Hello Al, thank you for the topic. As you know my resistance came and then it went when I was reminded that nothing else was working and I really want to get well. I understand, now, my resistance. Change is sometimes difficult and a little, and yes OK, a whole lot scary. In response to your question about only listening to the words rather than repeating them, here’s what I think. I like to repeat your words. I am not usually on the call, and when I listen to the recording I hear your guests on the call repeating your words. Is it possible for those who are listening to mute as so not to be heard? On other conference calls there is usually a mute button, IE *6. Then if you would go a bit slower with just a few seconds to allow us to repeat, without being heard, I would like that. I really want to be able to repeat after you. If the others can’t mute, then yes, no repeating, but maybe you can still just slow down and bit so we repeat while watching the video later.
Many thanks for all you do.
Love and Peace
Anna

I was unable to listen to the video as it kept stopping every few minutes. I am very interested in this subject. Is there anything you could do?

Thanks so much for this timely tapping session. Resistance is central to the blocks I encounter right now. It comes often in the form of procrastination for me. So I will implement what you suggest here. Peace and Blessings to you and yours Al.

Perhaps one of the most “miraculous” proofs of EFT success is for the unacquainted participant to overcome resistance to a logically “weird” technique by, just doing it! We have heard Gary use “even though I don’t want to do this tapping, because I don’t think it will work, and besides it makes me look silly” (or similar words). Sure enough, it adds humor, becomes playful to the doubters, – subtly puts acupuncture points to work – thereby lowering resistance (to what we have previously observed, and know will almost surely become success for them, too!). Thank you again Al, your 8for8 intuitive message this morning reminds us that even “sophisticated” users of EFT need to tap to “resist their resistance” by calling it what it is, and deliberately putting it first on their everyday list for achieving personal peace, (because we can otherwise unconsciously “edit” what we think we need to work on).
