Phobias – How EFT Can Help

Some Common Phobias

Flying Phobias

These are a good example. I have cleared a flying phobia, caused initially by experiencing extreme turbulence, in ten minutes. I've cleared more complicated phobias in three sessions.
I once had three flight phobias to work on within a couple of weeks and they all had a very similar theme. Looking for what was going on in the clients'; lives at the time the phobia started showed that, in every case, it coincided with the birth of their first child.

One man was flying for business and therefore didn't have his child with him. The big issue for him was, what would happen to his child if something happened to him? This linked to fears about how good a parent he would be, given his own disturbed childhood. We cleared some childhood issues and these fears. After that, clearing the times that flying was a problem, right from booking a ticket to landing back in the UK, was simple. I had a lovely card from Japan to say that he'd arrived safely and enjoyed the flight!

The other two people were mothers whose fear was that if the plane crashed with them and their child on board, they couldn't keep them safe. They were carrying a lot of guilt about whether they were good mothers and when we cleared that, the rest was easy.

A case quite recently turned out to be linked to the fact that the client had just lost her husband when she took her first flight, and her subconscious had linked that fear and misery, the ‘‘I don't know if I can survive without him,’’ to flying. The result was that every time she flew, she went back into that fear space. We cleared the blocked grief and the phobia cleared too.

Spider Phobias

Spider phobias are often about the looks of spiders or the amount of legs they have. One client said to me, ‘‘nothing should have that many legs!’’ It can be to do with their speed or the way they move. There may have been an originating incident, but it may be before memory, or have been picked up from family members.

Often, just focusing on these aspects and clearing them will clear the phobia. Sometimes, detective work is needed though. With one client, we discovered that the fear was actually about spiders’ webs. A memory came up for the client, while we were tapping, of going into his granddad's shed when he was five and walking into a spider's web. He didn't know what it was, and of course he couldn't get rid of it, so it stuck to him and he was terrified. We cleared the incident and the phobia cleared too.

All phobias respond well to EFT, from agoraphobia, which usually has an enormous number of aspects needing detailed investigation, to phobias of being sick, fear of frogs, snakes and other animals and insects and the many more phobias that there are. It just needs detective work and patience, though often results can be achieved with simple phobias in one session.
