What a pain...Tapping on pain or Chronic Conditions
Pain and chronic illnesses work very interestingly in energy psychology. Many people often feel like they have failed when they work on pain or a chronic condition when it doesn't work immediately or as fast as maybe someone else's journey. Why is it working for so many people and not for me? What am I doing wrong? Why isn't it working for me?

I must add that energy psychology such as EFT is not a replacement for medical care but an amazing tool to use alongside, in combination with medical treatment.
A bit about stuck energy and energy blocks
Everyone has their own journey and in terms of energy blueprint we are all so very different. Our life experiences create an energetic map of things that have happened to us, things that we have experienced, things we may have brought into our lives and things that just stick to us and influence our energy. There are also so many other ways our energy gets affected. In energetic terms, we may have picked up some negative energy along the way that started off as a little niggle. When this energy weren't dealt with, new energies that come into play in our lives and especially negative energy becomes stuck behind the initial source preventing the effective flow of energy. Now for some people there may be a little bit of energy that needs to move and for others there may be a hell of a lot of energy that needs to move.
Now it becomes tricky when two people have the same illness or chronic pain...the external representation or symptom is the same in terms of the condition being diagnosed. However, even when we call our conditions as the same for example depression, cancer, chronic joint pains or whatever it may be, our actual experience of it can be very different. We may experience a difference in the way the pain actually feels or the way the illness makes me more tired than you or how the condition makes you more irritable than me. Much in the same way, the energies are very different. The reasons and the initial source of the negative energy that caused the blockage to start off with may be very different. Furthermore, the amount of stuck energy that have formed for me before my illness received a diagnostic label may be a lot less than the stuck energy that formed before you received that same diagnostic label.
So to answer the question's above:
Why is it working for so many people and not for me? Why isn't it working for me?
It is working for you. Just as your stuck energy took time to create the energy blocks, so will it take time to see the symptomatic evidence of the blocks clearing. Remember the correct energy flow allows your body to function optimally which in turn means your body is able to heal itself naturally. Your body may have had a lot more energy accumulated than some others you may be comparing yourself to.
What am I doing wrong?
Nothing. Change your thinking. What you think affects your energy and therefore how the energy healing may affect your body and help with your healing. I don't mean that you must believe that it will work in a brainwash sort of way. I mean that a positive outlook and an understanding that your energy has a process to go through in order to effect the change you want to see in your symptomatic experience.

How to use EFT to work with pain and chronic illnesses
Tapping on pain on a disease is a great way of using EFT on these conditions. The best way however to get long lasting results when tapping on your condition is to work on the emotional elements first so the way you feel. So you would work on things like:
- the feelings you have about your condition;
- the feelings you may have about tapping working for and on your condition;
- the expectations you may have on energy healing working on your condition;
- you may even tap on trying to find the energetic cause for the energy block in the first place and then work on that.
In this way, you start moving the energy and the blocks surrounding your inner world, your thoughts, feelings, emotions, expectations, loss, hurts, limitations. This work in my view is the work that needs to be done first if you want to see greater and long term improvement in pain or chronic conditions.
In essence you would work from the inside out so from mind and soul to body and symptoms.
Please be patient with this process. You may need to tap on the same issues for many days, weeks, months before you see a real improvement on the physical symptoms of your condition whilst another person may see instant results. But now at least you have an idea of why this may be the case for you.
