A.R.E. Meeting for 6/4/18

We met. We meditated. We read in A Search for God Book II. We read "Spiritual Desires" in the Desire chapter and discussed the reading.

We read in the accompanying Experiments in Practical Spirituality book, pages 46 - 47.

Our experiment on page 47 is: Be aware each day of how past desire patterns have created or led you to specific conditions which you count as blessings. Use this remembrance as an aid to keep a hopeful attitude toward the future fulfillment of spiritual desire you now hold.

We tried to focus on the ASFG lessons the first hour of our meeting and use the second hour to socialize and share our lives with one another.

I, June, am leading the meetings for the month of June. During our social hour, I distributed hand-outs on an Introduction and History of Meridian Tapping.

Meridian Tapping, to me, is one of the greatest health processes I've learned about since learning about massage in the 70s. I personally quit smoking without any withdrawal using Meridian Tapping in a form called EFT, the Emotional Freedom Technique.

 I am not a skilled teacher or trainer of Meridian Tapping, but an enthusiast. I gained the groups' permission to share some information during part of our June meetings. There are some books and e-books at the library on tapping. Barnes & Noble carries Nick Ortner's Tapping books and can order them. There are videos on YouTube showing the various tapping sequences. Nick Ortner made a video about Meridian Tapping back in 2007 or so. I have not seen it, but I'd like to. Nick and his sister, Jessica, and some friends have organized annual Tapping World Summits since about 2009. They just had the 2018 Tapping World Summit. You can go to www.TappingWorldSummit.com  for more information and to buy CD sets of the Summit which has various tapping professionals giving presentations.

At the June 11  ASFG meeting I will begin with sharing a CD with presenter Carol Look, LCSW, DCH, EFT Master discussing an Introduction to EFT/Meridian Tapping. It will take about 45 - 60 minutes and then we will proceed with an abbreviated regular ASFG meeting.

At the June 18 meeting we will hear Julie Schiffman speak on How our Emotions Affect Our Health: Case Studies in Meridian Tapping. In her talk Julie does a sequence on tapping to eliminate neck pain, tapping to eliminate hip pain and tapping to eliminate migraines. Again, we will have an abbreviated ASFG meeting the 2nd hour.

For the June 25 meeting I have chosen a talk by Brad Yates, Being the Change: Your Profound Impact On the World. This CD is very inspiring and discusses how tapping is being used worldwide. An abbreviated ASFG meeting will follow.

(Note: these CD's are from the 2010 World Summit collection that I have borrowed from a friend and are not mine to lend.)

Please join us to hear these speakers and/or search on your own for books, CD's, videos and trained Meridian Tapping or EFT teachers or practitioners and learn this very powerful and useful technique.
