This month’s Ask the Expert is with Stacey Vornbrock.
Thank you to all those who asked questions!
Stacey answered questions such as:
• I’d like to know about how to handle the multitude of issues that pop up? Should I spend less time tapping on more issues or more time tapping on one issue till it clears?
• I have tinnitus (ringing in the ears). Can you please recommend a setup and tapping script for that?
• I have a question about your concept of the body harmony, which I don’t fully understand how to use. Could you provide some tapping example on how to use it for people I feel uncomfortable with?
• I wanted to get off my anti-depressant Effexor but had such miserable, horrible withdrawal that my doctor put me on Cymbalta. Now I am ready to get off Cymbalta, but the withdrawal symptoms is just like Effexor. I am miserable. How can I use EFT for these real physical symptoms?
• Do you know of EFT being used for extreme morning sickness (hyperemesis gravadarum) successfully? Would you please recommend what you would try?
• Do you think the gamut point is important and if so how do suggest it is incorporated into our practice?

Filed under Ask the Expert Interviews, Home Page Featured, Interviews

Thank you to all those who asked questions!
Mary answered questions such as:
• My concern is accessing traumas or emotional wounds that are over my head, especially as we open the group to outer circles. Can you offer guidance on what to do, not do and to watch out for?
• Can you please offer guidance on how to tap for the affects of Bell’s Palsy, in hope of regenerating movement of my facial muscles?
• Sometimes I feel the need to tease people close to me, and mostly it’s playfully, but I know it might hurt them and sometimes I cross the line as if I wanted to feel more powerful. Could you give me some directions for tapping?
• Do you have any advice for someone who is looking to get their tapping certification?

Ask the Expert January 2012 with Julie Schiffman

Filed under Ask the Expert Interviews, Home Page Featured, Interviews

Thank you to all those who asked questions!
Julie answered questions such as:
• Do you have any suggestions for someone who has Tourette’s syndrome?
• After tapping on the ‘negatives’ and the truth of that statement feels like a 10, and after tapping on many rounds it still feels like a 10… which way do I go?
• Any tips for people with anxiety? I am referring to people who just feel anxious throughout the day, and can often get the symptoms away with Susan Bushell’s fight – flight tapping, but that usually doesn’t give long term results.
• Any suggestions on how to go about using EFT to help with glaucoma?

Ask the Expert December 2011 with Jessica Ortner
December 5, 2011 by Lindsey Barriga
Filed under Ask the Expert Interviews, Home Page Featured, Interviews

Thank you to all those who asked questions.
Jessica answered questions such as:
• As a hospice nurse and tapping practitioner I use tapping extensively for what ever arises, but have never had any connection to others with end of life usage. Do you have any suggestions?
• I’m wondering if it’s possible to get an EFT certification w/o having a degree in psychology, mental health, etc..?
• My daughter has severe sinusitis. Do you have any suggestions on how to help her out of the pain?
• I have PTSD and chronic fatigue syndrome as well as decades of insomnia. When I tap, there is either no change in my SUD or I find myself plunged unto a place that I can only describe as profound and language-less emotional pain. What or how can I help myself with tapping.
• Any suggestions to help with eczema?
• I need to see a doctor for a serious issue but I am avoiding it because of some traumatic experiences in my past in medical settings. I know that if I collapse my fear I will have to go to the doctor and am avoiding doing the tapping. How do I get started?
• I have the belief that tapping probably won’t work with some of the serious physical issues I have. How do I address this limiting belief?
• Have you ever heard of such examples of using the surrogate tapping to ease someone’s physical suffering if the person cannot help himself because they cannot learn it?
• Regarding surrogate tapping, do you think we can tap on the world issues, for example, to create more peace not after bad things happen, but before to spread good energy?
• Regarding the personal peace procedure, I think it would be useful to have some tapping script examples for some possible issues like upsetting childhood memories or traumas, or even more recent adult memories and traumas. Would you be able to help me out with this kind of information?

• I have severe food intolerance and since almost all socialization is around food it has become very difficult to be the social person I ordinarily am. Do you have any suggestions of a protocol that may help?

• Do you have any tapping phrases that may help my daughter who is pregnant and experiencing severe nausea?
• How would you tap for somebody who has a bipolar condition?

• I feel like I have negative thoughts, fear, and anxiety surrounding me all the time. Do you have any advice?
• I’m experiencing some skin irritation. Are there specific emotions I should be tapping on to help clear this, aside from the symptom itself?
• I experience severe write pains and while using EFT has helped me a lot, the pains keep coming back especially at night when I need my sleep. Is there any advise on what step I should take to get rid of these pains?
• Any suggestions on how to relieve tinnitus?
• I just got a diagnosis of osteo arthritis and have been tapping to reduce the physical pain which has helped. I decided to write down all the things that had changed for the good because of being in pain and all the things that I miss doing. Any ideas on how to proceed?

October 4, 2011 by Lindsey Barriga
Filed under Ask the Expert Interviews, Home Page Featured, Interviews

Thank you to all those who asked questions!
Brad answered questions such as:
• My best friend has recently lost 3 close friends in an accident. I would like to help her with tapping, but I don’t know where to start. Apart from clearing the accident itself, how would you suggest to approach such a delicate matter as death and loss of a friend?
• Does it matter if I close my eyes or keep them open while tapping?
• Any suggestions on how to release feelings of guilt over feeling obligated and responsible for others?
• Any suggestions on how to relieve the pain from Frozen Shoulder?
• My husband often sabotages his financial success. So you have any tapping phrases that could help with his blocks to success?

• I’m struggling with my PhD thesis writing and academic writing in general. Any suggestions on how to overcome limiting beliefs about my writing?
• Any suggestions for tapping on making money, creating abundance, having happiness, having freedom and losing weight?
• I find my 7 year old son copying me when my friend and I tap together, but when I try to get him to do it for himself he says no. Should I be addressing and tapping on my issues and frustration with the situation or having my 7 year old tap or both?

Ask the Expert September 2011 with Carol Look
September 7, 2011 by Lindsey Barriga
Filed under Ask the Expert Interviews, Home Page Featured, Interviews

Thank you to all those who asked questions this month!
Carol answered questions such as:
• Regarding surrogate tapping, I would like to know how to tap not on my emotions around someone’s health problem but this person’s physical medical condition/pain when that person isn’t tapping? Would it work?
• I’ve been recently observing much stronger release of energy in the form of constant yawning and very strong tingling/trembling in the legs during and after every time I tap. Could this release be an indication of not clearing the negative emotions enough yet, even though the level of intensity on the scale 0-10 goes down or remains quite low?
• Does it matter what language I speak in when I tap?
• Do you have any advice or suggestions about the connection between my physical health symptoms, my thought that something bad would happen, my circumstances, and my recurring anxiety?
• I have been unwell with chronic illness problems for several years. I have severe levels of candida and toxic molds in my body. Do you have any tapping suggestions that will address these issues in my body?
• Any suggestions on how to approach tapping for skin issues such as rashes and spider-veins?
• Do you have any advice on how to help my daughter build confidence and overcome her reading challenges?
• My 11 year old son is very serious at times and seems to draw toward negative energy. How can I help him raise his frequency?
• My husband feels that he deserves more than 6 figures, yet his actions are saying the opposite. How does a sense of entitlement fit in with abundance issues?
• In your experience can you actually change/recondition long held, deeply imbedded negative beliefs with EFT? If yes could you discuss how you would go about it?
• Any suggested tapping scripts or protocols for high blood pressure?
• Do you have any advice on how to use tapping for fear of public speaking?
• You frequently talk about the need to feel your emotion(s) when tapping. What if you have difficulty feeling those emotions?
