We stand on one side of a bridge, unaware that the ultimate remedy for our ailments awaits us on the other side. We are unaware because our attention has been diverted by the conventional beliefs ingrained within the healing professions. Accordingly, we spend mammoth amounts of money to develop thousands of remedies for the multitudes of diseases that we believe we have identified. Much of this is unnecessary and wasteful — and you’ll see why. Furthermore, top medical researchers work within the world’s most prestigious universities to study the body in great detail — from cells to neurotransmitters and beyond. Just to administer these complicated treatments requires extensive medical training and licensing. The cost to the patient, of course, is enormous. One can easily spend several months’ income for a week in a hospital. Yet these efforts frequently fail — or are temporary — and may cause even greater problems. The system is clearly flawed. On the other side of the bridge awaits The Unseen Therapist. Her methods are completely different from those in which we have invested so heavily. They are gentle, peaceful, applicable to everything and limitless. No special education is required and they are free. She will be heralded throughout this book and described in more detail later. For now, please know that She does not look to your body to find relief because the true cause does not exist there. Rather it is in your mind and that becomes Her focus. This is why She is so effective. She aims at the true cause of your ailments rather than spending massive resources on trying to alleviate symptoms. Properly understood, all your diseases — from hiccups to cancer — are mere symptoms of this deeper cause. When I refer to the mind, I am not talking about the brain. The brain is a physical organ of the body, as are kidneys, lungs and the liver. The mind, however, is intangible and thus our medical researchers have difficulty containing it for scientific purposes. It is spiritually based and is where your beliefs and emotions reside. It draws its power from your spiritual dimension — from the other side of the bridge. Your goal here is to venture across that bridge toward levels of love and peace that generate increasing levels of healing. The further you go, of course, the more profound your healing becomes. The foundation is essential: T his book is concise because its essential messages are easy to grasp. However, for best results, you will need the foundational concepts before you learn the actual method. For example, the intro to the actual healing process is explained in only a few pages in the latter portion of this book (see The Personal Peace Procedure). If you are consumed with curiosity, you could go there now and skip the essential NewThink foundation that leads up to that process. However, be aware that without understanding those crucial concepts, it will most likely cost you both time and results. If you do choose to skip ahead, be sure to return here so you can have the full picture. So what is NewThink? I explain it next. e-hugs, Gary

Kim Fairrell Gets Relief from Heavy Depression "The Unseen Therapist allowed me to wake up this morning, for the first time in decades, with a positive outlook in life. Medications did very little for my depression. My suicide thoughts have disappeared and I’ve all but forgotten what heavy depression is like.” Camille Vache-Guyet’s Severe Cervical Spine Pain is Gone — as is Her Addiction to Cigarettes “After a few sessions with The Unseen Therapist regarding my severely degenerated cervical spine, the pains and discomforts have vanished. I haven’t seen them for a year. Also, my 20+ year addiction to cigarettes seems to be gone after 3 Unseen Therapist sessions 3 months ago. I haven’t wanted one since.” Jagjeet’s Client has “Strange Tingling” Related to Internal Happiness JagjeetJagjeet Singh Ahluwalia works with The Unseen Therapist on a client’s emotional issue and, during the process, he reports… “So with a little bit of pre-talk I just asked her to close her eyes and requested The Unseen Therapist to take over. After a couple of minutes (actually less than 2) she opened her eyes and she was all smiles and said I feel this strange tingling all over my body and her legs were kind of shaky because of whatever she was feeling. She could not believe what she was experiencing internally, the happiness that had suddenly come over her.” Carol Smith no Longer Considers Herself a Victim “After one session with Gary and The Unseen Therapist, I am no longer burdened by the childhood thought that I am a victim.” Peace and Relief from Crohn’s Disease for Patsy Anthony “The Unseen Therapist not only gave me relief for Crohn’s Disease, She also installed within me an incredible sense of peace. I feel like my true self again.” Dominique Monette, MD Gets Relief for Leaky Gut Syndrome “Unless there is an immediate medical emergency, I recommend The Unseen Therapist for my clients before resorting to drugs, surgery or other invasive medical methods. She is efficient, gentle, highly effective and was a central player in my recovery from leaky gut syndrome.” e-hugs, Gary

Note: This book was first written in 2014 and its concepts remain valid to this date. However, it tends to focus on the impressive physical (disease, pain, etc.) results that can come from using our methods to establish Personal Peace within. It should be emphasized, however, that both EFT Tapping and Optimal EFT (The Unseen Therapist) can help us achieve impressive results not only in our physical health, but also in relationships, money, business, and performance areas (sports, speaking, singing, etc.) as well. As each of us enters our own Palace Of Possibilities , incorporating the Power of The Unseen Therapist into our process on an ever deeper basis, we are able to establish a peace of mind which in turn can bring even more remarkable outcomes, often reaching far beyond typical expectations. Thus, while reading this book, please be aware of the expanded kaleidoscope of its uses. The Unseen Therapist is your “spiritual healer within.” She is ever-present and, when you learn to use Her skills properly, you will find She is vastly more powerful than drugs, surgeries and other man-made attempts at healing. She represents a healing revolution that leaves your current beliefs behind and whisks you off on a magic carpet ride into your personal Palace of Possibilities. The Ultimate Remedy: This is where the impossible becomes routine. It is where your ultimate remedy resides and, once mastered, it is also where your view of the entire healing field will shift. Your need for drugs and surgeries will be minimized or erased. Side effects will fade into near nothingness and heavy expenses will be dramatically curtailed. In their place will emerge creative possibilities that will bring new levels of healing into your hands. If you are a patient, you can draw on The Unseen Therapist for self-help. If you are a doctor, nurse, therapist or other practitioner, you can use Her abundant support before resorting to invasive procedures and their side-effects. To do Her work She needs your readiness and proper invitation. A Doable Process: Within these pages, you will learn how to develop that readiness and provide that invitation. Doing so involves a very doable process that can generate impressive benefits even while you are learning. You may go as far as you wish and are limited only by your motivation. Once mastered to the ultimate degree, you will hold a power that can deliver benefits for every ailment and human achievement imaginable. This includes everything from a common headache — to every conceivable emotional issue — to your sales quota -- to your golf score -=- to the apparently hopeless diseases for which conventional methods often fail. Includes Your Issues: And, yes, that includes your Issues, even if they are considered exotic, rare or impossible. In the next chapter are a few examples from my students. Many more to follow later. e-hugs, Gary

Dramatically new innovations are often met with skepticism. This is because old, cherished beliefs must be questioned and new thinking, or NewThink, must take their place. That process can be filled with excitement because it’s fun and invigorating to think in this new territory. Nonetheless, resistance to such shifts is common and understandable. We tend to like our old beliefs, even if they don’t always serve us well. We are used to them. They are comfortable and represent what we believe, and hope, are true. That’s why my primary task here is to establish the NewThink foundation for you. It is not, as you might expect, to establish the validity of our healing method; that is the easy part because you can experience its undeniable validity through simple practices on your own issues. To facilitate understanding, I have broken our NewThink concept into several digestible pieces. Each follows the other in logical sequence. You will find them in subsequent articles. However, be prepared. NewThink is likely to challenge many of your beliefs. e-hugs, Gary

Hi Everyone, Study how Patzia Corazon Gonzalez zeroes in on an important core issue. She says, She came down only to a 7 out of 10, and I was a bit surprised it hadn't gone down more. I then posed the question: "If this pain had an emotional component what would it be?" Immediately Mary replied: "I have to protect myself!" Hugs, Gary By Patzia Corazon Gonzalez Hi Gary: "Mary" came to see me because she had been having a lot of pain in her left shoulder and neck. She had seen her doctor, an acupuncturist, a massage therapist and it all helped but the pain kept coming back after a few hours. She was willing to try "this weird technique" to see if it helped her at all. Mary's pain and discomfort were at a level of intensity of 8 on a scale of 0 to 10. We did the following setups: Even though nothing has worked, and maybe this won't work either… Even though I have this pain in my neck and my left shoulder… Even though I have this pain in the muscles of my neck and left shoulder… Even though the ligaments in my neck and left shoulder are in pain… Even if it hurts to sleep on my left side, and it's my favorite side to sleep on… She came down only to a 7 out of 10, and I was a bit surprised it hadn't gone down more. I then posed the question: "If this pain had an emotional component what would it be?" Immediately Mary replied: "I have to protect myself!" She was quite surprised, but didn't have a clue as to what she was protecting herself from. We did a couple of rounds on Even though I have this protecting shoulder and neck pain , I deeply and completely love and accept myself and I choose to receive the message this pain is holding for me. We then did a complete sandwich using "protecting shoulder pain" for the first round, and "message for me" for the second round. When I asked if something had come up for her, Mary looked at me and said her mother had kicked her out of the house when she was 16 and she didn't know how to protect herself. She was very scared. Mary started crying, and I held her hand and tapped the hand points. When she was able to talk again, we switched to the "Tell the Story" Technique, stopping almost every other sentence as this "long-forgotten" memory (she's in her late 50's) came spilling out while we tapped and tapped and tapped. We tapped for her mother's anger, she was shouting, Mary was "frozen and speechless," calling her Dad to come pick her up, packing a suitcase. Mary remembered feeling scared that her Mom would hit her so she hunched her shoulder to defend herself, we tapped on that. Even though Mom said I was useless… Even though Mom said she was done with taking care of me… Even though I couldn't defend myself against Mom's anger, I did the best I could. Even though Mom didn't want me there, Dad was willing to come get me and care for me. This session "daisy-chained" into several related aspects: her father had come to pick her up after driving 24 hours to get to the city Mary and her mother lived in. He was so upset, he was driving like a maniac on the way back and Mary was afraid to say anything. We tapped on her father's angry face, driving way over the speed limit. She couldn't protect herself there either and didn't know if she had made her Dad angry. Mary's Dad had to find a school for her in the middle of the school year, she didn't have any friends. We tapped for her "inner teenager." Even though I was scared and confused, I was an awesome teen. Even though I hated my mom and missed my mom, I was cool. Finally, she was at a 0 for her neck and shoulder, and for that specific event with all its aspects.  We ended the session with this quote: "I choose to be a pioneer of the future and release being a prisoner of the past." Mary called me a week later to tell me her neck and shoulder were fine, she felt great, and to her surprise a long standing chocolate addiction had disappeared! She'd been eating a chocolate bar every day for the past 20 years, and though she had a box of Mars bars in her closet, after a couple of days she noticed she hadn't eaten any and she had lost the craving! Mary has just ordered the EFT Course and has become an enthusiastic tapper! Thanks Gary, Patzia González-Baz Reminder : For upgraded methods, please see our free and near-free TRAINING options.

An Ideal EFT Tapping Metaphor For Why We Behave As We Do I have been a student of personal improvement and human behavior since I was a teenager. That journey has exposed me to a wide variety of theories about why people have the challenges they face and what it might take to overcome them. I have personal experience with all of the theories, and have experimented with my own version of those theories for decades. Eventually I came up with a metaphor that makes perfect sense to me and I call it the Writing on our Walls. To me, it explains perfectly how the events in our lives create our beliefs about the world, and how those beliefs can either pose limits or open new possibilities. As I was developing EFT Tapping, this metaphor was already second nature to me. When I work with clients, my understanding of their issues is based on the Writing on their Walls. Every question I ask, every direction I choose to go, every test I perform, and every bit of language I use comes from that perspective, so understanding it will help you get a lot more out of EFT Tapping.

The rest of this article has been compiled from my previous writings on the Writing on our Walls concept and includes video discussions for illustration. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We live in a Palace of Possibilities. It is an ever expanding structure, filled with awesome rooms and annexes that are loaded with achievements and joy. These rooms are open to everyone, although most of us only visit a few of them. It's not that we are barred from any of the rooms. Rather, it's that we choose to dwell only in those rooms within which we are comfortable. Somehow, we don't "belong" in those other, more expansive rooms. They are for others. They are for richer people and more privileged people and people with more talent than us. We stay within the familiar (our comfort zones) and don't venture beyond the walls (limits) of the rooms we have chosen. Why? Because our cans and can'ts are written on those walls and we obey those dictates as though they were real. They are reflected in our careers, our incomes, our relationships, and even our self image. In fact, there is scarcely any part of our makeup that is not affected by what's written on those walls. The words on our walls are metaphors for our self talk, of course. They represent the attitudes, opinions & beliefs that we have accumulated over the years. Many of them are hand-me-downs from our parents, grandparents, teachers, coaches, religion, peers, books, TV and an endless list of other "authorities" in our lives. Upon inspection many of them are laughable. Nonetheless, they still seem to have a hold on our progress. We all have different words on our walls. That's why we appear to have different limits. Your limits are different from mine because the "truths" written on your walls are different from the "truths" written on mine. However, they are not really "truths" at all. They are just the guidelines we have adopted for getting through life … AND … many of them are fictions. They are hand-me-down beliefs that were written on our walls by others and we have been dutifully obeying them ever since. This need not be. Below is a video wherein I discuss this important point with a live audience. This brings me to a foundational concept. Its truth is undeniable, yet it is so subtle that we tend to ignore it. Here it is: We constantly consult the writing on our walls. That writing is our most prominent advisor and we consult it all day long. And why not? It represents every experience we have ever had. It contains all of our "how to's." It contains our cans & can'ts as well as our shoulds & should nots. It contains our musts & must nots as well as our sense of fair play. It contains our version of proper behavior as well as what is right or wrong in this world. It contains our judgments, our successes and our failures. It's all there … everything we hold to be true … written on our walls. For example, we eat soup with a spoon instead of a fork because our knowledge base (the writing on our walls) advises us to do so. This is subtle, I know, but it's as if we ask the question, "How do I eat this soup?" and the writing on our walls says, "Use a spoon." This is why we wear jeans on some occasions and black tie or evening gowns on others. We constantly consult the writing on our walls for what to do. Those words represent the "truth" as we have learned it. We consult those walls for just about everything. Those words tell us about our opportunities as well as our limits … and often they conflict with each other. On the subject of finances, for example, they may tell us, "This is America, the land of opportunity--go for it." But they may also tell us.... "You are too young (or too old) for that." "You don't have enough education." "You are a woman and are limited by the glass ceiling." "You are a minority." "People who take risks end up broke." "Getting ahead depends on who you know." "Rich people are dishonest." This fictional list of limits goes on indefinitely, of course. Are any of them written on your walls? If you believe any of them … or if any of them ring true ... I suggest that you have bought into an expensive "limit" that need not be there. Below is a video wherein I explore with a live audience this vital concept. Now consider this… My consistent thoughts become my reality Although we don't often hear it stated this way, the main goal of psychotherapy has always been to have clients change their consistent thoughts so that the quality of their lives (their reality) will shift for the better. The primary goal has been to get clients to think differently about their traumas, fears, guilt, grief, etc. in hopes that they will put these things "in perspective" and go about their lives more positively. Their consistent thoughts, once changed, become their new reality. Alert - Greatly enhance this Tutorial: If you have not already done so, become a member of The Palace of Possibilities to gain access to all relevant materials for both Gold Standard EFT (Tapping) and Optimal EFT. Many clients are unaware of The Palace of Possibilities in which they live because they dwell in their own personal dungeons amidst their thoughts of past abuses, war memories, fear, guilt and the like. Their consistent thoughts have become their reality and, when they walk into your therapy office, they bring their dungeons with them. The writing on their walls provides graphic evidence of their personal guilt, shame, etc. and IT IS WRITTEN THERE IN CAPITAL LETTERS, SHOUTING AT THEM. There is other writing, of course … even some writing of a more positive nature. However, it is overwhelmed by those capital letters. Those capital letters become the focus of their thinking … the centerpiece of their existence. They have become lifetime "limits" and will continue to do so until that writing is erased and replaced. This reminds me of "Ned," a neighbor of mine. Ned is the ultimate pessimist and is quite proud of it. His conversation consistently turns to the problems in his life, the world, etc. and, as you might expect, he has managed to manifest many problems in his reality. By contrast, I am quite optimistic. In the eyes of some (especially Ned), I would give major competition to Pollyanna. I am forever looking for opportunity and, interestingly enough, I seem to find it. Ned also seems to find what he is looking for (problems). He rarely finds opportunity. We see the world quite differently, yet we are both looking at the same world. Many years ago, Ned and I were in conversation about the movie "Rocky." I thought the movie was exhilarating. To me, it was all about how a "has-been" could pull himself up by his bootstraps and fight the heavyweight champion of the world. It was exciting. It was a glorious example of the power of the human spirit. However, when I asked Ned about his opinion of the movie he said, "It was about two bums beating each other up." Even though the movie was identical for both of us … exactly the same words, pictures, music, etc. … we had diametrically opposite reactions. How could this be? The only difference, of course, was what we brought to the movie. It was our filter (our consistent thoughts) through which we perceived the events and gave them meaning (our reality). That movie, like life, was the outer projection of an inner state. Our experience of it was strictly an "inside job." We see life as a projection/reflection of our mindset. Our consistent thoughts become our reality. Again, we are constantly consulting the writing on our walls. We do it all day long and the most prominently written words on our walls become our consistent thoughts (and thus our reality). We would, of course, all like to have a better reality. We would prefer to have more emotional freedom … to be more spiritually evolved … to live in the more expansive annexes of our personal Palace of Possibilities. It follows then, that the way to achieve a better reality is to change our consistent thoughts because changing our consistent thoughts automatically changes our reality. Below is video emphasizing this point. I am aware that this is a cognitive sort of approach and, as such, some of it is old (but powerful) stuff. What takes us to new levels here is the combination of these tools with EFT Tapping. Releasing the heavy emotional stuff is like erasing the writing on the walls. Once we erase the limiting words from our walls, we are free to replace them with whatever we want … and the result is freedom from those limits. What happens when you try to add new information to your Walls? An empty coke bottle was the star of a movie many years ago. If you saw “The Gods Must Be Crazy” then you already know the many lessons it has for us. In that movie an empty coke bottle was thrown out of a small airplane while flying over a sparsely populated, "uncivilized" tribal land. The natives found it and, having no writing on their walls about coke bottles, were quite puzzled about it. They didn't know what to make of this strangely shaped thing with white markings on it. Where did it come from? Did it grow on a tree? How could something so hard be so transparent? To give this coke bottle meaning, the natives had to "fill in the blanks" as best they could from the writing on their walls. The natives thus assigned all kinds of meanings for this "gift," including the assumption that it must be an omen from the Gods. It became a prized possession and various factions of the tribal community had fights over it. It caused so much stress and consternation that the natives finally concluded that the Gods must be crazy. So they threw it off of the edge of the world (a high cliff) in an effort to give it back to the Gods. There is an old saying that goes, "Nothing has any meaning except the meaning we give it." I have found it quite useful over the years but wish to restate it now to fit within the Palace of Possibilities metaphor. Restated, it goes like this, "Nothing has any meaning except that which is written on our walls." Indeed, our personal meaning for everything from a coke bottle to the Bible is written on our walls. This meaning includes, of course, the many shadings that reflect our personal experiences. Hand me a baseball, for example, and I will hold it fondly and recreate within myself the many great baseball memories that shaped my early years. Hand a baseball to someone else, however, and it will simply be an inanimate object that other people use to play a silly game. They may even greet it with disdain if it represents the rejection of not being chosen for the team. A baseball is a baseball. But the meaning we give to it can be widely different. It's all written on our walls. It should be clear by now that we constantly consult the writing on our walls in order to derive meaning from the barrage of sensory data we receive all day long. Even as you read these words your system is asking, "what do these words mean" and, of course, you get a reflection from the writing on your walls that serves as your answer. Your system compares the words you are reading with your existing database of experiences, beliefs, etc. (writing on your walls) and interprets the words for you. This is subtle, of course. Very routine. We rarely give the process any more than a passing thought. But, like breathing, we do it all day long. But what do we do when we come across something for which there is no writing on our walls? How do we make sense of it when our walls are blank on the subject? Simple. We do what the natives did with the coke bottle. We make up a meaning that fits as closely as possible within the "truth" that is already written on our walls. The resulting "meaning" is probably fictitious, of course, but that doesn't keep us from doing it. It is a human need to make meaning of the world around us and we will always (yes, I said always) do it in a manner that fits within our existing beliefs. Observe children in this regard. They often come across new things (at least new to them) and they make up meanings for them by "filling in the blanks" from the limited writing on their walls. Thus an earthquake is a monster stomping its feet and Preparation H is what Grandpa uses for toothpaste. When children do this, we call it fantasy. But when we do it, we call it reality. As adults, we don't often come across totally new items in our environment but we do experience partial information with great frequency. To give full meaning to this partial information we (like the children) fill in the blanks from the writing on our walls. The Vietnam Veteran who hears the word "war" fills in the blanks with a far different meaning than does the teenage videogame player. The victim of an abusive father fills in the blanks regarding Father's Day much differently than do others. This is critically important to recognize because it is at the very center of emotional healing. Therapy clients are constantly filling in the blanks to make meaning of the world around them. Listening to clients as they fill in the blanks leads to big clues regarding core issues. True healing on these issues is evidenced by how they fill in the blanks before and after using EFT Tapping. This is important. Very important. In some cases, listening to the changes in how clients fill in the blanks can be more useful than the 0-10 scale because it often points to more healing. The 0-10 scale is quite useful, of course, but nothing is as useful as the cognition change that is evidenced by how the client fills in the blanks. That cognition change is the true bottom line. Finally, there is a freedom involved in fully recognizing what we do with the writing on our walls. Recognizing that everyone (including ourselves) constantly consults that writing for their version of the "truth," leads to more peaceful understandings and forgiving attitudes. It helps us to stand back from disagreements and de-personalize other people's actions. After all, they're just spouting off what other people have written on their walls as though it was somehow the "truth." It allows us to smile at our own comedies and recognize our personal "limits" as being mental fictions that are little more than hand-me-down beliefs from previous generations of parents, teachers, peers, and others that we relied on for guidance in this world. What happens when the Writing on your Walls is challenged? (The Tail-Ender) We have already discussed the general process of adding new information to your Walls. If there isn’t any reference to go with, you simply create, using what is already written on your walls, a meaning that fits. But what happens when the new information is in direct opposition to what‘s already there? Here, we introduce the “Tail Ender”. It’s the self talk that provides an instantaneous objection to new information that might conflict with your existing “truth” about the world. If I tell people that the color of the sky is brown, their likely self talk might be something like, “That’s ridiculous. The sky is blue”. If I try to convince my neighbor, Ned, that Rocky is an inspirational movie. His self talk would likely say, “No one wants to be a bum like those guys.” If I tell a poor man that he could be a millionaire. His self talk might say, “Yeah, but then I’d be greedy.” The Writing on your Walls is there to help you navigate through a world that is often uncertain. It helps you make “intelligent” choices, it helps you avoid danger, and it reinforces your view of what is valuable in this world … it is there to keep you safe. We rely on those “truths” much more strongly than we realize, and that becomes most evident when they are directly challenged. A first class way to challenge the Writing on someone’s Walls is to use a technique called Affirmations. This technique has been around for decades as a personal improvement tool based on the popular premises of “positive thinking,” “mind over matter,” or “you are what you think.” In general, you decide on a goal like losing weight, making more money, or whatever else you can dream up, and design a statement that assumes your goal has become a reality. My normal weight is 130 pounds. I earn $100,000 per year easily and consistently. I am now irresistible to my perfect romantic partner. Properly designed, an Affirmation will be in direct conflict with the Writing on your Walls. It affirms a reality that not only isn’t currently true, but stretches your belief about what is possible. More importantly, it also produces Tail Enders which bring with them valuable information about the emotional makeup of any client. Here's an example of what I mean. Let's say a 200 pound woman uses an affirmation aimed at weighing 130 pounds. She might affirm something like this... "My normal weight is 130 pounds and that's what I weigh." As a result, she is likely to have one or more "tail enders" show up at the end of her affirmation. They might go like this... "But if I lose the weight, others will expect me to keep it off." "But if I lose the weight, I will have to spend a lot of money for new clothes." "But if I lose the weight, men will hit on me and expect sex." "But if I lose the weight, men may not hit on me and then I will know I’m not loveable. "But if I lose the weight, I will have to give up my favorite foods." This list of possible tail enders is endless. These are just examples. They are not spoken or articulated, of course, but are subtle (and powerful) reflections of the existing obstacles for losing weight. They are the "yes, buts" and, in fact, represent the true affirmation. That is why affirmations don't work well in practice, despite the persuasive logic behind them. They are typically followed by the opposing tail-ender which always has the last word on the subject. Thus it wins the argument and keeps people right where they were before the affirmations came out their mouths. If you are an EFT Tapping Practitioner treating someone who wants to lose weight, knowing these dynamics can save you a lot of time. More importantly for the EFT Tapping process, Tail Enders often point directly to the Specific Events that contributed to those beliefs. To carry on with our weight examples, consider these explorations with clients: “If others expect you to keep the weight off, how do you know that? Did someone say that to you?” Maybe someone’s parents made it clear over and over that once you achieve something you must never let it go, or maybe there were peers in school who judged someone who had lost weight then put it back on. “If men will hit on you and expect sex, what is wrong with that? Was there a time when having sex was uncomfortable for you? Have you ever felt pressure to have sex?” Maybe there were uncomfortable dating experiences or unreasonable pressures to have sex. Finding those Specific Events will go a long way toward getting deeper results with EFT Tapping “If losing weight means you will have to give up your favorite foods, was there ever a time when you were deprived of food? Or when snacks were taken away as a punishment?” As soon as you find a Specific Event, head straight for the Tell the Story Technique to release that disruption. In most cases when someone reveals their objection to reaching a goal, it represents a fear or a memory of discomfort. Those Specific Events can usually be revealed by asking “what does that remind you of?” or some variation thereof. Using this metaphor of the Writing on our Walls, the existing Writing would represent our existing “affirmations” about what is true in our world. The conventional affirmation process attempts to replace those truths with new truths. However the tail enders provide strong competition. They act as persistent reminders that we want our truths, we are comfortable with our truths, and we won’t be giving them up easily. Those “affirmations,” positive or negative, will dictate our choices as long as they are in place. If we listen to ourselves talk, we will hear our "limits" and other forms of affirmations come rolling out of our faces. Things like... "I can't sing," "Making money isn't spiritual," "Women can't compete in a man's world," "I never seem to find the right words," etc. etc. etc. ...are regarded as “truths” that keep us right where we are. We are using them every minute of the day. They shape our lives because they reflect our beliefs and our attitudes. You are using them right now as you read this. You are consulting the writing on your walls (your existing affirmations) to agree or disagree with what I am saying. Have you found yourself saying, "Yes, but..." while reading any part of this Tutorial? If so, you are affirming something, perhaps a limit. We already know that EFT Tapping serves as a highly effective eraser for all the negative emotions and beliefs that we have written on our Walls. Once we can navigate through someone’s belief system, we can uncover the important core issues and related Specific Events that need to be addressed in order to release EFT Tapping’s full potential. e-hugs, Gary © Gary Craig All Rights Reserved

"All of our issues, including this one, have a cause..." No matter what Lorie did -- no matter how diligently she strove to improve herself -- it was never good enough. Underneath it all, she had an emotional urging that subconsciously said, "You must do It right... or else." All of our issues, including this one, have a cause. Accordingly, this video shows our joint exploration of the "cause possibilities" underlying this limiting belief. We spent the first hour finding this cause and did a lot of reframing therein that should be useful for multitudes of readers. Then, together, Lorie and I invited The Unseen Therapist to bring resolution to the issue. Solid results... and... we appear to have kicked the center out of the limited belief. See for yourself.

"This develops into a tender session with the phrase, "I love you," being ever-present at the end." You will love Sally. You will notice that she has a challenging speech difficulty and that's why her son, Nick, appears in this video to help as an interpreter. With his help, and Sally's diligence, we are able to give Sally a "Good Start" on gaining freedom from her critical, abusive childhood. This develops into a tender session with the phrase, "I love you," being ever-present at the end. Tears and love dominate. Beauty everywhere. Along the way we have an Unseen Therapist session that helps bring Sally freedom. Many insights and how-to's here for the dedicated student. For more, be sure to visit the ESSENTIAL LINKS below.

In this book, you will find the long awaited answer for unlocking your healing power within. Anyone can learn it and, once mastered, "Impossible" Healings can emerge. Even beginners can, and do, get impressive results. No drugs, surgeries or other invasive methods involved. It's an introduction: We are climbing a Stairway to Miracles here by engaging the spiritual dimension (The Unseen Therapist) to provide healing well beyond our expectations. And, as you might expect, the possibilities are so vast that this book can only introduce the basics. More materials available: Become a member and study all the informatie at your own pace. Legal Notes Your freedom and responsibility: T his book contains life changing ideas that bring with them important rights and responsibilities. You are free, of course, to use them for your own education and personal improvement. You are also free (and encouraged) to practice what you learn and to join with others, professionally or otherwise, for personal development. With these freedoms, of course, comes your 100% responsibility for your use of this material. As conditions to its use, you agree that there are no guarantees of any kind and everything in this book should be considered experimental and thus to be used at your own risk. You further agree to hold harmless Gary Craig or his successor, emofree.com, unseentherapist.com, PalaceOfPossibilities.com and any contributor or related person/entity regarding this book from any liability or legal claims. Help us maintain integrity. You may freely use this material, but please don’t teach it. To protect the integrity of this material from dilution, it needs to be taught from one consistent source. Otherwise, it becomes distorted through multiple belief systems. Thus, no one is authorized to teach it, or use it in any commercial manner, via books, DVDs, trainings, certifications, websites or other means without the written consent of Gary Craig or his heirs or assigns. Accordingly, the terms, The Unseen Therapist™, Optimal EFT™, Official EFT™, EFT Symphony™, Stairway to Miracles™, Palace Of Possibilities™ and others are legally trademarked so that no one may teach it under these, or confusingly similar, names.

Opening Thoughts Major Advancement: If you are a student of my original healing method, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), please know that The Unseen Therapist represents a major advancement to that process. It is deeper, broader and more efficient than EFT (or “Tapping,” as it is often called). You may have great affection for EFT Tapping because it has brought you many rewards. In time, however, you will likely replace it with this more advanced, non-tapping process. For those interested, The Gold Standard (Official) EFT Tapping Tutorial is still available on our website. The Power Of Repetition: Gary was a great believer in repetition. It is the most time-honored teaching tool on the planet and he used it frequently. The more you are exposed to an idea, particularly the power of The Unseen Therapist, the more easily you can learn it. So, if you read an idea herein repeatedly, be thankful if it bores you a bit. That is far better than being exposed to an idea once and not have it take root in your memory. Because of the major importance of The Unseen Therapist in your life, I do you a shameful disservice if I don’t drum these crucial ideas home. So…expect repetition in this book :-) e-hugs, Gary

A "Good Start" Session You may have seen a previous video with Andre regarding his extraordinary results with The Unseen Therapist for Agoraphobia, Anxiety, Panic Attacks and more. Since that session, he has gone many weeks without any symptoms or the need for Ativan and other medications. Recently, however, he has had some recurrences. This is well within expectations and that is why I constantly urge students to test their work to see what may still be undone. The ultimate test, of course, involves real life experiences and that is what brought up these remnants for Andre. Watch as we explore the causes for these recurrences and then bring in The Unseen Therapist for further resolution (and more in-depth testing). Our members will appreciate the depth of this video. However, this session is not a substitute for quality training. For more, be sure to visit the essential links below. Please consult physicians on all medical issues.

These full length sessions are specially created so that you can plug in your own issues and benefit along with the client. Examples: 7 Sessions with Sandi on multiple issues. As you will see, Sandi had been dealing with numerous anxiety-related issues as well as IBS, Migraine headaches, Asthma and Eczema for many years. Behind all these ailments was an abusive past, a violent father and consistent conditioning that she was "bad," "naughty," etc. We address, of course, her underlying emotional issues and, as a result, her physical ailments fade. Each of the sessions contains one or more visits with The Unseen Therapist as well as artistic reframes. 4 Sessions with Gary W on vision issues. As you will see in these video sessions, we sometimes aim The Unseen Therapist (whom Gary prefers to call Quan Yin, a spiritual presence of his own preference) at the symptoms and, at other times, we aim at the emotionally charged specific events that we suspect may be the underlying cause. At the end we have great success. 7 Sessions with Bobbe on a mystery issue. Bobbe experienced an unexplained overwhelming emotional crisis (crying, shaking, abreaction) and asked me for help. Finding the underlying cause took quite a bit of digging and, along the way, a chronic cough provided helpful clues. These "mystery issues" happen to many others and finding relief for them often seems elusive... at least if you are using conventional methods. Not so, with Optimal EFT. 9 Sessions with Doug on a rejection issue. Doug had severe difficulty mingling in social situations, especially when conversing with ladies. The core of this came from childhood where he had father-anger issues and was often ignored by his school peers and others. We also dealt successfully over the death of a dog, Ozzie. 2 Sessions with Sharon on a childhood sexual abuse issue. Sharon experienced childhood sexual abuse and repressed it until age 43. The memories then showed up and caused her great discomfort. Many reframes and Unseen Therapist sessions help bring her resolution. 8 Sessions with Maite on multiple issues . These sessions with Maite bring substantial relief to five pages she presented regarding serious issues (three pages for physical symptoms and two pages for emotional concerns). Note that (1) we aim almost exclusively at emotional causes and (2) we use ONLY The Unseen Therapist for resolution of the many issues. Many reframes are threaded throughout the sessions. 14 Sessions with Marcia on her low energy . Marcia, age 70, was lethargic with low energy and had been so for many years. In fact, her energy was so low she was worried any session over 20 minutes would cause her to physically "tank" and take her several days to recover. Her physicians diagnosed her with extreme Adrenal Fatigue although, for our purposes, the diagnosis does not matter. The low energy can come from ANY diagnosis. This is because the approach I used with Marcia is valid for all issues, regardless of their label. That is one of the remarkable features of this process. 5 Sessions with Carole for anxiety relief. Carole had worked with EFT Tapping regarding her major anxiety issue but had gone essentially nowhere. This, to me, became an obvious opportunity to experiment with Optimal EFT. I say experiment because these videos occurred in the early years of Optimal EFT when I hadn't yet come up with the name, The Unseen Therapist. That's why, in these sessions, we call on "Source" or "Higher Intelligence." As you will see, the "experiment" paid off. 15 Sessions with "Carol" for VERY SEVERE CHILDHOOD TRAUMA. Here are her comments after the sessions. "The positive changes have been incredible. I've felt ways I didn't know existed for me. "Anyway, it felt like just PEACE, not just, but PEACE. A sense of faith in life maybe? It wasn't bliss of excitement, but more something I could take for granted would be ever present. Like I was connected to a sense of solidarity that was mine and mine alone. That feels like self trust - and more - I've never really felt like I've been allowed to have a part of myself that belonged just to me... that's priceless. "I feel more in my body, more connected to my body. "I'm grounded and feel a zest for life. Like I want to make up for lost time over the years. "I have more enthusiasm for things too. It's subtle, but powerful. "I can feel Her (The Unseen Therapist) deeply, like in my bones deep. She "swoops" in and fills me entirely, beyond body alone and I feel a sensation of deep and abiding peace. For those moments that I am totally held by Her, all is well and all always will be well. No doubt, no fear, just peace and love. Nothing for me to do. I'm not to do the healing but allow it as much as I can. It's beautiful. "I couldn't believe something [so awful] that felt that true and intense could have gone in seconds. But it's gone." 170 Recorded Webinars: Over 200 hours of intriguing video Q&A between myself, students and experts.
