			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re new to EFT and tapping or you&#8217;re an accomplished practitioner, this is one experience you won&#8217;t want to miss. It is the <em>premier annual event</em>. The Tapping World Summit 2011 kicks off on Monday, February 21st. It&#8217;s jam-packed with 20 free presentations over 10 days with some of the top experts from the EFT tapping world. It&#8217;s not a lecture. It&#8217;s an experiential event because you&#8217;ll learn how to do EFT and tapping from top experts in the field.</p>
<p>Best of all, you can attend the complete event from the comfort of your home or wherever you choose to be. This is an online event, there are no airline tickets or hotels to book., and you may surprised to know that the main event is 100% free. You get to listen to two presentations each day for 10 days, and you have a 24 hour period to listen to the calls so you don&#8217;t even have to be there at an exact time. Everything is streamed through the web so you don&#8217;t tie up your phone or have an phone bills to pay.</p>
<p><!--Begin---></p>
<p><a href="http://www.thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4155612"><img class="alignleft" style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://tws2011-images.s3.amazonaws.com/300x250_Lipton.png" border="0" alt="Tapping World Summit 2011 - Bruce Lipton Video" width="300" height="250" /></a><img src="http://www.thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Imp=4155612" border="0" alt="" width="0" height="0" />The only way Nick Ortner and his team are able to offer the Tapping World Summit for free is that they offer an upgrade option for those that want to own the audio to the presentations, the transcripts and the workbook for the Summit at a very reasonable price. That&#8217;s completely optional. I don&#8217;t know of any event or product where you can sample it all for free before deciding if you want to own it.</p>
<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>
<p>If you want to sign up for this year&#8217;s Summit event click on the link below. There&#8217;s also a really cool video on this page so make sure to check it out:</p>
<a href='http://www.thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4155553' class='small-button smallgreen'><span>Click Here to Register for Tappping World Summit 2011</span></a>
<p>When you sign up to listen for free, you&#8217;ll also get three audios that you can immediately listen to or download. The videos are with Dawson Church, EFT Expert Carol Look and Nick Ortner, the host of the event. Each of them talk about EFT and Tapping in different ways. If you decide you want to own the event, you&#8217;ll have a great EFT tapping reference library that includes, audios, transcripts and the workbooks for each presentation. And depending on which upgrade you choose, you&#8217;ll also get to have 5 or 10 different bonus audios.</p>
<p>As someone who presented at the first Tapping World Summit, I highly recommend that you register today. It&#8217;s a wonderful way to stay on the cutting-edge of healing modalities like EFT and tapping.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It starts on Monday, February 21st and runs for 10 consecutive days with two presentations every night. It&#8217;s the 2011 Tapping World Summit. The event is free and you can also order recordings afterwards. You&#8217;ll hear a rare collection of interviews from the experts that teach and live daily with the tapping tools, applied both in their own lives and those of their clients. The 2011 Tapping World Summit will also give you real-life insight into these experts&#8217; personal lives and how they utilize tapping in their daily practice. These experts will  reveal things that they&#8217;ve never shared in a live event before.</p>
<p>As Bob Proctor says in the film The<em> Tapping Solution</em>, &#8220;People are starting to understand themselves as an energy field. And the fact that they can work with it to get the results they want.&#8221; And these experts aren&#8217;t just saying they support EFT, they&#8217;re saying that they use it on a regular basis and have had positive results with it. To give you a snapshot, a soundbite, a feel for the summit, check out this video from Jack Canfield, co-creator of the <span style="font-style: italic;">Chicken Soup for the Soul</span> books and featured expert in the hit film <em>The Secret</em> where he talks specifically about EFT:</p>
<a href='http://www.thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4127747' class='small-button smallorange'><span>View Jack Canfield Video</span></a>
<p>In the video Jack reveals some really eye opening insights as to why he thinks EFT is so critical to use, how he has used EFT in his own life, and how he recommends you use it to get exactly what you want in life. This video is one of a series of videos being released leading up to the 2011 Tapping World Summit. This online event happens once a year and is not only the biggest event in the EFT community, but also one of the most popular events that happens in the entire personal development world.</p>
<p>Over 100,000 people attended this event online in 2010 and over 81,000 people attended in 2009.  And this year&#8230; they’re expecting over 200,000 people! The Summit is 100% content and the best part is that it&#8217;s free.</p>
<p>Again, check out Jack Canfield&#8217;s video.</p>
<a href='http://www.thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4127747' class='small-button smallorange'><span>View Jack Canfield Video</span></a>
<p>I think Jack pretty much sums up how powerful EFT is and what he thinks about it with this great line in the video:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The only advise I would have for somebody thinking about EFT would be do  it.  There&#8217;s nothing to lose. It&#8217;s so fast.  It&#8217;s such a powerfully  quick process.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gary Craig, the founder of EFT, retired earlier this year. Many of us had the opportunity to see Gary in action at his seminars and workshops. For those of you who didn&#8217;t, you can learn directly from Gary from the contents of a CD he released in 2002. It&#8217;s titled, <em>EFT for Newcomers</em>.</p>
<p>Technology has come a long way. I&#8217;ve got an original copy of the CD. In Part 1, Gary gives technical instructions on how to watch the video on your computer. With YouTube which didn&#8217;t appear until 2005, that&#8217;s no longer necessary. Part 2 of the CD is an introduction giving examples of how people are using EFT plus there&#8217;s a disclaimer. (Please read our <a href="http://www.eftzone.com/disclaimer/">disclaimer</a> before watching the videos.) The other three parts of Gary&#8217;s CD give you instructions as Gary walks you through the steps on doing EFT.</p>
<p>Before watching the videos, I suggest picking a specific issue that you&#8217;d like to use to get relief with EFT. As you&#8217;ll see in the videos, Gary&#8217;s direct, down-to-earth and caring way of being comes across. He has an easy, informal manner. Enjoy learning EFT and watching Gary Craig in these three segments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although I don&#8217;t recall how it happened, last week I found out about <a href="http://www.quantumentrainment.com/">Quantum Entrainment</a> and Dr. Frank Kinslow&#8217;s book, <span style="font-style: italic;"><a href="http://quantumentrainment.com/books.html">The Secret of Instant Healing</a>.</span> At only 121 pages, I read the book in one evening. I just started playing with QE and have already had positive results. This &#8220;healing modality&#8221; reminds me of Dr. Richard Bartletts&#8217;s <a href="http://www.matrixenergetics.com/default.aspx">Matrix Energetics</a> &#8220;<a href="http://www.matrixenergetics.com/Videos.aspx">Two Point</a>&#8221; process. Both of these ways are very different from EFT because there&#8217;s no tapping at all. And they require quite a different mindset because <span style="font-style: italic;">you do nothing at all</span>.</p>
<p>Where people new to EFT can learn from this is to &#8220;not do.&#8221; Let loose. Don&#8217;t get caught up in the mechanics. Instead of trying to make something happen, just direct a flow. Set a positive intention and let go. Allow whatever is supposed to happen unfold by itself. No thought, just pure awareness.</p>
<p>Although I primarily focus on EFT, I highly recommend reading <em>The Secret of Instant Healing</em> and Frank Kinslow&#8217;s other books. Here&#8217;s a short video on how to do Quantum Entrainment.</p>
<p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPxGryspmlY">www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPxGryspmlY</a></p>
</p>
<p>It&#8217;s fascinating to me that powerful and effective healing ways like Quantum Entrainment are so simple. We live in cultures where we relish action and doing. QE is about being instead of doing, noticing and being aware instead of acting. Find out more about Quantum Entrainment and how it might benefit you.</p>

In classic EFT, the ending of the phrase is … I deeply and completely accept myself. Sometimes people will say, “But I don’t accept myself.” In these cases, be flexible in finding a phase that resonates and works for you. Andrew Wilkie has some excellent recommendations in this article.</p>

<h3>10 Ways To End Your EFT Tapping Set-Up Phrase</h3>
<p>By Andrew Wilkie</p>
<p>Want to jumpstart your EFT set-up phrase? The standard ending is.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I deeply and completely accept myself.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>I deeply and profoundly accept myself.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>There is a slight 3rd variation which is: I love and accept myself even though I have this_______________.&quot; I tend not to use it.&#160; As it starts off the set-up phrase.</p>
<p><strong>My standard EFT Setup phrase is:</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Even though I have this _____________ . I deeply and completely, love, forgive and accept myself.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong>Why Would You Want Other Endings?</strong> </p>
<p>Often somebody using eft, can&#8217;t say out loud or to themselves, “I deeply and completely accept myself.” This in itself needs some EFT tapping. Yet, that&#8217;s for another post. My favourite 10 set-up endings, which I most regularly use are:</p>
<ol>
<li>I choose to forgive myself for holding onto this and I choose to forgive those others that may have contributed to this in any way, shape or form. </li>
<li>I choose to be more open about this in the very near future. </li>
<li>I accept all of me anyway. </li>
<li>I am still a good person. </li>
<li>I deeply and completely accept myself somehow. </li>
<li>Even though I don&#8217;t accept myself there are parts of me that I accept. </li>
<li>I am open to believing that making healthy changes can be surprisingly easy. </li>
<li>I&#8217;m open to letting go of this now. </li>
<li>I choose to be open to the possibility of being free of this X. </li>
<li>I totally love, accept, and forgive myself. </li>
</ol>
<p>From here you have so many ways and options to end your EFT setup phrase. How are you going to end your set-up phrase?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I recall, I found out about Joan Feldman’s book, <em><a href="http://www.energy-psychology-therapy-mindbody-healing.com/froginmybasement.html">A Frog in My Basement: A Therapist’s Curious Journey into Energy Psychology and the Law of Attraction</a></em> from a <a href="http://www.google.com/alerts">Google Alert</a> I have on EFT. For some reason I was drawn and compelled to buy a copy of the book. I just finished reading it and what a hoot it was. Joan’s book is an entertaining, educational and enlightening story wrapped and packaged in 288 pages. As an added plus, the appendices give you tools for doing EFT and TAT.</p>
<p>Her writing style is funny, witty, and insightful. I smiled as I read along because I can relate to many things she said. She explains the challenges she had going from being a traditional therapist to entering the land of “<a href="http://www.doubletongued.org/index.php/dictionary/woo_woo/">Woo Woo</a>” and having strange things happen to her while getting amazing results. Imagine a therapy session where your therapist shook, rocked, growled and yawned, not from disinterest, but as part of the energetic healing process. All of this showed up for Joan as she trusted her intuition. She was being called to make a choice between her old beliefs and the new, albeit illogical ones, being presented to her.</p>
<p>One part that especially clicks for every EFT practitioner is chapter nine, “Ungrateful Wretches.” Joan talks about clients getting small miracles from methods like EFT, whereupon the clients gloss over or dismiss giving credit to EFT. This is called the “<a href="http://eftuniverse.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=3691:a-quality-look-at-qthe-apex-effectq-&amp;catid=33:articles-a-ideas&amp;Itemid=3147">Apex Effect</a>.”</p>
<p>Joan Feldman willingly takes risks in being very open and genuine about her experiences and adventures into energy psychology and the law of attraction. Her passion radiates from the pages. She sprinkles in a handful of case stories that are compelling and captivating. The book is full of zippy energy, humor and Joan’s unbridled optimism. As Joan says near the end of her book, “My goal is to offer you a new way of thinking to help you be happier and more hopeful and to give you tools for creating a better life.”</p>
<p>Joan Feldman’s book, <a href="http://www.energy-psychology-therapy-mindbody-healing.com/froginmybasement.html"><em>A Frog in My Basement: A Therapist’s Curious Journey into Energy Psychology and the Law of Attraction</em></a><em>,</em> is a charming, heartwarming read. Get the book. I believe you’ll be grateful you did.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you try to make something happen or force it to happen, you create a block, a resistance. Also, any outcomes are limited to your own expectations. Instead, tap into consciousness. When you are not attached to any outcome, you are open to an infinite number of possibilities. With EFT, just “play” with what shows up in the process. Go with it even if it may not make sense or even seem silly. Intuition isn&#8217;t logical. Who know what wonders might occur? If I may give you perhaps the most valuable tip when doing EFT, it&#8217;s this.</p>
<p>Often when people say EFT is not working, they tighten up and get fixated. The solution? Let go. In doing EFT, don’t worry about the mechanics of tapping, whether you’re doing it right, or might make a mistake. Rather, simply be in the moment. What do you feel, see, hear, or notice?</p>
<p>It’s about more being than doing. Calm your mind. Take the risk of being open. Go with what you’re aware of right now. Tune into your intuition. Trust any hunches or promptings you get. Be flexible. Change directions. Go with the flow. “Dance” with what shows up. Be gently inquisitive, childlike.</p>
<p>Put your ego aside. Remember, things happen through you, not by you.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>I was with a client today who wanted to tap on her phobia which is a fear of heights. I asked her to give me an example of something that if she thought about right now might get up to an 8 or 10 SUDS level. She picked one that had her at 10. It was being on the second level of a shopping mall and looking down. So we started tapping on, “Even though I have this fear of heights …” Turns out that wasn’t what was making her fearful at all. Let me tell you how we got to the real core issue.</p>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was with a client today who wanted to tap on her phobia which is a fear of heights. I asked her to give me an example of something that if she thought about right now might get up to an 8 or 10 SUDS level. She picked one that had her at 10. It was being on the second level of a shopping mall and looking down. So we started tapping on, “Even though I have this fear of heights …” Turns out that wasn’t what was making her fearful at all. Let me tell you how we got to the real core issue.</p>
<p>Although there was some change, my experience with EFT is that when you get minor shifts you’ll want to dig deeper or come from a different angle. So I asked her what might happen if she got close to the railing at the second level or put her hands on it. She said she would get very nervous. So I asked, “<em>And then what?</em>” She said she might feel an impulse to jump. That feeling changed to being more of a fear of being pushed.</p>
<p>So I asked her again, “<em>And then what?</em>” Almost immediately her face became flush and she said, “I’d die.” The tears flowed. So we tapped on the real core issue:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Even though I have this fear of death, I deeply and completely accept myself.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I also used the Choices method and did a few rounds of EFT tapping. In a few minutes she was down to zero and feeling calm. (Characteristically, she did some yawning.) We did testing to see if she could get herself back up to a high number and it held at a zero. Asking, “<em>And then what</em>” or “<em>And then what might happen</em>,” can often get you to the core issue quickly and gently.</p>
