The Writings on my Wall

Cravings and Addictions

Do you have any? How did we get them? Why can't we let go? What are the core issues, the underlying causes?

How do we get rid of them?

Is it that we are bombarded over the airwaves with straight-forward in-your-face and subliminal covert advertising? Lied to on a daily basis about what is healthy for us. Giant corporations more concerned about their profits than our safety. Our government? They wouldn't do that, but do we hear about the 61 average yearly deaths due to E coli in beef? No, the government runs the beef industry. But its OK to shut down the spinach industry, which I totally agree with till the problem is solved and no other loved one has to give up their life when companies start to stop following procedures. But why isn't it a level playing field? Not going to go there now.

Most of us know when we're addicted, the craving starts and boom, we're back in line at Starbuck's, we'll cut back to 4 cups a day as soon as the week is over, down to 3 packs a day after the winter, one more burger from the corporate clown or the other clown with the big head. Are his commercials annoying or what? Why would anyone go there after watching one of them? Diet starts in January along with the gym membership, soon to end in February. Stress, stress, stress, the fixes are quick, cheap and easy. But are they? I think we all have a gut feel about what is good for us and what is not but its so easy to research the internet and find some guru or no-name that will justify our actions, approve our food, drink or drug of choice and then everything is OK. Why don't more people ask themselves, what are the underlying issues? How do we relieve the underlying fears, anxiety, guilt, shame, loneliness and emotional pain? (and you thought you were just buying a cup of coffee,) It goes a little deeper than that.

EFT is here to save the day!

EFT is the perfect tool to address every angle of an "addiction" or unwanted habit since it can target and treat immediate cravings, withdrawal symptoms, the underlying driving feelings, and potential relapse situations.

Peace, Love and Understanding,
