Letter to Gary Craig:

Gary,

About two years ago I called you after seeing three EFT practitioners for pain without any success. I chose them because I was unable to pay the fee and insurance would cover health care professionals. I have since tried many different modalities of healing but knew I just needed to find the "right" person.

Well, yesterday I called Tom Masbaum in Oak Forest, Illinois for an EFT gift for my son's birthday. He (my son) too had used a hypnotherapist and EFT(on himself) without success. While inquiring about the mechanics of how to give a gift of EFT, I mentioned I was familiar with EFT and didn't get any good results. Tom, with his quiet gentle voice, said, "We'll get back to your son, but tell me something about your pain."  

Without going into too much detail and boring you, I told him I suffered from chronic back and hip pain. He asked a series of questions about past incidents and seemed to have an idea where he was going with me. However, I tried to tell him that couldn't be the problem. I had put no importance on the incident at the time. However, Tom gently reassured me and led me back to focus.

Well, it goes without saying he was right. What I thought was of no importance was at the core of my pain. I was able to move unlike I have for the last few months. I felt very comfortable with Tom; something I then realized I had not felt with any of the other practitioners.

Tom didn't just guide me through an EFT session he was going with me and seemed to share the session with me. I knew he would not take me anywhere I was uncomfortable and he genuinely cared about me and the outcome. I realized the importance of "trust" even when some think you just go through the sequence. Anyone can tell you to tap here or there but if instinctively you "feel" the person is not sincere then it means nothing.

Gary, this is the real clincher: Tom didn't even charge me! He stayed with me until I got results. It's important to want to make a living but to have a desire to help others with a talent from God is unbelievable in today's money driven world. I didn't think there were people,especially those that make their living as he does, who are still concerned about humanity. I think calling Tom was a "God thing". I am so thankful for you sharing EFT with the world and for people like Tom who are the true examples of God love.

An EFT Story Regarding Digestive Problems:

After the Arvada, Colorado workshop in 2005, a woman came for a private EFT session. She had been out of the convent for 17 years and was in therapy for all of those 17 years; weekly or monthly according to her budget. She did not tell me the details about her most painful memory, but it did involve her father. I chose to guide her to this memory because she said she had digestive problems that required antacids for most of her life. She was amazed that I would suggest that direction and commented that the issue for the 17 years in therapy was related to memories of her father. After using EFT for only one memory, and surprisingly to me also only one event in the memory, she could actually feel freedom from the pain, both emotionally and physically. She said “This one time with you, and what you call EFT, has done more for me than all the time and money I have spent on this issue during 17 years in therapy. God bless you and your work.”

An EFT Story Regarding Colon Problems:

SETTING: SEPT, 2007 HOLISTIC FAIR AT ST. FRANCIS WOODS IN FRANKFORT, IL, WHERE TOM HAD A BOOTH.

From: Karen
To: TommyATW@AOL.com

Hi Tom, sorry this is so late. I told you I’d write you a letter regarding the EFT session you did on me at St. Francis Woods. I also want to thank you for the interesting workshop at “Angels Among Us” on Dec, 12th. I hope you remember me. I was with a group of friends at St. Francis and one of my friends signed up for your EFT. Well at the last minute she decided not to do it so I took her place. That was the best $10.00 I ever spent. I have had ulcerative colitis for about 20 years off and on. I was told by doctors that I’d have to be on drugs for the rest of my life. Well, Dear Tom, in less than two minutes with you doing EFT on me, my life has changed. I have not had one day with any problems. I did throw the drugs away and will never take them again. You have opened up a whole new world for me. I am now studying EFT and hope to help others as you have helped me. Thank you so very much.

Sincerely,

Karen"

--------------------------------------------

Follow-up email from Karen dated January 9, 2007 

"Hi Tom, just thought I’d let you know I’m still doing fine. You did EFT on me a year and a half ago for ulceratIve colitis. It took minutes. You had me focus on someone, and when I released what I was apparently holding on to for twenty some years my colitis was gone. I thought you were a kook at first. I really didn’t believe this could possibly work. The doctors told me I would be on medication the rest of my life - 8 huge pills a day of Asacol which is a steroid. After leaving you, I went home and threw the pills in the garbage and have been fine ever since. I suffered for years and you cured me in minutes! Wow, I’m forever grateful. Just thought you’d like to know how I was doing. Thank you so much, Karen"

(For colon problems I always have the client focus on painful memories relating to a Father or Father figure; usually an authority figure. Karen's father is rather elderly and a great guy, yet she had one very painful memory relating to him. She focused very well during the few minutes of using EFT and the pain subsided immediately. It always does.)

A letter about a colon problem and stuttering, published on the main EFT web site:

By Gary Craig:

Hi Everyone,

Big thanks to Tom Masbaum for sharing the details of this remarkable 2-for-1 EFT result. Note how both the stuttering and the colon problem simply vanished (even though 3 doctors insisted that colon surgery was required).

Hugs, Gary
-------------------------------------------------

By Tom Masbaum, BS, EFT-ADV:

Here is another EFT success story involving stuttering, a severe colon problem and public speaking.

Jane Masteller, a Speech Pathologist working in the Chicago school system attended one of my Introduction to EFT workshops. Jane and I discussed using EFT for the children in her care who stuttered. We exchanged a few emails and phone calls and Jane arranged for a meeting with a counselor at one her schools.

Robin (not her real name), the school counselor who is in her fifties had stuttered all of her life. She told us how during her many years rising to her position in the school system, she would hold back from participating in discussions or debates with her peers for fear of being embarrassed with her stuttering.

After our EFT session with Robin, Jane put her thoughts in writing for us to use.  Here is Jane’s email to me.  I will comment again after the email.

“I am a speech-language pathologist working in the ChicagoPublic School system. EFT was administered to a co-worker of mine to address her stuttering as well as help to improve her health, particularly her colon. Following the EFT technique, she has reported that she is not stuttering anymore and she is not avoiding talking. People that stutter often report avoiding situations or avoiding certain words due to fear of stuttering.  Since using EFT she has reported she does not feel the need to avoid or escape speaking situations.

Before EFT was administered, she was concerned that she was going to have to endure surgery for her colon based on her doctor's recommendation. Post EFT, her doctor reported that it is not necessary to perform surgery, as she is improving now.

I have personally used EFT as a relaxation technique, to lessen or eliminate common ailments (headaches, muscle soreness), and to release painful memories. I have found it easy and efficient, and I teach it to as many people as possible. I have been using it with some of my students during speech-language treatment, and they have reported that they feel more relaxed and happy post EFT administration.

I would highly recommend for people to learn EFT, particularly professionals working in a therapeutic atmosphere.”

Jane Masteller, MA SLP CFY”

This is me again, Gary. When we first arrived at the school, Robin started to tell us how she had just switched doctors because her previous 3 doctors were insistent upon her having an operation to remove a large section of her colon. In three separate x-rays, they pointed out 15 to 18 inches of her colon that HAD TO COME OUT.

When she said this, Jane and I looked at each other as we knew where some of the tapping was going to be headed. Jane remembered my statements in the workshops relating to colon problems. I had stated that in my 30 plus years of moderating discussion groups and leading workshops, I had innumerable times heard a connection with colon problems and the person having a strong emotional memory or problem relating to their Father or Father Figure. In the past, all I could do was blandly suggest that they “clean it up” in their mind with their father. With EFT, I can offer them a pure blessing.

In taking Robin through the basic recipe (and Jane & I Borrowing Benefits by being surrogates and tapping for Robin), Robin’s first painful memory came down from an intensity level of 8 out of 10, to a 4, and stayed there awhile. Without telling us what that one was, she started to relate a memory about her Dad which brought on a great sadness, even to the point of tears for Robin.

We all tapped before she went any further, and after she brought those memories about her Dad down to a zero, Robin related some of the sad memories, but without the negative emotion.  For a few of the Dad-related memories that stayed stuck, we used the Collarbone Breathing Technique, but for the most part, we stayed with the Basic Recipe, as I wanted Robin to really remember the routine for her use after we left.

She also told us that the first memory she worked on also went down from that resistant 4 to a zero out of 10, so we went on to the stuttering.  After about 30 minutes more, I used my cell phone to call her office number, about 10 feet away from us.  Robin didn’t notice that I was calling her, as I just excused myself to make a quick call.

Robin got up and answered the phone with "Hello, this is Miss -----".  She said that was the first time in 50-some years that she could say "hello" as the first word when she answered the phone.  Since then I have heard her answer the phone a number of times like that without a stutter.

In a conversation with Robin about six weeks after our meeting, she said she is very excited that she just doesn’t stutter anymore.  When I asked her what her husband, a university professor, said about her not stuttering, she laughed and said “Men!  He hasn’t noticed it yet.”  I told her that he will probably one day notice that something is different and ask her if she changed her glasses or her hairstyle.

When I asked her about her colon problem, she said, “It’s much, much better.  Actually, Tom, it’s gone.”

Nine months later, Robin asked for another session of EFT as she had to speak in front of 500 incoming freshman students AND their parents, and she was nervous about it.  Later on, she reported back that her presentation was “flawless”, thanks to the EFT.

                                                   

As to her colon, Robin said, “I have a surprise for you, Tom.  You have been calling me every month asking me to go back to my doctor about my colon.  Well, I did and they took x-rays and told me to come back again in 6 months to check again.  They couldn’t believe that they could not find anything.  As I’ve been telling you Tom, the problem is gone.”

 

Love and Light.

Son's Spinal Disease Goes Away; May, 2009:

"Hi Tom,

Just wanted to let you know how my son, Tom, is doing. He was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease of the thoracic spine about 18 months ago. An MRI confirmed the findings. He was seen by orthopedic physicians, chiropractors, physical therapists, osteopathic physicians and medical sports doctors. He was told that his spine would eventually fuse together and cause immobility. The physicians informed him that not much could be done except for pain medication and physical therapy. My son is only 19 years old. He was very active in many sports and now was told that he wouldn’t be able to participate in sports any longer. Actually he was in too much pain to be physically active. Even a car ride on a not-so smooth road would cause him excruciating pain.
 

I was at a health food store and came across an issue of The Monthly Aspectarian, which had an article on EFT. I wanted to find out more information on it with the intent of learning distant healing for my son. My son goes to college in Wisconsin and I live in Orland Park, Ilinois.

 

There was an EFT demonstration the following day at our local community college. You taught the class the basics of EFT and I was amazed at how it softened painful memories. You also demonstrated muscle testing. Was it possible that EFT could help my son’s painful back?

My son was going to be in town the following week so we set up an appointment for us to meet you at SoderWorld in Hinsdale, IL. The session lasted about an hour. The EFT session completely eliminated my son’s pain. That was several months ago and he continues to be pain free. He was able to throw away his pain medications.

About a week or so after becoming pain free, he broke his thumb at a sports event. The orthopedic surgeon said that the ligament was completely torn and recommended surgery. This would be major surgery requiring general anesthetic and about six months of physical therapy afterwards. The surgeon wouldn’t know the extent of the injury until he opened my son up. Since this was my son’s right thumb and if the thumb didn’t heal properly, he would have difficulty grasping objects for the rest of his life. The surgeon said he would have to know by the next day if my son decided on surgery.

I was torn whether to have my son go through surgery because of the risk of complications. We had to make a decision soon. Well, I called you up and asked about muscle testing my son. We muscle tested over the phone. It showed that my son didn’t need surgery. My gut feeling also confirmed this.

'

It’s been almost two months. My son’s cast is off and he has complete mobility of his thumb. His thumb is absolutely fine (along with his spine).  He just came back from surfing in South Carolina yesterday – a little sunburned but otherwise doing great and all smiles.
 

I can’t thank you enough for eliminating my son’s chronic back pain and helping prevent unnecessary surgery on his thumb. He’s back to being an active, happy, college student. Carol P."

(This teenager had the pain in his back at the spot between the wing bones, where someone would be "stabbed in the back".  A number of my EFT clients have had the pain relieved in that spot by focusing on the feeling of being betrayed by someone, prior to the onset of the pain.  In this case he happened to have been betrayed by a long time girlfriend just weeks before the pain started.  Bingo!  We used the basic EFT routine on those memories along with our 4 additional tests for complete success in an EFT session.)

Story About Total Relief From Asthma:

Carole had severe asthma and attended a workshop in March.  We asked her to go back to childhood and see if she could find a memory where she felt smothered.  She used the EFT procedure while focusing on a childhood memory were she was not smoothered, but she felt smothered while watching a sibling being smothered as a punishment. Her asthma symptoms eased dramatically during the tapping session.  Here are her 2 emails about her EFT experience.

Tom,

I am a believer.  One week ago I was at the Dean Urgent Care Center in Madison because I was coughing a deep bronchial cough and could not stop wheezing.  The diagnosis was Asthma with Exacerbation.  I missed 3 days of work last week because of it and was never far away from my Albuterol inhaler, and spent every night listening to the strange sounds coming from my chest.  I almost didn't come to the EFT workshop yesterday, but I am so glad that I did!  While you were working on me I had a big "Aha!" moment that I chose not to share at the time because it was just too personal.  While you were working on me I had a "movie" running in my head that took me back to when I was six-years-old.  My Mother had to go to the Hospital for a surgical procedure and my paternal grandmother came to take care of me and my 2 sisters and little brother.  My Grandma was very stern and yesterday at the workshop I saw myself standing in my family's old living room, watching her take the bedsheets that my sister Janice had wet the night before (she was a bed-wetter well into her teens).  Grandma was rubbing her face in them and then she put Janice on the living room couch and sat on her face.  I saw myself standing there, just watching helplessly and not doing anything to stop her.  Guilt?

My sister Janice died instantly in a tragic head-on crash 3 years ago.  It was within a few months after that that I had a bought of pneumonia and have had asthma ever since then. 

On my way home from the workshop, I coughed a little bit in the car.  When I got home, I realized I was not longer wheezing.  I had no wheezing last night and none so far today, and the cough has all but disappeared.  My inhaler has stayed in my purse since the workshop yesterday. 

I have an appointment to see my doctor tomorrow that I had made in order to get a referral to a pulmonary specialist.  I'm thinking of cancelling it, but afaid he won't believe me if I explain to him why.  I may just go in so he can listen to my breathing for himself...

 

Good breathing is so wonderful!

 

God bless you Tom!

 Carole F."

 

(Carole did keep the follow up appointment.  The doctor could not hear anything in her lungs and just told her to come back in if the symptoms return. Next is her email a month later.)

I'm still breathing healthfully with no wheezing.  It is wonderful to be able to climb stairs and go for long walks with my husband without worrying about not being able to take in lovely deep breaths of air.  My inhaler has stayed in my purse ever since our EFT session two months ago.

 

Yesterday we drove up to Door County for a day-trip and the cherry blossoms were so beautiful!  I walked up and down the rows of trees smelling their sweet blossoms.  It was as I imagine Heaven would be.

Good breathing is so wonderful!

Relief from Back Pain:

"Hello Tom,

I was sitting behind you at the Soul Workshop on Saturday. ----- How is Linda?

It was a pleasure to meet you and you also helped me with my back. I was amazed that by going back 35 years, I was able to connect to the source of the pain, by asking the right question. Thank you.

Sincerely and gratefully,
C____ B____"

(During a break in a workshop, this client asked about EFT & back pain. After telling her about my disclaimers, a also informed her that I guarantee success or there is no charge for the session. I jokingly told her that even if we did a guick, 4 minute, free EFT session during the break I would give her that same guarantee.  The pain was in the very lower back, so I took her back to a money/bill payment issue prior to the onset of the pain. She focused very well and within minutes of EFT tapping the pain was gone.)

A Link'in recommendation from a Breast Cancer Survivor & EFT. 

Dawn N, a FORMER breast cancer victim posted this recommendation on my LinkdIn account. "Tom has great empathy and understanding of and for his clients. His gentle nature comes through as he uses his skill to hone in on the core problem. Tom his own unique system for quickly eliminating pain and distress."

In her last sentence,Dawn is referring to our method in which we can assure a client of success, enough that we can guarantee success or there is no charge for the session.

Constipation and Stomach Cramps

Subj: Arlene _____ Letter Regarding EFT

Hi Tom and Linda,

My letter regarding our EFT sessions is typed below.  If you want to make any adjustments or improvements, please feel free to do so.  Thanks so much for your help.

Arlene

EFT LETTER                                                                                        AUGUST 19, 2010

I took an EFT course several years ago and really tried to apply the tapping technique to problems I was encountering.  I did not get any results.

Tom Masbaum had an introductory class on EFT in the Spring of 2008 and I signed up for the class.  Many of the participants felt that they experienced different degrees of healing during this class.  Tom asked about bodily complaints and explained that if there were problems with a father or father-figure, digestive complaints could be connected to that.  Again I failed to get any results from the class.

Tom made an appointment to meet with me for a private session at a MacDonald's close to home.  We went through a series of questions and tapping to determine what was the cause of the constipation and stomach cramps I had been experiencing for as long as I could remember, even in my youth.  I was a confirmed user of laxatives and other pills to promote bowel movements but could never accomplish this normal function on my own. 

Tom asked me to bring up a memory of my father and I recalled that my grandfather had died when I was 11 years old.  This was the first wake I had attended.  I loved my grandfather and was very sad.  I went up to the floral arrangements to smell the beautiful flowers.  My dad flew into a rage and pulled me away from the flowers and started slapping me.  I hated flowers and the smell of flowers from that time onwards.  Tom and I worked on that and other memories and I felt the knot in my intestines loosen.  With Tom’s help I laughed at myself for smelling those lousy flowers.

The next day we went to a meeting and after the meeting, we were presented with a rose.  For the first time in over 60 years, the rose smelled wonderful to me and I was able to hold the flower and bring it home to enjoy its beauty.

I still had some memories of issues with my Dad that caused me some pain, so Tom made another appointment to help me clear up the emotions tied to these other issues, again all relating to a tempestuous relationship with my father.  We met at another Macdonald's.  I was not having pain as severe as I experienced before our first session and Tom was able to help me overcome some more very disturbing memories and even laugh at my role in the altercations.  I felt more releasing of the tension in my intestines.

Since working with Tom, I have had no further need for laxatives or other purgatives.  The stress and tension I was holding in my intestines has left me.  I guess this tapping does work.

---------------------------------------------------

PTSD:

"My name is Roderick Calloway and for over a year and a half I have been functioning at less than 70% of my normal energy level accompanied by a plethora of symptoms and no substantive answers from my health providers the Veterans Health Care.

I came upon EFT or rather EFT found me, from three different sources within a month of each other. I was extremely intrigued with the principle as it appeared to holistically connect the mind and the body. Over the pass six months I've experienced the efficacy of EFT in two separate areas, back pain, and PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder).

My experiences in Viet Nam as a helicopter pilot left quite a few mental scars. With the personal help of Tom Masbaum, I have significantly reduced my suffering, although I am by no means cured, I believe Tom has given me a tool I can use to continue my rehabilitation and for this, Tom, I truly thank you.

Sincerely, Yours My Friend,

Roderick Calloway

Ranson, West Virginia"

(EFT is wonderful for PTSD.  Roderick's ability to focus on the pieces of the helicopter crash memory helped him to relieve the pain fairly quickly. We also worked on memories of painful situations that arose later, indirectly related to having been injured in the crash.)

-----------------------------------------------------------

PTSD From An Accident: 

"Thank you so much for helping my sister Sandy this morning.  Tears of joy and gratitude filled my eyes as I saw her release the negative emotions she has carried with her since last years accident."

"This morning, before your session with her, she was in a very negative state.  Memories and fears related to the accident were consuming her.  After one session with you, she released it!  To hear her laugh again was such a treat for me.  Thank you so much Tom.  God Bless you!"

Sherry Jones"

(As all experienced EFT Practioners know, EFT works fantastically well on PTSD. In this phone EFT session we focused on the accident and then on then present day fears relating to the accident.  EFT is wonderful.)

85% Relief From A Physical Problem (Lower Colon Related)

From an email received on June 5, 2009.

"Here is some text for your website. Take care, Chris.

About a year ago I had a healing crisis that over the last 12 months would ebb and flow, some days a little better than others, but overall, things were getting worse. I intuitively knew I needed to do more to heal my body. The thing was, I had already tried just about everything I could find online or otherwise so was feeling like I'd come to the end of the line with nowhere to go. Then, a distant memory came to the forefront of my consciousness regarding EFT. I had read and downloaded some information about EFT a couple of years ago, tried it peripherally at that time, but basically had abandoned it/forgotten about it altogether. But here it was, on my mind once again. So I began to research once again, mostly online and found what I felt to be weighty recommendations from trusted sources, notably Dr. Mercola's website. After more looking around, I 'stumbled' on (read: was guided to...) Tom's website. I looked around and decided I had nothing to lose and contacted Tom for more information. This was on a weeknite at approx. 7:30PM PST. Much to my surprise, Tom called about a half hour later (10:00PM his time) and began speaking with me about my challenge and EFT and his practice etc. Before I knew it, we were off and running in to a full blown EFT session right then and there! Tom and I had a coupe of sessions, I got the hang of his technique, and after a couple more sessions on my own, my symptoms improved a minimum of 85% and have remained at that level now for approx. a full week. This experience has been unprecidented to say the least. I can't beleive the results - and I am so grateful for them! Let me be clear this was what seemed to be a 100% physical condition - and yet with no notable changes in my regime, after EFT, the condition has improved to nearly a complete healing. I can't say enough about Tom, EFT, or the potential here for anyone who needs help. Give it a try! I sure am glad I did!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE FOLLOWING ARE FEEDBACK COMMENTS SUBMITTED TO OUR WEB SITE ON THE "YOU TELL US" PAGE:

E.L.  --  Tom helped me heal over the death of my mother when I was 14. Within minutes of tapping, I no longer felt like I wanted to cry when I thought about her.

 F. S.,   --     My son was murdered almost 20 years ago and I could still feel a deep grief whenever his memory came up. In just a short, small part at the end of a session with Mr. Masbaum, he had me focus on what he called a "woulda/coulda/shoulda" on my part that comes up in mind. He said not to look for a particularly strong or weak "wish it didn't happen that way" memory, but to just watch for whatever memory or thought that comes up. I did think immediately of something that I wished I had not done just before the incident. I am a grown man of 70 who thought I had handled my son's murder fairly well years ago, but I burst into tears right there in the restaurant as I thought of that simple, tiny event that came up. He had me doing a little EFT tapping and the relief was immediate. I can sure see why Mr. Masbaum says that he loves what he does. I am truly grateful.

 LYDIA  --     It's hard to believe how calm I feel ever since our EFT session. I find it easier and easier to feel the love. Thank you, Tom. I can see why you love what you do.

 Mel  --     I was overcome with grief over a failed relationship that had ended and I can't express how grateful I am for Tom's help during our phone session. He guided me through a tearful EFT session with patience and compassion. Not only did I feel much lighter after our work, I was able to go out and continue a wonderful friendship with the woman I had broken it off with. I highly recommend EFT work with Tom. His warmth, generosity and intuition are a real gift and I know I'll return to work with him whenever other issues come up.

 Samantha L  --     I've had stomach issues all of my life (IBS, which in my case, is anxiety related). As of last September, my stomach pains have gotten much worse, to the point of extreme pain, extreme nausea, and inability to work. All I wanted to do was curl up in a little ball in my bed and sleep away the pain. After trying every natural resource from the health food store that my parents own, I decided it would be best to schedule an appointment with my doctor. After the numerous blood tests came back normal, and then the plethora of anti-anxiety medications didn't work, my general practitioner recommended that I see a stomach specialist. The specialist recommended a lower GI barium test, and the results showed nothing. So then he scheduled me for a gastroscopy, only to his surprise, he again found nothing. He then recommended that I try an anti-depressant, and suggested to see a psychiatrist. I hated his suggestion, b/c I knew I wasn't depressed or in need of any psychiatric help. I knew there was something wrong with me and there had to be an answer to my problems out there. I didn't know where to turn, only then asking the universe to give me the help that I needed. The next thing you know, a co-worker and very dear friend of mine suggested that I attend an EFT workshop in Homewood, IL at Insight Awareness the following week. Needless to say, I was intrigued, and I knew that this was the help I'd asked for. My husband and I attended the workshop together, and I can honestly say that afterwards, I felt so energized and full of love after I left! My husband and I stayed up talking almost all night about what an amazing technique we had discovered. And we were so grateful that we had learned about it together! This week I've been suffering from the worst stomach aches yet. So bad that the medication that alliviated the pain is now not helping at all. So, I called Tom and luckily, he fit me into his busy schedule and we had a phone session together. Tom guided me through healing my painful memories. And the results are nothing short of a miracle. Not only do I feel completely energized and fantastic about myself, my stomach does not hurt at all- it actually growled quite a bit in the middle of our session! And as I'm writing this, I can barely focus b/c I am so hungry, I am thinking about all of the things that I could make myself to eat to celebrate these amazing results! Tom is an angel that God and the universe have blessed me with. I am so thankful for Tom & his teachings b/c they have brought relief to me, and for that, I will be forever grateful. Everyone can lead a healthier, happier life if they just apply the Emotional Freedom Techniques. Thank you, Tom! Sending much love, joy & peace your way, my friend!

Hi Tom,

.....Things have been wonderful since we met with you.  I actually just got off the phone with both parents together and they are back to their same old inside jokes and bantering back and forth like I haven't heard in months and months.  Everyone sounds more relaxed.  It's amazing.  I do think they wanted to contact you about possibly arranging another session for the whole family to address sibling concerns.

I can't thank you enough!

Peace, love and joy :)

My Grief and feelings of guilt lessened a whole lot.  Thanks.

(Feelings of Grief for 15 years, and stress aches and backaches for the past couple of years.)  Aches are lessened & grief is lessened as well.  I flet a great sense of release after our class.  Thank you.  Actually, the feeling of grief is gone.  Wow.

In the first round of EFT my anxiety st arted at a 6 and I was able to have complete forgiveness. I felt a wonderful physical sensation of relief......... Thank you.

I had years of anxiety and fear and after the first EFT thing that we did those feelings were gone.  It straightened out a lot of things in my mind.
