Incredible healing with EFT

I am always amazed at the depth of healing I can go to and not feel afraid of feeling the feelings. I think it is the physical tapping that intercepts the descent into the feeling to access it and making it easier to release it (It's like going down a dark hole into darkness but you have a rope tied to your waist and you feel safe, whereas before I felt like I was falling into the abyss and was afraid of being engulfed and never returning).

I was tapping on money and clearing the blocks I have to it and stuff just started to tumble out. Stuff that I had been on the peripherals all the time and I was able to experience the event that traumatized me but I was also able to heal it by forgiving the person that had offended me and I was able to forgive myself for picking up where this person left off, one event I had been torturing myself emotionally for 32 years. I healed and sent the person forgiveness and love, the universal kind of love, the kind that all living things deserve. Even the most evil of people have a drop of humanness and by acknowledging that they are who they are because of damage that was done to them in their lives, I am able to forgive them their humanness.

If I am deserving of forgiveness, then they are too. We all are. Every last one of us.

If I say that someone is not deserving of forgiveness, then I am stating that I know what is best over that who knows more than I do and always will. If I say that someone doesn't deserve to be forgiven then I hold on to judgment which interferes with my ability to forgive which is essential for healing.

Forgiveness is not an admission that what was done to us is excusable,  but rather it is a release of the negative connection to that person so we can live our lives.

They will get what they ultimately deserve, forgiveness is not an absolution of their deeds, they will receive their punishment, it isn't for us to decide what that is. Forgiveness is something we do for ourselves so that we may let go of them and what they did. The memory is still there but the emotional charge that eats us alive isn't.

You don't forgive to release them, you forgive to release you.
