New Horizons: The Promise of Energy Psychology
Psychologist Roger Callahan tells a fascinating anecdote about a patient he calls Mary. Around 1980, they were working together on her intense, life-long phobia of water. He’d been working with her for about a year and had tried every conventional therapy he could think of. She’d gotten a little better, but not much. One day, as they were working in sight of a swimming pool, she complained of nausea and upset stomach. Callahan had been studying Chinese medicine and had learned that one of the end points of the stomach meridian is at the bone just unde eath each eye.

Grief, Loss and Resolution
When someone we love dies, a feeling of deep, painful grief is a natural and common response. Actually, grief can be triggered by the loss of anything we value, anything in which we have invested time, energy, a part of ourselves--a job, a work of art, a beloved pet. People who are divorcing are often surprised (and appalled) by the depth of their grief, unless they realize that what they are mou ing is not the angry battleground that the relationship has become but the dream they still cherish of what might have been.
