This is the post that you will bookmark and show your friends to prove just how crazy I really am. Or it could be the page you bookmark and come back to because it’s so valuable. Either way, I’m really going out on a limb here with this one. This is weird — but hey, IT WORKS, in a matter of minutes. And, I’m nice enough to tell you about it, so you’ve got to love me for that. But if you’re skeptical, keep this in mind while you’re reading this: This cure has basic core components that are actually very practical:
* Zeroing in on the core issue that’s causing the distress.
* Stating the issue out loud — validating.
* Physical touch. (Touching spots that you probably already do touch when you’re stressed.)
* Give attention to a problem, and attention always changes things. A proven property of quantum physics.
We’re just going to learn to organize it all into a neat little symphony that optimizes all the things you’re already doing. That doesn’t sound too weird, now does it? Plus, I do happen to know a thing or two about stress. This technique has been used to help adults recover from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, children who are victims of abuse, fussy babies, and to help a child recover after an ice cream cone falls on the sidewalk.
The best part? This is a very quick cure, so even if you are skeptical, it’s not going to eat up too much of your time if you try it. If you’re skeptical, and still with me, it may interest you to know this: “the prestigious medical journal, Lancet reported that acupuncture may have been used to heal people thousands of years ago.” Also, in her book, Temes, explains that the National Institutes of Health are already studying acupuncture and have “concluded that acupuncture does some good, some of the time, for some people.” And, The American Cancer Society lists acupuncture as a stop-smoking tool.
This cure comes under the category, Energy Psychology. Now, stop moving your mouse toward that back button. Stay with me. Do you really want to be standing in the middle of Macy’s again while they’re screaming, “I hate you”? Some psychotherapists use this method for rapid treatment, others don’t believe in it. No one is sure how tapping works, but some theories say that when a person goes through a traumatic experience, a blockage develops in the energy field. The block creates phobias, distress, or all kind of emotional ailments. By tapping the energy flow on specific acupressure points, the energy begins flowing again. Other theories say it’s electrical activity, while others say it’s our magnetic field that is out of balance that causes the disruption. More research results can be found here, here, and here.
Regardless, you don’t have to understand how tapping works for it to work. You just have to know how to do it.
I learned this technique from several sources. Most notably, from the book, Instant Emotional Healing: Acupressure for the Emotions. This book gives very long, detailed cures (based on research from biofeedback) for a specific range of emotional problems. Each emotion, (post traumatic stress disorder, fear, anxiety, depression, anger, nervousness), has a specific protocol treatment. The book is very detailed, and is specifically designed to help you help yourself without a medical examination.
Then, I found The Tapping Cure: A Revolutionary System for Rapid Relief from Phobias, Anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and More In this book, Temes gives shorter version of the specific protocols, and makes it easier to use in public situations.
Practitioners of the method are adamant about making sure you can do this method for yourself — you don’t need to go to a therapist, or a doctor. Freedom at Your Fingertips: Get Rapid Physical and Emotional Relief. However, because the method is so simple and fast, every step in the protocol is critical. To get good at this, pick up some of these books, visit these web sites and learn about psychological reversals, eye movement patterns, and how to uncover core blocking beliefs. But these steps are not hard to learn. (Four basic steps can be read here.) But just to get you started, here’s an instant cure for a child in distress:
1) Know the cause of the distress.
2) Depending on the age of the child, stress level, try to hold the child — if not, try to make eye contact.
3) Say something comforting about the stress, and end it with something loving. For example: “Even though your ice cream fell, you’re OK”. Or, “Even though they called you a cheater, I still love you.” Or, “Even though you’re mad about leaving the store, I still love you.”
4) The entire time you’re saying the statement, tap one of these spots (scroll down, it’s there. I know these pictures look scary) or here. The karate chop spot (side of hand, where you would hit if you were making a karate chop) seems to be the most effective, but you can try whatever seems to be working at the moment. Here are some other books to check out at the library, or buy from Amazon: Tapping the Healer Within : Using Thought-Field Therapy to Instantly Conquer Your Fears, Anxieties, and Emotional Distress. And,Energy Tapping. Here’s to a stress-free afternoon. Oh, and by the way, don’t forget to tap yourself — especially right after that temper tantrum. And who knows, maybe it can help this cute one get to sleep. I really like her idea, of giving up multi-tasking. because yes, the simplest answer really is the best, and brings less stress for everyone.
