Now you know how I got interested in energy healing.

Does Energy Work fit into Christianity?

I wanted to see how it fit into my Christian Beliefs.  I found a book called  Remembering Wholeness, which helped me realize energy work was a tool that God has given to us to help us in our lives.  She specifically talks about EFT, so that was my introduction to EFT.    I got many books and watched videos and learned how to do things on my own and also found a chiropractor who helps with releasing energy issues too.

Summer 2007

T1 still had some anger issues a year later and it was our chiropractor who got to the heart of his problems.  He was angry I hadn’t protected him and he felt that I had abandoned him while he was in the NICU.  I remembered that he had recurring dreams where I left him places since he was a little boy.  So she helped him to release these emotions.

Since then his anger has dropped from 8 (on a scale of 1-10) to a 2.

Helping MY Issues

Interestingly enough when I did the EFT training with Sondra, we came up with another issue I have with my son.  (This is a great reason to do EFT with someone else facilitating, I don’t think I would have found this on my own)  So T1 is 12 now and she was having me say, “It is easy to parent T1.”  (or something close to this)  I couldn’t say it.  I really felt it had to be hard to parent him.  Maybe because the last 12 years had been hard?   She helped me release that a bit and I continued to tap on it over the weekend I was at Trust Birth.

Guess what!  It has been much easier to parent him since getting home.

It sounds too easy.

I think that some people would read this and think, “NO WAY.”  Can something this simple bring about such fast results.  But it has in my parenting and in my Birth Work.

There have been studies done using EFT to work with military getting over PTSD and it has worked with them quickly too.  If it works for something as intense as that, it can certainly work for these much simpler emotions.   I know people who have used it to loose weight.  It is a great tool. A great overview video is The Tapping Solution.

That was a long answer, but I hope it shows why I am so excited about EFT for birth work and for parenting and for life!
