Use EFT To Get a Divorce From Your Parents
When it's time for the holidays or a family reunion do you cringe at the thought, but go anyway? Your mom will find fault with your hair, your job or the way you are bringing up your kids. Your dad might pick a fight with you or boast about how much money your brother makes while you are barely getting by. You know that you will have a terrible time and perhaps eat too much or drink to dull the pain. When I ask clients to tell me who in their life has had the most negative effect on them that is still a problem, the majority replies either mom or dad.

Relationships: Don't Settle For Less Than the Best
Do you settle for relationships with people because you secretly believe that you can't do better? I once knew a wonderful and loving minister who used to tell a story about one of his parishioners who came to him for guidance. She was a lovely woman who was having trouble financially. She told the minister about her low paying job and how she could barely pay her bills each month. The minister took a twenty-dollar bill out of his pocket and offered it to her. She recoiled, saying that she couldn't possibly accept it.

How to Parent Your Adult Child
In the last few years I have created a new niche in my practice, counseling parents of adult "children." Perhaps it is a result of the fact that people are living longer that my clients are often over 65 and are as frustrated over their relationships with their grown-up sons and daughters as they were when their offspring were toddlers or teens. Although society has many rituals to celebrate the rites of passage into adulthood such as graduation from school, bar mitzvahs, and weddings, we have no way to demarcate the passage from "child" to adult within the family.

Stop Me Before I Love Again
Do you fall in love with the same person over and over again? The name may change, but when the honeymoon ends you find yourself in the same old rut with the same problems you had before. Even if you have a PhD and tell yourself that you know better, there you go again.

Restaurant Therapy For Overeaters
If you are a compulsive overeater you may have mixed feelings about eating out in restaurants. Although you enjoy eating, perhaps you feel fearful about being tempted to consume certain foods you love that you believe are "bad" because they lead to binge eating. Your inner dialogue sounds like this: I love this food so much that I don't think I can eat just one portion. If I eat it I will continue to eat too much. If I do, I am bad so I might as well keep eating since I have already "blown it." Afterwards I will hate myself, and vow to never do it again.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Gloria Arenson
Peace on earth can start at your fingertips.My dream is to teach the world to use EFT. I envision a world where teachers use this method to help their studens learn better, doctors help patients cope with pain and fear, and families tap together to resolve anger, and frustration so they can communicate better. Imagine a world where people take a few minutes each day to eliminate anger, fear, worry pain and grief. We will see less violence and more love.
