placebo.jpg   For the life of me, I don’t understand why everyone isn’t jumping up and down with excitement about the placebo effect.  If we can cure diseases and erase problems merely by thinking we are well, then what does that say about the power of belief?  It says we are able to heal ourselves merely by changing our perceptions!

Although some argue that the placebo effect is purely psychological, there is strong evidence that is not true.  Dr. Bruce Lipton, in his book The Biology of Belief, explains exactly why a placebo not only affects the psychology, but also the physiology.  The information taken from our environment through the body’s receptors (skin, eyes, ears, nose, tongue) is interpreted by our perceptions.  Perceptions, in essence, tell the body how to respond to the factors in the environment.  If the person believes they are receiving a beneficial drug, the chemical responses sent to the affected area tell the cells that help is on the way!  The body responds exactly the way it would if drugs were there because it is releasing everything needed to react to that belief.  The immune system kicks into high gear, because it has been told to do so by the person’s beliefs.  Remarkably, the person finds themselves healed…not due to a drug, but due to the belief in the healing power of the drug which triggered the immune system to heal itself!  The placebo effect, in fact, may be responsible for healing in well over half of the people who take medications.

Have you ever seen a person who spent 20 years being overweight, but suddenly lost 30 pounds just because he or she was going to a class reunion and wanted to look good?  Have you ever seen a smoker who has smoked for 40 years who suddenly quit after being told he was going to die if he continued?  Have you ever seen an actor who “became” the role they were playing…not only in personality, but also in body?  (Think of Will Smith as Ali, Rene Zellwegger as Bridget Jones or Tom Hanks in Castaway.) Have you heard about spontaneous remission or people who got up off the death bed and went on to live well into old age?  Did you know there are documented cases where people with multiple personality disorder not only changed personalities as they switched from one identity to the next, but also changed physical characteristics, like eye color, within minutes of becoming one or the other?  (Check out Dr. Lipton's book to verify this.)  Do you wonder how they were able to do this?  Some call it willpower.  Others call it luck.  Most people don’t know what label to put on it.  No matter what we name it, how can we just ignore this?  Obviously, if one person can do this there is something to it.  These are all demonstrations of how changing our beliefs changes our reality…not just in mind, but also in body.

When you decide to take charge and start living from your present awareness rather than from the same old repetitious, programmed perceptions, everything changes.  Since approximately 70% of our daily thoughts are negative, it is no wonder we have so many problems and illnesses in our lives.  We must replace those beliefs with ones that better serve us.  How? 

Erase the old tapes and start playing better-serving ones!  Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is one of the fastest and best ways to do this.  Need evidence that it works?  Go to www.tryitoneverything.com and order the movie/book and see for yourself.  Visit www.emofree.com and read the thousands of reports.  Ask me!  I’m living proof!  Go to http://www.youtube.com/mcgolf7 and listen to me talk about it.

Drug companies would be more than happy to get rid of the idea of the placebo effect, but it’s too late.  The word is out and more and more incredible stories are being shared about the power to heal ourselves.  It’s all in what we believe.

If you have old, non-serving beliefs running in the background of your life, and you now realize they are controlling your current behaviors, there is something you can do about it.  Energy can be manipulated and reprogrammed.  Nothing does this better than EFT!

Change your beliefs and you can change your life!  It’s time the world woke up to understand we have that ability.

Keep Tapping Anyway!
Thursday, 03 February, 2011 08:33 AM
At the conclusion of a typical Meta-ET ™ session, you will feel free,
empowered, loved, grateful and blissful. Not bad, huh? This is a huge
difference from many other healing methods that might leave you feeling
“better” or “at peace.” Generally, when a client leaves a Meta-ET ™
session, he/she is robustly laughing and feeling on top of the world. There
have been occasions when a client has literally skipped out the door,
blowing kisses, laughing hystericall [...]

Denial Is Water Under the Bridge
Monday, 22 February, 2010 09:12 PM
 I am currently attending a weekly study group focused on Remote Viewing/Remote Influencing.  We are practicing the techniques prescribed in Gerald O’Donnell’s courses, although there are many other RV/RI teachers.  I particularly enjoy O’Donnell because he incorporates a great deal of metaphysics in his training. This Wednesday, our group will open by discussing some of the more “controversial” aspects of what O’Donnell espouses about reality.  I understand this [...]

Joe Vitale and Me
Sunday, 01 March, 2009 12:10 PM
I went to San Marcos (Texas) last night to check out the Awakening Conference.  Dr. Joe Vitale was scheduled to speak at 8:00 that evening.  As always, I took a pile of "Try It On Everything" DVDs with me, to hand out to speakers...always doing what I can to spread the word!  My husband and I decided to run into Starbucks to grab a cup of hot tea, before Joe spoke.  As I turned the corner, there he sat...Joe, I mean.  I reintroduced myself to him (we've met several times [...]

One Shot
Monday, 26 January, 2009 09:10 AM
   I was so humbly honored and blown away, yesterday, to discover I had been chosen as the first recipient of the Mystery Spotlight Winner award on Jason’s Network.  I do all I can to contribute to the network site, because I truly appreciate being a member.  You see, Jason’s Network is a unique social network…different from the competition due to his focused interaction with the members and his drive to see that the group’s integrity is always honored.  No [...]

Locating Core Issues
Tuesday, 20 January, 2009 12:42 PM
   I enjoyed listening to Dr. Garland Landrith speak, the past couple of days, and it was nice to see so many people in our community are open to EFT (Emotinal Freedom Techniques) and thoughts on the quantum field.  We had somewhere over 65 people in attendance, and the audience was very enthusiastic and open.  I trust many people learned a great deal while he was here in New Braunfels.  I was especially pleased to hear that Dr. Landrith wants to pr [...]

Faith Healers
Friday, 09 January, 2009 08:45 AM
    Some people go from one person to another, seeking healing.  Sometimes this is done for years, to no avail.  What they don’t realize is that every time they move faith from one person or one technique to another, they are only making things worse.  They are compiling more and more evidence that “this stuff doesn’t work.”  Let’s get clear on this idea.  All healing comes from within the self. If healing is not happening, it is d [...]

Mastering Miracles
Wednesday, 07 January, 2009 10:16 AM
“Contrary to what many people think, it is not the thing that is believed in that brings an answer to a person’s prayer.  Prayers are answered when the individual’s subconscious mind responds to the mental picture or thought in his or her mind.” –Dr. Joseph Murphy, D.R.S., Ph.D, D.D., L.L.D.–   Studying the subconscious mind is fascinating.  It is in that part of the brain we store our beliefs.  There is such extraordinary power in our beliefs–if we do [...]

Do Unto Others
Monday, 29 December, 2008 08:49 AM
   “As we do unto others, we do unto ourselves.” I think the Golden Rule is misunderstand.  Most people translate the words to mean we should treat others the way we want to be treated.  I believe it is saying far more than that.  I believe it is telling us that it is impossible to project our feelings on another person, because everyone we believe to be outside the self is really a mirror image of it.  The negative behaviors we don’t like in o [...]

EFT and Metaphysics
Friday, 19 December, 2008 11:39 AM
   I love working with people, using Emotional Freedom Techniques.  Each practitioner has a different method–a unique way they offer their skills.  I use metaphysics in combination with EFT.  Many times, clients have asked me how I get to core issues so easily.  I thought, today, I would explain exactly how this is done.  You, too, of course, can do this for yourself. As soon as the client sets up an appointment, I start to work.  I get out all the not [...]

How to Locate and Remove Non-Serving Beliefs
Thursday, 18 December, 2008 08:40 AM
   Funny how we are able to attract certain things into our lives, but not others.  Ever wonder why?  Take me as an example.  It’s easy for me to find parking places–they seem to magically show up wherever I go–but I have a hard time getting to the weight I want to be.  The problem is, of course, those underlying beliefs.  When something is easy to attract, it is because I expect it to be!  I have no evidence that whisper [...]

Bargain Basement!!!
Thursday, 18 December, 2008 08:39 AM
   Recently, I had an experience that was so upsetting, I had to stop and think about what spiritual gurus have been teaching, as of late.  It seems like, ever since the movie, The Secret, came out, everybody and their dog has jumped on the bandwagon to offer some type of book or program or workshop that can teach you how to make a million dollars practically overnight.  For most people, however, it isn’t working.  I know I get one email after another, every single day [...]

Phone's Ringing. It's For You. Life's Calling
Tuesday, 02 December, 2008 07:44 AM
   When I work with my clients, using EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), I constantly ask them to check-in with their bodies.  I want to know how the body is reacting to the emotions they are feeling.  There is a reason this is necessary. For the biggest part of every day, we go about our business completely oblivious to the inner dialogue (the voice that is talking in the head).  And sadly, 70% of that dialogue is negative.  Is it any wonder our bodies respo [...]

Using EFT to Reclaim Unconditional Love
Tuesday, 25 November, 2008 07:31 AM
   Often, when I’m working with an EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) client, we end up discussing the relationship he/she had with the parents.  It usually begins with the client consciously believing he/she was loved by the parents, but what I sometimes discover is that the love came with “conditions,” creating a subconscious belief of being unlovable.  Often, these people spend their entire lives trying to win the love of others, never really believing it is pos [...]
