of the pool
and seemed to enjoy herself. She did two more
rounds of the same statements. Then four days
later, she has been swimming from one end to the
other end (25 feet depth) and refused to step
out of the water! (This was similar to Dave' in
the
EFT Course DVD).
She says "I can't believe that in 10 days I have
been able to do this!" She still thinks EFT is
silly!
Observations:
-
There were no specific events that were
tapped on. It still worked.
-
The same statements were repeated without
exploring aspects. It still worked.
-
She was not a willing candidate. She was
tapped on, only for few minutes on 3
different occasions.
-
She thinks EFT is silly. It still worked.
-
She sang the affirmation part of the
statement. It is believed that singing
activates the creative side of the brain and
thus, is a great way to retrain the brain
with fresh new information.
Happy to share this with you..
Warmly,
Jasmine Bharathan
