<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-859" href="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/atft-foundation-planning-to-tap-for-better-health-around-the-world/events/attachment/group"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-859" title="ATFT Foundation Board Member Meeting" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/group.jpg" alt="ATFT Foundation Board Member Meeting" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>All but one of the foundation’s dedicated board members came together for this meeting.  They paid their own expenses to travel to Sedona for a weekend of brainstorming and planning, led by board member Bruce Paton, a retired PepsiCo executive, who has led many similar strategic planning sessions in the past.</p>
<p>Mary Cowley, Suzanne Connolly, Jenny Edwards, Joanne Callahan and Darla Terry-Ausmann were all present as Bruce led us thru our planning sessions.  Sunday morning we had the pleasure of Roger Callahan, Jim Cowley and Dariah Morgan joining us as we shared our goals and plans for the future.  We appreciated their various perspectives as we fine tuned our vision for ATFT Foundation’s future.</p>
<p>It was an exciting experience, sharing ideas, energy and a common goal of spreading TFT throughout the world with research, education and humanitarian work.  I was amazed at the synergistic effect of all of us getting together in the same place.</p>
<p>Suzanne and Bruce Connolly graciously hosted the event in Suzanne’s office – and just two days after arriving home from a month in Rwanda.  That, in itself was unbelievable.  It was a delight to hear the stories from Suzanne’s trip</p>
<p>Bruce Paton was a skilled facilitator and leader throughout the entire weekend.  He even provided all of us with a summary by Sunday evening, while still traveling, from a restaurant in Flagstaff.  I will share some of his notes and summary.</p>
<blockquote><p>“Our objectives were twofold&#8230;get to know one another better (teambuilding) and to create a strategic plan (increase foundation effectiveness).&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>We defined strategy as &#8220;<em>a series of integrated initiatives designed to produce desired results</em>&#8220;.  We defined plan as &#8220;<em>a predetermined path from which to knowingly deviate</em>&#8220;.<span id="more-858"></span></p>
<p>The process led us to a consensus among the board.</p>
<p><strong>Our top priority item is to create a powerful PR and Marketing campaign.</strong> This plan is to include a documentary, involve various well known TFT advocates and increase public awareness.  This plan will enable us to better accomplish our foundation goals of education, research and humanitarian service.</p>
<p><strong>The next priority is to create accepted treatment and research models for a number of problems including trauma.</strong> This will include coordinating work with our ATFT Foundation UK and our affiliate Rwandan IZERE Center.</p>
<p><strong>The third initiative is to work toward having TFT accepted for PTSD treatment in the US military. </strong></p>
<p><strong>The fourth initiative, close behind the third, was to increase our funding. </strong></p>
<p>Our key next steps are for our leaders  to draft a three year supporting plan to present at the next foundation board meeting in September with a view toward a final plan for presentation and acceptance at the October board meeting.</p>
<p>Some additional initiatives, with a secondary focus are:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">•	Establish TFT centers globally (could be a follow-on to Rwanda center)<br />
•	Establish TFT as accepted treatment for disaster relief<br />
•	Facilitate locals helping themselves, similar to work in Uganda<br />
•	An initiative to reach out to organizations who are doing similar work and already in place<br />
•	Expanding to include more resources/leaders to support our work received<br />
•	Creating visuals for fund-raising events received.</p>
<p>There were many other suggestions and initiatives with lesser priority, including hiring a full-time administrator.</p>
<p>The weekend ended with all of us feeling energized and excited by what we envision and what we know we can accomplish.</p>
<p>Roger was excited and proud to see what we have accomplished and our plans for the future.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="smoking" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/70987531@N00/3434241519/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3309/3434241519_dfec6dcd8d.jpg" border="0" alt="smoking" /></a></p>
<p>TFT is very effective at helping people to quit smoking, along with many other addictions. If you want to quit smoking, we hope that Michael&#8217;s story will inspire you</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">In the spring of 08, for the third time, I contacted a local hypnotherapist for help with smoking. This woman said she uses EFT. We did a few sessions over the phone. I was and am a skeptic by nature. I kind of laughed it off and stopped doing the sessions.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Sometime  after, I was in the local book store and saw  Roger&#8217;s book <a href="http://www.rogercallahan.com/products.php" target="_blank">Tapping the Healer Within</a>. I bought it went home and read it cover to cover in one sitting.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I did the algorithm for addiction. I felt happy and had an unexplainable smile after doing it and my desire for a cigarette was reduced. I guess the skeptic in me took over because I didn&#8217;t do it again and continued to smoke.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Now I am not sure why, but in July of 08 I did the algorithm on three different occassions, all with a couple days of each other.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">It wasn&#8217;t until the third week of September that I realized, during the month of August, I only smoked on the weekends&#8230; and not all of them. I didn&#8217;t think about or really crave a cigarette, and from the beginning of September till the third week I hadn&#8217;t smoked at all.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>I never made a decision that that was it, it just seemed to happen.</strong> I should mention I am one who doesn&#8217;t seem to be able to rate myself on the sud scale, but I got results !</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The last day of September I bummed a cigarette from my brother, I didn&#8217;t even smoke half of it, I got so sick, sweats, hot, vomiting, my whole body felt ill. All I could do was lay on the couch the rest of the day. <strong>I have now been smoke free for 8 months.</strong> I have no desire what so ever to smoke and I have this uncanny feeling inside that I know I will never smoke again. For this Roger and Joanne I thank you both.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The lung association says the 6th month is the hardest, most people fall off the wagon in the 6th month. When I use to go drinking, I would smoke a lot more than usual. So for my 6-month test I went to a smokey bar and drank while sitting between two smokers, it didn&#8217;t bother me other than I hate the smell of cigarettes now (LOL) I never wanted a cigarette at all.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>I am 47 years old and have smoked for 32 years.</strong> I have over the years tried many things and many times to quit. I tried the patch, gum, Dr. prescribed pills, group hypnosis, 1-on-1 hypnosis as well as other unconventional methods. All with little or not success.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">At the time I quit using TFT, I was smoking 2 to 2 1/2 packs a day. Now 8 months being smoke free, I have no desire to smoke at all. Since I have used the TFT algorithm to cut down on my coffee/caffeine intake, I was drinking 10 to 15 cups a day&#8230; <em>no lie ! ! !</em> I now I have 2 &#8211; 4 cups a day.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Again, thank you Roger and Joanne.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Sincerely ,<br />
Michael J Bernard<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-851" style="margin-left: 11px; margin-right: 11px;" title="tapping-health" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/downsized_0517001618.jpg" alt="" width="254" height="318" />I am a 75 year old Catholic nun and I have a heart problem, atrial fibrillation, and hypertension and fast heart rate and a stroke. I could not walk without a walker or a cane and I am always tired and have no energy. I have no quality of life and I frequently get depressed that I cannot do anything. My doctor told me that I am a challenge to medicine. I have tried all kinds of medications for my problems but I could not tolerate most. I am just getting weaker and weaker.</p>
<p>My doctor called my attention to the book &#8220;<em>Tapping the Healer Within</em>.&#8221; by Dr. Roger Callahan. I went to buy it and starting reading. When I finished I felt that this is something that could help my problems. I called the TFT office and inquired more about Dr. Callahan. I was told that Dr. and Mrs. Callahan were in London. The secretary e-mailed Mrs. Callahan about my problems. I was touched by Mrs. Callahan&#8217;s response from London telling me to call her on her return from Europe. I had the privilege to talk to her and she said she would try to find someone nearby that could assist me.</p>
<p>I called her back to see if she found someone and she highly recommended Mrs. Christina Mayhew Dx, an advance coach of TFT. I connected with Christina and without delay she sent me the Thought Field Therapy Client Intake Sheet.</p>
<p>On June 15 she went through the lists to check my sensitivities to all the items going in and on my body, food, laundry detergent and other things. I followed her instructions religiously. She guided me on the treatment for toxin the next day. Then to my surprise, after two days I was able to walk slowly to receive Holy Communion without any help, which I could not do before. So I am very grateful to TFT.</p>
<p>Every two weeks, I have my blood test for Coumadin. I would bleed after the removal of the needle for several minutes. This time there was no prolonged bleeding and they were surprised. My blood pressure and pulse rate are also normal now.</p>
<p>My coach has more work to do with me checking the toxin. She is very good and I am very grateful for the present improvements. For me personally, I strongly feel that TFT is the answer to my challenges in my present condition. As I said we still have more to do but I am very optimistic that TFT will restore my quality of life in the near future.</p>
<p>So I want to thank Dr. &amp; Mrs. Callahan for providing us a wonderful and effective harmless tool for a better life. May God bless them and my coach, Christina Mayhew for this wonderful God given gifts.</p>
<p>With grateful love and prayers,<br />
Sr. Mercy, O.C.D.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fourth of July in the United States is a major Holiday where were celebrate our independence and birth as a Nation.  Most businesses are closed in observance of this patriotic occasion.</p>
<p>Major cities around the world have festivities, parades and concerts. The night ends with awesome displays of bursting color and light forms dancing against the dark backdrop in the sky.  The Awe’s, Oh’s and Wow’s from the spectators can be heard echoing under the magnificent burst of light with loud pops and bangs.</p>
<p>For many living in the outskirts of the city or for those who choose not to travel into the crowded cities, friends and families come together and celebrate with each other at their homes.  They create their own excitement and shoot off their own fireworks.</p>
<p><strong>But, what happens when an exciting, fun filled evening turns bad? </strong> My 22 yr. old nephew, was in a rural area enjoying the festivities with other family members.   After a day of boating and swimming, everyone sat around the campfire as several of the adults went over to the secured area to shoot off their own fireworks.</p>
<p>That’s when the evening turned disastrous. As soon as my nephew lit the fuse on his firework, it exploded in his face.   Since it was dark, it was hard for anyone to determine how bad he was.  There were several EMT’s at the party who started administering care right away.  The closes ambulance was too far so they rushed him themselves to the closest hospital emergency center.  His parents were 3 hours away and no one could get a hold of them.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-835" href="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/fireworks-gone-bad-tft-for-trauma/trauma-relief/attachment/burns"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-835" title="burns from fireworks" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/burns.jpg" alt="" width="475" height="196" /></a><br />
The day after the accident.                            Healing underway</p>
<p>At the hospital, they had to remove various shrapnel from his forehead and eyes.  He had 3rd degree burns over his face and forehead and his eyes were badly burned.  They did what they could and advised getting him to an ophthalmologist as soon as possible.  A friend drove my nephew home so we could see about getting him additional medical attention. Since Monday was a holiday, we could not find a doctor who was open.</p>
<p>When I found out about the accident, I immediately called my sister-in-law and told her that I would come over to work with both of them.  She was pretty shaken up when he got home and saw how bad he was.  I always have my clients tap the side of their hand to clear any reversals, just in case.  Next, I showed her the trauma algorithm and then had her to the anxiety algorithm. She said that there was noticeable difference in her anxiety and she felt much calmer.</p>
<p>My nephew was in major pain and traumatized over the ordeal. I immediately had him start tapping the side of his hand to keep his polarity out of reversal.   I instructed him do this as often as possible.  Since he could not move his eyes without intense pain, I used myself as a surrogate when doing the pain algorithm and the trauma algorithm.  Since most of his face and eyes were badly burned and blistered, I tapped the spots on me, holding the intention for him. When it came time to do the 9 gamut sequence, I tapped his gamut spot and did the eye movements myself.    He said it did help some.</p>
<p>In addition to TFT, I gave him Bach Rescue Remedy under his tongue and on the areas that only had 1st or 2nd degree burns.  His Uncle had recently bought an “Amega – zero point field energy wand” which we started wanding his face and eyes every couple hours.</p>
<p>My sister finally found an ophthalmologist who could see him on Tuesday.  The doctor said that his right eye was traumatized with blurry vision and the left eye had a severe burn on the cornea.  The doctor prescribed a steroid drop and antibiotic to prevent infection.  He told him that it could take 2-3 months to restore full vision in the eye if he even got full sight restored.  The doctor told him to come back on Friday for a follow up.</p>
<p>I continued to work on my nephew with the TFT, Rescue Remedy cream and the “Amega” wand.  We also kept after him to treat for reversals by tapping the side of the hand.</p>
<p>On Friday, the doctor could not believe how improved everything looked.  My nephew could barely open his eyes on Tuesday. Now, he not only had them opened, the right eye was almost normal and the left eye had 80% vision restored.  The scabbing on the face/forehead was pretty much gone and there was no real sign of scarring.  He now only had a egg size area where the 3rd degree burn was.</p>

By Noël Battal &amp; Natasja Looman, Deventer, the Netherlands</p>
<p><em>First, we wish to offer our congratulations to Roger and Joanne for their ACEP Award</em>!</p>
<p>In May 2010 we attended the Optimal Health course in London, England. We were very curious about Voice Technology and we were thrilled to learn that technique from Roger and Joanne! It was really a wonderful course.</p>
<p>At Saturday (our second course day) everybody had to practice VT over the phone in front of the group under supervision from Roger and Joanne. We had to choose a volunteer who we could call for a VT treatment. We asked our Mum in the Netherlands if we could practice on her and that was all right with her.</p>
<p>Our Mum had a fear of water since she was a little child (she’s now 63 years old). She only could handle water up to her knees.  If the water came above her knees she would have a panic attack with hyperventilation. Walking with only her feet in the sea was okay, but when a wave came, she got frozen, her eyes got very big and she got very scared. Sitting in a boat was never an option for her, and neither was swimming. Even when she imagined that she could fall in the water, she would get a very fast heartbeat, she felt dizzy, and would start to breath very fast, and nearly get a panic attack.</p>
<p>We really wanted to help her with this fear, but we thought that this case was to complex and to difficult for a first VT practice as our Mum had this fear for nearly 60 years! So we asked Roger and Joanne if this case was too difficult to start with, but they say: “<em>do not say something is too difficult, just try it!  And, remember Roger’s first TFT case was also with a fear for water (Mary’s case)</em>”.</p>
<p>So we called our mother in the Netherlands for a VT session and asked her to work on her fear for water. She said  ”Oh if I could lose that fear…, is that really possible?”<span id="more-826"></span></p>
<p>So we started our VT session with her thinking about the water is coming above her knees. Her SUD was a 10+.   We analyzed her voice and corrected her PR, after that we got a sequence with 5 treatment points. After having her do the whole holon, we asked her again to concentrate on the water coming above her knees and asked her SUD. She said “I don’t feel anything”, we thought that she was not focusing good enough so we said “Mum, please concentrate on the water” Again she said “I do, but I don’t feel anything”. So we said: “Mum, imagine the water is coming up to your head and above your head …” She said: “I imagine that, but I don’t feel anything”.</p>
<p>We were very confused and thought she may not be a good volunteer. Joanne stood up and said to us “Just believe her! Your mother doesn’t have an apex problem, but you do!” So we thanked our mum for being our volunteer and finished our VT session. In the evening we called her again, to check her SUD and it was still a zero. The next morning we called her again, because we couldn’t believe it ourselves! We surely had an apex problem ourselves, how could this 60 year old fear be gone in just one holon? The whole week after the VT treatment we called our mum and every time we spoke to her we expected her to say “well, the fear has come back”, but she didn’t! She too was very excited!</p>
<p>After one week she was on vacation with my our dad and afterwards our mum called us, she said “I have something to tell you” we thought ‘oh no the fear has come back?’ But it didn’t, she told us that her fear for heights has gone too after her VT treatment for water!  For the first time in her life she was sitting in a gondola, she did it like it was very normal to her, but the surprised face of our dad reminded her that it wasn’t normal before. After ten days our apex problem finally disappeared and we realize that this technique is really amazing! We use it on a daily basis for ourselves and we practice it a lot on clients. Now we really have the feeling that we are helping people and ourselves.</p>
<p>We recommend it to everyone who really wants to make a difference in the world and in their own life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Janet Thomson is a TFT diagnostic level practitioner and an algorithm level trainer.  She has been in the media and nutrition and fitness industries for many years and has authored several books in that arena.  She is a very vibrant and energetic speaker and trainer.</p>
<p>She does an excellent job of creating media awareness for her work and TFT and we&#8217;re pleased that she always gives recognition to Roger.</p>
<p>Janet was recently interviewed by the Daily Mail in the UK&#8230; in it she tells her story of <em>How to Tap into Happiness</em>.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-814" href="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/thought-field-therapy-tapping-featured-in-the-daily-mail/thought-field-therapy/attachment/article-1293914-0a678161000005dc-445_233x719"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-814" style="margin-left: 11px; margin-right: 11px;" title="Janet Thompson Tapping" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/article-1293914-0A678161000005DC-445_233x719.jpg" alt="" width="233" height="719" /></a>When businesswoman Janet Thomson walked away from her marriage after 25 years, she was wracked with guilt. But she was able to free herself from the past with an extraordinarily simple technique &#8211; tapping.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Driving past the beautiful home where I had raised my children, I expected to be overwhelmed with emotion. There was so much to remember: My boys running endless races on the lawn.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">My daughter wheeling her dolls pram up and down the drive. The summer parties. The birthdays and Christmas celebrations.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The list was endless and every memory was a reminder of what I had lost.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">My home, with its six bedrooms, its pool room and breathtaking conservatory, now belonged to strangers. I had been forced to sell it after a painful divorce.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">But while I could remember every detail of my former life, I was amazed to discover that I didn&#8217;t feel even the faintest flicker of emotion. Every bad feeling had evaporated.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I could look back on my old life and all the trauma of my divorce without a single tear. In fact, the only thing I felt was immense relief to know I had &#8216;cured&#8217; myself of heartache.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I&#8217;d managed this not by months of soul searching and expensive therapy, but by the simplest means imaginable. I literally tapped my emotions away.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I&#8217;m no fool &#8211; I&#8217;m a successful businesswoman with a masters degree.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">But I am utterly convinced that, while it may sound absurdly simple, Thought Field Therapy (TFT) is an extraordinarily powerful tool.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Tapping various parts of your body while concentrating on the event that&#8217;s troubling you, you eliminate the effect of those memories.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">When you have a trauma, you hold a memory of that trauma in your body in the form of a code that your body uses to re-assess the negative feelings. These codes are stored in your meridian systems &#8211; the pathways through which the body flows energy and which are used in acupuncture.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Here, Janet, 48, from Leicestershire, explains&#8230;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1293914/Can-really-erase-lifes-traumatic-events-memory-tapping-fingers.html#ixzz0tTiW2R00">You can read the article on tapping here:</a></p>

<em>Joanne Callahan, President, ATFT Foundation</em></p>
<p>There are currently <strong>two TFT healing and training teams</strong>, teaching local community leaders how to help their neighbors, families and colleagues how to tap away the pain of loss, trauma, grief, despair and fear.</p>
<p>ATFT UK  Foundation’s board members, Dr. Howard and Phyll Robson, have joined a healthcare team led by Dr. Carolle Jean-Murat, California, providing community outreach for many in La Vallee, Haiti. Howard and Phyll are treating many and more importantly, are teaching a group of 32 leaders, clergy, teachers and professionals in TFT trauma relief.   They will leave behind a TFT skilled and caring group to continue helping others.</p>
<p><strong>They will soon be traveling to outlying areas with their new TFT trainees to support them</strong> as they begin to help the many children and refugees from the devastated Port Au Prince area.</p>
<p>This model of teaching the local people to carry on with the healing tools of TFT has proven to be very successful in Uganda and Rwanda and we expect similar results in Haiti.</p>
<p>The ATFT (USA) Foundation’s trauma relief team, Suzanne Connolly, Caroline Sakai, Gary Quinn and Cyndi Quinn, have also just begun training a new group at the TFT algorithm level, and are scheduled to begin a diagnostic level training for those trained in previous years.  They will also begin two follow-up studies to the work done in Kigali and Byumba in 2008 and 2009.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium  wp-image-803" style="margin-left: 11px; margin-right: 11px;" title="haiti2" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/haiti2-300x200.jpg" alt="Haiti TFT helps" width="300" height="200" />They said they were welcomed with smiling and appreciative faces, friends from their previous trips, all telling stories of how TFT has helped their community over the last year.</p>
<p><strong>Rwanda has been an excellent example of how these missions can grow to serve an entire region.</strong> The IZERE Center (Reconciliation and Peace) in Byumba, Northern Rwanda has now been successfully helping the people of their region with TFT trained therapists for a full year.</p>
<p>Please help us carry on this much needed work.  If you wish to help or contribute with further missions to Haiti or Rwanda, please<a href="http://www.ATFTFoundation.org"> click this link to the ATFT Foundation</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-783" title="Lifetime achievement tapping" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/award-use1.jpg" alt="ACEP Lifetime Achievement Award" width="500" height="393" /></p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-784  alignright" style="margin-left: 11px; margin-right: 11px;" title="roger-joanneuse1" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/roger-joanneuse1-300x225.jpg" alt="Joanne Callahan and Roger Callahan ACEP Lifetime Achievement   Award" width="240" height="180" />It was truly an honor to be recognized by colleagues from around the world, for my thirty years of building Thought Field Therapy (TFT).   There was so much excitement and warmth from so many of the over 500 people attending the annual ACEP conference.</p>
<p>People came up to me throughout the four days telling me how pleased they were to carry on my work into the world.  Others said, “<em>you saved my life three years ago</em>”.   Some I have met previously but had not seen for years, others I did not know but all showed the same warmth and appreciation with a passion for helping others.   It was inspiring to see all the various forms of Tapping, the research being done and the humanitarian relief work that is helping so many people throughout the world.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-790 alignright" style="margin-left: 11px; margin-right: 11px;" title="roger-carol" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/roger-carol.jpg" alt="The source of tapping" width="249" height="259" />Joanne and I received a standing ovation from our workshop “<strong><em>Thirty Years of Healing With Thought Field Therapy</em></strong>” as we demonstrated the power tools of TFT and showed the many changes and improvements that have taken place in TFT over the last three decades.  They were so grateful and some even expressed surprise at how much TFT has evolved from it’s early days as the Callahan Techniques.</p>
<p>I was so proud when our ATFT Foundation team, Suzanne Connolly and Caroline Sakai, presented their humanitarian relief work and PTSD studies and announced the acceptance for publication of the first study.  They too received a standing ovation and a very strong endorsement from one of ACEP’s lead researchers, David Feinstein.</p>
<p><img class="alignright  size-medium wp-image-785" title="roger-joanne-2" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/roger-joanne-2-300x234.jpg" alt="ACEP Conference" width="300" height="234" /><strong>The entire conference was exciting with a wonderful positive community spirit.</strong> I am pleased to see that our practitioner base is growing and we welcome all who are working with tapping, at the algorithm level, to continue on with their skills and grow with our new training programs in TFT.</p>
<p>A special thanks to all of our clients, practitioners and &#8220;tappers&#8221;&#8230; you&#8217;ve helped to make TFT the success it is today,</p>
<p>Roger Callahan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-382 alignnone" title="boston-Roger and Joanne Callahan" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/boston-09-ohc-002.jpg" alt="boston-Roger and Joanne Callahan" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p>Roger and I have just returned from the UK and a great Optimal Health course where some of our long time practitioners of TFT, as well as a few new ones, have added the Voice Technology level to their skills.  They came from numerous health care fields to add the convenience and effectiveness of TFT VT to support the emotional health of their clients and training base.  It was a very diverse group and we all shared information on tapping within the fields of nursing, acupuncture, homeopathy, naturopathy, Reiki, hypnosis, trauma specialists and counseling, and, even a little EMDR.</p>
<p>Roger also taped a brief interview with Tom Greenhalgh, Executive Director of <a href="http://www.npssinc.org/">National Public Safety Solutions</a>,  for his training programs.  I taped a brief segment on our trauma relief work and our Freedom R &amp; R program for our returning veterans, for <a href="http://www.atftfoundation.org/">the ATFT Foundation</a>,  and <a href="http://tfttraumarelief.wordpress.com/">our Trauma Relief Blog</a>.</p>
<p>Tom has an excellent production crew and facility and our hope is to have these tapes available to all our trainers for use in their trainings as well.  I will keep our trainers posted on their availability (on the trainer’s list serve).  Thank you Tom!</p>
<p>During the course we saw some excellent improvements in HRV’s as we worked on everyone’s personal issues throughout the weekend.  The objective self-testing and self-treatment methods allowed everyone to help themselves in many areas, as well as improve their clients, especially those who they had found difficult to help in the past.</p>
<p>One attendee helped a client with the recent death of a parent, another helped a sibling with PTSD from war, and several helped family members with various physical pain issues.  We had a variety of problems to practice on and they were enlightening learning experiences for everyone.</p>
<p><strong>Also, we&#8217;ll be hosting another &#8220;Learn to Tap&#8221; Teleclass.</strong></p>
<p>It has been a great experience for both Roger and I, and our class attendees.  They are doing an amazing job of applying tapping to themselves for  all kinds of life stresses, past traumas, over eating, claustrophobia and much more.</p>
<p>The teleclass format has proven to be a very effective way to help many people and provide them with one-on-one interaction with Roger and I, at a very reasonable cost.</p>
<p>Our country’s current economic state and the increased daily stress for most people make a low cost, easy to attend tele-class an effective way to solve problems.</p>
<p>As many are facing job interviews, employee reviews, new social or peer groups as your situations change, we find many of our customers are experiencing some degree of discomfort with these events.  The class starts at the end of the month .</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-757" href="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/tft-relief-in-haiti-la-vallee-de-jacmel/trauma-relief/attachment/image002-2"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-757" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" title="Vallée de Jacmel" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/image002.jpg" alt="" width="264" height="198" /></a>The commune of La Vallee de Jacmel is situated in the Southeastern portion of Haiti and is comprised of 18 townships dispersed throughout the territory. The area was within the epicenter of the devastating earthquake of January 12 and its deadly aftershock on the 16th. There are about 4,500 homes that had an average of 3 to 5 members. The majority of these homes were badly damaged or completely destroyed.</p>
<p>Following the earthquake, they have become overloaded with relatives – young and old, who had emigrated to Port-au-Prince or Jacmel, survived the earthquake&#8230; but have lost everything. The average household is now 15 to 20.</p>
<p>Many who survived the earthquake are now dying of sadness, heart attacks, or just “going crazy.” I guess that it is a way for them to “check out” because there is no hope.</p>
<p><strong>We are elated about the idea of offering a 2-day training</strong> that will help alleviate the suffering of our people. Little help have reach them since the earthquake last January the majority of the population is living under tarps and few tents with no hope in site.</p>
<p>Godfroy (Gody) Boursiquot  , is the leader of a NGO CODEHA – Corde Enfant Haitiens a member of the  Angels For Haiti  . CODEHA’s headquarters is in area called Au-Tuff, not too far from the main town of Ridore, where the hospital where I usually provided free medical care is located.</p>
<p><object id="VideoPlayback" style="width: 400px; height: 326px;" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="100" height="100" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=6292295551857121621&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=true" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed id="VideoPlayback" style="width: 400px; height: 326px;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100" height="100" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=6292295551857121621&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=true" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Gody will be the one coordinating the training and will gladly keep tract of whatever information that you need regarding the effect of TFT on the population of La Vallee de Jacmel and its surrounding areas. I am sure that with time, trainees will eventually return to other areas of Haiti armed with an excellent tool for healing. This is truly a great – win-win opportunity for all involved. TFT could not have a better opportunity to be introduced in a country and be recognized for its healing values.</p>
<p>We are contemplating offering the two-day training to people in position to affect many others such as teachers, nurses, community leaders, medical and nursing students (the only medical school in Haiti was destroyed killing most of the doctors, patients and medical students), etc. Imagine all these people living under tents or tarps themselves. I would also be a great opportunity FOR THEM TO HEAL WHILE LEARNING!</p>
<p>We plan to give a certificate of completion to each participant. We will extend the training to those in the county of La Vallee as well as those who can make it from Port-au-Prince and other areas devastated by the earthquake.</p>
<p>We feel that training 60 people would be a good number. It will cost us $100 per person. This would include providing food, lodging and arranging for transportation from the remote villages, for a total of $6,000. This may also include having them stay an extra day and arrange for people to come for treatment – this of course would increase the cost.</p>
<p>In view of the threat and the acuity of the mental health deterioration, I have already told my medical team that I would not spend time delivering medical care, but be with Guy, for whatever time it takes during our stay to make this a success.</p>
<p>Thank you so much for offering this opportunity to the earthquake victims. I am confident that it will create a lasting impact in their lives, as well as given them a tool for healing others as well.</p>
<p>Love and blessings,</p>
<p>Dr. Carolle</p>

<p><strong>Dr. Jeanette Magdalene tells her story: </strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I have been working with what is known as <em>Awareness During Anesthesia</em> for 18 years.  <em></em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Many people don&#8217;t know that<strong> more then 100 people per day</strong> will wake up during their surgery and not be able to speak, move, open their eyes, anything to let the doctors know they are awake!</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>This happened to me in 1990 during my own surgery.</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I  woke up before the surgery even began only to find myself buried within my body that no longer worked as I knew it. The surgery began, I felt every cut of the knife , smelled and felt my flesh burning , everything everyone was saying and even stepped outside of my body as my heart started to go into arrest and viewed everything the doctor was doing to get my heart under control.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I even heard the doctor say there was nothing wrong with me! <strong>Misdiagnosis so never needed the surgery to begin with!</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I was offered a large settlement but turned it down so I could speak about this and help others like yourself never to know what I went through. I threw myself into my own research and blew one of the most well kept secrets in medicine wide open. To date I have changed every hospital in America, I teach at every medical school the U.S.A, written a book on <em>Anesthesia Awareness</em>,  have been interviewed in  T.V and print throughout the world, and tons more that can be viewed on my website: <a href="http://www.aware4life.com" target="_blank">www.aware4life.com</a> .</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I also have worked with Military and Law Enforcement for many years and always felt these type of people needed more for themselves due to the high level of stress and traumas they experience. I&#8217;ve put different programs together for them &#8211; <em>Anesthesia Awareness</em> &#8211; and it took on a life of its own.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Then one day a friend told me about something she heard of called Thought Field Therapy and wanted to know if I would want to go?</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I jumped up and said yes lets go! She said <em>&#8220;why would I go? That&#8217;s your type of work</em>&#8220;. I looked at here and said &#8220;<em>do you know how I stayed alive on the operating table? By learning. You never know when something like this will help you somehow in your life so your going with me</em>&#8220;.<span id="more-736"></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">We went and I&#8217;m here to tell everyone, TFT blew me away! It was amazing because for about 15 yrs I was still dealing with the aftermath of <em>Anesthesia Awareness</em> and PTSD. <strong>I was learning how to live with it, and realized I wasn&#8217;t living&#8230; I was only existing.</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">In Suzanne Connolly&#8217;s TFT class she showed me how to put the missing pieces of my life in order, and take the sting out of the trauma within the deepest parts of my being.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">There is not a day that go&#8217;s by that I do not ask God to bless her and Dr Callahan for the true gift of TFT. This is not another band-aid over a wound&#8230; its a Gift of Life!</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I&#8217;ve been there and can tell you I&#8217;ve tried everything and only 2-3 that have worked&#8230; <strong>and TFT is one of them.</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Today I use TFT with everyone I work with from the very start, and it has made such a change for myself and those I&#8217;m working with. In the Military and Law Enforcement there are things that they can &#8221; <em>Not</em> &#8221; talk about.  When I tell them that&#8217;s OK, because to be honest, I don&#8217;t want to know. We can still work together. Once I show them TFT&#8230; well, I&#8217;m very much loved!</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">A lot of people have ask me to talk about their &#8220;thing&#8221; and I have said &#8220;no thank you&#8221; until now. I would though, recommend Thought Field Therapy&#8230;. From trauma to daily stress it  truly a God sent gift.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I am taking TFT to a new level in my new book on PTSD. I&#8217;m writing this book with a gentleman who was a POW in <em>WW11 Batin Death March</em> for 3 years. <strong>We both understand torture , near death, fear, loss, and everything you never wanted to know about PTSD. </strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The real nightmare for me began not only on the table, but after I went home and had to deal with the trauma of awareness.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">No one knew what I was talking about due to never hearing about it. A Physiotherapist that I went to had told me it had to do with my childhood, and something I buried within myself. No matter how I tried to explain what happened, they would not except it as truth, until my work in <em>Anesthesia Awareness</em> started coming out.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I understand that it was hard for anyone outside of Anesthesia to believe it. It&#8217;s a true horror story but It was mine and I believe God gave me this experience <strong>because <em>He/She/ It</em> knew I would do the right thing with it</strong> and I have.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>I&#8217;m sharing it with all of you in the Thought Field Therapy family</strong>. I&#8217;ve learned that in the end the only thing I take with me are my choices, so I choose wisely.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Trauma teaches you that you may not be able to pick what trauma you will have in life, but know you will always be lead to receive the help you need. After that gift is given, there is  a bigger responsibility that comes with it. Its called sharing. So from my heart and soul to yours I share with you what I know in hope of helping others.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Wisdom saves lives. When we don&#8217;t understand something, its may be shock of the unknown that could take a life.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Love and blessings always,</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Dr Jeanette Mary Magdalene</p>

<p>“I accidentally removed my hand from the motorcycle throttle while in first gear. The next instant I was slammed onto the garage floor, the air knocked out of me, with a 500-pound motorcycle covering my body…</p>
<p><strong>The owner anxiously asked, ‘Are you still going to buy it?’ I jumped up, dusted off my jeans and responded, ‘Absolutely!’ ”</strong></p>
<p>This dramatic story of a sudden and spontaneous motorcycle purchase opens “<em>Repotting Yourself, Financial-Emotional-Spiritual Flow</em>”, the second and <a href="http://www.repottingyourself.com">newest book by award-winning sales professional Mary Lou Dobbs. </a></p>
<p>The motorcycle incident is the catalyst for the 60-year-old Dobbs’s journey of profound personal transformation. Despite all of her substantial professional achievements and financial security, she realizes she is actually living a self-imposed “root-bound” life dedicated to staying small and fitting in.</p>
<p>When she learns to embrace change, rewrite her life story, release fears, be conscious of her intentions, words and actions and activate her “fun meter,” she moves in a direction of flow and ease and begins to live life “full-throttle.” Her business thrives in this prolonged recession, even while she writes “<em>Repotting Yourself</em>” full time, and she attracts an editor and publisher for the book with minimal effort.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.repottingyourself.com/index.html"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-722" title="Repotting Yourself - Mary Lou Dobbs" src="http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/book2.jpg" alt="" width="257" height="526" /></a>In turbulent times, when so many are working harder and longer – with a sense of being frustrated and “stuck” &#8211; Dobbs’s story inspires readers to discover how they can transform their own lives.</p>
<p>Mary Lou Dobbs has always been a high achiever and Number One in her chosen field of insurance sales. At Lincoln National Life, she became the only woman in the company’s 75-year history to win a national sales contest. During her eight-year tenure with Wells Fargo, the fourth largest bank and financial institution in the United States, Dobbs functioned as a master coach, working with bank presidents and managers to embrace change and then coach and mentor their own employees. When she assumed the position of senior vice president of the company’s new Insurance Department, she became the top national salesperson six consecutive years in a row.</p>
<p>The innovations she introduced to transform what she calls “a stodgy bank culture” included building and reinforcing employee self-esteem through coaching sessions, goal setting, praise and power phrases &#8212; which successfully transitioned bankers into a dynamic sales culture.</p>
<p>Before writing “<em>Repotting Yourself</em>…” this outstanding professional, keynote speaker, coach, seminar leader and owner of the Albuquerque, NM-based firm, Executive Benefit Strategies penned “<em>The Cinderella Salesman</em>” (Farnsworth: Rockville Centre, NY, 1982).  Endorsed by Og Mandino, and with a forward by the then president of Lincoln Financial, Ean M. Rowland, it was a pioneering guide to building a career in sales.</p>

<p>I am thrilled and honored to have learned about Thought Field Therapy. The TFT teleclass is one of the best training experiences and investments I have ever made.</p>
<p>The teleclass provided fantastic insight and guidance into the TFT algorithms and usage. I highly recommend everyone learn TFT and put it too good use. TFT can do wonders for you. Now, perhaps you are wondering why I am so excited about Thought Field Therapy. I hope that after reading about my situation and the help TFT has given me, you too will give it a try.</p>
<p>In January 2005 I went sledding down my street. Part way down the steep hill the snow become solid ice. I was unable to steer or stop and slid head first into the bumper of a parked mini-van. I suffered such a bad head injury that I barely made it to the hospital alive. If it took 20 minutes longer, it would have been too late. I was put into a medical coma for 10 days and have a two month period that I do not remember anything from.</p>
<p>With great medical care, support from my family, and post-hospital rehabilitation I finally returned to full time work after 8 months. I am nearly fully recovered other than I had lost 100% of my sense of smell. Medical professionals told me that the loss of smell is not an unusual occurrence after the type of brain injury I had. I was informed that I would never recover my sense of smell.</p>
<p>For five years, it was correct. I did not smell anything. However, in January 2010 I took the TFT teleclass and was given a customized Thought Field Therapy algorithm, from Dr. Roger Callahan,  to regain my sense of smell. It is amazing the capability Roger has developed with TFT and Voice Technology. I have used the algorithm (((a, mf, tf, e, g50, eb) 9g) sq) at least 15 times a day for 40 consecutive days (20+ times for 35 of those 40 days).</p>
<p>After the 30th day, I was startled and pleasantly surprised to notice the air all of a sudden seemed different as walked down the indoor hallway near the building cafeteria. It took me a bit to realize I was actually smelling something again. After 5 years, I had sort of forgotten what that was like. In the days since then I have had other occasional instances of smelling things. My sense of smell is not yet 100% back, but I am thrilled to have what I was told could never happen actually occur. TFT has made this possible.</p>
<p>Roger originally explained I would need to follow this 15+ times a day regimen for many weeks. It  only takes a minute to execute the algorithm and it can be anytime throughout the day. I gladly and enthusiastically continue applying TFT to further regain my sense of smell. This is much better than five years of thinking I would never smell again. Use TFT it really works. In addition to this more extensive usage, I have also used different TFT algorithms to alleviate other worries and anxieties.</p>
