May 21, 2011: EFT

Hola, All! Yesterday I was talking to my friend, Edna, about how we enjoy what we are doing in our lives, but really want to learn more about what we feel God is revealing to us. Most of my life, I haven't had a deep passion for anything outside of my kids. I prided myself on being the middle of the road kind of person, not too far to the left and not too far to the right. I enjoyed doing alot of things like reading, playing racquetball, etc, but nothing really put me over the edge. I watched my husband Ed as he would become interested in something, jump in with both feet, learn all he could about it, go full steam ahead, but I never really understood that kind of passion. The older I get the more I want to experience that kind of all consuming passion, where I am filled with such joy that I want to burst out singing at the top of my lungs! I want to know that what I am doing matters, that I am helping people live better lives, that I am fulfilling my life's work. Only, it won't feel like work, it'll feel like play. That's the 'pie in the sky' that I am looking for. And, I know that it's just around the corner!
Recently I have become interested in EFT, Emotional Freedom Therapy. This is a process whereby a person can learn how to release things like anxiety, fear, pain, excess weight, without the use of any drugs. The basic process is easy to learn and can be done anytime one starts to feel anything that upsets one's peacefulness. It also can be taught to children. This would be especially helpful to those children who have excess energy, who have been labeled as ADD, or ADHD, whose parents didn't know what else to do except put them on medication.
In June I am going to Guatemala for a mission trip, but I am leaving a few days early to attend a holistic center where EFT is taught. Of course, EFT is taught in the US but since I was going to be in Guatemala anyway, I figured I would learn something while I was there. When I return I plan to teach this process to as many people as are open to learning it, with the objective of eventually starting a business. I think that this is right up my alley; wish me luck!
Follow your passions!
