If you are interested in EFt (emotional freedom techniques), you will want to know about the EFT Free Video Summit 2011. It’s coming up November 28 through until December 4, 2011. The link is EFT Free Video Summit 2011
Daily, you can catch as many as 14 free videos by EFT masters such as Brad Yates, Carol Looke, Alina Frank, Jade Barbee, Tanya Prince, Margaret Lynch, Gwyneth Moss and various others. The Hub is owned and managed by Gary Williams of the UK. The instruction at the Hub is based on the ground breaking work done by the now retired Gary Craig.
EFT tapping, otherwise known as meridian tapping, has proven to be highly effective at healing or improving an array of conditions, both psychological and physical. The process is loosely based on acupuncture points, but uses no needles. Practitioners tap lightly with their fingers on pressure points on the face and body while focusing their attention on the condition that is problematic.
It is an excellent tool with weight challenges, given that it can reduce cravings, address food addictions and modify underlying emotional issues that may be contributing.
EFT tapping has proven helpful at curing phobias, reducing pain, reducing anxiety, dealing with stress and post traumatic stress disorder, to mention just a few. It’s also proven helpful at helping the body heal from any number of physical conditions.
I use EFT religiously ever since I discovered its effectiveness several years ago. I have had so many excellent results that I would love to see everyone give this a try.
EFT is easy to learn, painless, free (in this case) and has little or no side effects. Possible side effects that I have noticed include sleepiness, thirst, occasional sneezing and a tendency to burp or cough shortly after doing the activity.
Why not give it a try? You have nothing to lose except some of your unwanted issues.

If you or someone you know suffers from physical pain, you may want to check out the online Pain Relief Summit. It launches online on October 3, 2011.
The link is: Pain Relief Summit
The summit is free to attend. It teaches participants to do meridian tapping to reduce or eliminate chronic pain or short term pain. Meridian tapping is a highly effective form of alternative healing. Although we don’t fully understand how it works, it appears to stimulate energy pathways in the body, and this in turn frees blocks that may be contributing to an unwanted condition.
The Pain Relief Summit consists of a demonstration and training video each day for a week. The videos are left online for 24 hours so you do not need to be available at a specific time.
Personally, I have used meridian tapping for several years and I have had remarkable results in various areas of my life. I recommend it highly.
Why not give this a try? It’s free. There are no undesirable side effects to meridian tapping, and you have nothing to lose but your pain.
The videos are available for purchase as well. This, however, is a choice that you may or may not make. There are no strings attached to watching the videos for the week beginning October 3.

If you struggle with food or weight issues in any way I want to recommend a video for you to watch right now.
It will only take you a few minutes, its free, and it will have a profound impact on you, in a very tangible way that you’ll be able to feel right as you watch.
The video is of EFT expert Carol Look using EFT Tapping with an audience member at a live event called “The Tapping Experience”, to help her overcome her overpowering food cravings.
Here’s what I recommend…
Watch the video and as you do, do the EFT Tapping along with them. Even if you don’t know how to do Tapping just copy what they’re doing and repeat what they’re saying as if you were one of the members of the audience.
And as you do you’ll begin to feel how effective EFT Tapping is in helping people get to the root cause of food and weight issues and how it is used to resolve these issues quickly.
Here’s the link to the video:
Video for Food and Weight Issues
One interesting thing that you’ll realize when watching is that your food issues aren’t about the food…
Yup, that’s right…they are NOT about the food.
You’ll get to find out what they ARE about as you watch the video and tap along.
This is some powerful stuff that can have an immediate impact on your life.

Enjoy the video and make sure to share your comments on how the video effected you on the blog after you watch.
I understand that up to this point you’ve probably just been told to deal with weight issues by eating less and exercising more. It hasn’t been that easy though has it? If it were that simple, no one would be carrying an extra ounce of fat.
You’re about to find out that there’s more to it than that but there’s a simple solution…

EFT refers to Emotional Freedom Techniques, and it refers to meridian tapping. It’s a technique similar to acupuncture but without the needles.
I mentioned elsewhere on this web site or blog that I restored thinning hair by using a combination of Silva Method Meditations and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques or meridian tapping, as it is also called).
A reader emailed me and asked for more details about this occurrence. Although it is nothing to do with weight loss, I will include the story here for the benefit of others who may be interested.
A few years ago, my hair thinned out dramatically, on the top of my head. Fearing impending baldness, I visited a dermatologist who diagnosed the condition as female pattern baldness. This is a genetic condition and is prevalent with the women in my family.
The dermatologist prescribed Rogaine, a drug that is sold by prescription in Canada. Daily use of Rogaine restored my hair, but I would have to continue using it for life or the hair would fall out again. I eventually discontinued the drug due to ongoing itchiness, an unpleasant odor and constantly greasy hair. As predicted, my hair once again fell out.
This time, I decided to use a combination of the Silva Method meditations and meridian tapping as explained by The Tapping Solution.
I’m not sure of the precise time frame, but my hair returned within a year of commencing regular tapping and visualizations. That was perhaps two or three years ago now and my hair is still doing fine. In fact, for the first time in my life I have grown it long and am wearing a pony tail.
The woman who contacted me asked for suggestions and help. I am not an expert at restoring hair loss, so I can only tell you what happened to me and how I did it. Others trying this may need to modify the process to suit their own situation.
As for the Silva Method, I learned this bundle of techniques years ago in a real life workshop. If there are live events offered in your area, you could consider attending. Check out Silva International on the web. They have a list of trainers in various locations.
Otherwise, you can purchase the Silva Method course online in the form of DVDs, ebooks, audiofiles and so forth. To restore my hair, I used a Silva technique known as Mirror of the Mind, and I did this “programming” as it is called, two or three times a day.
If that sounds like a huge time investment, it really isn’t. Once you learn how, you can do this while you are riding on the bus, walking on your treadmill or in bed before you go to sleep at night.
Along with regular use of the Silva meditations, I used EFT, otherwise known as meridian tapping. I tapped at least once daily regarding the hair growth or lack thereof.
If you are familiar with tapping, you will have a general idea of how it works.
The issues I tapped on include:
1. My feelings around the hair loss
2. My annoyance with other people who treated it as no big deal. (It was a BIG deal to me!)
3. My belief that the hair loss was genetic and therefore permanent and inevitable
4. My belief that DNA controlled the situation
5. Any situations that made me “want to tear my hair out.”
6. My long time belief that my hair was “not good enough”. Previously, I had disliked my hair, considering it to be too thin, too straight and a mousy brown in color. I tapped on getting rid of this belief and on “liking and loving my hair.”
7. A belief that I would be disloyal to my mother and female cousins if I did not go partially bald as they did.
8. Negative feelings as to how “awful” life would be without hair — dislike of wearing wigs, aversion to wearing bathing caps when swimming, being the butt of unkind comments, etc.
9. My views towards my own femininity and the role that hair played. (Ever hear the old saying that “a woman’s hair is her crowning glory”?).
As I have mentioned, those are the main issues that I considered to be worth tapping about. Other people will certainly have different issues.
The woman who emailed me asked if I still do this tapping and Silva work about my hair.
I’m not sure how to answer that. I no longer tap or do meditation specifically about the hair growth. However, I do tapping and Silva meditations daily for general well being as well as for specific situations. Whether my hair would continue to grow if I discontinued doing these practices, I do not know.
I hope this is helpful to those who may be in the same boat.
The Half Price Membership Sale at EFT Hub Universe has been continued until January 3. For half of the usual price, you get a lifetime membership that entitles you to the many, many EFT and energy healing audios as well as a beginners ebook in PDF format. New audio files are added regularly, so there is always fresh content. The audio files represent interviews with prominent names in EFT and other forms of meridian tapping. Brad Yates, Bruce Lipton, Tania Prince, Carol Look and many others.
The audios cover a wide range of subjects, including many that are suitable for beginners who are inexperienced or unfamiliar with energy medicine and energy psychology. Other, more advanced topics cover weight and body image, overcoming trauma, healing from chronic pain and chronic illnesses, addictions and more.
The tapes are appropriate for those who want to use EFT personally as well as those who are developing an EFT therapy practice.
I took advantage of this sale personally, and purchased a lifetime membership. Since then, I have spent so much time listening to the audios and doing the tap-alongs that I am almost ready to email Gary Williams and chew him out for taking up so much of my time over the holiday week! LOL
Seriously, its a great bargain and the files are well worth the very reasonable membership price. I actually emailed Gary and complimented in on the site, saying that I had no buyer’s remorse.
This membership was a gift to myself for 2011 and beyond. I also bought a Flip Camcorder as a personal gift on Boxing Day. Of the two, although I love the Flip, I expect the EFT Hub membership will be the more lasting and more beneficial of the two.
Looking for a way to start the New Year off right? Consider this EFT Half Price Membership Sale

I have just published an article explaining the link between menopause and weight gain.
Its a multi-faceted issue, cause by a combination of factors: decreased activity levels, a higher BMI caused by loss of muscle in relationship to body fat, hormonal imbalances and a lowered metabolism.
I didn’t mention this in the article, but in some cases, fatigue and lack of sleep may also contribute. Menopausal women often experience sleep distruptions, due to hot flashes and other related miseries. The link between tiredness and weight gain is recognized. Lack of sleep leads to increased craving for foods high in carbohydrates, which in turn leads to weight gain.
Of course exercise and diet play a role.
However, as you know if you have been reading posts on this blog, my strong belief is that there are few situations that can not be improved by the use of EFT or tapping.
Start by tapping on your feelings and attitudes connected to the menopause and weight.
What you say will depend on your individual situation, of course. I would say something like:
“Even though I am gaining weight and putting it all on my stomach, I deeply and completely accept myself. Even though I hate what menopause is doing to my body, I accept myself anyways. Even though I feel badly about my age, feel badly about my changing body, feel badly about my lost youth, I accept those feelings as valuable and part of who I am.”
Etc.
I would tap on the fatigue and tiredness, if that is an issue.
I would tap about any attitudes or feelings I have related to menopause itself.
I would tap at resistance to exercise, if such it the case.
I would tap about hunger pangs and food cravings, if appropriate.
Try any and all of that. Tap on anything that comes up or comes to mind while you are tapping. And continue to tap regularly until the you feel the issue3 has been addressed.
Menopause and weight gain are commonplace happenings. You are not alone.
The surprising fact is that many conditions can be improved by visualization and weight loss is one of them. It works like this: you keep a vision in your mind of how you want your body to look, and subconsciously you will begin acting in a way that will go in that direction. You become much more positive about your body, more accepting of your diet or fitness regime, and you will reach your weight goals more quickly and easily.
I personally use and advocate the Silva Method, which in my view is bar none the best visualization program available.
Effecting change through visualizing desired outcomes has become more and more acceptable in recent years. Psychologists do not understand exactly how it works but clearly the mind and body are not as separate as we often believe. It seems that if you truly want something it is more likely to happen – provided of course that it is something that is possible, and within your control. Visualization helps us to truly want to lose weight by creating a clear and happy picture of our fitter bodies. Without this we can often put psychological traps in our own path.
Many people who are overweight believe they cannot lose weight. Sometimes you may say it out loud, or hear friends say it about themselves. For other people this belief stays in the subconscious. But it is sure that it influences our behavior. Someone who believes it is impossible for her to lose weight will be constantly battling her own negativity when she is trying to diet. Her mind will be constantly telling her there is no point dieting, she cannot lose weight so she should just go ahead and eat everything she wants. Visualization is the strongest technique that we can use to overcome these negative thoughts and impulses.
If you are plagued by negativity either from your own mind or from the reactions of friends and family to your diet, go ahead and visualize yourself at your desired weight as often as you can. It works on the same level as all those negative voices and can annihilate their influence like nothing else can.
It is important to practice every day – morning and evening if you can. You just need to take a few minutes in a quiet place and keep an image in your mind of your body at its ideal weight. Some people can do this easily, others need some help. If you have a photograph of yourself at your ideal weight in the past, you may find it easier to look at that. Or use a photo from a magazine but cut off the person’s face. You need to visualize your own body, but thinner.
You can also visualize from the inside. Close your eyes and let your awareness focus on a part of your body – for example, your right thigh. Imagine it slowly becoming thinner in your mind’s eye. Then move to the other thigh, and on through the body. It may help to start at the feet and move up towards the head, or vice versa.
As you go about your work or daily chores, think of yourself as already at your ideal weight. Create your own affirmations and repeat them often, always in the present tense (“I am glad to be flexible, fit and slim”, not “I will …”). Enjoy the feeling of having a positive self-image. Over time, this will help you to keep to your weight loss plan. You will find that fatty foods are less attractive and exercise is more enjoyable.
While your weight loss will of course be gradual, the wonderful thing about visualization is that it gives you a new body image right away. Use visualization and weight loss to make you happier right now, today!
