We have all heard of the many thousands of trauma victims around the world who have been helped with TFT from all types of traumatic events, the aftermath of wars, natural disasters, and man-made events. (From Trauma to Peace). But we often forget the profound healing effect we can have on our best friends in the animal kingdom.

One of our long-time TFT practitioners shared this trauma relief story. I wanted to share it with our entire community because so often, the animals of disasters get left behind. It is important to share our simple and safe tools with our beloved pets and animal friends as well. Thank you Rudy for sharing this with us. It certainly brings love and a smile to my face.

This amazingly strong dog was one of 25 I had the great pleasure to work on and help post-hurricane Michael in Florida. These dogs had been “surrendered” which is the polite way of saying abandoned by their owners who fled the disaster. I worked with the whole crew of them and this one pictured [I call him Michael] was as strong as a train at full speed. He was out of control with anxiety and coupled with his strength he was a risk to the staff, handlers, vet and myself.

I had to get him settled enough to do some bodywork on him to release the Traumatic imprint which was fresh in the entire refuge. I was there within days of the hurricane.

Tapping to the rescue!

From strong wild beast to engaged and cooperative with 3 rounds of: eb – e – a – cb.

Truly a FAST and amazing way to get him focused and more compliant. His strength became an asset and no longer a threat. I taught the staff and handers this sequence to apply for him and the 24 other big fellas abandoned…they shared a large tent where they were kenneled. So the repetition and reinforcement, I believe, also helped the pack/group dynamic of what they had all gone through together.

Thanks Joanne for helping us bring this fast & fabulous work into the world!

Much love,

This week’s video in our series “The Power Tools of TFT” talks about the heart and creativity of TFT, the “causal diagnostic” protocol, the process from which all of TFT was developed.

Watch below to discover the way these power tools were developed and how we can now use this same diagnostic process, with specificity, in the meridians, chakras, and dan tian systems.

This diagnostic process empowers us to access our higher self and subtle dimensions, helping us to heal traumas from past lives and our ancestors.

As I shared with you in the first five videos in this series, there are some power tools in TFT, that we can all use, no matter what healing modality we are currently using.

In this series you will gain a deeper understanding of the development of these tools along with a glimpse into the broad clinical applications for their use. You will see how these tools can be used to dramatically improve the quality of life for those struggling with chronic problems, promote the body’s natural healing process and reduce suffering from trauma and other daily stresses.

Enjoy these videos and gain an understanding of where tapping came from and how it was developed. Please feel free to share them with anyone interested in tapping and helping themselves or others.

Yours in well-being,

This week’s video in our series “The Power Tools of TFT” talks about how we can find the toxins in our life and neutralize them.

We are well into Spring now and allergies are on the rise.  There are multiple new medications with adverse reactions and new studies are showing us the extent of toxins in our environment.  One organization just reported:

“New round of tests find more children’s cereals tainted with
Monsanto’s cancer-linked weedkiller.”

Watch the fifth video, describing the tools available in TFT to mitigate our toxic environment and maintain health.

TFT, the original source of ‘tapping’, has tools that can help us identify toxins in our environment and how to neutralizae them, including eliminating the side-effects of necessary medications.  I know from personal experience how much this can contribute to our quality of life. In our next Power Tools of TFT video, I share my personal story and how TFT can help you deal with our toxic environment and still remain healthy.

As I shared with you in the first four videos in this series, there are some power tools in TFT, that we can all use, no matter what healing modality we are currently using.

Watch for next week’s video where you will learn about the core of TFT, the causal diagnostic system. It is the basis of all of the TFT protocols.

How is your year going?  Are you achieving all of your desires, or, are you coming up short in life? TFT, the original source of ‘tapping’, has tools that can help remove the blocks to success, align ourselves to our goals, begin our healing process, and help us to live a more fulfilled life.

As I shared with you in the first three weeks, there are some power tools in TFT, that we can all use, no matter what healing modality we are currently using. This week’s video in our series “The Power Tools of TFT” teaches us how and when to use the ‘9 gamut’ protocol to assist in fine tuning our focus and creating balance, reaching even better results as we strive to maintain peace within today’s chaotic unpredictable world.

This brief, procedure is actually a set or group of 9 treatments that Dr. Callahan developed early on in TFT’s development.  I will share this brief history with you as well as teach you applications for your life now.

The 9 gamut can be easily integrated into or added to any current energy modality or healing practice, and is free, brief, and provides you with an explanation and detailed instructions for use, whether you are a practitioner or an individual who just wants to help themselves.

Please watch the fourth video, describing what the ‘9 gamut’ is and how it was developed over 30 years ago.

Watch for next week’s video where you will learn about the core of TFT, the causal diagnostic system.  It is the basis of all of the TFT protocols.

Just stop for a minute and think about the difference we can make in children’s lives if we can quickly tap away their fears and traumas, as they occur.  Fear is a negative, contractive state which attracts more of the same.  Many suffer from this state every day and the number is increasing substantially.

They are growing up in unprecedented and frightening times. Global stress is at an all-time high: health pandemic, racism, masks, social distancing, financial insecurity, political tension… The news reminds all of us, including our children, of what we should fear every time we turn on the TV or internet.  There are so many things for them to be upset about, all painting a very scary picture for our children.

But, if we daily tap away the fear, they can feel safe.  They can go to school or out to events without fears such as speaking to adults or peers, they are free to enjoy, engage and expand, more fully reaching their potential.

I wanted to share what two of our TFT Trainers and practitioners recently shared with me.  Both are amazing, simple examples of how we can improve the lives of our children and tap away their fears.

Hello again Joanne

I wanted to share with you a lovely story.

On the weekend we went for a walk with My husband my 5-year-old and myself.  We were walking on some rocks on the beach and my son was just in front of us and all of a sudden he screamed with terror, in that quick moment we saw a brown snake slide over his foot and slithered away under the rocks.   He almost flew off the rocks he jumped so high and fast and was hysterical.

I immediately jumped off and I started tapping him immediately EB E A C.  Within a few seconds he was smiling and happy. In fact, he felt quite brave and proud of himself for his encounter and was excited to tell his big sister about it when we got home.

When we go home a couple of hours later we had strangely all forgotten about the incident.  About 5 hours later I remembered that we forgot to share the story with our Daughter and I said “Edson you forgot to tell Desiree what happened to you today”  he looked at me puzzled?  and I said remember? and made an action with my hand of a snake…he still did not remember then I said Snake and he said oh yes and proceeded to tell his sister as a matter of fact like it was no big deal.

It was quite amazing to watch.  I am forever grateful that as a parent I have these tools literally at my fingertips to use whenever I need them.

This next case was sent to me by Marcia Tillman BSc (Hons)

I am a student from one of Roger Callahan’s “Thought Field Therapy – Algorithm Level” courses taught by Marcia Tillman.  This was supposed to be a face to face classroom course but due to covid it was taught online.  I was a bit skeptical initially, on how such a course could be transferred online, but it worked amazingly.    With Zoom’s technology, with the Breakout rooms, it worked a dream.  There was a lovely mix of theory, practice sessions with energizers thrown in the mix.  Thank you Marcia for a lovely way to be taught.  

I am a Kinesiologist and trained in Touch for Health and Brain Gym and I came on the course to add a new tool to my tool box.  I didn’t know what to expect and was very open-minded.  I came away from the course delighted to have a fantastic additional tool to add to my tool box.   Thought Field Therapy is absolutely amazing and is very simple to follow.  It is really good for people who have phobias, shyness, social anxiety, emotional issues……the list goes on.   As part of the course I had to do some case studies.  I would like to share one of them.  

One of my case studies was on my daughter who is very shy talking to adults she doesn’t know very well (e.g teachers, hairdressers etc.).  My daughter had a hair appointment and I couldn’t take her, due to a diary clash, so she had to go alone.  She is 16.   She was really nervous about going, so I asked her if she wanted to do some Thought Field Therapy around her social anxiety around unfamiliar adults.  She agreed.  So we spent no more than 15 minutes doing the Thought Field Therapy algorithm sequence, the day before her appointment.  

The next day, when I returned from my meeting, my daughter ran up to me and gave me the biggest hug!  She shouted “I did it!  I did it!  I wasn’t nervous going to the hairdressers and I really enjoyed chatting to my hairdresser!  Thank you so much mum!”  I was so pleased for my daughter and so impressed with the power of Thought Field Therapy, as this social anxiety issue (with unfamiliar adults) has been a problem for many years.  This problem has completely gone away for my daughter and her confidence has grown with it.  

I would highly recommend Thought Field Therapy Algorithm training.   It is useful as a parent, as a teacher, as a therapist or any other professional.    It is quick, simple to follow, and most importantly, instantly effective.   Thank you Marcia!

We can all learn these simple tools from either live events at the algorithm level with our trainers.  Both Rosanna and Marcia offer live courses:  Click here for details

Or, online with our Algorithm Certification course:  

The recent bombing in Beirut left many dead, injured, and traumatized.  The after-effects of this kind of event can be far-reaching and long-lasting.  Sharing TFT’s trauma relief tapping sequences can begin the healing process and dramatically improve the quality of life of all those affected.

Our TFT Algorithm and Diagnostic level trainer, Abeer AlOsaimi, from her healing center, Nafas Center, in Kuwait has done just that, begun the healing process for so many.  They provided TFT algorithm trainings for nearly 800 Lebanese professionals in conjunction with the Organized Psychological Support Campaign “Nehna Haddak” in Lebanon.   These professionals are in turn starting to heal their communities.

I am amazed at the case studies being submitted for their certification process.  They are helping fear, anger, panic, PTSD from the bombing for so many victims.  Some of the victims are still in the hospital, others are living in the community, without homes or family.

Below is an example of the difference the simple TFT trauma algorithm can make in the lives of those who have suffered trauma.  Mireille Youssef, Clinical psychologist, gave me permission to share her cases.  We sincerely hope that this will help inspire others to share these healing tools.

The blocking of the healing process can be caused by simple things that we all have around the house.  Something as simple as laundry detergent or cleaning products.

I know this from personal experience.  In 2001 I was diagnosed with Stage IV Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (NHL).  I have been cancer free since March of 2003, with no recurrence in that time.  I did no chemo or radiation or surgery.

One of the most important things Roger and I learned while treating me was the possible role of toxins and how their presence can not only block healing but aggravate the disease state.  We found that when the cancer tumors had a positive polarity (based on the work of Harold Saxton Burr, Blueprint for Immortality) the tumors would grow but when we could keep them in negative polarity they would shrink and die.  We could measure this polarity with a simple voltmeter, which confirmed what we could identify with TFT Voice Technology testing.

We all have an excellent opportunity to grow, learn, and evolve in these challenging times.  People are spending a lot more time in front of their screens. But is it productive time?  Once they’re done binging on Netflix and what is in their refrigerator, what happens next?  Is procrastination getting in the way of your success?

Right now many of us have the perfect opportunity to learn that new skill, start a new hobby, plan our own business, become that creative artist we always knew was within us.

But, we are in a pandemic and a lot of people are trapped within the negative energy of fear, trauma, anger, frustration – they are suffering in many different ways.

TFT has an exceptional set of tools that we can use to help us move forward in a positive manner and even thrive under the current limitations.

I created three YouTube videos with free tapping sequences to release the trapped negative emotions and support our immune health.  You can see them here.

This weekend I will be leading a live, interactive webinar on how to deal with the traumatic aspects of our current world situation.  You can join me here.

Below I am sharing a simple case study from one of our new algorithm level practitioners about how she helped her friend eliminate her procrastination and become the painter she really was.  She shares the common tapping sequences, algorithms, she used.

Case Study:

Female Aged 47 years: Procrastination getting in the way of success.

My second case study involved a friend who had talked about how frustrated she was with herself for procrastinating. She is a painter on top of her day job and often takes on commissions for people.

Recently my friend was feeling like she wasn’t finishing any of her paintings, and sometimes she would do anything to avoid painting. She felt frustrated, and this was beginning to get her down because she kept putting off painting, something she previously loved doing.

I began by asking my friend to describe what happens when she decides to paint, she explained that she would find other things to do and avoid painting. She described feeling shame and guilt, and this was making her feel low. I asked her how this felt in her body when she thought about this, and she described having a ‘fuzzy head’ and ‘a sickness feeling in her stomach’.

I suggested we begin getting rid of all the blocks to her getting her painting done. I started by asking her if she could visualize herself getting her paintings finished, which she could so I felt confident this would help. I asked my friend to visualize herself successfully painting while imagining removing all the blocks to this. We then tapped the 5 PRS : Side of hand, under nose, under chin, middle finger, outside eye. Partway through the tapping I asked her to focus on the affirmation ‘I am successfully finishing my paintings’.

I then chose the following algorithm of procrastination and also included shame and guilt, as she had talked about these two feelings when she thought of how procrastinating made her feel. I asked my friend to focus on her reluctance to finish her paintings and hold this in mind while we tapped. I asked her to provide a SUD score based on how she felt now when she thought of procrastinating. She gave me a score of 9. We then tapped the following:

e , a , c, + ch + if , c 9G       e , a , c, + ch + if , c

I asked my friend how she felt after this, she still felt the frustration of procrastination but less so, she gave me the SUD score of 5. I then decided to do the first PR (tapping the side of the hand for 20 seconds) we then repeated the algorithm above, and I reminded her to focus on the reluctant feeling to finish her paintings.

I again asked her to rate the feeling and describe how she felt in her body. She felt much more relaxed, and her stomach felt settled and her head less fuzzy. She gave me a SUD of 2. I thought about stopping at this point since we had brought the score down significantly, however, I felt it would be worth trying the next psychological reversal to see if we could lower her score more and rid of her all the fuzziness in her head, we therefore tapped collarbone breathing, and repeated the above algorithm again.

After this I asked again how she felt, this time she couldn’t give me a score as she felt relaxed in her body and thoughts, and positive about painting again. We therefore finished with the Floor to Ceiling eye roll. During this she repeated an affirmation about finishing her paintings successfully.

I suggested my friend continue with the 5PRs at home a few times a day, focusing on letting go of all blocks to painting and using a positive affirmation of successfully finishing her paintings. I also suggested she use the above algorithm to practice at home regularly or when she felt she was beginning to procrastinate.

The next day my friend emailed me a painting she had finished. She had practiced both tapping practices in the morning, and then gone on to finish one of her paintings later in the day. She said she felt focussed again and was determined to give herself the space to paint and would carry on using the tapping to help her move forwards with her painting.

Author and Journalist Lynne McTaggart, who mentioned TFT in the Living Matrix, has an excellent publication, WDDTY, What Doctor’s Don’t Tell You. I have received their emails for many years and often find very relevant information to our practice of TFT and healing.

Below is one such article:

Schoolchildren suffering memory problems from using their cellphones

Teenagers are always using their cell (mobile) phones—but the radiation from the devices could be affecting their memory and their ability to study at school, a major new study has suggested.

Memory problems are being seen in adolescents after they’ve been using a cell phone for just a year, say researchers from the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute.

Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from the phones affect a non-verbal type of memory known as figural, which is located more on the right-side of the brain.

Right-handed adolescents who frequently use the phones to make calls are the most likely to be affected, while those who just use the devices for texting and posting on social media suffer only a ‘marginal’ deterioration of memory.

The researchers studied a group of 700 adolescents, aged between 12 and 17 years, and measured their memory performance and cell phone usage, which they worked out from data supplied by phone operators.

The research suggests “that indeed RF-EMF (radiofrequency electromagnetic field) absorbed by the brain is responsible for the observed associations (of figural memory performance)”, said Martin Roosil, the lead researcher of the Hermes (Health Effects Related to Mobile Phone Use) study group.

The conclusion confirms the findings of a larger research study in 2015, which involved around 1400 adolescents, that also thought there was a connection between EMFs and memory problems.

Although we’re exposed to much higher levels of EMFs in our environment these days—such as from mobile phone masts and wi-fi—it’s the radiation from cell phones that can have the most direct impact, especially on a developing brain, the researchers say.

The study is peer-reviewed, which means its methods and workings have been checked by independent researchers before it has been accepted for publication.
