Relief from Headaches, Tension and Guilt
This is from a friend I persuaded to try EFT. We used the movie technique for the most part, stopping periodically to do some reversal statements.MT.
Dear Mildred,
What can I say, except thank you so much for enabling me to move out of a three-week low period that had moved into a migraine headache and sinus infection.
My perception of the experience:
Mildred helped me relax with a cup of herbal tea. Then she sat next to me and asked me what was on my mind/what had been bothering me. I told Mildred about my sense of guilt over my son's childhood experiences where I felt I should have been much more supportive and reactive; in particular, several incidents with one of his teachers.
Mildred gently took my arm and tapped it, asking me to repeat after her sentences such as, "I feel really badly that I did not support my son, but I know I am a good person." Constantly and consistently tapping on my temples, forehead, upper lip, chin, chest, and right side, Mildred had me repeat after her a series of statements around the situation I had described and my feelings about it.
It was such a relief to finally face the pain that had been pressing down on me for the past three weeks that through the first 15 minutes of the repetitive tappings and the constant talk, my emotions simply spilled out in tears and sobbing. The relief was so real -- I have never felt such a release of tension before. In a 1 1/2 hour session, Mildred had enabled me to put my grief and stress outside my body so that my tension headache left me and I felt very clear in my mind and thoughts. That clarity of thought lasted throughout the week and I have not experienced another headache or found myself dwelling on these issues around my son's childhood experiences.
The first night after the session, I did not sleep very well because I seemed to be so alert in a positive sense; however, the second night (Monday), I had the best sleep I have experienced in months.
Thank you, Mildred

A Sceptic gets Headache Relief
Joanne and I often encounter each other as we pick our children up for school. When she complains of a headache, I use the touch and breathe technique.MT
Mildred has practiced her technique on me more than once when I've
complained of a headache. Although I am incredibly skeptical, and I really don't want to believe that this works .... I cannot deny that my headaches
end ... immediately.
Thanks Mildred!

Long Term Unexplained Foot Pain
Relieved
I
frequently practice on my friends and neighbors, treating them for
aches and pains before they even know what is happening. Here is the
experience of one of them. The following example would seem to rule out
the placebo effect.MT.
I had a pain in my left foot, precisely, my ankle. I visited a few doctors but all of them gave me different diagnoses. I had X rays from many angles and nothing appeared on the pictures. I had a hard time to walk. Some times I could walk a few blocks, but some days the pain was so big that I had to stay at home. Once when I was riding a bicycle I almost caused car accident. When I had to stop at the light, I couldn't stand on my foot, so I fell down. I spoke with Mildred about my problem and she asked me to repeat some words after her while she was tapping on me. It lasted, about 15-20 minutes. After that my foot was much better. I could walk, and moreover I started to work in a store part time. During my work, I am all the time on my feet. My foot is good now. Sometimes, if I spend all day on my feet, I have minor pain. But I would have it without the previous problem with my ankle. I do not know what to think, on one hand I do not believe in this kind of alternative medicine, but on other hand it helped me.
JelenaHelp with a Personal Crisis
My first experience with EFT was during a personal crisis in my life. [Mildred] performed multiple sessions on me and I believe it helped cure my feelings of depression and anxiety. EFT is a no-nonsense approach to healing without drugs.

Panic Attack Sufferer Learns Tools to Help Herself
Over the past four or five years, stress producing factors have been magnifying their impact in my life, resulting finally in numerous anxiety attacks. I have used with varying degrees of success different breathing techniques, accupuncture, and massage. The acupuncture was helping, but the difficulty I encountered was that I couldn't just run to my acupuncture therapist every time a panic attack set in. Then I learned through Mildred about emotional freedom technique (EFT or, as I call it,"tapping"). It sounded like it might be what I needed since it used some of the breathing techniques I had learned, but also used similar techniques as acupuncture, without the needles and without waiting until I could get to my acupuncturist. I am happy to say that it has been what I hoped it would be. After only one session with Mildred, my rate of panic attacks dropped significantly, and when I do feel one coming on, I just use the simple techniques that I was taught, and they usually defuse the panic within minutes. I wish I could say that the stress causing factors in my life have been reduced; they haven't. However, I do feel that EFT has given me the tools I need to cope much more effectively with the stress. Don't ask me how or why they work; Mildred could give you a more complete answer to that question. I only know that they do.

From Anxiety to PeaceThe day I phoned Mildred, I was experiencing a lot of anxiety about a certain situation in my life. After briefly discussing the situation Mildred led me in an exercise. She gave me an affirmation which I repeated while I tapped different spots on my face and upper body. The exercise lasted about 15 minutes - she speaking and directing, I repeating and tapping. Gradually my fear and anxiety subsided and by the time we were finished I was at peace, knowing that I would be able to handle the outcome of that particular situation.
I have since used this technique on my own to deal with paralyzing emotions and difficult circumstances. Learning this technique through Mildred’s gentle direction has greatly helped me in accepting who I am right now. It has been a useful, simple effective way to move beyond the limitations of my fears and doubts into a healthier, happier life.
