because allergies can seriously block weight loss, dr. sandra radomski’s information on how to use eft for allergy-like reactions is especially important. she is a leading specialist in substance sensitivities. if you have been following the program in this e - book and sticking to your diet, but are not yet losing weight, you may be suffering from undetected food sensitivities. sensitivities or allergy-like reactions to foods and other substances can seriously sabotage even the most diligent dieter. if you have this type of reaction to a food you are taking, dr. radomski points out that your body identifies that food as a "poison." in order to protect itself against the perceived poison, your body will instinctively hold on to water weight in an attempt to dilute the impact of the poison. allergy-like reactions to even healthy foods such as oranges, wheat, chicken or soy can keep you from your weight loss goals just as effectively as can junk foods. eft is an extremely effective way to reprogram your body to no longer react negatively to these foods. after applying eft to a difficulty you have with a certain food, your body can now allow you to lose the water weight and reach your goals.

here are dr. radomski’s instructional materials in this area: how to use eft for allergies (workshop) (on dvd or cds)

dr. sandra radomski has created an excellent workshop on videos (now on dvd) that guides you in the use of eft for allergy-like reactions. in it she gives an extraordinarily detailed and fascinating presentation of this subject that includes absorbing accounts as well as demos of people who have overcome it using the new energy psychology

techniques -- and she tells you exactly what to do about these problems using eft. this workshop is a "must" if you are having problems losing weight despite having carefully followed your diet. sandi also has two excellent manuals that supplement these videos.

about the authors

more than 33 papers in use of eft for weight loss are in high demand in

medical school at the university of wisconsin for 8 years and

conducted biofeedback with pain patients there for 10 years, among other medical activities.

her work with eft and weight loss is attracting widespread interest because of its innovativeness and striking effectiveness.

one of the ways to get the most benefit from your eft weight loss program is to use daily eft reminder cards. we highly recommend them! to find out how to make such cards, see appendix b.

here's how to make and use your reminder cards:

1.buy some 3" by 5" index cards. we find that blue cards are especially useful because the color suggests relaxation and it makes your eft cards look different from ordinary cards, but any regular index cards will do.

2.write, each on a separate card, the eft statements that you have found to be particularly useful for you so far. be sure to put only one statement on each card. new statements can be added to the pile and old ones discarded as their goals are realized.

3.each day read over your cards out loud to yourself twice a day (at a minimum) -- when first waking in the morning, and before going to sleep at night.

4.you can carry the cards with you if you like and read these eft

statements when you find yourself with spare moments during the day -- such as in the car waiting for a traffic light to change, etc. some people even record their eft statements and listen to them on tape while they drive!

5.don't think too much about what has been written on the cards at other times of the day, just read aloud each statement once, and then let it slip out of your mind to enter your subconscious mind, which will do the work for you (which is in fact exactly what happens).

using eft cards can be a great help to your eft weight loss program, serving to clarify and reinforce your positive goals. we highly recommend them.

as p e c t s i n e f t

you may be wondering whether reaching a "0" or "1" while just thinking about a problem will hold up when you are confronted with the same problem in real life. it usually will because in most cases, the chemical and neuronal reactions that occur in your brain while thinking about a situation are the same as those that occur when you're in the actual situation. that's why balancing your emotions with eft while imagining a certain circumstance, tends to hold up when you confront that circumstance in real life.

the exception to this is when some new aspect of the problem comes up in the real situation that wasn't there when you were just thinking about it. for example, suppose you tend to overeat at parties when you feel socially uncomfortable, and that by using eft you brought your discomfort level when you think about parties down to "0" or "1 ," but when you arrive at the next party you discover that your level is now a "5." this alerts you to the fact that some other new aspect of the problem that you hadn't handled when

originally tapping has now surfaced.

you may, for example, find that you are afraid to offend your hostess by not eating her "special dessert" and that this is wreaking havoc with your sensible eating. you hadn't realized that pleasing hostesses (or hosts) was such a problem for you! now you know, and the thing to do is to go back to doing your eft exercise when you get home, but now tap on an eft statement such as, "even though i don't want to disappoint my hostess (or host) by not eating their favorite dishes, i choose to handle the situation diplomatically so that no-one is offended." it will probably do the trick. at the next party, you will find yourself in control of the food you select without experiencing any guilt about disappointing your hostess.

occasionally you will identify an aspect that is not included in one of the eft exercises in this book, in which case you will need to make up your own personal eft statement to deal with it. you can do this by typing in your own wording in the negative and positive phrase boxes on the screen (you can locate these boxes in any exercise). if you do so, however, realize that formulating effective eft statements is a skill that must be learned— there are many ways to make them more effective. the resource section of this book tells how you can learn develop this skill to a fine art.

reminder: unexpected aspects that arise do not mean that eft didn't work. they simply mean there is more work to do.

another time when aspects may be an important factor is when you find yourself stuck at a certain intensity level when doing an eft exercise. for example, after doing several rounds of eft for the same issue, you might discover that your intensity level is no longer going down. this strongly suggests that there is a hidden aspect of this problem that you now need to address.

as soon as you identify this new aspect (by noticing the thoughts that are going through your mind about the problem at that moment) use eft for it. once the new aspect has been taken care of, your intensity level for the original issue will start to move again - or it may just automatically plummet to a "0" when the aspect has been dealt with.

the notion of aspects is important in eft. as in the overeating-at-parties example, some problems have many pieces to the puzzle…or aspects…to them and the problem will not be completely relieved until all of them are addressed. actually, each of these aspects qualifies as a separate problem even though they seem to be lumped together. a fear of meeting new people at parties, for example, and a fear of disappointing your host or hostess by not eating their favorite dessert, could easily be lumped together, but in fact, they are separate problems and need to be addressed separately by eft.

different aspects are possible with just about any problem you want to address with eft. sometimes they take the form of a series of traumatic memories, such as childhood abuse memories or a series of memories about an accident or traumatic incident. each memory may represent a separate problem, or aspect that needs to be addressed individually before complete relief is obtained.

please understand that where several aspects of an emotional problem are

present, you may not notice any relief until all aspects are reduced to "0" by applying eft.

this becomes very clear when you compare it to its counterpart in physical healing. if, for example, you are experiencing a headache, toothache and stomachache at the same time, you will not feel healthy until all three are gone. the pain may seem to shift but it is, nonetheless, still pain. so it is with emotional issues that contain different aspects. until all aspects are gone you may not feel relief even though you have taken care of one or
