Eliminating Physical Pain
by Grant McFetridge, with comments by Gary Craig, developer of EFT.
Gary Craig writes: "How do you feel ABOUT your body having pain? Grant McFetridge offers another way of approaching the emotional causes to pain. He asks people to focus on how they feel ABOUT their body having pain. Seems like a good idea to me--a direct way to get to the emotional causes. He reports very high success rates and shares his method & theory with us below. Thank you Grant."

How to know when the healing is done
by Grant McFetridge, with comments by Gary Craig, developer of EFT.
Gary Craig writes: "It's time for a little philosophy. Grant McFetridge sent me his thoughts on "how to know when the healing is done." He is an insightful, inquisitive fellow and a substantial contributor to this field. Accordingly, I thought you would find his message of interest and so I include it herein. My thoughts on this subject, however, are quite different from Grant's. The contrast between our perspectives should be stimulating."
