Dedication to Lulu
I first met Lulu when traveling in New Zealand years ago where I was invited to teach EFT. I rented an RV while there to travel to the four different cities for classes and, of course, to see other parts of that beautiful country. It was a wonderful experience and a joy to meet so

“…and a little child shall lead them.” – Brandon’s Story
Sometimes our very best teachers are the children. The following story is certainly one of “…a little child shall lead them.” This seven year old not only proselytizes for tapping but has also written his own testimonial. My thanks go to Shari Snow who sent me this endearing story about Brandon when she was volunteering

Ask the “Right” Question to get the “Right” Words
Many tappers have asked, “What words do I use while tapping for …” EFT’s strength lies in getting to a specific event, scene or details that you focus on as you tap. Finding those words most often requires a few questions. It is in the answers to your questions that give you the words to

Teaching Kids to Tap
[Update note: I was the Campus Director for a residential treatment program for severely emotionally challenged children from 1999 to 2005. I used EFT with the children during this time and wrote many stories for Gary Craig’s web site while working at the program. I left the program to direct Gary’s EFT Master program from

Accept reality? Really? Do I HAVE to??
Reality Sucks! Or at least the reality as we may see it in the moment! I struggle with the reality that as humans we will always have “issues.” I don’t want to have “issues.” If I do happen to have an “issue” I certainly don’t want it to stick around! When my issues are painful

“We”
Ever been to the doctor, surgery, or hospital where the staff comes in and asks, “How are ‘we’ this morning?” Ever had your practitioner/therapist etc. say something like, “Well, ‘we’ need to work on…”? As a practitioner have you ever made such a comment to your client like, “Let’s see what ‘we’ can do about

Using Reframes at the Beginning of a Session
Reframes can be used early on in a session to simply reinforce the fact that they have taken a step toward resolution as a way that gives them hope, a feeling of control, a feeling they are not alone – to add in just a chink of a more positive view and perhaps even some

Guidelines for Using EFT with Serious Mental Disorders
We were fortunate to have a few experienced practitioners who have contributed to parts of the EFT Level 3 Comprehensive Training Resource. One of those is Tracey Middleton, LCSW-C (TappingForPeace.com), who has been working in Baltimore, MD with people who have psychotic disorders and Dissociative Identity Disorder (formally known as Multiple Personality Disorder), and selectively uses EFT

Perfect Moments are about the Little Things
Recently, I was in California visiting friends and family, both of whom live near the Pacific Ocean. We went to dinner at a restaurant by a marina where I tried some of the best sour dough bread ever. After dinner we walked around looking at the sailboats with the sun setting as a backdrop. It

Don’t Just Say It
As a Clinical Social Worker I am all about empowerment and EFT is all about acceptance of self – a great therapeutic combination. Clients can often come to us feeling they have no power, little or no control in their lives, and have been spending lots of time in negative self-talk about their own worth.
