Welcome!

Hi everyone

I hope the New Year has started off well for you all and

brings with it inspiration, prosperity and joy.

During 2013 we intend to introduce new ideas for our

magazine but we’d be interested to hear of your ideas

too. We are making “Interview with a Celebrity” a

regular feature now, where we will be inviting celebrityguests to be interviewed by a member of our Communications Team.

This edition starts off with celebrity guest, Dr Bradley Nelson (author

of the Emotion Code).

This is such a beautiful and professional magazine produced by Kay that I’d like to encourage

 you to share it with your friends, colleagues, students. All members are sent a copy of the maga-

 zine but unless visitors sign up from our website to receive one, they will only be able to access

archived copies.

We need your articles and you don’t have to be a professional to write for us either. You can senda one off story/ article or apply to be a regular contributor. It is free publicity and advertising after

all! Our contact details can be found alongside.

Well I will sign off and look forward to sharing more news in our next edition.

Before I go, I couldn’t leave without reminding you that the unbeatable Early Bird offer at the

Conference expires on 28th February. You may want to note your diary for not only this year but

for 2014 where we will be scheduling our Conference at the end of October again but not sure

where yet.

AAMET likes to hear from mental health and medi-

cal practitioners about their use of EFT, as well as

research being conducted. Please get in touch if

you are involved in any reasearch or studies which

involve EFT.

 Mahima Kalla, a PhD student from Melbourne,

 Australia, shares details of the research she is un-dertaking at the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and

 Health Sciences at Monash University, Australia.

“I have been awarded an Australian Postgraduate Award to undertake

a PhD in the topic “The use and perceived benefit of Emotional Free-

dom Techniques (EFT) for building the health and wellbeing of rural

 people in Australia and India that have a physical illness.” 

I would mainly like to study what sort of changes occur within a

 person’s energetic and astral field upon administering EFT, that results

in an improvement in a disease/medical condition.

Upon drawing conclusions on the perceived benefits of EFT, I will

explore how it can be safely administered in a rural context, especially

where conventional medical infrastructure is limited.

 Some of the ways I have in mind to study the co-relations between

energy field and illness include: Clinical trials, Tests such as blood tests,

& Kirlian photography 

I look forward to presenting my research findings to you in future.”

K.I.S.S.Some say this acronym means “Keep it

Simple, Sweetie” and some prefer “Keep

it Simple, Stupid.” Either way, sometimes

keeping it simple with tapping is wise.If you have searched the web for infor-

mation about EFT or other tapping tech-

niques, you will uncover a wide variety

of styles. Some people tap on the wrists,

some don’t. Some use both hands, some

use one. Some use positive statements

from the get-go while others wait until

some of the negative is released. Some

use lots of words while others repeat

the same words over and over again.

Even EFT experts have their own unique

styles.

You want to do it right, right? Well, which

way IS right?

Remember that EFT is a VERY forgiving

technique. No matter which way you

tap, it often works, even if someone else

thinks you’re doing it “wrong!”

As a practitioner, I know that there are many skills and refine-

ments that make tapping more effective, especially when

confronting complex issues. But too often we forget that just

simple tapping is better than not tapping.

For those times when you can’t do it “right,” if you can’t think of

the words, you don’t know what you’re feeling, or you’re with

others, just do one of these simple versions of tapping:

Tap on the karate chop point (the fleshy side of either hand) with-

out words. Aim for about 20 times or for 10 seconds.

Tap on the karate chop point as you think to yourself, “I accept

myself even with my problems.” Tap as you think this at least

three times.

Tap on any point that just feels good without words.Imagine yourself tapping on yourself. If you can, focus on a prob-

lem/negative feeling at the same time. Or just imagine tapping

without words.

Doing these simple forms of tapping will help you feel better.

Period.

How simple can you get!

there is nothing better

than keeping it Simple...

Drug using clients come with a

host of issues. Statistically speak-

ing, 58% of our presenting clients

have experienced some form of

childhood abuse, the most com-

mon being sexual.

 They have all the issues related

to this one area of emotional

trauma. Leading a life full of det-

rimental behavior patterns then

compounds this.

 Therefore there are issues suchas Low Self- Esteem / Worth and

even Self Loathing.

Generally they have lead lives

outside what we may call ‘social

norms’.

EFT Level 3 Practitioner/

 Trainer, Robert McKenzie

who works within the

NHS GP Shared Care

Scheme and specialises

in cases of Substance

Use, gives us an insight

into some of his experi-

ences using EFT...

Insight: Drug Addictions

Hi, I’m Robert McKenzie

I‘ve kindly been given the

opportunity to let you know

about some of my experiences

using EFT.

 As a Professional SubstanceUse Practitioner, I work with

 primary heroin, crack cocaine

and Benzodiazepam users in

the NottingHill area of Lon-

don.

I have worked in this field for

ten years now and I love my

work. I work within what is

known as the NHS GP SharedCare Scheme as a GP Liai-

son, which enables me to

work alongside NHS GPs and

Clinical Nurse Specialists who

 prescribe substitute opioid

medications such as Metha-

done and Buprenorphine.

Among the assorted treatment

and care modalities on offer to

clients presenting to drug serv-

ices for help with their addictions

they can access psychological

interventions and support such

as Counseling/Psychotherapy.

 These talking therapies can

hopefully help the clients work

through their troubled emotions

and possibly help them find the

root causes to their dependen-

cies.

Unfortunately, clients usually

access these support mecha-

nisms only on a weekly basis for

one hour at a time. I have always

thought this wasn’t ideal.

I currently carry a caseload of seventy clients

 The majority haven’t been in employment for con-

siderable lengths of time and they have gravitatedtowards likewise souls and cut themselves off from

society leading isolated lives and in turn have a lack

of confidence and social skills.

 There is a feeling of being judged, ostracized and

shunned by society. I have discovered the most

challenging obstacle to this client group accepting

change in their lives is Fear!

One of the most common aspects of this is fear of

themselves and who they will be if they change andwhat will be expected of them if they do. For this

reason alone, resistance to change is high in this cli-

ent group.

Although I have seen dramatic positive changes in a

number of my clients, the success rate on the whole

throughout this field for long term abstinence is low,

(approximately 20%) and the work can span years

before someone is successful in regaining a healthy

drug free life. They may have to try number of times

before finally breaking free of their bonds.

Statistically, 58%

of our presenting

clients have ex-

perienced some

form of childhood

abuse, the mostcommon being

sexual 

I have heard statements such as “Who wants to know a junkie like

 me?” and “I’m 40 years old, it’s too late for me to change”

AAMET LIFE  JANUARY 2013 www.aamet.org

Approximately five years ago I decided to try to find

a tool which would offer my clients a way of taking

back some level of control of their chaotic behav-

iour.

I felt it important they didn’t need to wait another

week for a one hour session to help them deal with

whatever may be upsetting to them. This could be

memories, daily anxieties or more prevalently crav-

ings to use more drugs thereby continuing the cycle

of drug abuse.

I scoured the Internet trying to find something,

although I wasn’t even sure myself what I was look-

ing for and I literally stumbled onto EFT when I came

across a Gary Craig video.

I decided I’d like to give it a go and made contact

with Philip and Christine of Pheonix EFT, got myself

trained, and haven’t looked back since.

Having passed my training I then decided to ap-

proach my employers to request permission to intro-

duce EFT sessions with my own clients. I work for a

London based charity, BlenheimCDP and I’m pleased

to say that my senior management are forward look-

ing and pride themselves on being innovative.

 They agreed

to me running

a pilot study with a small group of six clients for six

months. I used the NHS HADS scale in evaluating

the study. Out of that group three are now drug free

and are now EFT Practitioners. One moved away

and the other two were drug free for some months

but are now back using drugs again. As sad as that

may be the study equates to a 50% success rate.

At this time I also facilitated a weekly EFT group in a

rehabilitation unit where residents were connecting

with their emotions for the first time in years.

 The level of emotion being expressed at this stage

of recovery can be overwhelming. Anger was rife

for a majority at this stage of recovery so I wouldteach them to use Tapping to alleviate their anger

whenever they felt it surfacing.

Disrupted sleep patterns was also a very common is-

sue. I would teach them to Tap on themselves while

in bed and some slept soundly for the first time in

weeks.

I expect some of you reading this will know what

I’m talking about when I say I experienced a level of

ridicule and resistance. Common comments were

“You’re having laugh, what can Tapping on your

yourself do”?

I experienced this weekly while being given the cold

shoulder by the in house psychotherapists. I now

bump into ex-residents who tell me that are still

using EFT anytime they feel the need and that they

wouldn’t have found staying drug free as easy with-

out the technique. I now also have the respect of the

psychotherapists.

I’m delighted to have had the opportunity to use

EFT on other talking therapy professionals who were

so taken by the results they have sought out train-

ing to compliment their practice.

Staff members at my workplace have referred their

clients to me after experiencing the technique for

their own issues and some have now become prac-

titioners. Volunteers also at my workplace have also

been trained to practitioner level.

Over the years I have continued to employ EFT with

a number of my clients, with a considerable success

rate. I have gone on to use the technique with GP

Practice staff, family and friends. In fact I use the

technique at any given opportunity and can hon-

estly say I do not know anyone who hasn’t benefit-

ted from it.

I have been shocked and still am taken by surprise at

 just how effective EFT can be and have added to my

skills by being trained in Matrix Reimprinting which

refer to as EFT on Steroids.

 At this time my employers have agreed to stage another larger study with a

dozen staff members from assorted projects within the organization about

to be trained. If the feedback is positive, which I fully expect it to be, the sen-

 ior management will be looking at “Rolling it out”, into the organisations 17

 projects here in London.

I am delighted to have the pleasure of work-

ing with one forward looking and open minded

GP who refers clients to me specifically for EFT

sessions after she experienced it’s effects and

listened to her patients

Where do I see EFT going?Although I can see a day when

it will be part of the NHS just

as acupuncture has become I

believe progress will be slow in

introducing it to mainstream

primary care. The NHS is all about evidence

based treatment modalities

and until we can provide the

evidence we will be knocking

on the door. The evidence is

there anecdotally by the barrow

load but it just isn’t enough. I

know that some within the EFT

community are trying whatever

they can to produce the neces-sary evidence and I wish them

God speed in their efforts.

Ideally we need the resources to carry out a clinical

study of EFT but as we all know this takes an inordinate

amount of money and funding is an issue right across

the board in these times we live in. Until we find the

means to make this happen we as a community can

only keep spreading the word and doing what is re-

quired to make EFT as widely known as possible. We

need to make a concerted effort to use it on anyone,

anytime, anywhere. I’ve even used it in bars and restau-rants.

Five years ago I was being ridiculed. Since then

however EFT has been in the media and when you

mention “Tapping” people now they say “Oh Yeah,

I’ve heard of that”. Maybe, hopefully, it won’t be

too long before everyone knows what those three

alphabetical letters EFT refer to.

My best wishes to all in the EFT community. I

wish you the very best. Your efforts will come to

fruition one day and I will continue to be doingwhatever I can to carry this wonderful technique

forward.

T  he latest research show that up to 50% of gen-

eral practitioners and pediatricians in Switzerland

 have experienced Burnout over recent years. It also appears that the numbers are just as critical

 for MDs in many other countries in Europe.

A two-day Medical Conference named

‘Quality of Life 2012’ was organized on

the last weekend of September in charm-ing Verbier, one of the most reputed ski

resorts located in the heart of Valais, in

Switzerland.

The aim of this QoL2012 Conference was

to offer MDs an opportunity to experi-

ence different alternative methods to re-

duce stress, while one full day was dedi-

cated exclusively to Burnout. The chosen

methods were Emotional Freedom Tech-niques (EFT), Mindfulness, HeartMath

and Mobility & Sports.

I was honored to be invited as an EFT ex-

pert to participate at the Round table on

the theme “Burnout, from Screening to

Therapies”, and to give a two hours intro-

ductory EFT workshop.

The roundtable put forward the need fora new vision of our health system, as MDs

reported that much of their excess stress

comes from an overload of paperwork

which has drastically increased over re-

cent years due to a new system (TarMed)

in our country.

The workshop was well received, par-

ticipants reported having enjoyed very

much the experimental atmosphere. Andwith the help of a little humor, they also

thought EFT was loads of fun!! They were

very interested in the different physi-

cal changes they (or their colleagues)

perceived while tapping – shivers, heat

waves, pain moving around from one

place to another in the body… Of course,

MD are wonderfully specific when it

comes to describing physical symptoms!!By the end of the workshop, two of them

fell asleep sitting on their chairs, and one

suddenly got the giggles… Eventually

provoking general laughter amongst the

participants …

Talking about relaxation!

I would like to thank my super team for

that special day : Alain my husband, forhelping me develop a specific program

on EFT & Burnout, and Janine Portner,

AAMET Certified EFT practitioner, for her

kind assistance throughout the day.

Bookings have already been taken for

 2013, we’re all looking forward for more

EFT in Verbier!

Dr. Bradley Nelson is the developer of what some are calling, ‘the most advancedform of energy medicine on the planet’. A holistic Chiropractic Physician and Medical

Intuitive, Dr. Nelson is one of the world’s foremost experts in the emerging fields of

Bioenergetic Medicine and Energy Psychology.

His bestselling book, “The Emotion Code”, is helping people all over the world to improve their lives by

ridding themselves of their imbalancing emotional baggage. Users of The Emotion Code technique

have found freedom from emotional problems such as depression and anxiety, as well as physical

 problems including fatigue, pain and disease. A key element of The Emotion Code is removing emo-

tional baggage that has clustered around the heart, interfering with ones ability to find love and

success. Dr. Nelson has coined this cluster of emotions, the “Heart-Wall,” and it has been called “the

most important discovery in the history of energy medicine.” For the past 24 years, Dr. Nelson has lec-

tured internationally on the healing of chronic and incurable diseases through energy work and re-

storing balance to the 6 key elements of health in the body. In 2009 he channeled his life’s work into a

simple yet powerful self-study course known as, “The Body Code” system, which is being used success-

fully by doctors and laypeople alike to improve the health of thousands of people all over the world.

AAMET  Did you always know you wanted to be a

 healer? 

Dr Nelson When I was 13 years old, I was diagnosed

with kidney disease. At the hospital, the Doctors

told us that there was no treatment for what I had.

 They told me to be careful not to run or play too

hard, because it could be dangerous. I remember

thinking that they didn’t really need to tell me that,

because just walking would sometimes create pain

in my back that would make me feel like I had been

stabbed with a knife. Since this disease was poten-

tially fatal, and since there was no medical treatment

for it, my parents decided to try an alternative.

 They took me to see a couple of Osteopathic Doc-

tors who practiced and lived in a trailer house situ-

ated in the middle of a field on the outskirts of town.

 Their names were Dr. Alan Bain and Dr. Ida Harmon.

“Doc and Ida” started manipulating and realigning

my spine, and within a couple of weeks, I felt much

better. The pain that I had been experiencing was

much less frequent, and much less severe. After

about a month, I had just about forgotten that I was

ever sick. My parents took me back to the clinic,where they ran the tests on me again. The tests were

all negative, and as I recall, that was the 1st time

I ever heard the phrase “spontaneous remission.”

“Whatever we did must’ve worked!” But of course,

they hadn’t done anything. I knew what had really

helped me, and it wasn’t Western Medicine.

AAMET  What made you choose to become a holistic

doctor as opposed to a medical doctor? 

Dr Nelson I knew in my heart that what my “alter-

native Doctors” had done HAD worked. I decided

then and there that I wanted to be a Doctor when I

grew up, but not just any kind of Dr., I wanted to be

 THAT kind of doctor. If I had to practice in a trailer

house in the middle of a muddy field, that was okay

with me. Doc and Ida treated people by the busload

who would come to them from all over, even from

other states. They were miracle workers, and my life

would never be the same after my experience with

THE INTERVIEW 

them. I remember very distinctly lying on my back

on their table during a treatment session and telling

Dr. Harmon, “When I grow up, I want to do what youdo.” She replied, “No you don’t. If you go to school

you’ll never learn the right way to heal. They’ll fill

your head so full of dogma and nonsense that you’ll

never be able to think for yourself again.” Maybe it

was my age, but for some reason this advice really

stayed with me. In fact that one simple piece of ad-

vice changed the course of my life forever.

As the years went on my dream of being a healer

started to fade a bit. I was introduced to computer

programming in college and I loved it. I loved busi-ness, and decided that I wouldn’t go into the healing

arts after all. Instead, I was going to become a busi-

nessman. When I was about 6 months away from

starting the MBA program at Brigham Young Uni-

versity, my wife Jean and I went home to Montana

for Christmas. As we were sitting with my mother

and father in their living room, my father suddenly

asked me, “Are you sure you don’t want to go to chi-

ropractic school? You’ve always wanted to do that,

and it seems like a really great career.” I replied that,

“No, I’ve decided to get my MBA, so I’m really go-ing in a different direction.” He said “Well, why don’t

you think about it one more time?” I told him that I

would.

Later that evening, Jean and I drew up a pro and

con list. On one side was chiropractic, and on the

other side was the MBA and the business world. The

list was a little longer on the chiropractic side, but

I wasn’t convinced. However, I was now not so sure

what I really wanted to do. I had thought that my

mind was made up, but now I felt like I was beingtorn between 2 exciting futures.

When Jean and I got married, we made an agree-

ment that we would never make any momentous or

important decision without praying about it to see if

it was right. This was definitely one of those momen-

tous decisions.

So, that night found me on my knees. I essentially

said, “Father in Heaven, if it makes any difference to

you, please help me to know what direction to go.

that problem, my attitude was always, “Well, maybe,

maybe not. Maybe there’s a better way to do this

that just hasn’t been figured out yet.” By this time,

I had become pretty good at computer program-

ming. In fact, I was able to help put myself through

chiropractic school by programming the admissions

software that our college used.

I remember my instructors saying, “the brain is the

most sophisticated computer in the known uni-

verse.” And I can remember thinking, “Wow. If the

brain is really a computer, will we ever have the abil-

ity to access the data that must be stored in there,

because if we could, it would be amazing.” I hoped

that someday, as technology advanced, we might

eventually gain this ability. Little did I know how ac-

cessing the subconscious database would affect my

practice and the rest of my life!

Since God had gotten me into this line of work, I

thought perhaps He might be willing to help me

in practice. I soon fell into a habit of asking a silent

prayer before I worked on each patient. It just took a

few seconds, and no one ever knew I had this habit,

but as time went on, I received more and more

information from above, information that I needed

to help my patients get well. One of the most pro-

found things that I learned was the enormous role

that emotions play in our illnesses. I found that this

emotional baggage, our “trapped emotions,” areresponsible for up to 90% of our pain, our physical

illnesses and emotional difficulties. As time went

on, I refined the method that I was using to find and

release these trapped emotions, and when I had it to

a point that it was simple enough that anyone could

learn it, I began teaching seminars in an attempt to

get the word out about this powerful new method

of healing.

AAMET What is the main message you convey throughthe book? 

Dr Nelson  There are a number of very powerful

messages in the book that all combine together to

create a quite remarkable new method. First of all,

I believe that the birthright of every single human

being is to be a healer. The Emotion Code gives back

that birthright to every man, woman and child on

earth. Healing need not be difficult. The Emotion

Code makes it simple enough that a child can do

it, and indeed, we have children working miracles

with it. I believe it is absolutely time to take back

our power and our ability to heal. While there will

always be a need for a medical profession, a need

for surgery, a need for drugs, the reality is that most

problems can be dealt with by simply releasing the

emotional baggage that underlies our symptoms.Another incredibly powerful message of The Emo-

tion Code has to do with the human heart. Ancient

peoples believed that the human heart was the

seat of the soul, the source of our love, the source

of our creativity and the core of our being. In the

West, we have thought these old ideas were simply

poetic notions, the uneducated attempts of ancient

peoples to understand the inner workings of the

human mind without the advantages of the modern

technology that we enjoy. Now, modern technology

is actually revealing to us that these ancient peopleswere right in their beliefs about the human heart. It

is exactly what they thought it was.

When someone is really hurting us, when we are

feeling deeply hurt or grieved, we can feel heaviness

and other physical sensations that make us think our

heart is “breaking.” When we are feeling this way, the

heart within us, the core of our being, is truly under

assault. If this happens to a person more than once

or twice, the subconscious mind will put up a “wall”

of energy, a “force-field” made from the energy oftheir trapped emotions. This Heart-Wall interferes

with our ability to give and receive love, to feel posi-

tive emotions, and to manifest the pure creation that

lies within the heart of each one of us. Taking down

this invisible wall allows us to manifest the perfect

creation within us, to find love, and to create our

best and most abundant life. This is the most im-

portant message of The Emotion Code; that 93% of

people are emotionally handicapped because of the

walls around their hearts. The Emotion Code unlocks

this secret, and gives us an incredibly rapid way to

find and eliminate these damaging walls.

When Heart-Walls are removed, depression disap-

pears immediately in most cases, people suddenly

find themselves in love who for many years had

been alone, and more. The discovery of the Heart-

Wall has been called “The greatest discovery in the

history of energy medicine,” because of its profound

truth, as well as the profound and life-changing ef-

fects that it has when it is removed.

Dr Nelson As time went on, and my practice grew,

my patient’s problems seemed

to increase in complexity as my

ability to help them increased.

 The last 10 years that I spent in

practice I specialized in work-ing with people who were

suffering from conditions that

were considered “incurable” by

Western medicine, complex

problems like fibromyalgia,

chronic fatigue syndrome,

lupus, and even cancer. I con-

sistently told these patients,

“I don’t treat diseases. I don’t

claim to cure diseases. I believe

that the symptoms that you are

having are because of imbal-

ances that are going on in your

body. If we can find those im-

balances and fix them, perhaps

your symptoms will go away.”

And go away they did. Dur-

ing those years, I saw patients

with these difficult problems from all over the US

and Canada. The vast majority of them got well, and

quite rapidly. I didn’t end up helping everyone, andmy success rate was not 100%, but it was very close

to 100%.

Somewhere along the line I developed this very

powerful feeling that people could do a lot to help

themselves. I had this deep, driving urge to em-

power people. I began teaching seminars to do just

that in 1998, and taught as many seminars to as

many people as I could around the US and Canada

for many years. But I was wearing myself out. I was

working in my practice 60 hours a week and thenflying off on weekends teaching seminars, and my

family was suffering for it.

In 2002 I got a message from “upstairs” that I needed

to turn my practice over to someone else, sell eve-

rything I owned, and write a book about this. It had

become clear to me that these healing methods

that I developed were not just for my patients or me.

 These healing methods that I had developed were

for the whole world.

Because of my years as a computer programmer

I was always trying to combine the use of a com-

puter with the healing work that I was doing. The

Body Code was developed in response to my needto figure out what was really wrong with people in

the absolute shortest timeframe possible. I ran my

practice in such a way that I had about 10 minutes

per patient visit. That might not seem like a whole lot

of time, and it’s not. I knew other holistic practition-

ers who would easily spend an hour with a patient.

But I had a secret weapon, and that was the ability

to access their subconscious mind through muscle

testing. As time went on, I developed a “mind map-

ping” system that was perfect for my needs, and that

enabled me to “drill down” and find the underlying

issues as rapidly as humanly possible.

After The Emotion Code was published, I had a vague

idea in the back of my mind that I would eventually

teach The Body Code System to doctors. Although

I had taught most of it in seminars before, I had no

plans to teach it again, as I was putting all of my ef-

fort into getting The Emotion Code out to the world.

However, that was about to change.

AAMET  What was the motivation behind the creation of the Body Code System? 

Te Interview

AAMET LIFE  JANUARY 2013 www.aamet.org

8/14/2019 AAMET Life Magazine - Winter 2013

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/aamet-life-magazine-winter-2013 22/40

One early morning in August of 2008, I woke up to

find my mind full of a very specific instruction. The

instruction was to, “Take all the information that youhave gained, take everything that you have learned

about healing, and put it into a self-study course that

anyone can learn, and make it available to everyone,

everywhere.”

It’s hard to describe how crystal-clear this instruction

was.

 There was no question that this is what I was sup-

posed to do. Yet for just a moment the thought of

how much work this was going to be made me look

upward and ask, “Are you sure about this?” (Therewas no response to this question, but I wasn’t ex-

pecting one, really.) I spent the next year working

non-stop on The Body Code. I would start working

on it before the sun was up and often still be work-

ing on it after midnight.

I believe that The Body Code System is the most ad-

vanced method of energetic healing and of natural

healing that exists on the planet today. It’s really

amazing. And while I would love to take credit for

it, I will never do that, because I believe that I’m just

the messenger. I believe that everything that has

happened to me in my life has prepared me to be

this messenger, to bring The Body Code System to

the world, to bring The Emotion Code to the world,

to give back the healing birthright that belongs to

every single one of us, to turn us back into the heal-

ers that we are capable of being.

AAMET You say that the Body Code System can allow

anyone to become a powerful energy healer, What is theBody Code System and how can it give me the means to

be a powerful energy healer? 

Dr Nelson Imagine if you had direct access to the

most advanced medical database in the universe

and could always get the “correct” answer for any

health question. Now imagine if you could use those

answers to help yourself and your loved ones to

overcome any health obstacle they face, improving

the condition of their lives and adding vibrancy to

their everyday experience of life.

What if you could do all of this from anywhere in theworld with no need to be in physical contact with

the other person? That is the secret behind The Body

Code System.

Put simply the secret is this: The human body holds

all of the answers that we need to help it function

at its absolute peak. The Body Code combines the

proven techniques of muscle testing computer

programming to unlock the hidden healing power

of the subconscious mind. It is simple yet incredibly

powerful.

AAMET What is the difference between the Body Code

 System and other energy therapies, such as EFT? 

Dr Nelson  The Body Code System enables anyone

to practice the art of healing in a very holistic, very

complete way. It relies entirely on the subconscious

mind, on the spirit intelligence within, to determine

what needs to be done for the client. As practition-

ers, I think we all realize that people’s problems arenot always emotionally based, although the majority

of problems are. But what if your client has a low-

grade infection? Low-grade infections very often are

undetected by Western medical procedures, yet they

can cause a lot of trouble. What if your patient is suf-

fering from heavy metal toxicity, structural misalign-

ment, nutritional deficiencies, Meridian imbalances

and so on?

What if what you are currently doing is not enough

to get to the roots of what’s wrong with your client?

 This is precisely where The Body Code System comes

in. The Body Code System is really the result of my

training and work as a computer programmer, com-

bined with the unlimited power of the subconscious

mind. When you access the subconscious mind,

you’re tapping into the most powerful computer

that we know of, a computer that holds all the an-

swers, a computer that knows with a perfect under-

standing what your client really needs.

AAMET  You use magnets to clear the stuck energy,

 how does that work? Why Magnets? 

Dr Nelson Just as trapped emotions are a form of

energy, magnets provide a convenient, concentrated

source of countering energy. I discovered that pass-

ing a magnet down the governing Meridian a few

times will instantly and permanently release thetrapped emotional energy from the body. When I

made this discovery, I was using the magnets that

are made by Nikken, the Japanese wellness compa-

ny. For a number of years I thought that those mag-

nets had to be used, that no other magnets would

work. But after trying all kinds of magnets, with all

kinds of strengths and polarities, I now realize that

any magnet will work, even a refrigerator magnet.

And if you don’t have a magnet, you can simply

use your fingertips, as the body itself is magnetic.You see, the governing Meridian is an energy reser-

voir that connects to all the other meridians. When

a trapped emotion is ready to be released, a few

swipes of the magnet down the governing Meridian,

coupled with your intention to release the trapped

emotion, is all that it takes. It’s incredibly simple and

incredibly fast.

AAMET  What is zero-point technology and where does

that fit in? 

Dr Nelson Another very exciting new technology

that is now available is found in “zero-point” energy

devices. Zero-point energy is the energy that sur-

rounds and is between all the atoms and subatomic

particles of the universe. Indeed, zero-point energyfills the immensity of space. Your body, like every-

thing else that exists, is filled with this particular kind

of energy.

It seems that certain crystals, when pressurized and

treated in a particular way, resonate very powerfully

with the frequency of zero-point energy. I have used

zero-point devices with great success. Not only are

zero-point devices easy to use and very effective

for releasing trapped emotions, they often have an

astonishing ability to reduce discomfort and restorebalance and function to imbalanced tissues, much

like the magnets manufactured by Nikken.

I have witnessed enough success stories to know for

myself that this is a very exciting technology that re-

leases trapped emotions fully as well as any magnet,

and often works to release discomfort and improve

healing in many cases.

AAMET What is your vision for the future of healing and how does your work fit in with that? 

Dr Nelson I can’t tell you how excited I am about the present age that we are living in. I believe that we are

on the verge of a time when healers of all types will work together for the benefit of their patients. As we

finally begin to wrap our heads around the true nature of our existence as energetic beings, and as we finally

understand that the answers to our illnesses lie within our own subconscious minds, as we finally realize that

we can access those answers simply and easily through these technologies, the world can’t help but change

for the better. As Dr. Mehmet Oz stated recently, “Energy medicine is the future of all medicine.” I would hum-

bly add, “The Emotion Code and The Body Code are the future of energy medicine.”

CradleCap

Meta-Medicine is a diagnostic approach that helps to understand the causes of individual’s health issues.

It is not a therapy, but it does precede any therapy; it is a model that integrates mind-body-spirit and social

environment and is a scientific approach that finds and explains the root causes of a dis-ease. A scientific

approach that explains the cause and meaning of any illness or dis-ease. It is based on scientific researchvia brain CT scans and set of 10 guiding principles. Conventional medicine does not have a conclusive un-

derstanding of WHY an illness develops and we rely on someone else to heal us; besides, it does not always

work. We all are individuals, with our personal history, emotions, feelings, fears and we all react differently

to situations. Meta-Medicine helps us to find the reason of dis-eases within ourselves. In this way we become

responsible for our own wellbeing. Meta-Medicine (META from the Greek “beyond”) entails healing and per-

sonal development. It goes beyond alternative treatments by determining and treating the root causes of ill-

ness. Nature does not make mistakes and we should not consider an illness as something “wrong”, but rather

as a message from our body, telling us that we need to understand why we get that health issue, and why our

body reacts in that specific way.

What conventional

 Medicine says..According to a conventional

medical definition, Cradle cap

(infantile or neonatal sebor-

rhoeic dermatitis, also knownas crusta lactea, milk crust,

honeycomb disease) is a yel-

lowish, patchy, greasy, scaly

and crusty skin rash that occurs

on the scalp of recently born

babies. It is usually not itchy,

and does not bother the baby.

Cradle cap most commonly

begins sometime in the first 3months. Similar symptoms in

older children are more likely

to be dandruff than cradle cap.

 The rash is often prominent

around the ears, the eyebrows

or the eyelids. It may appear in

other locations as well, where it

is called seborrhoeic dermatitis

rather than cradle cap. It is ex-tremely common, with about

half of all babies affected. Most

of them have a mild version of

the disorder and severe cradle

cap is rare.

What conventional Medicine can’t explain..As we can see, many babies are affected by it and interest-

ingly DOCTORS ARE NOT IN AGREEMENT AS TO THE CAUSES

OF IT; the two most common hypotheses include fungal in-

fection and overactive sebaceous glands, while it is exclud-

ed that cradle cap is caused by a bacterial infection, allergy

nor from poor hygiene. However, this condition will clear as

the baby matures. Nevertheless it can occasionally persistinto the toddler years, and less commonly into later child-

hood. It sometimes tends to recur in adolescence and may

persist into adulthood.

 My problems on your head I was listening to many mums speaking about what they did

for their little babies affected by cradle cap. Someone was

 just gently washing the head of the child, others were ap-

plying various oils, lotions, petroleum jelly up to the use of

anti-fungal compounds. What did I do?! I thought of using

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) alongside with Meta-

Medicine and see what would happen.

 Meta-Medicine and EFT: it

takes two to tangoI started tapping on myself in connection

to my baby son and see what would come

up…. I was amazed as what emerged was

my fear of not being able to connect withmy child and not being able to understand

him, his needs and “who he is”, with the con-

sequence of being detached and far from

him and not having a close and understand-

ing relationship. I did a couple of EFT sessions

over two days and the cradle cap completely

disappeared. This was at the same time amaz-

ing and beautiful and it totally fitted with the

Meta-Medicine model. For Meta-medicinethe epidermis (or outer layer of the skin) -

where cradle cap occurs - is related to an is-

sue of separation, of loss (or perceived loss)

of contact; also the location is important: in

this case, on the scalp, it could be related to

an “intellectual” separation. This made per-

fect sense to me. Even before the birth of my

child, during pregnancy, I had the fear of not

being able to be connected with him, not somuch on the physical level, but mainly on

the intellectual, spiritual one. And of course,

as he was born, my fear remained as at times

it was really difficult to understand what a

crying baby would need… This was not re-

ferred only to not being able to understand

his material needs, but mainly to what he

would need as a human being, as a soul liv-

ing on this earth and trying to become whohe is meant to be. My main thought was not

being able to understand him, connect with

him and be by his side during his life….

Deeper in the “skin” of Meta-

 MedicineFor Meta-Medicine each disease process is

characterized by 2 phases: the first active

phase which corresponds to the stress phase,

and the second passive phase where we are inregeneration.

Related to the skin, in the first phase we would

find symptoms such as pale, rough, cold skin,

with reduced sensitivity, scaling neuroder-

matitis, dandruff. Why does this happen?

Let’s think of the function of the skin: it is our

boundary and it separates (and at the same

time) connects us with the environment and

with people. When a traumatic/stressful eventhappens, what we want to do is to avoid that

negative feeling, so in this case “we don’t want

to feel separated” so our skin loses its sensitiv-

ity, it becomes cold, less alive. On the other

side, in the second phase (regeneration phase

when we want to connect again) the skin

needs to increase its activity (to be able to fee

again the contact) so it becomes hot, red and

swells, with exanthema, dermatitis, urticaria oreczema, and of course, presence of microbes

(in particular, if there is a fungus the skin has a

red base).

The information is in the field I find it very interesting that what I feel and

fear, my energy and my projections, can so

strongly and directly influence my child, not

only during his first years but also during hislife in the womb. My baby has now just a lit-

tle patch of cradle cap on the right said of his

head… maybe this time his dad should tap on

it (if he is right wired, it is likely to be linked to

his father), so let’s see what will happen!

I’m an EFT practitioner

and a practicing intuitive.

It’s a winning combina-

tion. Intuition can reveal

which areas an EFT professional might target for tap-ping. I never know what information I’ll receive dur-

ing a session. Starting with prayer assures me that I’ll

receive what information I need for that client, for that

session.

One of my most memorable sessions was the summer

of 2011, with a young man whom I’ll call Daniel. I was

visiting a friend in my childhood Washington, D.C.

neighborhood. Her son had a visitor, Daniel. I noticed

this young man cringe with pain whenever he’d move

his body. I inquired.

Daniel explained that he’d been injured in a car acci-

dent several years before, and was taking medication,

but still in intense pain. It struck me that he, at twenty-

five years old, sure was young to keep this pain in his

body, and I wondered why he wouldn’t heal. I sug-

gested that I may be able to help, and explained a little

about EFT. He was willing. We tapped together while

the others observed.

When we started, on a scale from zero to ten, he was at

a pain level of ten plus. It hurt in a few places includingleg and shoulder, traveling as we tapped. At some point

the pain was in his chest. The pain would decrease in

one spot, but then become noticeable in another. We

kept tapping, using basic statements of ‘this pain in my

left shoulder’, ‘I was in a car accident’, ‘I hit the dash-

board’.

It was working just fine, but then suddenly I hit the

mother lode! Guidance was loud and clear. I shared

with Daniel, “I’m getting something about you

... regarding a sister .. something when you were

four years old. Do you have a sister?”  Affirmative.

Daniel then told me his sister was born three days

after his fourth birthday. I asked, “Was she a sicklychild?” He replied, “She was a premature baby.”

 Jackpot!

I knew in that moment we were headed for a

successful session. I suggested to Daniel that he

held onto a belief, all of these years, that the way

to get love was by being sick. We used statements

of ‘being sick means getting love’, ‘I have to suffer

if I want attention’, and anything else that fit the

scenario.

At this point, the pain was leaving really quickly.

We tapped out the old belief that no longer

served, and used truer statements of ‘I can be

pain free and receive love, ‘I can feel good in my

body and receive care from others’, ‘I am ready to

release this pain’, ‘I believe differently now’.

After an hour and a half of EFT, Daniel was pain

free. We checked each area, each one was at zero.

Jaws were dropped. I was humbled. God was at

work. Daniel had a reason for keeping his pain, a

reason of which he wasn’t aware. When we tookthe energy out of his reason - his belief, his body

released the pain it had been holding for years.

Just today, I spoke with my friend and asked her

son about his friend Daniel. He reported, “He’s

been good ever since!”

From what I was told, they tell the story of that

day quite a bit.

Treating PTSD with EFT anThe Sabotage Correction

 The first thing I did with him was to

check using Energy Muscle Testing

(EMT) when he said the statement, “I

deserve to get over the trauma.”

 The muscle was strong, indicating,

against my guess, that he did not

have survival guilt, like many other

soldiers I’ve treated. Yet the mus-cle was weak when he said, “Oth-

ers deserve for me to get over the

“trauma.”

 The first culprit was obviously his

commander. Indeed the muscle was

very weak when Jonathan stated,

“My commander deserves for me to

get over the trauma.”

As we talked, it became apparent to me why

Jonathan was angry at his lieutenant. The order

that was given did not make any sense to me. It

did not make sense to Jonathan, nor did it make

sense to his friends in the special unit.

 The order unnecessarily put the soldiers’ livesat risk. It was not only my judgment that it was

a bad order, according to Jonathan, the captain

was also angry at the lieutenant for giving this

order and chewed him out loudly and passion-

ately about it. Yet, in the long run, the lieutenant

was promoted and is now a colonel.

On a conscious level, Jonathan was not angry

at the lieutenant. He said, “It was as in war.” He

rationalized even the fact that he was promoted

and achieved a higher rank so quickly. He said,

“The lieutenant was macho, tough and without

sentiments; the material good commanders are

made of.”

When I heard about the order, I became very up-

set and angry. Surely it put a few soldiers at risk,

when it was possible to proceed in a more cau-

tious way. Soon, I noticed that Jonathan was not

in touch with any of his emotions. He could not

get in touch with the fear he felt at that time and

with the anguish he felt about one of his fellow

soldiers, David, who was killed in that mission.

Jonathan was totally

detached from his feel-

ings. He said he actually

remembers a certain

moment during combat

that he felt so emotion-

ally overwhelmed with

fear that he felt he was

disconnected, like he

was looking at himselffrom the outside. Since

that time, he could not

feel anything. He refused

to talk about what hap-

pened.

 This emotional numb-

ness and disconnect is

a classic presentation 

disassociation.

Self Sabotage Prevents Recovery from Post Trau-

matic Stress Syndrome (PTSD).

PTSD was diagnosed in at least 11-40% of Veterans of

the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

70% of adults in the U.S. have experienced some type

of traumatic event at least once in their lives. That’s

223.4 million people.

Up to 20% of these people go on to develop PTSD. As

of today, that’s 31.3 million people who did or are

struggling with PTSD.

Throughout my 36 years of experience in psychiatric

 practice I became absolutely convinced that people

cannot completely heal if they subconsciously feel

they don’t deserve to heal, others don’t deserve it, or it

is not safe for them to get over the trauma.

I get to the subconscious in a few minutes to detect

the blockages. Then I use my Sabotage Correction

Technique to get them unstuck.

I worked with a soldier, Jonathan, with a few years

history of PTSD, with the classical symptoms of

nightmares, flashbacks, emotional numbness, and

dissociation from life. He had been in therapy twice

a week with a psychologist in the last four years and

was on a whole cocktail of medications. With all

this his condition had not improved, and he had notfunctioned at work or socially.

and, therefore, was therapeutic. Yet, it was very

disturbing!

Based on his story, I checked with EMT andfound a weak muscle also when checking if Dav-

id deserved for Jonathan to get over the trauma,

indicating another type of subconscious sabo-

tage. I explained to Jonathan there was no way

he could possibly get over the trauma when

he subconsciously felt that these two did not

deserve for him to be healed.

We then proceeded to use SCT to remove the

sabotage. Because of the severity of the symp-

toms, I immediately decided to use the Person-alized Forgiveness Affirmation.

It took quite a long time to remove the subcon-

scious sabotage towards the lieutenant.

 Then we proceeded to deal with his anger at

David for dying. Jonathan did not feel any anger

on a conscious level. “How could one be angry

at someone for dying?” he asked. I explained

that this is exactly the problem.

It is irrational to be angry at someone for dying.

It was obviously not David’s choice. He was thevictim. Yet, on a subconscious level, there was

anger, as was evidenced by EMT.

We were able to successfully remove this sabo-

tage. Now when Jonathan said, “David deserves

for me to get over the trauma,” the muscle that

was weak before SCT was rock solid.

We then checked for “others deserve for me to

get over the trauma.” The muscle was strong,

indicating there were no others. I then pro-

ceeded to check muscle strength with thestatement, “God deserves for me to get over

the trauma.” Not surprisingly, the muscle was

weak. When asked about it, Jonathan said that

he did not feel anger but wondered what kind

of God allowed so much suffering. After doing

the Forgiveness Affirmation for God, the muscle

became strong.

 Article: Self Sabotage

 There were no more weak muscles.

A strong muscle with the statement,

“There is100% subconscious support

to finding the best method to getting

over the trauma,” indicated that now

we can get answers about the preferredmethod of treatment.

We proceeded with, “The best way is

EMDR,” – weak muscle (no).

“The best way is EFT,” – strong muscle

(yes).

 Then I asked Jonathan to guess, if he

would talk about the trauma, where

would he rate his anxiety to be, on a

scale of 0 to 10.

He guessed 10. With a few rounds of

the full protocol of EFT, we were able to

decrease it down to two.

Next I asked Jonathan to tell me the

details of the trauma. He started to talk.

He still felt emotionally numb, but felt

tightness in his chest, rated 9/10. We

tapped on it and got it down to 0/10.

Yet he had sharp pain over the left side

of his head, rated 8/10. We “tapped” it

down to 1/10.

When Jonathan continued telling more

details about the trauma he felt anxiety,

rated 7/10, and we were able to tap it down. He contin-

ued talking and a few times along the story, the anxiety

went up. We were able to successfully reduce it down

substantially to 1/10.

 This was good enough, as Jonathan felt he would not

recognize himself if he would be completely symptom

free. He also expressed his concern that should he be

symptom free, treatment would be stopped, and he was

not ready for it. He also wanted to be sure the military

pension he received would continue until at least such

a time that he would be able to be gainfully employed.

In a follow-up of six months, Jonathan only had some

minor persisting symptoms. He attended computer

school and was looking forward to gradually get off

medications.

The EFT Imagineering

Technique for EndometriosisBy Gwyneth Moss

EFT Imagineering is an applica-tion of EFT that I initially developed spe-

cifically to use when a physical condition

has no pain and is not visible.

When you can feel pain or see

something you have somewhere

to start tapping so what do you do

when the symptom has no pain, or

doesn’t hurt right now, or the pain

is suppressed by drugs? Where do

you start? Well we can tap for the

memory of the pain, for live events

or changes that were happen-

ing when the symptom was first

noticed or for our feelings about

the symptom and that may open

doors to healing. Imagineering

is just another way to find those

doors and get to a point where

you can apply standard EFT.

We can think of the imagination as

being an interpreter between bod-yspeak and the verbal language of

the mind. I was once hiking with

my friend Nancy and as we were

going up a steep hill with heavy

backpacks Nancy’s knee was hurt-

ing. Rather glibly I said “I wonder

what your knee is trying to tell

you?”, sweating under her load

Nancy snapped back “I don’t speak

knee!” That was an AhHaa mo-ment for me. Our thinking minds

speak a different language from

our bodies and can’t comprehend

the body messages let alone take

the action that the body needs.

So the body shouts louder to get

attention. And the mind blocks it

out. I realised then that we could

use imagination as a go between

and combine that with tapping.

Here is an account by myself

(Gwyneth Moss) and Marga of

an EFT Imagineering session.

Presenting in Holland I asked for

someone to come up for a dem-

onstration. Ideally someone with

a physical symptom which does

not have pain and for the purpose

of the demonstration someone

with a good visual imagination.

(We can use EFT Imagineering for

those who’s imagination worksin other modalities and that is

addressed in the five other im-

agineering articles that you can

download as a ebook from www.

emotional-health.co.uk )

Coming up to the stage, Marga

initially experienced some nerv-

ousness and palpitations, 3-4 on

the scale so we did a few rounds

of standard EFT until she felt com-fortable in front of the audience.

Marga explained that she has

endometriosis but that she has

been taking the contraceptive pill

to suppress the pain. Endome-

triosis is a very painful condition

in which the lining of the uterus

attaches to surrounding tissues.

As she sat there she had no sense

of the condition at all. A classic

case for Imagineering.

First we do a test run of the imagi-

nation taking an imaginery light

into a part of the body where the

symptom is not present. Here is

Marga’s test run: Marga: “I put the

light on my finger; my bike LED

light. Put in my head through my

ear; I go through a kind of yellow

tunnel, which is also a slide I enter

the inner part of my head which

looks like a factory with many

floors. There are a lot of workmen

with helmets working on different

machines and dashboards. There

are noises of machines, not too

loud and not too soft. It feels like a

neutral place; everybody is doing

its job, like they should do”

We do the test run so that both of

us can know how her imagination

works then I ask her to take the

light and her imagination to where

the symptom is.

Marga: “I put it on my lower abdo-

men. When I enter I see a red-pink-

ish mass in the middle, it looks like

a human heart. Around it is a black

fluffy, slimy mass. I am walkingin that. It is all around me; floors/

walls/ceiling and it is changing

shapes all the time. I feel my feet

being stuck in it. It makes a sucking

noise when I try to get my foot out

and take a step. It is uncomfortable

to be there and it is hot” . So now

we do a round of tapping using

standard EFT for the imagery she

experienced: “Even though there isa heart surrounded by a black slimy

mass and its really uncomfortable

and hot, I truly and deeply accept

myself” I take her exact words

and put them into EFT. There is no

discussion or interpretation of the

imagery – that would be like inter-

rogating the go-between. As the

practitioner I do not introduce any-

thing, I just keep the process going

letting her manage the contentand we simply let the tapping do

the work. After we tap, I ask her to

take the light and her imagination

inside again.

Marga: “When I enter again there

is more space, it is less hot and

uncomfortable. The heart in the

middle is still there and the black

slimy things have turned into red.

 The whole space is changing in

a kind of corridor and at the end

of that tunnel I see an attractive

white light.”

Again we take her exact words

and do a round of tapping. “Even

though the slimy things are red

and its not so hot and its like a cor-ridor with a light, I truly and deeply

accept myself”

 Then she goes back in: Marga:

“The red has now turned into more

yellow-orange, it is not as scary

and not as hot anymore.”

Another round of tapping using

those words. Marga: “I now enter

through the tunnel of slimy things,

which I leave behind me, in a verycomfortable place. It is a kind of

cocoon where there is bright white

light, a cool breeze and it seems

the walls are made of white feath-

ers, softly and slowly moving in the

breeze. I don’t know what

is going to happen and that is OK.”

Another round of tapping using

those words “When I look up I see a

night sky with many stars. I can feelthere is a whole new world out-

side there and I want to go there.

I am curious to know how it is. But

I cannot get out of my cocoon. I

feel I need help from someone or

something. Like a ladder or a lift.”

Another round of tapping “even

though I can’t get out of this com-

fortable cocoon and I need help, I

truly and deeply accept myself”

“Then suddenly a force from

outside sucks me out of the co-

coon and I am in a hurricane being

swirled around with great force.

It is uncomfortable, I feel out of

control, it is scary. I wonder what to

do; shall I try and do something or

shall I try something new and just

give myself over to the force and

see what happens. It is scary to be

out of control, but also exciting to

be in a hurricane!”

Several rounds of tapping be-

cause at this point Marga be-

comes quiet distressed. She feels

out of control and doesn’t know

what to do. So we go round and

round the tapping points with“Even though its like a hurricane

and I’m scared, really scared and

out of control, I still accept my-

self” and “Even though I don’t

know what to do and I don’t

know what’s happening I really

do accept myself” Then: Marga:

“When I enter my abdomen now

the slimy things have become

soft, pink pillows and cushions.

 The heart is still there. I enter thefeathery cocoon and the sky is

now a clear blue. I feel this co-

coon will always be there for me if

want to go rest or just want to be

there. Then suddenly the cocoon

opens like a flower; the walls

move outward to the ground.

And to the left I see a beautiful

meadow with waving wheat and

sunflowers. The sun is shining.

 To the right I can see the night. I

feels like I can oversee the whole

world and more than that. It is a

place full of possibilities”.

Marga is now smiling and full of

wonderment. I ask her to close

her eyes and enjoy the wheat

field, the sun and the possibili-

ties, reminding her that this place

and these feelings are her very

own experience and she can keepthem and return to them.

Marga: Since I am on medication

for the endometriosis I cannot

“test” if the symptoms have gone

or reduced. I definitely feel lighter

and happier after this Imagineer-

ing session. I already noticed

I can go back to this image of

the cocoon, closed or open, in

an instant. I also realised that I

can just open the cocoon by my

own will. I don’t need help. Dear

Gwyneth, thank you for this great

gift!”The next day Marga retained

the feeling of being lighter and

brighter. She is a medical doctor

and felt positive about taking the

decision to reduce the medicationand thus test for any change in the

symptoms.

I have found that it is important

in using this technique to let the

thinking mind take a vacation

whilst the imagination and the

tapping do the work.

So I don’t discuss or interpret the

imagery whilst we are working

and I simply use standard EFT on

whatever the person says. The

changes in the imagery provide

the test that something is chang-

ing. There are five other articles

on imagineering articles that you

can download as a ebook from

www.emotional-health.co.uk if you

would like to read more and use it

yourself.

Four Months Later Marga writes:

I just want to update you on my

“endometriosis”. It took me a while

to make the decision, but last month

I thought let’s just give it a try and

I stopped taking the birth control

 pill. It was a little bit scary, but I

tapped on the fear for the pain and

the anger about maybe having to

go through it again and that helped

ease my mind. Last week I had myfirst normal period since 5 years and

guess what; no pain at all! I still

cannot believe it and to be honest I

am searching for alternative expla-

nations...

Are You Covered?Promotion

A friend comes to you for treatment or therapy and

accidentally trips up on your rug or step and loses

her two front teeth. She’s a friend and says it’s OK

and you believe her until some weeks later you re-

ceive a bill from her lawyer for her dental work plus

loss of earnings of Euros 5,000. Public Liability In-

surance would cover you in the event of a personal

injury claim during the course of normal business. If

members of the public visit your home or business,

you should seriously consider taking out this insur-

ance cover for your own protection. [If you share a

managed building, the landlord should cover the

insurance for the common parts and toilets only so

you should still insure your own workspace.

What if a client makes an allegation against you that

you inappropriately touched her during a treatment

or that you violated your codes of conduct? Couldyou afford to defend yourself? If you have Profes-

sional Indemnity/Malpractice insurance you would

be protected against allegations of negligence and

also provided with cover for the legal costs involved

in defending you, regardless of the validity of the

claim.

Appropriate insurance is usually a mandatory require-

ment from most professional associations/organisa-

tions anyway. Never believe it won’t ever happen to

you. Litigation cases are big business these days and

all it takes is for one successful claim to be made be-

fore the floodgates open.

Most insurance companies will offer a blanket cover

that includes above plus equipment etc. Remembe

to check all the therapies you are using are included

and what restrictions there may be.

Discounted Insurance: If you’re a member of AAMET

International (www.aamet.org) you can benefit from

the discounted policy cover with Balens Insurance Co

(http://www.balens.co.uk) who have been running

the family business for over 60 years. If you reside

European schemes for all professionals. In order to

qualify for the insurance discount, you will need to be

a student or practicing in EFT with AAMET. If you are
