Harness the healing power of TFT to conquer anxiety, stress, fears, and addictions

"Believe me, I have seen miracles using Dr. Callahan's techniques. Isn't it time we stopped settling for anything less than miracles?"
--Jack Canfield, editor, Chicken Soup for the Soul series

"This book is as remarkable as the therapy itself. To see a hardened smoker quit in minutes or a person with a fear of dentists suddenly be able to receive needed treatment and achieve instant, sustained relief is extraordinary."
--Richard G. Petty, M.D., Ph.D., founder, Integrated Medicine Program, Department of Psychiatry, University of Pennsylvania

"An invaluable tool for helping anyone suffering from a psychological or physical problem get back onto the road of optimal health. Dr. Callahan's method works."

Customer Reviews

Excellent!
This is a wonderfully easy to follow self-help book from the founder of TFT. The approach is demonstrated with confidence and the examples seem pretty convincing. One wonders why the scientific and therapy community are so low key about taking this method up.

It inspired me to undertake a training in Thought Field Therapy, and I have found it to be a very inspiring book!

The right book at the right time
Bearing in mind that Dr. Callahan made his discovery over 20 years ago this book has been a long time in coming! However, I expect the majority of readers (and users) will not be disappointed. Concise, well written and more accessible to the general reader than his earlier and more theoretical book "Stop the Nightmares of Trauma", Dr. Callahan details his work from its tentative beginnings to some astounding recent findings. Also well presented are step-by-step treatment procedures that Dr. Callahan says will lead to a cure in 75-80% of those who use them correctly. Of course, this will be a grave disappointment for the 20-25% on whom these basic procedures will fail to work. Nevertheless, Dr. Callahan even throws out a lifeline for these people, with a section on troubleshooting the treatments and an invitation for those with more complex problems to contact him directly for advice. I expect few people will do this though - it's so much easier to be satisfied with failure and blame the "driver" than pick oneself up from despair and grab an opportunity that's too good to miss. The more curious and scientifically minded would do well to buy "Stop the Nightmares of Trauma" to get the bigger picture.

This book is excellent
I have read this book and I have to say it is extremely well-written. The scientific evidence is particularly compelling. It' difficult to argue with HRV results, rouleaux, etc. I have tried the algorithms mentioned in the book on myself, family and friends and we are delighted with the successes. I hope this book will give Dr. Callahan and his work with Thought Field Therapy the recognition it truly deserves.
