Releasing Discomfort NOW Using EFT (Tapping)

So I've been in an excruciating amount of pain for the last day, day and a half. I need to get a root canal. I had some fillings that went wrong, and my friend Rick is an amazing hypnotherapist and other things. I'll let him introduce himself, but he gave me a really simple technique to help with the pain. And I thought it would really help anyone else who had to deal with pain management and symptoms, high-level pain, because I got to tell you, me having a level 10 pain is not where I want to live. And Rick's techniques really work. So save this video, use this video if you're facing pain, a headache, neck ache, backache, whatever. Rick, help a sister out.

Okay, well, we're going to do a little of it because you're having some pain. Right now. And, uh, what I'm doing is combining Emotional Freedom Techniques, an energy psychology tool, and a rapid hypnotic technique that helps for managing discomfort. So that's the first thing we're going to do is eliminate the P word, and we're now going to call it discomfort going forward. And it's really just a lot of discomfort now. So how strong is the discomfort in you right at this moment, Theresa, where 0 is none and 10 It's throbbing like a 6 and a 7, like down, down, and then up.

6, 7.

Okay. 6, 7, 6, 7, 6, 7. Okay. So what we're going to begin doing is tapping on the side of the hand. We're tapping the acupressure points. And this is the Emotional Freedom Techniques. And as you tap here, the setup statement is, I choose to feel better. The affirmation statement is simple. Uh, even though I have this discomfort, I love and accept myself. So just repeat that 3 times. Even though—

I have this discomfort, I love and accept myself. Even though I have this discomfort, I love and accept myself. Even though I have this discomfort, I love and accept myself.

Okay. 2 fingers on the eyebrow and tap the eyebrow point and just Feel it, be with it. Let yourself feel the extent of the discomfort. Sometimes when we do this, your pain level, your discomfort level may shoot all the way to the top and beyond because you're just allowing it for a moment. And all of us tend to believe we could make the pain or discomfort worse, but the truth is If you can turn the volume up, you can turn it down as well. So it's okay that it goes up. You'll find the control switch around to the temple. Feel this discomfort. And notice how you feel about the discomfort. There may be frustration, there may be anger, there may be sadness, there may be hurt, there may be a lot of fear. And just feel those feelings too. Then come under your eye. I want you to close your— under the eye, right on that lower eye socket. And as you're tapping there, close your eyes. And what color is that discomfort right now?

Red. Hot red.

And where is that hot red in your body?

It's a sharp shooting pain in my jaw. Okay.

Sharp shooting discomfort in Your jaw. Feeling that, locating it, letting it be red. If it were a shape, what shape would it be?

A sword.

A red sword. If you were able to hold that sword, would you be able to hold it with one hand or would it take 2?

2 hands.

Okay. So I want you to imagine pulling that sword out and holding it in both of your hands. And when you get it out and in both of your hands, let me know.

Yep.

Okay, now don't do this yet, just tell me Where could you throw this that it would never harm you or anyone else ever again? You know, a sun, in the volcano, someplace where it can't just be dug up or washed ashore.

I would like to throw it into a volcano.

Okay, and then what would happen to it?

It would Burble and bubble and melt and dissipate and become something else. Okay.

Are you sure you're ready to be done with this?

Yes, yes, yes, I am.

Absolutely sure?

Absolutely sure.

Okay, so we're gonna throw this into the volcano. Before we do, do you want me to count up or down?

Down.

Fast or slow?

Slow.

Okay, I'm gonna count from 10 to 1. When I get to 1, you're gonna fly out over the volcano and drop it in.

I can fly? Okay.

Yep, and then throw it from there. If you want to use an airplane or a helicopter, you can.

No, I want to fly, Rick. I want to fly.

Okay, you ready?

Mm-hmm.

You sure that you're ready?

I am so ready.

Okay, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Fly out over the volcano. Drop it. Let it go in. Yeah, watch it. Bubble and melt and dissolve and sink into the lava and transform. Perhaps whiffs of steam rising out of it. And then when you're ready, come back to that area of the discomfort and tap under your nose and share what that's like.

Very dull.

It's—

there's no throbbing anymore. It feels like a, like a light pressure. There's no more throbbing, shooting.

Great. Now tap on your chin and there's this light pressure and just noticing it and feel more at peace, more at ease. On the collarbone and you can start tapping in The idea that I'm at peace.

At peace.

I'm at ease. I've heard the message from my body. I'm headed to take care of this. Body, I'm going to take care of you. We're going to get this all taken care of. Hang in there. There on the breastbone. It's like you've received the message. Your body's trying to tell you there's an issue here. You know what the issue is. You're going to get it all taken care of. It's Plans are en route. You don't have to feel this any longer. And then the last spot is under the arms. You just pull the rib under the arm and then let go. All right.

Oh, I can move again. I— when we started, I was very clenched up.

Uh-huh.

Oh, and I can sigh.

Yeah, 0 to 10, where's the discomfort?

Can't feel it.

Right. So if, if anyone else out there is following this and you're still having discomfort, you come back and you repeat the whole process from the beginning. And just, you know, it may be a different color, it may be a different shape, it may not be as heavy this time. Yeah, you may have to throw away a few different versions of what's there to bring the discomfort to nothing. But more often than not, it just goes the very first time. And I've had people with years of chronic pain turn it off. Now, if that weren't working at all, the next thing I do is crank the pain up. That our pain is like a speaker, and you can blow out a speaker by turning the volume too high. Same thing with the pain. Just turn it up till it goes out. Where'd it go? Now, pain and pleasure are like at the top of the clock. 12:01 is pain, 11:59 is pleasure. But like the dividing line, it— you can turn something painful into something very pleasurable with your mind, just in how you talk to yourself. About it. You— if you can turn the volume up and imagine a volume switch, you can imagine a volume switch and turn it down. You can also use a memory exercise to go, well, before I felt this way, what did it feel like? And before it felt like that, what did it feel like? And get yourself back to remembering what it felt like to not have it. Before you know it, it's gone. So all 3 of those, but this is the fastest and quickest, right to the point.

I hope that any of you watching enjoyed this. Rick, you are such a blessing. Thank you. I do feel so much better. Um, and thank you for sharing your gifts with the world and with me.

You're welcome. Blessings.
