We tapped and tapped until the emotion had subsided. Then Amanda got an image of a little girl being gently bounced up and down by kind and loving arms. She said, "I want to think of the loving arms of the Universe always under the plane, guid- ing it safely to its destination." So we tapped a few more times to acknowledge this healing outcome:


“Even though I had such a fear of falling... it's time to bring healing to this... and I see the little girl gently bounced, safely bounced up and down by loving arms... and the loving arms of the Universe are always under the plane...”


Amanda felt immensely better. When I tested our work by


having her think of being on a plane and say, "I feel like I'm go- ing to fall any second," she could no longer feel the dread in her stomach and wasn't connecting with the image of herself falling through the sky anymore. Instead, she felt curious and intrigued! She had no idea that the root of her fear of flying might not have to do with planes at all. Now the idea of being on a plane wasn't nearly as upsetting.


We ended up doing several more sessions to deal with the previous flight experiences, but the initial intensity never returned. The last time I spoke with Amanda she had bought her tickets!


Looking back at the session, I believe that listening carefully


to my client's own words and paying close attention to her de- scriptions of what she was feeling were the keys to uncovering the core issue. As we used her words and tapped, it was like following a thread back to the source.
