			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you may know, we give away a <a href="http://www.RogerCallahan.com">free TFT Stress Guide</a> - <strong>in fact the guide is downloaded over 50 times per day.</strong></p>
<p>Everyone that gets the guide is asked to let us know how tapping therapy has worked for them. We do this for a few reasons. First is to make sure that we are providing instructions that are easy to follow, as second is that we like to hear from all of the TFT family.</p>
<p>Over the course of this year we have received over 1,000 surveys from our TFT readers, and we'd like to share some of the surprising results.</p>
<h3>Here is a sampling of the results people are getting with Thought Field Therapy®... from just the past 2 weeks.</h3>
<blockquote><p>Feel better about myself. Didn't realize that the trauma of my mothers sudden death in front of me when I was 3 yrs old had affected me for the next 55 years.</p></blockquote>
<p><em>I PURCHASED YOUR BOOK, TAPPING THE HEALER WITHIN, AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP SMOKING AFTER JUST ONE SESSION.</em></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Instant relief, and calm. Simply amazing!</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p>After I performed the tapping technique i absolutely forgot about the stress I was dealing with. I just couldn't stop laughing!</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I applied just the bare beginning meaning finding out what to tap and in what sequence and I right away experienced a positive turn - especially the Reversal taps!  Amazing!</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Before I went to work I glanced at the website and implemented the steps and it became a very useful tool.  I started implementing the steps when I found myself in lots of traffic on my way to work. I am so glad that I knew what to do. Thank you.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I feel calmer, I have been tapping everyday for the past three days, everytime I think of it. Helps to put myself in better space, would like to have it specific to my personal needs, think the results will be phenomenal.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Felt better after tapping. Routine a bit different to the EFT I'm accustomed to, but I find TFT more credible. Probably because this is the foundation of tapping.<span id="more-1340"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>I used TFT to relieve me of stress during my workday.  During breaks, I would tap and think about the stress leaving my body.  It helped me enormously and I was able to breather better, relax and enjoy my time at work!  Thanks for this valuable tool.  I love that I don't even need anything but my own hands to take stress away!  It worked immediately and the effects lasted a long time.  I plan to use this as often as I need to whenever necessary.  Thanks!</p></blockquote>
<p>Kevin suggested your site as one of the means of getting rid of anxieties and negativities. When I downloaded the TFT self help I read it through. The next morning I took my usual walk on my 'attitude hill' where i talk to myself and run things over in my mind and I found myself tapping whenever I found myself  On the hill this morning i found myself tapping each time i took a deep breath and feeling better and better with each thought. I plan to get as deep into TFT as i can and use it daily. Thanks for being there for me.</p>
<blockquote><p>I'm doing the collarbone breathing two or three times a day - I thought at first it was great, but I think I have a problem with trusting my own efforts - I'm also using Susan Hansen's meridian balancing video.  The two together seem to be working quite well.</p></blockquote>
<p>Another interesting experience is with my son who is 25 years old software engineer. One day we were playing badminton at 6 am when he asked me to rush back to home. When we came home he removed his T shirt. I could see red rashes like swollen lumps all over his body. He was scratching his body and in pain. We did not have any medicine so my wife went to neighbors to ask if they have any. At that early hours doctors would not have opened their dispensaries neither the medical stores. So I suggested him TFT. I did one NLP exercise with him followed by TFT. By that time my wife came with neighbors, four ladies precise. Our exercise was on. To their (and also mine) astonishment the rashes simply disappeared and itching sensation stopped. They could not believe their eyes. Since then TFT (I knew EFT then) has become integral part of my counseling."</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The guide helps me every day as I am a truck driver.</strong> The stresses of the road are now met with a smile and a friendly wave rather than the "rage" I used to dish out.</p></blockquote>
<p>I received the download and I gave it a try, the result to be honest was not as instant for me as it was for other people but while I was laying down and starting thinking about my 1 million again I actually started to feel something again I actually feel excited about it now i feel more excited about even feeling excited then the actual money. Thank you very very much I would like to know what in my way if it really was depression or maybe stress i never heard of stress or depression preventing to feel emotions. After a few rounds. My levels of anxiety dropped. I felt much calmer and relaxed.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>I feel like a big load has been lifted from my mind.I feel more positive.I feel good about the the future.I'm not sure about trust I think I can make it.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>"I usually wake up in the middle of the night and during that period I will experience a panic attack of some kind. The attack will range from mild to extreme where I'm pacing back and forth in my bedroom freaking out. Two nights ago I tried the free download. I would say it was a medium range with a knot in my stomach. I performed the anxiety release which lessened the panic but not the knot. Then performed the chest breathing and anxiety release again after. The knot was still there but was reduced and so was the anxiety.  Last night I experience a milder attack and performed the anxiety release. This calmed me down significantly. I was laying there in bed thinking and I realize just how calm and relaxed is was, this took me by surprise. Very helpful! Thank you I am surprised and grateful!!!</p>
<blockquote><p><em>"I have had many traumas in my 43 years of life and a very recent one that I couldn't get out of my head.  Each night I would lay down to sleep and relive the experience. Since practicing The Callahan TFT and collar bone breathing, I have truly not THOUGHT about my ""traumatic experience"", accepted it as something that was meant to be and forgiven myself.  I am just a beginner, but plan on learning more and more about TFT, it's simple, free and best of all - it works!  Thank you Dr. and JoAnne Callahan.  I can't wait to learn more.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I was amazed at how tft took such heavy, and emotional events and lifted it out of my physiology. I was floored that in just minutes I had achieved a level of emotional freedom that I had never experienced. Lengthy periods of other forms of treatment never really helped. I felt so stuck and lost emotionally before tft came into my life. When I began to use TFT a feel good, so that is the reason that I believe in that.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I have belonged to a networking group for 2 years, but I still get nervous when I do my presentations. <strong>After doing the Algorithm I felt more at ease</strong>. only did it once for the stress, it felt good at the time, have to try for the others and do it more often It helped me get a new focus.  One more of positive feelings.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I had a great result with a therapist a few years ago resolving a traumatic event with TFT, so I wanted to try it for weight loss. I discovered my core issue which is abandonment. (which I knew was an issue I had, but didn't realize consciously how it related to eating until doing some TFT on this issue). Since it has only been a few days, I don't have any weight loss results to report, but know I feel confident that I can work on my "core issue" and let go of trying to lose weight. Because I was just sabotaging myself anyway. I suppose it kept my mind focused on that and away from the painful core issue. Now I know that I'm so stressed out because I'm trying so hard to keep up appearances (that I was sabotaging anyway), to keep from being abandoned. That's not a very self-loving way to live. The belief is that I myself am not lovable, but if I try I can be what I think is lovable - which is a stressed out mess and not actually fun to be around. My husband fell in love with me in high school when I had no fear of being myself, now I'm so far away from that person that is stuffed deep down inside and pushed further down with food perhaps. I can't even speak in a very loud volume because everything is stuffed so deep that I'm actually choking. I really need to release all those deep, stuffed away emotions (fear, anger, sadness). Now I feel like I can consciously think about it and do TFT. Wish me luck! <img src='http://www.rogercallahan.com/news/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<blockquote><p><strong>As a Somatic Intuitive Training Practitioner I will find these useful in my work. "</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>By using the tapping, I've immediately been able to reduce the weight of axiety or any emotional distress all together.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I've only tried it a couple times &amp; my anger related to the trauma was lessened. My goal is to practice this often so that I can master it &amp; completely overcome my obstacles.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>It is difficult to avoid negative people when that energy is present in a family member (i.e. where you just cannot "walk away" from the negative/cold attitude)as one could when encountering such in non-family persons.  This seems to be a method to stop my bad emotions (anxiety, stress) to undesirable attitudes in my environment that simply cannot be avoided out of respect and love for the other person.  I realize that I control my thoughts, and thoughts control my emotions but some emotion just triggers faster than I can control.  This method appears to help after the emotions are triggered.  I'm interested in learning more and might explore the book.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I was still thinking about the past conversation and the feelings associated with that from many years ago in the past, and this method helped me to take my mind off and <strong>kind of like "changing the channel."</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>It works magically!</strong></p>
<p>I'm not sure if I'm even doing the technique correctly. The little video really helped because I'm more of a visual person. I don't have access to the computer 24/7 but last night I tried it out from what I could remember. I went to sleep and slept ALL night (usually I get up at least three times during the night). I even woke up this morning feeling good. That, in itself, is amazing because I usually sleep until after noon. So I'm just gonna keep practicing what has been offered. Thank you SO much!!!</p>
<blockquote><p><em>The tapping techniques do seem to help quite immediately...although I've only recently started utilizing them, I believe they are a big help and a simple way to naturally aid in "re-wiring" the human mind for the better. I'm glad I discovered the techniques, and thank you!</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I have less stress. Each day I complete TFT techniques your guide taught and now my stress is gradually lowering little by little which means my Fibromyalgia symptoms are less too. Getting better daily! Thank you!</p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>"Pleasant release of energies that have been causing me stress for quite a while. </strong> I am doing the work on a daily basis and feel good about what I have seen so far. I have been using these techniques for less than 2 weeks."</em></p></blockquote>
<p>For almost 14 days I have not taken the 5mg blood pressure tablets.  Generally, I relax and take a reading on my blood pressure monitor.  When a more desirable reading is my goal, then I apply the TFT techniques before the next test.  I'm very excited with my results.  On 7/17/2001 I'll visit my doctor and show her the results of my readings.  It will be interesting to hear her view on my status, especially since I am so against drug medication.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I had already been shown TFT by my therapist to help me ease stress, but mainly for each time I felt like a cigarette and <strong>The craving went away instantly.</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p>I am in a CISM training and the facilitator gave your name to look TFT up.  We tried it and it worked for me for stress, and what I found interesting was that I didn't crave a cigarette for 4 hrs, very amazing.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>I have wanted to be a Healer for decades and you have provided the tools for me to do that.  I have implemented the techniques according to your book and found it so simple, easy to use and most of all, astounded by the results in such a short space of time, just mind blowing, it feels like some kind of trickery is going on.  I have used the techniques on myself and my family, and achieved 90% success rate.  Considering I am only just beginning to use and learn about these techniques, this is nothing less than incredible. I'm so excited by the results, I am signing up for the boot camp training here in Australia in June 2011, in addition when I can afford it, I will most definitely be doing the advanced training and my ultimate goal is to undertake the VT Training.  My passion is just sizzling with excitement.  Thank you Dr Callahan for providing the world with your knowledge and wisdom, we need more people like you on our troubled planet.  Many blessing to your and your team.</em></p></blockquote>

			<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>

<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><a title="Full theater" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/41749772@N06/3857763292/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2506/3857763292_aa5b2c5535.jpg" border="0" alt="Full theater" /></a></p>
<p>Growing up, I was horribly afraid of my own shadow, strangers and public places.  As a little child, I used to hide under my bed when company came and if we went out in public, I was stuck to my mom as a third leg.  I have no clue what caused that fear and my parents can’t think of any trauma that happened to me.  They  just thought  I was a very shy child.</p>
<p>In school, <strong>I’d have myself sick worrying about having to give a speech in front of the class</strong> or sing a recital with the choir in front of the parents.  I always chose to be the person behind the scene and not the one in the spot light.   I remember my body would shake, my heart would race, my mind went to mush and I’d turn bright red in the face.  I didn’t even like to go anywhere by myself, especially if I didn’t know anyone else.  Any new environment or change would be painful for me because I’d worry myself to the point that exhaustion.</p>
<p><strong>When it came to my job or owning my own business, I knew I had to get rid of this ridiculous fear</strong>.  I tried everything I could think of like therapy, desensitizing myself by forcing myself  to go out to public  places, acupuncture, Reiki, hypnosis, self help books and tapes.  I think I tried it all.  Along the way, those things did help yet their was always a lot of anxiety attached to going out and having to speak in front of people.</p>
<p>My husband and I did marriage prep for our church and there would be times that I thought my heart would jump through my throat or I got light headed when I had to read my part.  I kept praying to God to get me through it.  Afterwards, I’d be totally exhausted as if I’d run a marathon.<span id="more-452"></span></p>
<p>I’ve been in the construction industry for 28 years and have owned my own commercial/residential interior renovation company.  Being a female in the construction industry has had its challenges yet there are many rewards as well.  This business really toughened me up.   Being in a typically “man’s” world and having to prove myself gave me the incentive to start working through my fears.  I had to be around all kinds of people and clients through the years.  I would never say it didn’t bother me, I just learned how to hide it under many masks.</p>
<p><strong>There were times I literally wanted to throw up</strong> right before having to present to a construction board or to a discussion panel on various issues.  Somehow I managed to get through it even though I was a wreck.</p>
<p>I experienced “Sick Building Syndrome” several times of the years where the toxins in buildings were so great, it put my immune system in overload and I ended up very sick.</p>
<p>Again, through many different types of conventional and non-conventional methods, I had to rebuild my health.  It became my passion to educate people about the dangers of toxins that lurk in our homes and work places.  There was just one little problem.  I couldn’t get over my fear of speaking so I turned down many opportunities to speak.</p>
<p>I mostly would talk educate on a very small scale with 2 or 3 people. Word started spreading about my work and I started getting more venues invite me to speak.</p>
<p><strong>In June of 08 I met Joanne Callahan at a mastermind summit and for the first time Thought Field Therapy was introduced to me.</strong> I remember her working on two clients using this “weird” tapping thing.  I went home and purchased the book “Tapping the Healer Within” and a whole new world opened up to me.</p>
<p><strong>I knew I had finally found a way to safely and natural way to eliminate my fears so that I could live the full life I desired.</strong></p>
<p>In January of 2009 I received a call from an architect who was putting a panel together for a presentation at the Facility Manager Convention in Baltimore.  The topic was “How Air Quality and Environmental Quality affects Employee Productivity”.</p>
<p>I was excited and honored to be asked and before I thought about it I said “Sure, I’d love to”.   Then I hung up the phone and about had a heart attack when I realized this was a national convention with thousands of people.  I had never given a speech like this before let alone at a convention with thousands of people. I was almost paralyzed in fear and ready to call her back and cancel.  I had two weeks to put the presentation together and the entire two weeks I kept using the anxiety/stress algorithm from the book.</p>
<p>The day before the presentation I was a wreck and couldn’t stop shaking and my voice was wavering and I had a migraine.  <strong>I just knew I couldn’t speak feeling like this.</strong></p>
<p>I called doctor Callahan and had a session to work on my fear of public speaking.  Over the phone through Voice Technology, Dr. Callahan created a specific series of tapping just for my immediate problem.  As I did the tapping sequence he gave to me it was amazing to feel the changes going on in my body.  The shaking started to subside, my heart started beating regularly, the red rash started to clear up just in minutes of doing the tapping.  He got me from a 10 down to a 4 in just 15 minutes.  Then, next thing I knew, I was back up to a 10 and feeling horrible.  Dr. Callahan asked what just happened.  I told him I hadn’t moved from the spot in my bedroom.  He told me something changed and asked did anyone come into the room.  I told him my son did to get some money from me.  He asked me what is he wearing.   I though the meant clothes so I started explaining that.  Dr. Callahan then asked if he was wearing any cologne or other scent on.  I said he always wears this one cologne which bothers me.  He checked and said that his cologne was so toxic to me that it through me into a reversal which brought the fear back.  Dr. Callahan had me do a breathing exercise to neutralize the toxin in my system.</p>
<p><strong>Within minutes I started feeling</strong>.  He got me back down to a 5 when my husband walked in the room and then it went back up to a 10 again.  Again, Dr. Callahan asked what just happened.  I told him my husband walked in the room.  He asked did he have cologne on.  I said no he knows not to wear anything around me since I’m so sensitive.  Dr. Callahan said he had something on that was toxic to me.  Just about then, I got his scent and realized he must have been near my son’s cologne.  That cologne was so toxic to me that the residual scent in the house was still strong enough to throw me back into a reversal.  Once again, we did the breathing exercise and went back to the tapping.  After 35 minutes, Dr. Callahan was able to help me reduce my fear from a 10 to a 1.  Dr. Callahan told me to take the tapping sequence with me to the convention and just before I went on stage, do the sequence again.   I followed his direction and just before I went on stage I snuck into the ladies room and did the tapping.</p>
<p>It was the most amazing experience.  At the last minute the room was changed to another one and the stage was set up differently than I had practiced on during lunch time.  One of my videos didn’t load properly when the IT guy set me up so it wouldn’t play so I had to just talk about it.  Then at the end, I had an Environmental Hygienist challenge me about some things I brought up in my talk.  I was in disbelief that I was able to not only hold my own in spite of the challenges, I felt empowered and great.</p>
<p>At that point, I knew that this life long crippling fear was a thing of the past and I was now set free to go out and educate people on how to build healthier lives at home and their workplace by teaching them about toxins and their affect on our bodies and how TFT is a most wonderful, safe and natural way to eliminate fears and anxieties.</p>
<p><em>Thank you Dr. Callahan for teaching me TFT and allow a whole new world to open up to me in my healing and construction journey.</em></p>

<p><strong>Izere Center in Nyinawimana Parish, Byumba Diocese in Rwanda</strong></p>
<p><em>Thought Field Therapy (TFT) was the answer to a mother who sought help for her son recently.</em></p>
<p>Her boy was unable to attend school because he had intense rages, threw and destroyed things, and went into tantrums and tirades.  He was physically robust, and his petite mother appeared overwhelmed and exhausted with his supervision and care.</p>
<p><strong>These rages were triggered whenever he didn’t want to do something, or didn’t like something, or when he did not get his way.</strong></p>
<p>The treatment algorithms for oppositionality (psychological reversal), anger, rage and trauma were demonstrated to the child and mother.</p>
<p><strong>The child was not initially cooperative, but tolerated being tapped by mother after psychological reversal was treated</strong>.  Then mother was warned that a thought field that would induce the rage might be created right then and there, to check the effectiveness of this treatment.  Mother seemed apprehensive, and she, the Rwandan therapist and ATFT team support therapist first moved out of the immediate range of his kicking and hitting.  Mother was asked to instruct the young boy to give the water bottle he was playing with to his mother, so he could do the tapping sequences.  He started going into a tantrum, and the reversal was done by the Rwandan therapist and his mother.</p>
<p><strong>Much to both their surprise,</strong> the boy’s tantrum abruptly stopped, he gave the bottle to his mother as requested, and he started tapping himself.  He calmed down and tapped on all the meridian points himself.  He was not grunting, whining, yelling, kicking, throwing things, or hitting—but smiling, and wanting to repeat the treatment.</p>
<p>Mother worked with TFT with the same algorithm for her own frustration, and reported feeling the calming response herself and the remitting of her own intense emotions.  She made an appointment for a TFT follow-up visit for herself, and for help with parenting support at the Izere Center.</p>

<p>Now that we've come to the 30 year mark of Thought Field Therapy, it's rewarding to see how Dr. Roger Callhan's tapping technique has evolved to become a major part of the alternative healing community. <strong>In fact, the word <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=tapping+Dr+Roger+Callahan&amp;btnG=Google+Search&amp;meta=&amp;aq=f&amp;oq=">"tapping" is now synonymous with Dr Roger Callahan</a></strong>.</p>
<p>A quick search for  "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_b?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&amp;field-keywords=energy+tapping&amp;x=0&amp;y=0">energy tapping for trauma"</a> on Amazon finds a wide selection of books written by <span class="ptBrand">Fred Gallo, Anthony Robbins, Gary Craig, Joseph Mercola and Ron Ball, among many others.<a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_b?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&amp;field-keywords=tapping&amp;x=0&amp;y=0"> </a></span></p>
<p><span class="ptBrand"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_b?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&amp;field-keywords=tapping&amp;x=0&amp;y=0">Search "tapping"</a> and you'll find books covering phobias, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, addictions and more.<br />
</span></p>
<p>Although the technique has been adapted by many to become their own versions (<em>EFT, or</em> <span id="main" style="visibility: visible;"><span id="search" style="visibility: visible;"><em>Emotional Freedom Techniques</em></span></span>,<em> </em><span id="main" style="visibility: visible;"><span id="search" style="visibility: visible;"><em>Meridian </em><em>Tapping Techniques... to name a few</em></span></span> <em>of the more prominent ones</em>) <strong>we take great pride in knowing that Roger's discovery has led to a whole category in alternative healing</strong>... and that a wide range of alternative healing practitioners have incorporated it into their practice.</p>

<p>Paul know a few things about fear and trauma... a horrific auto accident in 1989 left him with burns to over 80% his body - and he was pronounced dead three times.</p>
<p>Paul tells his story of how the burns affected his life and how one of our TFT practitioners,  <a href="http://www.wellwithinreach.net/" target="_blank">Chrissy Mayhew</a>,  helped him get over 20 years of his post traumatic stress:</p>

<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">A recent study done by the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, with 506 seniors (median age 82), found that those who were calm and easygoing were 50% less likely to develop dementia than those who were prone to anxiety and stress. (Hui-Xin Wang, PhD, research scientist, Aging Research Center, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden).<br />
</span><span style="font-family: Lucida Grande;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Daily use of Thought Field Therapy (TFT) can reduce anxiety, fears and stress whether related to trauma, economic fears or other life stressors.  TFT also can improve heart rate variability (HRV).<br />
</span><span style="font-family: Lucida Grande;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Not only does reducing phobic anxiety increase HRV  but it can also reduce the risk of dementia. </span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">(Kawachi, I. et al., 1995.  Decreased heart rate variability in men with phobic anxiety:  data from the Normative Aging Study.  American Journal of Cardiology, 75(14):882-885)</span></span></span><br />
