Emotional clearing tools?

Question

There is a lot of talk about EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), but I'm researching for something that is more practical. Does anyone out there have some ideas on emotional clearing?

Cheers

Answer 1

A lot of different approaches have theories on emotional clearing.



Gestalt Therapy - a very effective talk therapy that gets into why we think what we think about different things.



Rosen Bodywork - gentle touch that brings awareness of what the triggers are for different emotions.



Trager - Gentle rocking into relaxation



Polarity Therapy - a type of energy work that can bring up and release emotional issues, better trained than many other therapies if they hold the RPP or RPT title



Reiki - does get into mental/emotional clearing through energy work



Craniosacral Therapy - another type of energy work that can bring up and release emotional issues, can also involve a high degree of training.



Connective Tissue/Myofascial/Rolfing/Structural Integration - deep tissue massage of the fascia and connective tissues of the body using techniques developed by Dr. Ida Rolf, the original person who said that "the issues are in the tissues". Can bring an awareness of the emotional states held in those tissues through high awareness and deep, therapeutic massage.



EFT - another newer method of getting into emotional clearing.



Notably, there are literally hundreds of bodywork and psychotherapy approaches that I could list here. I have had great results with all of these, however the real key seems to be the interaction between therapist (or bodyworker) and client. I don't remember the source of the quote, but it has been said that "The right therapist with the imperfect technique may get great results; the wrong therapist with the perfect technique will accomplish nothing at all."



My experience has shown this. If I am in the right mindset the client receives a great session and perhaps experiences an emotional release. If not, hopefully they at least get a good massage.

EFT is easy and simple. If you find this hard then I don't think you will find anything else easier except going to the doctor a swallowing a pill, and get poisoned? I have tried EFT.and it mostly works. Sometime straight away. I used it to stop me biting my fingernails. For more deep seated things that have been going on deep down inside for years and years it take some time and persistence. I honestly think this is the best thing to come the way of the human race. It is a wonderful tool that you can take with you everywhere and try it on every problem. Re think about it. I don't know why you dint think EFT is practical. Do you think popping pills is more practical? Have a study of EFT if you havent already Google Garry Craig. PS I'm ust a simple person in Aust down under . This is not a push for EFT in any way but I am genuine in my belief. Good Luck

There is not one method proved to work for any one person-We all heal differently on the inside and out-When i was younger i went through alot of emotional issues and I found that writeing them down helped me later in life.When writeing them down it didnt help but later when i tried to solve my struggle i re-read what i had writen and with time passed -those words made sence and i could grow beyond those times.

I know this may come as a drag to but unless you have a laps in your memory you will always remember the problems you had -However its the way you interprit those issues that makes you stronger.So do not dwell on the hard times tell yourself ive made it this far i can do anything.An with those thoughts you truely can do anything
