Here is a classic weight loss case by EFT Contributing Editor Dr. Carol Look. Please notice that Carol's client (Gail) made no progress with her weight problem UNTIL she collapsed many emotional issues. These emotional issues, of course, caused Gail's ANXIETY which, in turn, drove her to overeat as a means of tranquilizing her emotional unrest. Carol provides us with the details behind this case (much of it in Gail's words) and includes some of the important languaging used. Also note how Gail's Fibromyalgia faded to near zero. We see this type of improvement often after core emotional issues have been resolved with EFT.
