Here is a report on how a ninety-minute session with Ted (not his real name) worked with EFT to overcome the strong guilt feelings that had been plaguing him. Approximately 10 months previously Ted had been accused by a former employee of sexual harassment in the workplace, although the matter never came to anything,he felt his reputation had been besmirched by the charges. Moreover he felt sad and guilty about the situation. Although he wanted to start a deep and close intimate relationship as he felt lonely; he had been feeling uncomfortable about going out and meeting women He believed his reputation would simply invite rejection. EFT had done a good job in quashing his disempowering beliefs around the issue and when the session was about to reach a successful conclusion, he turned and told the consultant how he suffered from tinnitus. Actually he had been suffering from what he described as "a whistling in the years" for the past ten years. This disclosure was a surprise! Working largely in an environment where people come to fast and de-tox on specific programs that average approximately one week in duration time, therefore, is very much of the essence. Usually it is not possible to tell clients "to come back next week" because by that time they will most likely have returned home; generally situated many thousands of miles away.

Ted said the degree of intensity for this tinnitus worked out at about 7 out of 10, and mentioned the whistling was generally worse in the right ear. Time was rapidly running out but it was decided to give him another 15 minutes to resolve the issue. If there was no result in that time, we would just have to let it go and suggest he go to see a suitably qualified EFT practitioner when he returned to his native country.

It started with a very straightforward set-up; "Although I have this whistling in my ears. I accept and approve of myself." The reminder phrase was "whistling in the ears". By this time Ted was familiar with the EFT tapping points so he was encouraged to tap on himself whilst the therapist tapped along with him. When we reached the Collar Bone point he was asked "What does this whistling remind you of?" He paused for a moment and replied "the break-up of my marriage!" Next, a second round of EFT was initiated using the EFT short cut process and we asked him how long ago the marriage had broken up? He said they had separated eleven years previously. As the tapping continued, he was asked "how did the whistling in the ears remind him of his marriage break-up?" Again he pondered, so it was decided to go onto the hand points. He started to explain, as he tapped the finger points that at the time he had been very pre-occupied with his business and felt he had started to let his home life drift. His wife began complaining about his pre-occupation with work, but he ignored her, feeling that the business difficulties would soon be resolved and they could return to how things were before. On this occasion the SUDs were taken again as we finished tapping on the little finger. He said he came up with a 4 for the right ear and a 3 for the left. On enquiring how he felt about the situation as he looked back from now. He admitted feeling "sad" and "guilty". He felt he had thrown away a relationship and he regretted that because now he was all alone. With the new aspects, came a new set-up and a new SUDs. The set-up was "Even though I feel sad and guilty about what happened I am now open to new possibilities because I deserve to be happy." The SUDs had meanwhile increased to a 6. As tapping began on the face points he seemed to become visibly upset, which suggested the SUDs had gone even higher. He was urged to repeat the reminder phrase "sad", that is until reaching the Under Arm point. Here he sighed and visibly relaxed. However, he was encouraged to move on to the UB point. This marks the end of the liver meridian.

This seemed a good place to stop. His SUDs level and the noise had completely disappeared in the left ear and was a lowly 1 in the right. This was astounding, as it didn't really seem possible to have been able to make such inroads into the problem in only 15 minutes. In my experience tinnitus can be difficult to treat and can eat into several sessions without resolution. However, there appeared to be a definite connection between the tinnitus, the more distant marriage break-up and the more recent sexual harassment accusation. There was insufficient time to explore this connection.

Ted stayed at the Resort for another couple of days. He did not return for a further session but when asked "how's the whistling? He retorted reassuredly," completely gone!" This goes to show what a powerful tool there is in EFT! In our experience it has straightened fingers, fixed numerous backs, removed the fear of heights, seen stubborn necks stop hurting and headaches vanish, all in matter of minutes. Thanks so much EFT!
