EFT- a way of life

EFT is an excellent tool in unmasking emotions. But sometimes the resistance to letting go of the negative emotion comes from an unknown need to shield ourselves from what may lie behind it. Our subconscious mind detects our ability to handle the real emotion and more often than not, it chooses an easier negative emotion to cloak it with.  Most of you may be very aware of masking a negative emotion with a fake smile, fake laugh, etc., and that's the job our conscious mind does.  But when there is a lot of sadness, grief, fear, or just unpreparedness to handle what lies underneath - our subconscious mind does an excellent job of cloaking it with either anger, irritation, frustration, resentment, or even feelings of revenge.

Since the sessions were already booked, I offered to do surrogate tapping to ease the suffering. And then I realized in this case it worked better than the

In both cases, in the absence of acceptance, the problem festers, grows, multiplies, and sometimes develops in repeating patterns.  But what is the difference between resistance and denial? Resistance is being very aware of the problem and fighting it with various emotions. Most times it is anger, frustration, worry, fear, sadness or any form of desperation to get rid of it. With more resistance, there tends to be obsessive thinking about the problem, till it grows too big to handle.  Denial is different. There is a problem, but there is also a refusal to even acknowledge the problem. In fact, on the contrary, there is a tendency to make excuses, blame others, situations, and circumstances for the problem. In this case, there is also a tendency to feel that if we don't look at the problem. it'll disappear.  But the subco
