I always tell this to my family and friends. I wish I had known tapping years ago when my kids were very little to get through those periods of stress and ups and downs in our lives. But, l guess better late than never.

I was diagnosed with glaucoma, iritis and cataract in my early twenties and I felt really devastated when I received the diagnosis. After being on different kinds of eye drops and oral steroids to treat my inflammation, my intra ocular pressures were still erratic and the cataract in my left eye completely clouded my vision. My ophthalmologist finally recommended surgery for me. It was a trabeculectomy (for maintaining my eye pressure) combined with removing the cataract and replacing with an intraocular lens to restore my vision. I have been doing really well since then, thanks to the wonderful ophthalmologist who did my surgery.

All those years when I used to go to the doctor’s office to check my eye pressure, I always had this fear of losing my vision.I am a big believer of homeopathy and years after my surgery, I consulted a homeopath for some health issues. When my homeopath explained to me how homeopathy treats the individual as a whole and different layers are peeled in the process  (a concept that resonates with EFT),to get to the core of the issue. She asked me several questions before she came up with a remedy. What was interesting was the questions led us to my deep rooted fear of losing my vision. After I took the remedy, within a few days I experienced a much clear vision.

I stumbled upon EFT five years ago and since then it has been a magical journey and transformation for me. When I look back at the time I got the diagnosis of glaucoma and other eye related problems, I can clearly make the connection between events that happened around that time in my life. I have tapped them all away now.

I regularly see my ophthalmologist to get my eyes examined. My pressure has been very stable in both eyes. During my last visit, my doctor checked my peripheral vision using a visual field test and commented that this is the best test results she had seen since morning. I always send love, light, and healing energy to my eyes and the lens implant while tapping. I am thankful to EFT for a healthy vision. Many times after tapping, I have experienced a sharper vision.

I took my son to see his ophthalmologist last week. My son was really nervous thinking about the air puff test and the device (used to check the eye pressure) touching his eyes. Tapping for a couple of minutes on the points setting an intention to relax, helped him to stay calm during the examination. Once again, a great feedback from the doctor that his pressures are normal. She also added that she couldn’t get the other children to relax in the same manner. Thanks to EFT, our lives get better and better everyday.

Do we need confidence in order to learn a skill or learning a skill gives us the confidence? I always used to think that the later was true.  When I was learning to drive, my thoughts were filled with fear, lack of confidence, and self doubt. I felt stuck. I kept telling myself that I will gain confidence after I become a skilled driver.  Only years later I realized that having the confidence that I can drive would have helped me learn the skill much faster.

Tapping helps you release the blocks to achieving confidence whether you are learning a new skill or trying to achieve mastery in an already existing skill. Tapping helps you move forward in the ladder of success.
