LOL!
Hi there Syena,
and of course you are right, entirely right about that. But that -
sigh! - is one of the big problems with EFT. You have to
consciously KNOW or at least suspect or think about the problem.
If you are very good at repressing problems (which I blatantly
am!) and especially when these problems are like the forest and
you can't see the trees at all, then you can't find the right
leverage or opening statement and EFT simply cannot work.
All through those migraine years I never once even began to
suspect it had anything to do with the global and all encompassing
misery of living in the same house with this bloke I didn't want
to have anything to do with any longer and to whom I was by then
probably seriously allergic.
<laughs and shakes head>
If you had *any* idea of the hundreds and hundreds of opening
statements I tapped on during that time!
I did *everything* I could possibly think of, then I used to ring
up friends who were also doing EFT when it was about to start
again and they'd find even more stuff to tap on - but not once,
not the single once, did anyone at all ever do or suggest or touch
anything to do with ex-husband or my relationship or my LIFE at
that point.
We were just messing around with old stuff - childhood stuff,
traumatic memories, well you know.
I have NO idea why oh, a dozen or so of the best therapists and
healers I know and including myself never once thought to tap on
the NOW.
Perhaps if we'd done that, and even opened up that can of worms or
huge dam, I would have had a nervous breakdown or something
because it really was bad with a capital B.
Perhaps we all knew that and so just didn't and worked on the rest
of the system at the time so I could keep on going regardless.
It's an interesting observation and supposition, and its also
interesting that this should come out as it where right here, and
right now - I wonder if this is an important message for one or
more who might be reading - or writing! - this ...
hmmmm ....
