Anyone or all of the approaches discussed in this newsletter could substantially and positively change your life or the lives of your clients. A. ALTAFFER, TOM: THE RELEASING TECHNIQUE This manual discusses a simple healing method that evolves from the instant Be Set Free Fast method developed by Larry Nims. However, it focuses more on the lack of love that many people experience when they have emotional problems. The manual discusses ways to heal negative emotions, limiting beliefs, judgments, trauma and post traumatic stress conditions.. It distinguishes between ordinary and deep, limiting beliefs and details the important role of self-concept, self-esteem and self-image and gives specific indicators for them and how to use the Releasing Technique (RT) for all of them. The manual goes on to describe the use of RT with couples, children and the mentally retarded and how to install positive beliefs and core states. There are separate sections on RT and spirituality, finding fearlessness, anger, toxins, special problems with men, blocking beliefs, financial freedom and work. There are a number of sections on relationships with oneself, social relationships and committed relationships. The manual has a number of useful protocols on a variety of topics. Finally, it discusses the role of muscle testing, biofeedback, heart rate variability, galvanic skin response and voice stress analysis and offers healing phrase and prayer installation B. ARENSON, GLORIA: 5 SIMPLE STEPS TO EMOTIONAL HEALING This book on meridian energy therapy is designed as a simple tool kit for emotional healing filled with many case examples that are easy to read and understand. The 5 simple steps to emotional healing are basically the steps that Gary Craig set forth in his presentation of the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) which in turn is a condensation and simplification of Roger Callahan’s Thought Field Therapy Approach (TFT). After discussing the 5 simple steps the book describes 7 more ways to use this energy meridian therapy also referred to as tap dancing as tapping the energy meridian points is the method used. The book elaborates with many examples on how to tap away stress and negative emotions, end performance anxiety, overcome procrastination and how to be free from fear forever. The book then describes a way to conquer cravings and compulsions, dissolve panic attacks before they start, heal traumas and painful memories, boost your physical health and well-being and enhance your self-esteem. Then the C. FRIEDMAN, PHILIP: INTEGRATIVE HEALING MANUAL This manual first describes the COPERS and BETSI-HI model of Well-Being followed by a section on motivation and the 7 step re-empowerment process. This is followed by sections on the 12 step creation and manifestation process; the 7 step alphabet of change; the 11 step forgiveness process; and processes for working with the 5 subscales of well-being: emotional stability; self-esteem/self-confidence; joyfulness; sociability and happiness. Then there is a section on 30 daily lessons for creating high levels of well-being. A variety of energy and spiritual healing techniques are next discussed such as the Creating, Allowing and Receiving Technique (CART); the Miracle Acupressure Tapping Technique (MATT-Versions 1, 2 and 3) which includes the Psychological Uplifter, the Brain Balancer or 9 Gamut Technique and the Forgiveness Affirmations. This is followed by the MATT Parts Integration Technique (MMPIT) developed by Lynne Namka; the Acupressure Chakra Technique (ACT) and the Tap and Soft Touch Energy Technique (TASTE). The next section of the manual describes the Healing and Release Technique (HEART) and the Light Imagery Grateful Heart Technique (LIGHT). Finally the manual presents and describes the Secrets of Wealth, Wisdom and Well-Beings, Parts 1 through 5. D. JOSEPH, DAN: INNER HEALING: A SPIRITUAL PROCESS This delightful, engaging, practical and yet profound little book is inspired by and closely related to some key themes of A Course in Miracles. Basically the book teaches 3 steps for inner healing: acknowledging one’s dark, limiting, negative thoughts and feelings; offering those dark thoughts and feelings to God or a higher power and becoming willing to release them; and opening to an inner experience of comfort and love.In chapter 1 for example is the following short prayer: “God here are my dark thoughts. They are causing me pain. I am angry at this person. Frightened about that situation. And I feel guilty because I see myself as a failure. These thoughts and feelings are hurting me. I give them to you. Thank you for your comfort and healing” The book then explores each of these steps in detail with examples, imagery, practices etc..Then “Inner Healing” explores some advanced techniques based on this simple 3 step formula. It is clearly written, down to earth, useful and uplifting generating a comforting, warm feeling in the reader. Although “Inner Healing” is must read for A Course in Miracles” students because it is written in a direct, concise, engaging and soothing style anyone on a path of energy or spiritual healing will find the material valuable for their personal and spiritual growth. E. MOUNTROSE, PHILLIP: AWAKEN TO YOUR TRUE PURPOSE The 5 "Awaken to Your True Purpose" audios by Philip Mountrose uses the Michael and Gurdjieff material and 25 years of professional and personal life experience to explore a massive and profound subject, embracing your essential nature and divine purpose. The channelled Michael material in particular is profound in its depth and scope and deserves a much wider audience than it has previously received, which is what Philip Mountrose is offering on these tapes. However, this information is primarily for those who are seriously committed to understanding themselves in a deeper way and finding their true purpose through the very innovative system of overleaves, including role, goal, mode and attitude, chief features, centers, body types etc. that the Michael and Gurdjieff material presents. etc.. The information on these tapes is very comprehensive, thorough and informative although for some it may seem somewhat overwhelming at times. In that case for the dedicated and curious learner there are many fascinating books on the Michael teachings that explore the topic further and also include the important material on soul levels not included on these tapes. For those ready for something new, innovative and profound these 5 audiotapes might be just what you are looking for. F. WELLS, STEVE AND LAKE, DAVID: POCKET GUIDE TO EMOTIONAL FREEDOM This essential guide provides a rapid entree into the world of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), with everything you need to know to get started in using EFT to change your life, packed into a compact format that will allow it to be taken with you and consulted as necessary. Despite its size however, the authors have crammed the guide with useful information. The Pocket Guide provides step by step instructions for applying EFT to emotional issues, and also gives the reader some key distinctions for addressing problems and aspects. Specific examples are given for treating fears and phobias. There are also useful guidelines for using EFT to assist in treating relationship issues, physical issues, working with your own children, and achieving your ultimate goals of personal transformation. One very useful section of the Pocket Guide is the chapter on dealing with unconscious negative beliefs that can block treatment effectiveness. The authors provide a listing of the typical blocking (negative) beliefs, along with guidelines for addressing these beliefs using the EFT technique. This Pocket Guide is an excellent self-help resource as well as a great follow-up tool for clients. It offers a readily accessible guide to using the EFT technique in a simple, easy to read format.

G. INTEGRATED ENERGY THERAPY-STEVEN THAYER Recently I took the Master Instructor training for INTEGRATED ENERGY THERAPY (IET) conducted by the founder of IET Steven Thayer in New Jersey (see http://www.centerofbeing.com). Like all previous IET trainings it was excellent. I am now authorized to not only conduct IET therapy sessions which I am doing but also to run IET workshops and trainings. In this very powerful and uplifting training we learned all 3 IET energy attunements, how to admininister these energy attunements during the various IET trainings/seminars and more extensively how to work with integrated energy and angelic energy. Last Fall (2001) I took my first excellent workshop on INTEGRATED ENERGY THERAPY (IET) conducted by Mike Warner and Rita Mauter at the Center for Human Integration in Philadelphia, Pa. USA.. Here is what I said about it. “INTEGRATED ENERGY THERAPY (IET) which is a hands on approach, usually done on a massage table, was developed by Stevan Thayer with the assistance of his angelic guide, Ariel. Stevan is the co-author of the book “Interview with an Angel” and more recently “The Healing Angels of the Energy Field”. Stevan Thayer holds a master's degree from Columbia University in electrical engineering, was a former Bell Labs engineer and is a Reiki Master. He reports that he treated many clients using Reiki who had energy blockages that he felt Reiki alone did not clear. Stevan also discovered, like many others, in part by accident and in part by divine intuition, that there was a correlation between the emotions his clients felt during the healing sessions and specific parts of the body, i.e., different parts of the body are likely to store different feelings. From this observation Stevan developed the IET Cellular Memory Map. There are 9 IET integration or power points. When activated by the IET energy vibration, these points trigger, release and clear deeply held emotions, fears and traumas held in the body. IET works directly with the Cellular Memory Map: for example in IET: the top of the head correlates with guilt; the third eye with distrust; the kidney area with fear; the liver with anger and unforgiveness and the throat/lungs area with shame. Some of these body areas and their corresponding emotions are similar to other systems and some are not. IET works, however, with 4 basic energy fields around the body: the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels. Before engaging in IET participants learn the uplifting and powerful angelic and human "Heartlinking" process and receive energy attunements. The Heartlinking process and energy attunements alone are very healing. The IET process has 4 steps: energizing; trigerring; pull-out-releasing and integrating. The energize step is similar to Reiki and the release step is similar in many ways to clearing in Pranic healing. In the trigger step light pressure is applied to the integration points. During the integrating step the facilitator imprints a positive state of energy into the client. For example, innocence replaces guilt and trust replaces distrust. IET has three levels of training. The basic training is a one-day class, in which I received an attunement to the first IET energy ray, learned the energetic Cellular Memory Map, learned to locate the IET power points and practiced on other participants. During the second day, the Intermediate level, I learned the second IET energy attunement, the 4 energy levels, the 5 step IET healing process and had a lot of opportunity to practice the 5 IET steps on other IET students. The advanced training provided a final IET energy attunement, which unlocks the energy of your soul's purpose and teaches many additional energy tools. IET can also be conducted while sitting in a chair, on oneself and through distance healing.” I recommend it highly. H.
