Example of EFT Used for First Aid

Example of EFT when used a First Aid tool:
 
3 days ago Brad missed a step, falling on his right hip on the concrete sidewalk. He looked at me stunned. As he assessed his possible injuries, he seemed to be ok.
 
I assisted him to get up and off we went for our hour walk.
 
However, I told him to tap - on what he felt NOW about hitting the cement with a thud. He complied, tapping on his knee, his hip and shoulder which hurt and his EMOTIONS of embarrassment, fear and stupidity for missing the step for probably about 10 minutes as we walked. He tapped longer than I would have and it was probably to his benefit!
 
This man is 70 years old.
 
I have asked him every morning subsequently to the sidewalk collision how he felt.
 
His answer is the same - no pain, no residual discomfort EXCEPT for the "fabric burn" on his knew which he DIDN'T tap specifically about. This is why we need to tap on every detail of an incident.
 
Within an hour after he tapped he told me 90% of the discomfort was gone!
 
Now, isn't that amazing! Who hits the concrete and doesn't hurt?
 
How did tapping help?
 
When we tap, we neutralize the fear, embarrassment, pain, etc. lowering the cortisol, allowing the DHEA level to rise so the body can heal whatever was injured.
 
When we obsess about any thought/injury/disease, we continue to run UP the stress hormone cortisol which depresses the healing hormone DHEA.
 
Tap please on everything!  God has given us a wonderful tool, IF we only use it!

Remember, EFT is not to be used as a substitute for sound medical or psychological care. Contact your own personal physician when appropriate to care for yourself.
