Lack of sleep can be very draining on our emotional and physical health. Combined with pain, it can be devastating. In this episode Carol talks about her years of insomnia and pain and how she overcame most of it at an EFT training session. Carol had had incessant insomnia and night terrors for years. During the EFT Training Carol talks about how the EFT Chase the Pain approach helped relieve her of her pain and how she gained further relief working with deep seated emotional issues including rage. Guest: Carol Hickson, EFT Therapist Contact: Website: www.letgobehappy.com/ About: Carol Hickson is a level 1 and 2 EFT Practitioner. In addition, she has a diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and is a Life Coach, Mindfulness Teacher and Reiki practitioner. She is based in Northwich, Cheshire although she does telephone and Skype consultations. A former Secondary French and Spanish teacher Carol has 20 years pastoral experience working directly with children and their families. She came to therapy because of her own personal experience which the medical profession, although diligent, had not been able to resolve. A combination of bereavements, work related stress and chronic pain (she has two broken discs in the lumbar region and Cervical Dystonia) led to a four-year bout of chronic insomnia, which left her debilitated and exhausted. As a result, of personal experience Carol has chosen to focus, in particular, on Insomnia, Childhood Issues, Bereavement and Chronic Pain using a combination of the above therapies. Using EFT she has overcome several struggles which were impacting on her life. Her insomnia was resolved once she had dealt with childhood experiences and the deaths of her partner and father. Her significant problems with back and neck pain have settled, previously she required a disabled parking badge and, she has been pain and medication free since her involvement with EFT. The emotional issues including fear, shame and outrage underlying the physical symptoms have been resolved. In the near future, she will be training in Mindfulness Based Inner Repatterning. She hopes to take EFT into schools and enable students to be proactive towards their mental and emotional health. She is passionate about helping fellow insomniacs and sufferers of chronic pain find release from their suffering and is confident that this is achievable by identifying the emotional roots of the problem. It is time to Let Go Be Happy!
