No matter how much you love and adore your kids, there will be moments when

parenthood is tested to its limits. Coping with children when they are off

school for weeks can be quite an endurance test for even the most laid back

parent. The challenge of entertaining the kids whilst maintaining the usual

chores at home and work can be quite a handful to juggle.

When the kids

are at home, away from school and many of their school friends on holiday,

parents face a hitherto unheard problem: Boredom. Children like the discipline

and routine during school. Everything is organised and follows predictable

routines. As much as all kids are looking forward to their holidays the

enthusiasm often wears off after only a few days. Once the novelty of living

into the day has lost its excitement the days become long and boring. School

friends may be on vacation and there is no one to play with but the parents or

siblings. I am sure, as a parent you know the scenario only too well.

Here you are forever looking for ways to keep the little darlings busy

and out of mischief. The kid's holiday rarely is a holiday for parents. Your

workload is easily doubled and you probably can't wait for school to begin

again.

However, you can help yourself and your children out of this

tough spot surprisingly easily.

You may have heard of energy therapy and

how it can get results for all kinds of problems fast and easily. One of the

best techniques to use is EFT, Emotional Freedom Technique. It's ease of use and

flexibility makes it the perfect stress relief and problem solving tool for

parents and their children. . .

When you first use this technique, it

looks and feels a little strange, Kids love it, because of that. They have fewer

inhibitions then us adults, In my practice I often get faster and better results

with kids then with adults, They are so open and eager to try something new. As

a parent you can use this fact to your advantage.

Now, what exactly is

EFT?

EFT is simple, powerful and effective.When using EFT you focus the

mind on a specific problem, whilst at the same time tapping with your fingertips

on a number of meridian points to stimulate the body's energy system. Mind focus

together with the action of physical tapping is a very fast way to change your

vibrational energy almost instantaneously. As you feel your energy increasing,

you also dissolve any resistance to changing your mind state. You now move

effortlessly into problem solving mode.

You continue tapping and

focusing on the issue you wish to resolve. By tuning into the vibrational

frequency of your emotional state you can change it quickly, thus releasing the

unwanted emotion and creating the space for positive thoughts and feelings to

enter. As a result your emotional state can be changed in minutes.

Since

EFT can be applied to any problem you could have a quality fun time with your

kids learning to apply it and at the same time releasing any stress or feelings

of boredom or tension in yourself and your kids. EFT can be used in a humorous

and fun way, on literally anything.
