Tools - EFT and Reiki

 Have you tried  EFT ?  This energy meridian therapy, which involves tapping on a series of meridian points, is an excellent modality! It's very effective on its own, and a wonderful compliment to Reiki. In EFT, points on the upper body (head, chest and hands) are tapped in a specific pattern - often as you repeat an affirmative phrase.  Several years ago, I enrolled in online EFT courses with  Graham Nichols , and I enjoy occasional group sessions with a local practitioner.  In a conference call, Graham suggested we choose a couple of positive characteristics, and tap on them morning and evening for the next 14-28 days. This is a lovely 'next step' following our 14 day Reiki challenge! Some possibilities: Ease and Well-being Love and respect Love and forgiveness Joy and gratitude Confidence and excitement Comfort and balance in times of sorrow Some wonder if combining Reiki and EFT might result in "too much" energy ...  on the contrary , I feel they ...

As I've mentioned before ,  EFT Tapping compliments Reiki wonderfully. This morning I joined a practice session with gals in the UK and Mosambique, and tapped around frustration and self worth.

My middle granddaughter, now 14, has struggled with OCD and worries for a number of years. Though off gluten since 4 (which helps!) very committed to avoiding other foods she's sensitive to, and on medication, she still struggles.  Several years ago, my niece recommended EFT, or Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping), and last year, KK had a series of 6 sessions with a local practitioner. This was something she could do on her own, and faithfully tapped each evening before bed for several months. She also tapped before athletic events, to ease anxiety and boost performance. She's doing better, and has "one more tool" for stressful times. EFT is an energy meridian therapy, which involves tapping on a series of meridian points on the upper body (head, chest and hands) in a specific pattern, generally while repeating an affirmative phrase. Last fall I enrolled in an online EFT course with Graham Nichols , and I've attended several group sessions with KK's ...
