Re: New to This, Guidance Please!! You need Uniquity

Hi again, This forum is based on the works of some great herbalists and healers, such as John R. Christopher, Richard Schulz, Gerson, and so forth, of which Uniquity is the newer generation of that combined 'lineage', as you will quickly begin to appreciate.

(Though she’s no spring chicken, she’s among the young at heart.) I won't repeat all the history, since it's been given better by others. (And there's tons of good posts to read on this site, as foundational reading, that you will likely be given links to. It’s very important that you ‘get on board’ with the concepts and processes this forum espouses, in order to really gain the healing you’re looking for. It doesn't work for people to have one foot in the medical model and one out...as I'm sure you know. )

Here, much of what's done, is undoing the kind of damage drugs and surgeries have done.

Bowel *management, in the best sense of *that word, is central to the whole of Natural Healing, which also espouses nothing in exclusion, or isolation, as in something that has "side-effects" or is about merely suppressing symptoms, or 'relieving' them; it's about everything that is natural and supportive of the WHOLE being, and most importantly, doing that thing most MDs ( and many "patients") have forgotten, or betrayed themselves over -- The old OATH that goes back to eons ago: "first, do no harm".

Can you imagine what the world would be like if doctors really took that oath to heart? Theirs is a position of such power, and most of all, privilege, and yet, from what I hear, and read from so many, that privilege has been entirely mislaid. It's a position of trust that requires a deep knowing that if you harm another, you literally harm yourself.

Around here, a lot of people feel that if someone else comes into your circle of awareness, they are almost a part of you, and deserve as much consideration as your best to yourself.

Naturally, this would be a very dangerous way to view the world, and operate in it, if a person were themselves suffering from layers and levels of trauma, as there would be an empathy that doesn't serve, but rather is sticky and muddy, lacking clarity and wisdom.


I think it's common to suffer some trauma around the age of seven, and it's a crucial stage which marks the next level of being: to age fourteen. Like you, I suffered some trauma in childhood, and had/have done a lot of 'work' on myself, over the years, and since I was always very focused on transformation as my fundamental way of being I honestly thought I was *finished* with it all, by my mid-thirties. I'd had some great breakthroughs with psychodrama and dream work, writing with my left hand, and various forms of energy work, etc.

Then I discovered EFT back about ten years ago, when I was going though some hormonal shifts, but I didn't do much with it for a few years. However, this idea of writing it down in a book came to me awhile back, when I was finding various thoughts were coming thick and fast, as more levels became available for healing. So I'd just start where you are, as they say.

Today’s date, or whatever, and the first thing that comes up. The beauty is, later, you'll have a sort of journaling shorthand, so you can view your progress through the onion -- and if you decide to, you can expand on any section of it, as you find writing to be a useful part of your practice. be utterly bare bones! You can always tear out a page, and write better statements. The thing with EFT is that you start with forests, and sort of zone in on individual trees, and then, once you deal with a few trees, ( offering them up into a better beyond, rather than hacking them down) you've essentially dealt with a whole forest, if that analogy makes sense. It's quite wonderful!


One thing I've learned recently, is that this process of EFT sharpens one's ability to 'feel' and notice sensations and triggers, and then to follow them to a thought, or a belief that underpins them. So, you start getting 'better' thoughts to work with. Think of it as a process of evolving clarity and precision, with EFT itself as the great tool and gate, and then let yourself off the hook of being perfect about it. (Considering your perseverance with university amid those challenges, it sounds as though you might have a touch of perfectionism :-) lurking somewhere in there. By the way, Brava, for that accomplishment, given the challenges and loneliness of it.)

I'd make it a small book, you can carry around. Keep it simple.

It might go like this:

1. I'm really tired. Like all the time.
2. I can't believe I've spent X number of years being sick.
3. Pissed off at X doctor. How could he...?
4.Sad about...
5. I know I need to forgive ---- (fill in blank, or make list!) but, I'm not ready to.

(That last one probably deserves its own page, since if you start tapping on it, you will find a new feeling/thought arises; a sign the process is working, and then you write that down, if you so desire, and tap on that.

The other good thing about giving some statements their own page, as the spirit moves you, is that it leaves room for a bit more in depth Journaling, on the subject. It's nice to write down how much a certain feeling went form a ten to a one, and then be able to view that later, when you are feeling like "this is not working" (another great EFT statement, which is like an Open Sesame)


You get the idea. I think you will find, if you do this, you feel GOOD about the way you are now establishing a mode of really caring for yourself in a true way. Loving yourself, and working at healing, both, in a way that's not overwhelming, and is not about 'lack' or weakness, such as 'being strong' and all that other stuff is, at heart.

-- The book is just 'proof', so to speak, for the early days, and a gift to yourself later. But it's quite a rush for many people, to start experiencing the ability to give themselves something that truly does work, that empowers,
dissolved fears, and does so much more, especially as many of us have come a loooong way, and often suffer with the deeper suspicion that in fact WE have betrayed ourselves, more than anyone else doing it TO us...and that is a big burden to carry.

Forgiveness is deep work. It never seems to stop, and I find it extends to every 'thing' and every one, and ultimately comes back to "me", which is the great liberator.
I never could have dreamed that I would be in a place of forgiving myself for what others are doing, and yet this is the big "secret". And a happy surprise too. Anyway--enough said about that.

The sense is, with the book, you just write whatever you feel, as you put your attention to 'what's going on' -- whether it's physical pain, confusion, discouragement. Whatever.

And your 'writing it down', much like writing a dream down, allows it to go to a storage place, of being moved from a container full of garbled impressions, to something more clear. You might take ten minutes and see what comes up, and write it down, then leave it for a later EFT session.

* Or, you might just do the EFT tapping, without any particular focus, but one of breathing deeply and 'smiling to yourself', however you interpret that; and simply tapping until a thought comes, and then writing it down, and continuing the tapping.

But this is not to say, you can't just do it wherever, whenever. You can. But the writing it down is away to create a 'session' for yourself, if that appeals to you.
Where you can track results.

When you get better at the EFT sequence, you can even do it without tapping, just by paying attention to the points, and mentally 'tapping'. This way, you can do it in public, in any situation, without drawing attention. It's very important to remember this; learn it--it takes minutes; then use it!!! Use it on everything from fears to pains to
passing irritations, to deep sadness, to worries about coffee enemas, to fixations on parasites.

The main thing is to start -and I'm not being glib here- Because for some reason, many, many people have 'discovered' or 'know about' or have heard of EFT, and do nothing with it!
(Often, it's the idea of "I love and accept myself" that is the biggest hurdle, or, I don't believe in this stuff--both of which make good tapping statements in themselves!!!) And then some time later, usually in a state of desperation they try it for something, and think WOW--this stuff really works!

As the founder of it, Gary Craig used to say "try it on everything!"
That means, from a headache, to MS, to fear and anxiety: a few of the best things that can work really fast.

 

Hope you will forgive the long-windedness; in a desire to be comprehensive, sometimes there are too many words.

looking forward to your healing, of which I am certain is to be! Chiron
