I’ve recently been studying a lot of things… new, and not so new to me.. looking to up my healing and health practice. One  of my most recent studies has been on EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique. With all that I do and have done including Traditional Chinese Medicine, Polarity, Yoga, Qigong, Applied Kinesiology, essential oils, etc. over the last 23+ years, I found EFT to fit right in.

A couple of days ago, someone on Twitter made a blanket statement about adoptees. Being an adoptee, I took exception to her generalized statement which began a short conversation (about all one can have on Twitter). One thing which really hit me was that “…adoptees have a lot of internal pain”.

This got me to thinking… internal pain. Hmmm. Since we are virtually blank slates when born, where does this “internal pain” or angst, etc. come from? It comes from without. Society, with all it’s fears, throws it all on us and we, in turn, throw our fears on others, and the dance begins.

Normally, people think they have to deal with or relive all that was said/done to them in order to heal. My parents did this; my teacher did that.. blah, blah, blah… which is why I am like I am; which is why I do what I do or feel like I feel.

All this stuff that we take in from others causes a glitch or short circuit in OUR system so, why do we tend to focus on the outer… having to know who did what, when, why? We don’t! That’s the beauty of EFT and other modalities I use. We find out what the problem is, then deal with it. It has very little (and in many cases, nothing) to do with the outer. We don’t have to confront anyone; we don’t have to forgive anyone… we just have to remove the glitch(es) and be at peace. How cool is that????

So, why does EFT work so well on so many issues? Because it works with US! With OUR issues, not with anyone elses. It gets the “engine” running smoothly again and, in many cases, quite quickly.

Does this mean that, in order to be healthy mentally, emotionally, physically and financially all we need to do is EFT? Absolutely not! The basics still need to be done! Good food program, movement, rest, pure water, appreciations.

(BTW, if you’re interested in doing some work with me, currently, I’ve got two openings. Please, contact me and let’s see what we see.)

Injoy and eternal-harmony,

Revvell
