Guest guest Posted September 20, 2003 Report Share Posted September 20, 2003 Yes, I have forwarded my wife some articles. We're not sure what to make of all this. On the one hand, she takes synthroid and on the other we eat so many soy-based products it's ridiculous. Worse, if she'd go off soy, what the hell could she eat? it's puzzling. She seems to be doing fine as is, though. We'll keep researching.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 Hi all who have pain and to Jeanette especially, http://www.emofree.com/newcomer.htm I have found this site especially helpful in easing of pain disorders that may or may not be caused by physiological or psychological factors. The technique is called EFT. I am relatively new to the concept so if there are any others that can put their 10 cents in feel free. All the information is available on the site to get started on a self help method and to get in contact with practitioners in your locality. I know money is a bit tight right now (http://www.emofree.com/freestuff.htm) but there are so many factors in peoples lives that hinder them in going raw. I have been 100% raw for a few months now after starting a in May last. I have used EFT for cravings and Pain and other emotional issues that have cropped up in the process of healing. http://www.emofree.com/addiction.htm I think that this technique should be used by everyone, raw or not and is definitely a way of helping on those " Low Days " . It is very strange for the first time but it takes so little time once you get accustomed to it that you can do a session in a matter of a couple minutes. this small amount of time does not affect its usefulness Jeanette just go through the website for many examples of illnesses that are related to your own and importantly others as well as they are showing the many facets of healing that this technique has to offer. Take care Seán > " Smith, Jeanette " <jeslaw wrote: > That's so encouraging.
