Beyond EFT?
Silvia Hartmann writes: It must have astonished many people that
six months AFTER I unveiled EmoTrance, my own "creation" and
contribution to the field of meridian & energy therapy approaches,
I would have spend this much time and effort in writing another
major book on, of all things, EFT! Dear old, simple, classic EFT.
Now why would I do that? I am not the type of person to produce a
sequel to the wildly successful "Adventures In EFT" just because
of the money - I can't be motivated to go through the true effort
it takes to plan, write and produce an 80,000+ word full scale
manual with a few dimes. The truth is that ...
... EmoTrance, as wonderful as it is and in many ways, as easy as
it is, still needs a bridge.
EmoTrance was never designed as one of those stand-alone,
cure-for-all cult like therapies or healing systems which tells
all who would listen that you don't need anything else, this is
it, we have Nirvana.
The universe is a complicated place, and it is my contention that
everything has an ecology and a rightful place in the gigantic web
of life - including EmoTrance.
Perhaps it is because I am a woman and don't have either genetic
nor entrained desires to go "silverbacking" and deny where I
learned the things I know or pretend that I'm the new king of the
castle and everything that went before was meaningless, I am in
the happy position to not have to decide whether I should be
endorsing either EFT or EmoTrance.
In my opinion, both systems have a more than rightful place in
self help and therapy, and they work together like a dream.
One is not better than the other, or righter than the other; both
are outstanding "across the board" for a multitude of problems and
it is true that I looked to the content free design of EFT which I
admired so very much when I designed EmoTrance and made jolly sure
that it would share EFT's truly fantastic benefits in that way.
I believe that a good, no a full knowledge of the systems of EFT
and the treatment procedures are the very best grounding in the
new energy therapies approaches one might hope to find.
Working with the energy therapies, a great many things that were
previously learned about healing or counselling are simply no
longer applicable; some things are even diametrically opposed to
what used to be standard procedure for a hundred years.
There is a lot to learn still.
I would not have been able to understand what I needed to know to
design EmoTrance without EFT; and I believe that any student of
EmoTrance would seriously benefit from knowledge about EFT - and
vice versa.
As I said, these two techniques go together like a dream and fit
perfectly, covering between them a span of possibilities of
healing and growth for an individual, it is actually quite
difficult to conceive.
The title of this article is, "Beyond EFT" and that is quite
correct in the sense that EmoTrance works with energy systems
beyond EFT as well as using a completely different model of the
energy body - an evolutionary rather than a static one. This be as
it may, EmoTrance *is* a direct progression and in being so, is
inextricably linked to EFT by precedence and also, by approach. I
don't want to actually say that not everyone is ready yet for
EmoTrance all the time; the fact is that there are times and
place, especially with clients but also in self help, where EFT
provides the safety anchor in preference to EmoTrance.
The Advanced Patterns of EFT is therefore both the progression -
the missing link, if you will - as well as offering inordinate
flexibility in negotiating our own energetic levels and layers,
and our levels and layers of consciousness.
Below is the Conclusion from Advanced Patterns of EFT which
explains this further.
In the meantime, I highly recommend serious students of EmoTrance
to take a look at these patterns; and anyone who does EmoTrance
should, in my opinion, also be very well versed in EFT.
Here is the conclusion to Advanced Patterns:
Beyond EFT
Now, here we are at the end of “The Advanced Patterns of EFT”.
As certain things already show, there are of course dimensions of
mind-body totality healing we have not even thought to touch or
investigate properly.
There are many hints of totally other states of being, other ways
of experiencing anything all through the application of EFT – just
classic EFT and nothing more! – to common human problems.
In the summer of 2002, I developed something that takes the base
learnings from all the many, many EFT sessions and approaches I
had worked with and, going back to the drawing board completely,
shows a new way of dealing with disturbances in the Energy Body.
This new way is called EmoTrance, or ET for short.
EmoTrance is both far simpler and far more complicated than EFT.
It is simply other than EFT and it was my pleasure in preparing
this book to really come face to face with how other EmoTrance
actually really is, because it arises from very different
propositions about how humans work in their totality and what
needs to be done to restore “The Even Flow” – a human energy
system firstly working again as it was originally designed to be
working.
However, I will not now nor will I ever either forget or forget to
give credit and the most inordinate respect to EFT and its
originator, Gary Craig, who gave me the tool I needed to make
EmoTrance.
The funniest thing of all at the very end of this book is to say
that EmoTrance simply makes most of the patterns here redundant.
However, I appreciate that I came to EmoTrance via exactly these
patterns and in performing these advanced patterns and working
with them, I pushed the existing paradigm to its limits. When
those limits broke under the strain, I learned how to do it
differently altogether.
I would therefore invite you to use these patterns, with all due
respect and care and all the disclaimers, because they are the
bridge from EFT to EmoTrance and that whole other map of the world
and the magic you will find therein.
I sincerely hope that the students of EmoTrance now and in the
future will not only read about these patterns, but actually do
some of them because they hold the proof in actuality of why and
how EmoTrance works and that knowing about these patterns and
understanding them will deepen their own connection between the
original psychology precepts and what we are dealing with now.
Such an understanding is in my opinion vital at this stage in
order to allow people to move from the old to the new without a
sense of loss, without experiencing apex effect because it is
simply too mind blowing to shift paradigm without some form of
stepping stone system to help make that necessary and in the end,
inevitable transition.
I would also further invite you as you work with these patterns to
always retain a sense of the question, “What do they all have in
common?”
These patterns here are just a minute proportion of what I could
have written about.
In answering this question, or even just attempting to answer it,
lies breath-taking progress into whole new possibilities of
growth, change, healing and most importantly, a state of being for
humans that is so other from what we have been shown these last
100,000 years or more, that you could even say – at last , there’s
hope.
With best regards to you on your path,
Silvia Hartmann
