An example of the subtle yet amazing power of the EFT “bonus” known as...


By ENYS EVANS A


n elderly friend of mine named Joy, was having to leave her small village to move closer to her sister who lived in a big town 200


miles away. She had always lived in the countryside but was becoming more and more forgetful due to suffering a mini- stroke some years back. She didn’t mix much and struggled to communicate.


She really didn’t want to leave the village. She had always lived within a couple of miles of it, she felt that she knew every- one, and also felt that she was leaving the house she had been happiest - which was when her parents were alive and were living with her.


She was fearful of not being able to make new friends, of losing her way in a strange place, of leaving everything she was used to.


One day, I asked Joy if she would come over to help me with a problem that I had. One of Joy’s delights in the world is to help other people – she came over immediately. I explained to her that my 11 year old daughter was starting High School in September and that she was


very nervous and frightened about it, and so would she help me tap for that when my daughter came home from school. (I’m not sure why I went about it this way – it was just a feeling I had that be- cause of her giving nature she would put her heart and soul into it if she thought she was helping another.)


That morning, I had already primed my daughter that Joy would be coming over and that we were going to tap for her go- ing away to live elsewhere. My daughter was in fact nervous about the transition to the new school. So they both thought they were helping each other.

I asked my daughter how frightened she was of going to the new school and she said 6.


I asked Joy on a scale of 1-10 how much she wanted to stay in the village and she shouted out TEN!!


So all three of us tapped for -


ET (Even though) I really don’t want to leave my little school – it’s lovely, I know everyone, everyone is so friendly, and it’s small enough for me to find my way around IDCAMA (I deeply and complete- ly accept myself anyway).


ET I’m sure I’ll get lost in the great big new school, and I’ll be so frightened because I won’t know my way around IDCAMA


ET I won’t know anyone, and I’m afraid no one will like me, and I won’t make any new friends IDCAMA


ET I really dislike leaving my ‘friends’ and the places that I associate with them I know that they are always in my heart no matter where I go in the world. I choose to keep the memory of my ‘friends’ alive in my heart where ever I am.


I wonder if I could be happy in a new school .. I wonder if there are some nice people going to be there .. I wonder if I could find my way around easily .. I won- der if it will be a new start for me..


I’m going to be open to the possibility of THE AAMET MAGAZINE I AUTUMN 2010 I www.aamet.org 31 enjoying my new school.


I’m going to be open to the possibility of making new friends – wouldn’t that be great?!


I’m going to be open to the possibility of finding my way around easily – maybe it will be even easier to find my way there than it is here.


I choose to allow myself to look forward to the new school.


I choose to allow myself to anticipate with excitement the new people I’m go- ing to meet.


I choose to allow myself to find my way around easily and calmly.


I’m delighted how easily I can fit in anywhere


I’m thrilled that I find it so easy to make new friends


I love the feeling of being in control when I’m driving about.


After we finished I asked Joy how she felt and she said:


“The thing is, it’s a bit boring around here isn’t it? You know, there aren’t many people here are there? Nothing ever happens. The house I’m going to is on a lovely street and there’s a park behind my house for the


dogs. And do you know, mama and papa are always with me wherever I am.”


My daughter then said that she was look- ing forward to the new school as the work was boring in her primary school and there was only one girl her age to play with!


After Joy moved I rang her up to see how she was getting on and she told me that she has joined the church, joined the local choir and made friends with her neigh- bours.


A lovely case of borrowing benefits which took less than an hour!
