Persistent EFT brings arthritis to its knees Hi Everyone, Here's a classic example of how persistently applying EFT mechanically to a serious physical issue like arthritis can give impressive benefits. More impressive, however, is the complete cessation of the problem after applying EFT to long standing emotional issues. Many thanks to Akeh Soder from Sweden for sharing this personal story regarding the arthritis in his knees. Please note that English is not his first language and thus his spelling and grammar could have used some editing. However, I left his article largely unedited because I thought his use of language added an important flavor. Also note that he abbreviates arthritis as A in his article. Please bring this case to the attention of your physicians. Hugs, Gary By Akeh Soder Please try this to cure arthritis (A). I have had A for three yrs in my knees. After I tested EFT for a problem with my lung - 30sec. wunder, I started to try to cure my A. To mention that my emotinally level was on its lowest after an economic crash. After one year of doing the basic recipe the pain in my knees had deminished to about 50%. I tapped on fear, grief, apathy, mismanagement, spoiled education, etc. And emotinally I have come up considerbly. When A was the worst I could only walk 200m and then I needed to go to sleep. After much EFT I could walk the whole day with no pain in the morning and with increasing pain after some hours. I worked with EFT for another half year but the pain pattern stayed the same. I have not tried anything else to cure it. Then I tried to focus on what bad things I had done to others. I picked an incident and tapped on the various objects in the scene of recall. I tapped on one object untill it faded away then I picked another one in the same scene and tapped on that and so on. After 3 sessions with variuos tapped objects from each scene resp. the pain was gone wholly and fully. To mention that after tapping on three or four objects in one incident I started to laugh and the incident was gone. I also shifted and held the attitude in the set-up that I am a spiritiual being with unlimited kapabilities so the creation of a scene is totally a creation of mine. (a little buddhism in there). Exampel of running an incident when I had cheated someone: even though I am a spiritual being I am creating the scene where I had cheated N and he doesn4t want to talk to me. Tapping on objects: a chair (where N is sitting on), a tree in the background, kiosk nearby, etc. Reminder: just keep the object untill it fades. Why harm someone when one have infinite kapabilties of creation. It seems that arthritis is coupled to the lower emotions. Come upscale and the arthritis fade away. Sincerely, Akeh Soder

An MD uses EFT for Rheumatoid Arthritis Hi Everyone, Below are examples from two MD's regarding the benefits of approaching physical ailments by taking aim at their emotional causes. First, Raul Vergini, MD from Italy describes the substantial progress of his Rheumatoid Arthritis patient by using EFT on her EMOTIONAL ISSUES ONLY (this includes a follow-up). Dr. Vergini says.... "At the end of the session we had a very big improvement (always without addressing the physical part of the illness). A pain in the jaw that she had everyday for months after the jaw operation (diagnosed as neuralgia) disappeared. She walked much better, and for the first time her legs moved "correctly" during walking without the usual robot-like motion. She was much less stiff than usual and she was able to quickly raise from the seat without using the hands as support." Seasoned EFT'ers have observed this striking phenomenon repeatedly. By now it should be plainly obvious to even the most casual observer that EFT should be considered as an important tool for almost any illness. If you need some convincing, just compare the EFT progress made by Dr. Vergini (his client provides a list) with any other method for such a severe disorder. So....thank you Dr. Vergini for your contribution to the healing of the world (he asks that we excuse his English because it is not his first language). After Dr. Vergini's contribution comes a humorous, but important message from Dan Benor, MD. It emphasizes the idea that many physical illnesses have emotional causes. ____________________ By Raul Vergini, MD [Learn EFT Here] Hi all, I am glad to report to you that I'm having great results with EFT in a very severe case of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a 42 year old woman. She began to suffer from RA about 5 years ago. The illness developed very quickly, and very soon she had to take everyday cortisone or anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) to be able to raise from bed and to eat something. She lost weight and often she has some fever. She has a very high rheumatoid factor in her lab exams. Her hands and feet are already deformed and painful, and the jaw was deformed too (she had a surgical correction for it). She walks with some difficulty (she is rather stiff) and moves her legs in a "robot-like" (or goose-like) fashion during walking. She has to keep her hands on the legs to help herself when rising from a sitting. This illness began in a period when she was very stressed by her father and then by the chief of a group where she took a course of 'pranic healing' (some kind of 'pranotherapy'). I investigated a bit

and discovered that her father always humiliated her since her childhood and always told her that she was no good at anything, and that outside of his "circle" (she worked with him) she never would have had any future. And she told me that actually she never succeeded in anything of what she tried to do by herself (very big writings on her walls!). When she decided to take that course of 'pranic healing' she went in big troubles with her father that wanted her to continue to work with him and not to lose time in such a stupid and useless thing. She took the course anyway. Then she discovered that the chief of this group (a woman) was very similar to her father (humiliating her, etc.) but in spite of this she remained in the group for 5 years. During these years the illness quickly worsened, and the doctors said that hers was a very severe case that usually progressively worsens. Summing up she has very serious issues with self-evaluation, lack of confidence in herself, abuses, etc. To make a long story short, the first time I saw her we tapped on the father issue, and without treating anything directly related to her illness (pain, stiffness, etc) she was much less stiff and she walked decisively better (she said about a 50% amelioration). She remained rather well for about three days, then after a phone call by her father and a small argument with him, she had some worsening of her condition. Moreover she didn't do correctly the "homework" I gave to her for that week. Yesterday she came for the second time, she was better than when I first saw her, but not as good as she was when she left my office after the first treatment. We worked for an hour and half on several problems and aspects (father, chief of the group, other failures she had, etc.) and she was even able to laugh at some of them after the tapping (when they made her cry some minutes before!). At the end of the session we had a very big improvement (always without touching the physical part of the illness). A pain in the jaw that she had everyday for months after the jaw operation (diagnosed as neuralgia) disappeared. She walked much better, and for the first time her legs moved "correctly" during walking without the usual robot-like motion. She was much less stiff than usual and she was able to quickly raise from the seat without using the hands as support. The friend that accompanied her to my office, when she saw her after the treatment, was shocked and said: "it's a miracle!". However I can say that when she walked out from my office she was really transformed. She was full with joy and she embraced and kissed me to thank. I too was surprised of the great improvement, and I had the confirmation of how much our emotions can influence our physical health, and of how powerful EFT can be, even in these very severe physical diseases. Of course she is not cured, and there is still a lot of work to do with her, but for the first time she knows that there can be hope for her condition, and this is the first step in her journey to a better emotional and physical health. Best, Raul Vergini, MD Italy P.S. sorry for my english

Followup by Dr. Raul Vergini Hi Gary, Yesterday I saw again the woman with RA. She was better, not much loss of benefit during this past week. She told me she was very fine on Thursday, so she decided to not take her usual anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and went out with a friend for a walk. Along the way she unexpectedly saw the funeral of a young boy that was killed in a car crash. This emotion made her immediately worse, so that she walked much worse when coming back home and she had to take her drug for pain. This demonstrates that her psychological/emotional equilibrium is still very, very delicate. However, she was rather good yesterday. Not much improvement on arms yet, but they are better than at the beginning of the EFT sessions. We worked for over an hour and a half yesterday on some mother's issues that came to her mind, and on the fact that she doesn't accept her deformed hands. When I asked her if she thinks to really deserve the healing, she said "I don't know". So there still is some strong low-confidence and guilt issues underlying her illness. When I asked her to sum up her improvements to date, from the beginning of our treatments, she said: - much less pain during night (now she can sleep well) - no fever - a small increase in body weight - no more need to bandage the wrists (she used these bandages to reduce pain) - a bit less swelling and maybe a little less deformation in fingers (these can be moved more freely now also in the "right" direction) - less swelling in feet (no more pain for a "growing bone" into the heel, it seems to have stopped its growth) - much improvement in stiffness and mobility in the pelvis (now she walks in a nearly normal way) - no more pains and neuralgia in the jaw (they appeared after the dentistry and surgical work to fix the deformed jaw) Summing up she estimates the overall improvement at least 50% better. Of course she still cannot avoid the two doses/day of her NSAI drugs, but I am confident that we can begin to reduce them soon. Best, Raul

A woman suffered for several years from arthritis of the hands, and had come for over a year for spiritual healing - in England - with modest symptomatic relief but no lasting cure. I was observing healers at work and happened to be there for one of her sessions. She sat with her fists clenched as she updated the healer on her progress since the pervious session. I interrupted to ask, "What do you think your hands might be saying?" She raised her hands, opening them and looking at her palms, and said, "I don't know what you mean!" I shrugged, and continued to observe. Within minutes, her fists were again clenched, and I repeated my question, with the same response. The third time her hands clenched and I asked the question, she asked (in a very angry tone of voice!) "Are you saying I'm angry?" All three of us burst out laughing, as her tone of voice was so obviously angry. This simple intervention opened the doors to her exploring and releasing many pent up angers, over a period of several months, during her healing sessions. A year later, she was free of arthritis, and felt that the releases of anger had been crucial to her improvements. Blessings, Daniel J. Benor, MD

22 years of pain from degenerative arthritis gone after persistent EFT Hi Everyone, Marlene Marion's client eliminates her severe pain after several sessions aimed at dealing with emotional issues. Notice how some of these emotions (and memories) were repressed and how Marion had her client make up an event from her past. This is an excellent method that I have used with impressive results. Hugs, Gary

By Marlene Marion EFT-ADV [Learn EFT Here] Dear Gary, I am so proud to be able to say that EFT was able to heal a woman with degenerative arthritis and very few childhood memories. Brenda has had severe pain for 22 years at an intensity level of a

constant 6 of a scale of 0-10. She had to shuffle her feet because of so much pain in her legs and hips and her back was so painful that she had a hard time sleeping. She was unable to move her head fully to the left or right because her range of movement was constricted with pain. She had pain in her neck that was getting worser, where the pain was at 8 out of 10. Brenda would also get constant migraines, averaging 3 a week. At each session I first worked on some of the immediate pain in order to make her sessions more comfortable. Then we worked on some issues of helplessness and loss after her husband, sister, mother and dad all died in a fairly short span of years. Brenda's brother tortured her when she was small and her mother was always doing mean things to her - sending her to her room and telling her how worthless she was. Although she had no emotion and couldn't remember exact events, she could remember some things that where quite awful. For example, she had been locked up in a rabbit cage and left there for hours and she'd been tied to a tree in the woods and left there for hours. But she was good at repressing and could not bring up any emotion about these things. So I tapped on the emotion I thought she must have been feeling, when she was trapped like that. Even though I was left in the woods all tied up and unable to move and frightened I deeply and completely accept myself and whatever other feelings I must have had at the time. Even though I was left caged up and unable to move … just like arthritis hard to move, I deeply and completely accept myself and whatever feelings I must have had at the time. Next, we worked more aggressively, saying the words louder and tapping harder. Followed by a marathon of tapping on all points saying, I am free of arthritis, I am a child of God and I deserve to move with ease. Even though I have this arthritis, I choose to believe the world is now safe for me to move freely in, and I completely choose to love and accept myself. I also found that by making up the emotion while tapping these emotions would sometimes come out. So I became hopeful. We also tapped a lot on anger, worthlessness, depression, hurt, sadness, feeling unloved, feeling unsafe to express herself. I also had her make up a movie for when she was very young, having her mother lock her up in a closet and telling her how worthless she is. This was toward the end and I think it's what made her arthritis finally leave. It took us a month; she came once a week and left with homework each time. Her homework was to tap on her pain and stress level throughout the day. And I had her tapping affirmations on herself daily, such as; I am getting healthier everyday … I move comfortably ... I am safe to move about freely ... I am deserving. Brenda now has no pain in her back, hips, legs, neck or hands. She can also move her head fully to the side with ease. She also walks with normal pain-free strides. So far this has lasted 2 weeks so we are hopeful she will remain this way. I am very grateful and humble to the fact that EFT was brought into the world. Love Marlene Marion EFT-ADV

Eighteen members of the Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous Group had recently gathered in the conference hall of Lala Lajpat Rai Bhavan in Sector 15, Chandigarh, to try a hand at a therapy called the emotional freedom technique (EFT), which claims to reduce one’s craving for drugs and alcohol. Treating them was Rohini Chopra, an unassuming woman from Delhi who has cured many a person of both physiological and physical illnesses by the EFT, a technique rarely employed in India. The therapist first helped each narcotic identify the level of his craving on the EFTscale of 10. All she did was tap them on the head, the face and the hands.

After every round of tapping, she would ask the patients: "Now try and identify your level of craving on the scale of 10." What followed was magical. Each narcotic could feel the intensity of craving declining fast. By the time the tapping rounds ended, most addicts registered their level of craving at 1.5. Many of them did not want to have a cigarette or a drug by the end of the session.

DISCOVERED by American psychotherapist Roger and first practised by Gary Craig, the EFT functions on the Chinese concept of energy meridians. It believes that an ailment — physical or emotional — is essentially caused due to some disruption in the body's energy system. Introduced in India by Rohini Chopra, who learnt the therapy during her three-week stay in the USAlast year, the EFTis being used by people to release their negative energy. Rohini, who has till date conducted about 15 workshops in Delhi and Chandigarh, says this American psychotherapeutic technique involves nothing except tapping on the "12 identified ends of energy meridians in our body." Rohini Chopra

Rohini, who practises the EFT to heal others, remarks that a year ago she healed with the help of reiki and acupressure. She came to know about this technique when she had gone to the USA to help her daughter settle there. "I had three weeks at my disposal. I just attended this workshop and realised how effective the technique was. And the best part of it is that after learning to heal yourself, you can start healing others. Each EFT workshop involves two sessions — in the first you learn to heal yourself; in the second you learn to heal others." After getting back from the USA, Rohini went to call on her friend, who had been shot at by assailants. Recalls Rohini, "The accident had left such a deep impact on my friend that she had virtually stopped venturing out alone. She was the first person I cured." Then Rohini treated another friend, Premila Bharat, who had a chronic stomach ailment. Premila, who had accompanied Rohini on her Chandigarh visit, maintained that the EFT had changed her life for good. Premila, who is now herself a healer, has cured her brother-in-law, who was unable to move his legs due to a brain tumour. Mentioning the steps involved in the technique, Rohini says: "The EFT works on the belief that all physical ailments have an emotional basis and vice-versa. I can prove this with an example. During the recent workshop in Chandigarh, a woman complained of a persisting pain in her feet. As I started tapping on her for ‘pain in the feet’, she began to tell me how much she hated her mother. I then began tapping for ‘hatred for mother.’ She continued to list bitter memories of her childhood years. I kept treating her and she herself did not realise when her pain had vanished." In Chandigarh, many have benefitted from the EFTworkshops. Ritu, a patient of multiple sclerosis, improved upon her walking and speech with the technique. Another resident, Poonam, was able to come out of her emotional crisis, and she is now using the technique to cure others. Stressing on the point that the EFTis a simple technique, Rohini avers: "Negative energy gets released by tapping on the end points of energy meridians. The EFTdoes not claim to alter your external circumstances, but it arms you to change your attitude by accepting yourself as you are. The aim is to tell you that it is natural to experience negative feelings like anger, jealousy and enmity. You need not suppress them. Once this truth is accepted, the EFThelps you gain complete control over your energy system. It does not make you placid. It helps you respond peacefully, whatever the external circumstances."

EFT healers at you doorstep Chandigarh now has a group of EFT healers, who have been trained under Rohini Chopra to heal others. This group holds regular EFT workshops where anyone can come for a cure. Anita Bansal, the local

coordinator for the EFT workshops, can be contacted on phone (775090) for counselling.
