 EFT
 2012 Tappers Gathering
 Craig Weiner – www.chirozone.net
 Daimon Sweeney – www.eftsettings.com
 My Experience – EFT is amazingly effective.
 My Question - How does EFT work? This led to:
 ICE Method – www.icemethod.com
 This presentation
What You’ll Learn
1.
Emotions create molecules called peptides.
2. Peptides instruct our bodies.
3. Peptides glue our memories together.
4. And a little bit more.
Part One – Peptides Molecules and Emotions
How do you feel about “science?”
What’s the emotion?
Thoughts Create Peptides
 We make a peptide each time we have a thought
 The specific peptide corresponds to our specific emotion.
 (a peptides is a short protein string – made up of a
combination of amino acids.)
1. Peptides Instruct Our Cells
Science Note
 Via Peptides, the Body follows the Mind.
 Think a thought
 Make a peptide
 Instruct your body
 EFT = Emotional – Freedom - Technique
Part One – Peptides Molecules and Emotions

Let’s Get Calm
 For later use, let’s identify what’s not calm
 Use your science feeling or a more significant issue
 Emotion, Memory, or Physical
 Observe and Note
 Space between Points Method (Frank Kinslow)
Create Calm Peptides in a Calm State
 Cell membrane open. Cells rest, restore, and heal.
 “Even though….I love and accept myself.”
 Tapping is calming.
Calm &
Peace
Fight-or-Flight State
 Cell Membrane closes and moves into protection mode.
 Focus changes from long term health to immediate survival.
 We overuse this state
Note: Calm differs from Meditation
 Calm State allows mind to be engaged, but body to be
in rest and healing mode.

The tiger
 Is the tiger a real physical reality, a true threat to
your physical well being?
 If yes – fight/flight will trigger automatically
 If no – you can observe that the tiger is just in your
mind and return to calm state.
 This is a valuable distinction to learn and use for
health and well-being.
How can we expand the circle?

Part Two – Peptides and Memory
 In Part One we learned
 Every emotion we have creates a peptide in our bodies
 This peptide is the instruction for our body’s function
 We can create calm and peaceful peptides!
 This is a part of what makes EFT effective.
 In Part Two we will discover
 Peptides are the glue that holds our memories together
 Memories can be reglued
 We experience this with EFT, here’s the science.
Peptides Glue Our Memories
Science Note
 Via Peptides, the Body follows the Mind.
 Think a thought
 Make a peptide
 Instruct your body
 EFT = Emotional – Freedom - Technique
Memories Wired Together by Emotion
Memories Can be Reglued?
 Pause
 Consider
 Absorb
 Reconsider our old idea that the emotions of our
memories are forever.
 Reconsider that the only way around old traumas is
to build new habits, new neural pathways.
 We know this happens in EFT. Here is the scientific
neurochemistry of the process.
Memories Can be Reglued!
 Recalled Memories become “labile,” or fragile.
 Recalled Memories must be “reconsolidated”
 Intervene with a different emotional state and the
emotional content of memories can be permanently
replaced.
 This awareness was only scientifically discovered in
2004.
Memory Reconsolidation -3 Steps
1.
Become aware of the memory of an event, an
emotion, or a physical sensation that is not calm.
The associated peptides that glue this memory are
now activated, in tech terms, the memory is now
“labile.” This peptide glue must now be replaced.
Memory Reconsolidation Complete
Memory Reconsolidation –Step 2
2. Enter the Calm State
If nothing is done, the old peptide recreates the old
emotion, which creates more of the same peptide.
If we intervene with the calm state, calm peptides
are created and become available to replace the old
peptide.
Tapping, like the calm state exercise, can create an
alternative emotional state.
New Peptide
Memory Reconsolidation –Step 3
3. Observe the old memory again.
The calm peptide replaces the old glue.
Memory remains, emotional glue peptide has been
replaced with a peptide of calm and peace.
The back and forth of tapping, between old state
and new acceptance replaces peptides.
Check Your Issue
 Observe the issue you identified at the beginning of
this talk.



Is the emotion the same or different?
Is the physical sensation the same or different?
Is the charge on the memory the same or different?

This is how we expand the circle!

Memory Reconsolidation Resource
Permanence
 Memory Reconsolidation is believed to be
permanent.
 The only way known to science to change the
emotion of a memory is through an exchange
process.
 If you don’t do anything intentional to a memory, the
emotion stays the same. Once its calm, why would
you want to change it later?
 I believe this is the neuroscience of what happens
when EFT effects permanent changes.
Part 3 – Practice and Issues

The Peptides –created by our emotions.
Calm State – Peptides of calm and peace

Why Gary Craig insists we focus on the negative
Fibromyalgia Study Results and questions
Peptides and the Quantum Field.
If a thought that weighs nothing,
creates a peptide that weighs something,
what’s going on?
Why we focus on the negative.
 We activate negative emotions so they become fragile
and can be replaced via memory reconsolidation.
Positive can be a work-around
Take care with the positive:
 When we focus on the positive we are not replacing
negative emotional peptide glue.
 The positive creastes new neural pathways which
build brain pathways AROUND the old emotion.
 Essentially the positive focus creates a new habit.
 A habit is not the same as calm – it takes ongoing
energy to maintain.
Core Issue
 This distinction between working on the negative
versus building the positive relates to:


EFT’s discovery of core issues.
EFT’s Personal Peace Procedure
Fibromyalgia Study
 39 Patients – single session only.
 Frida Fibromyalgia Center, Portland, OR.
 Sessions followed regular medical appointments.
 Session lasted 15 to 90 minutes.
 Fall, 2012.
Fibromyalgia Patient Pain Levels
Fibromyalgia Study Results
Study Observations
 For those who entered calm state – pain went to zero
for 80% of patients in their single session.
 Relief turned out to be temporary for most.
 Most patients did not answer my calls or emails
asking for follow-up information and offering followup sessions.
 WHY?
What Happened?
 In Calm State, and using memory reconsolidation,
patients experienced pain relief.
 Upon return to daily environment they were likely
confronted with fight/flight situations again and
body returned to fibromyalgia symptoms.
 Why didn’t patients seek out the further sessions I
offered to them?
Fight or Flight
 The two point calm exercise is a way to transition a
person from an activated emotional state
(fight/flight) to a calm state.
 Ironically, when you’re in fight/flight mode, calm
doesn’t appear as a solution, it appears as a danger.
 How would being calm help you get away from the
tiger?
The tiger
 Is the tiger a real physical reality, a true threat to
your physical well being?
 If yes – fight/flight will trigger automatically
 If no – you can observe that the tiger is just in your
mind and return to calm state.
 This is a valuable distinction to learn and use for
health and well-being.

How to Make Healing Last?
 Science –
 The interface between the material world and the energetic
world is peptides.
 Do EFT or any process that activates memory reconsolidation.
 Become aware of connection to Quantum Field– to All
 Spirit –
 Do EFT or any process that activates memory reconsolidation.
 Peace of God –
 Love of Neighbor –
 No difference between Source and Self and “Others.”
