How to Calm Children with Surrogate EFT and be a Silent Angel
There have been many example articles about how tapping ‘for’ someone can have amazing effects. Here’s my contribution. I used to be annoyed by screaming kids in public places but now I do my bit to ease the situation.
The first time I did this was in a food court. You know the situation - the kid is screaming and running uncontrollably, the mother is looking desperate, and everyone else is grumbling or looking away. I focused on the child and, without saying anything out loud, I placed my intention on the tapping spots and thought something like “Even though I’m tired and hungry, I choose to be relaxed and calm” but I don’t think the words really matter. In less than a minute the child returned to her mother and sat down with the family. I’m sure I felt a mutual sigh of relief from all within hearing distance.
Then just recently, I was on a flight with a very new baby on board who starting screaming during takeoff. I focused on the child, put my intention on the tapping points and mentally repeated “Even though my ears hurt, the plane is noisy and I’m scared, I choose to feel relaxed and calm”. Before I even got through one round the baby fell silent. During landing the baby started to cry again and I repeated the procedure with the same effect.
I call this being a Silent Angel. I love to be able to contribute to others in this way. I wonder how many of us can perform random acts of kindness like this each day.
