I am doing a free Zoom webinar on February 6, 2023 using EFT to support healing from eating disorders. I had anorexia when I was younger (in my teenage years). I was hospitalized twice (once when I was in grade seven and once when I was in grade nine). I realize now that I am a highly sensitive person and that my anxiety fueled my addiction as a young person. I know Emotional Freedom Technique is easy to learn and is effective for treating anxiety. I have managed my anxiety using EFT as well as other things like magnesium and l-theanine. Addictions are a grave problem in our world to manage and EFT is a simple tool that can be learned and applied when you are working to overcome an addiction. My hope is that people with eating disorders will find it helpful in their recovery process. I wanted to mention an excellent book to that talks about anorexia. It is called “The Complete Dictionary of Ailments and Diseases” by Jacques Martel. The section on Anorexia nervosa is spot on. It talks about the underlying thoughts, feelings and emotions at the root of illnesses. Jacques writes that Anorexia is characterized by complete rejection of life. It is the unconscious desire to escape from life, to detest and reject myself because I am experiencing an extreme fear of opening myself to the marvelous life around me. I am hoping to write a book in the future and expand on some of these ideas in Jacque Martels book in order to help others struck in the trap of anorexia. I have definitely experienced a lot of fear in my life that I have had to overcome and I am not finished yet. I have not relapsed since I was 21 years old. I hope by working on a book about anorexia that I will continue to help others struggling with it. I hope to work with other patients struggling with eating disorders using my EFT and counseling service which is on special for $99 for the hour at Parallel Wellness clinic in downtown Calgary.
