“Her mother used to be a scriptwriter on EastEnders and is now a healer who helps Harris overcome performance nerves. ‘She does EFT, emotional freedom technique, about releasing childhood traumas impacting on your life through a process of tapping along your meridian points.’

Thanks to her mother, she was able to trace her nerves about having to give a speech back to being 17 and at school. “I had to give a speech in a sociology class and it went really badly. I had done so much research, I got overwhelmed and froze. I felt really awful… But we tapped through that and it has made me much more confident.”

She felt empowered and delighted that she had broken her own rule of “you have to take it, stick with it, don’t be a quitter.” She could reject those judgments and honor her feelings and needs…How beautiful to see her delightful child self coming through in her new freedom to play the violin for enjoyment, free of judgment, free of fear!”

“Any time we need to step up and “perform” in public (like speaking, acting, singing, dancing), an amount of anxiety tends to arise that seems inappropriate for the occasion. When we step out of our comfort zone, magic happens, and magic is not being perfect but having fun. EFT can be magic’s little helper.”

“In EFT, we are always on the lookout for core issues, but sometimes a core issue is so big, it’s like we’re standing too close to a large painting. Tapping through the questions in the way we did was a like a slow stepping back. With each step the whole story was allowed to come into greater focus…”

“The judge’s comment to the trainer/instructor on these riders: ‘All of your students’ rides got better as they went along.’ This is significant because riders and/or horses often become tired as the show goes on…. To see a consistent pattern of improvement among a group of riders of different ages is rare, and a significant outcome.”

Crises as Creative Challenge: EFT for Unblocking Creativity

By: Connie Barrett
Categories: EFT Strategies, EFTfree Archives, Peak Performance

“If I’m writing a new kind of article or attempting a fictional innovation, I will sense, if I’m observant, distinct danger signals. The subconscious mind doesn’t want to get us into trouble. It learned when we were very young what was safe and what was risky, and it is scrupulous about protecting us.”
