Baya Salmon-Hawk Writes: I wrote this up because it was a very swift resolution of a deep trauma that happened to a new born baby. This is a good illustration of how EFT can work when we have no idea how to proceed. Getting the client to tap on whatever the physical symptom is whilst relaxing and announcing the attention of allowing whatever needs to come to the surface come can bring the most astonishing results. I had no idea that a baby could make this sort of decision and yet it had!

Rebecca came to see me
suffering from
anxiety and a very bad back that was not responding to treatment. She
has received EFT treatment in the past for panic attacks and this had
been successful.
She told me that she had
been adopted
at birth, was very happily settled in her adoptive family but had
lately decided to search for her birth mother, found her and that she
was coming to visit in six weeks time. Her feelings of anxiety and
panic had started then.
She felt her bad back was
due to an
energy block and we started tapping on โEven though, I have a bad
back and I don't know why, and I think its psychological pain, but I
have no idea what it could be, I fully and completely accept myselfโ.
When I work in this way, I suggest to my clients that they let their
minds relax and wonder as they are doing the tapping to see if any
image, feeling, memory or insight comes to mind.
After a couple of rounds of
tapping,
Rebecca said, โit's to do with the baby I once wasโ. We then tapped
on โit's to do with the baby but we don't know what it is and are
open to suggestion and ideas if the baby wants to communicate with
usโ. This can be done when working with pre verbal issues. The
client often says they remember what the baby felt at the time.
Again, after a couple of
rounds, Rebecca
said โThe baby is upset because she has lost her motherโ. After
further enquiry using EFT still, she discovered that when she had
been given up for adoption by her birth mother, she had decided in
her mind that it was the other way round, somehow, she had given up
her mother. This seemed to make the whole trauma more bearable, this
often happens when children are confronted with incomprehensible
happenings in their life. The only way they can make sense of things
is to take responsibility for them. Once Rebecca had discovered this,
she felt her back relax immediately and her anxiety lifted. Still
using EFT, Rebecca tapped on the baby's feelings at the time and
allowed them to flow.
At the end of the session,
Rebecca said
she felt much lighter and happier. She emailed me several weeks later
and said โJust a quick note to tell you that everything was
amazing with my birth mum. We all had the most fantastic 2 weeks and
I was so sad to see her leave. It wasn't too overwhelming-although it
was a bit emotional for the first couple of days- everything felt
very easy and natural. Thank you so much for all your help- it made a
real difference.โ
