Hi Everyone,
On the 25th June last year I posted this about the first UK Armed Forces Day, and how EFT could perhaps have a place in helping with PTSD that many veterans are left with. As the second UK Armed Forces Day approaches on June 26th it is interesting to see this letter from producer/director Eric Huurre, posted in Gary Craig's latest newsletter as he tidies up his retirement process.
Letter from Eric Huurre regarding the new EFT for Veterans film
More than two years have gone into compiling the feature length documentary OPERATION: Emotional Freedom – The Answer. Full details and how to order the film/DVD can be found at www.operation-emotionalfreedom.com .
This detailed investigation of post traumatic stress in combat veterans is about to be released into a climate unchanged from the time we started on this project. The problem remains rampant while conventional therapies still provide little or no relief. Hopefully, that will change with this extraordinary film.
Dozens of the best and most respected names in energy psychology and EFT contributed their time and efforts for therapy sessions and hundreds of interviews, tests and follow-up research. Those who have seen previews say this is the most extensive film portrayal of EFT in action to date.
I was graced with the opportunity to work with a very special group of volunteer veterans and EFT practitioners in this story. I don’t believe any of us were prepared for what this project would reveal to us and to others over time. It was extraordinary. In our initial conversations about doing a feature length film, Gary asked for just one thing, ”provide the audience with irrefutable evidence of what we can do with this technique.” We did just that.
This effort is more than a film. It stands as a testimony to EFT; a landmark example for the future care and support for veterans and their families; and a unique insight into the nature of trauma and how to overcome it for anyone. You can learn more about the people behind this project as well obtaining your own DVD copy, or view on demand screening at the film’s official web site: www.operation-emotionalfreedom.com
Gary, my personal thanks. You were truly my own and this film’s inspiration. Blessings to you in your retirement. You leave all of us better for what you brought to light.

I have watched the video clips; obviously they are the merest taster of what it is all about but it evidently builds on what has gone before, mentioned in my previous post. For those who doubt that such a strange technique can have any effect, it seems to me that the proof of the pudding is in the eating, or as the gentleman says in the clips, having been a big skeptic about the use of EFT for this, he is now very enthusiastic because of one thing, called "RESULTS" . I shall be adding this DVD to my EFT collection as soon as I can.
We have to remember that EFT and other energy psychology methods are in their relative infancy, and a body of research has yet to be compiled in sufficient amounts to satisfy the skeptics. Research requires funding and unlike the pharmaceutical industries, and their financial backers, who can make big money out of their research results with new drugs, etc. these processes are ones that anyone can apply to themselves, so it's more likely that funding comes from more altruistic or philanthropical sources who are not in it purely for the financial gain, but rather for the benefits to mankind.
Placebo? Wouldn't we expect a placebo effect from what they are already doing - surely they want to get well? Time will tell, but these veterans have usually been through drug and therapy regimes and are still no better off, yet a relatively few EFT sessions bring about huge beneficial changes, for the individuals and their families. And that is not even mentioning the enormous amount of money it could save various health and social service budgets!
This is something that will be of great interest to keep an eye on over the next few years.
Bright Blessings,
Karen

I really like blending EFT with gratitude. Just focusing on what I am grateful for. So simple, yet so powerful!
