NOTE FROM NANCY ::

Dear %$firstname$%,
Hi and welcome again to my e-zine, Forward Action! After a little hiatus most of last year, I am very excited to get back to offering this helpful monthly e-zine again. For June, I’m re-releasing the premier issue from 2008 to get the momentum going again. It will be just long enough to offer you tidbits of information that you can select to read. And will you please feel free to give me feedback about what you like, don’t like and what you’d like to hear more of, too.

I realize our email boxes can get filled up with a lot of junk -  I’m hoping that the information I pass on to you will be of value. And, hopefully, when you signed up for the Forward Action E-Zine you received your Special Report, “The Biggest Mistake People Make in Relationships and How to Avoid It.” If you didn't, please email me or call (949) 675-0509 and I’ll make sure you get it right away.

Jump on in here and begin your journey with me through the upcoming issues of Forward Action.

By the way, you may always refer back to this newsletter, at a later date, by visiting my newsletter archives page (http://www.forwardactioncoach.com/ezinearchive.htm)

FEATURE ARTICLE | Energy Psychology Introduction ::

For the sake of this article, let’s honor the main tenet of quantum physics – that all we really are is energy. Now this is a pretty simplistic explanation but one that’s easy to grasp. If we can assume this is a good enough definition for now, then it makes sense that energy psychology would be useful to help our negative emotions, physical ailments, tension and stresses, to name just a few. EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is a simple and effective technique that I teach all of my clients, in person or on the phone, to use for themselves. We do this ‘tapping’ on certain meridian spots on the face and upper body during our sessions, while saying things that we usually think about. Clients use this technique on their own as often as possible in between our sessions for preventive calmness or to attain quick relief from minor discomforts or emotional issues. We will often work together on deeper issues that are typically painful in traditional psychotherapy, but end up painless due to the gentle and respectful nature of EFT. For more information and a free manual, check out www.emofree.com, Gary Craig’s generous web site.

Potential clients will contact me for life coaching and they end up using EFT regularly. They use this to reduce or eliminate the stuck places that have kept them from moving forward to where they want to be in their  lives.

By tapping on energy meridians - well-known to chiropractors, acupuncturists, massage therapists, and other alternative practitioners–

Negative emotions and physical pain absolutely
dissolve and usually do not return.

Now, this must sound ridiculously simple.  But guess what? Not only is it simple, but it’s so very easy (check out the many testimonials on my web site, www.forwardactioncoach.com, and at the end of this section.) The meridian healing system originated in Chinese medicine. It's based on the concept that an insufficient supply of qi (life energy, chi) can make a person vulnerable to disease. Restoring the qi is the ultimate in restoring overall health and well-being. You may not be familiar with this modality of healing. In our western culture, we are unaccustomed to healing with ease, especially when our doctor visits often end up with a prescription, surgery recommendation or physical therapy. Today’s physicians are overwhelmed with new diseases cropping up, new medications to prescribe and new treatments being discovered. They tend to stay with what they know and do not gravitate toward Eastern culture’s ancient techniques. Our physicians expend hundreds of thousands of dollars on medical school, and graduate with brilliant ideas and theories, practical skills and specialties. But they often do not receive education in the healing arts – and EFT is one healing art that can assist with physical pain. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that the next time we visit our physicians, they will be respectful of the vitamins and supplements we may  take and might recommend that you receive regular massages, or acupuncture —  or EFT!

Isn’t it time for you to learn EFT and all of its wonders? Of course it is! Here’s all you have to do:  Visit my web site’s EFT page www.forwardactioncoach.com/eft.htm and you’re on your way. Learn more about this wonderful way to help yourself feel better, clearer, and release more and more tension, anxiety and feelings of "stuckness". Contact me at 949-675-0509, or visit my contact page www.forwardactioncoach.com/contactnancy.htm for a free consultation. Here’s what you will receive:

  • Focus on a specific limiting belief that has kept you from being where you want to be in your life, e.g., I don’t deserve success, I’m not good enough, etc.
  • 5 one-hour weekly phone sessions with me
  • Lots of e-mail contact in between our sessions
  • 5 weekly customized scripts written by me for your personal issues that you are ready to release
  • Limited telephone contact in between our sessions

So let’s get started! This is the year to let go of your procrastination! I hope to hear from you soon!

Here's just a taste of a few of my clients' success stories related to their use and excitement about EFT and how they were helped:

After my brief negative experience with a psychologist, Nancy and EFT seem like nothing short of a miracle. If anyone had told me that after just a few sessions, I would be sleeping through the night, laughing with my friends and no longer stressed about my toxic job, I don't think I'd have believed them. Even my MD is amazed at how well I am doing and is interested in learning more about EFT! I can't recommend EFT highly enough, and Nancy is the perfect person to help you learn how use this amazing technique.
— Karalee D., Tustin, CA


I have been seeing Nancy for 2 1/2 years. We have been using EFT with much success to overcome many of my childhood and adult traumas. Prior to EFT, I wasn't able to drive anywhere unfamiliar, couldn't be in crowds of people, I experienced panic attacks, had an eating disorder, had moderate diabetes and was overweight, depressed and anxious. I didn't want to do anything that was fun. Since using EFT with Nancy's guidance, I have overcome and/or improved nearly every one of my previous problems.

I have lost 60 pounds, my diabetes is nearly gone, I work out 5 days a week and I now enjoy being healthy. I have a happy outlook on my life. I take classes, do volunteer work and have many fun hobbies. I have been using EFT for nearly all of my problems and attribute my changes to my persistence. Nancy and EFT have turned my life around — actually, saved my life.
— Robin A., Plant Manager, Santa Ana, CA


Before working with Nancy, I didn’t know what to expect.  However, any reluctance was immediately replaced first by need and then RESULTS! Some struggles I wanted help with were: lack of communication skills, relationship skills… platonic and romantic, and business challenges. As a result of our work together, it’s changed me. I’m not who I was. And, who I am now can handle most anything. I have a different perspective on almost everything and new skill sets to solve troubles.  When I  can't do it on my own, Nancy is ALWAYS there by email or phone immediately… even once when something came up urgently and I was in Slovenia… she called me back!  Now I have new feelings about myself and others! I have a sense in my heart (not as books or even seminars do — in your head) of who I am and how self love and gratitude effect EVERYTHING in your life!  What is unique about our work together is the in-between session support.  A phone call or email in urgent situations or just questions Nancy is and was always there for me.  That's worth a LOT, and she is amazing in that respect. She has gone WAY above the call of duty…  MANY TIMES FOR ME.  We even gotten together in California when I've been on travels.

NANCY'S TAPALONG™ | Energy Psychology for Disbelief
and Acceptance ::

Here's my 'Nancy's Tapalong in case you are unclear about EP and EFT, have some limiting beliefs about it and want to clear them

Setup Statement While tapping continuously on the karate chop place with fingertips of one hand onto the other hand, say the following:

  • Even though I'm not sure what Energy Psychology is all about and I'm kind of leery about its uses, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself anyway.
  • Even though this energy psychology seems like a strange, new thing and I'm not sure it would work for me and my problems, I consider its benefits and choose to accept my doubts.
  • Even though I'm doubtful that my problems will change from using the EFT, I accept myself and choose to be open to more available techniques that might make me feel better.

Round 1 Do 2 rounds tap 5-7 times on each of these 8 places continually and say the following at each place:

  • Inner Eye:I'm not sure I understand what this tapping is about
  • Outer Eye: I don't know how it can help me
  • Under Eye: It is kinda strange!
  • Under Nose: I've never done something like this
  • Middle of Chin: I'm up for doing something different
  • Collarbone: I wonder why I'm so skeptical, anyway?
  • Under Arm: I can make changes in my feelings
  • Top of Head: I can let myself be easier on me

Round 2 Back to inner eye, outer eye, etc. saying:

  • I'm starting to feel better about this strange thing
  • Maybe I can just accept that it's here and that it helps people
  • Maybe I can allow myself to feel better about anything
  • I can tap and be less analytical and judgmental maybe
  • I like knowing that I can change my opinions
  • It feels good not to be so sure about what I think
  • I like knowing that I can be open more
  • I like that new things are here for me to use if I choose!

NAOMI'S NOOK ::

"Woof Woof" (translation: hello to you all!!)  Many of you probably already know me, and for those of you who don't, my name is Naomi.   I’m a black Labrador Retriever, and am a former Guide Dog puppy–in–training who was supposed to grow up and work as a seeing eye dog... however, I flunked (woohoo!) which was not a bad thing! About me: I was born November 2006 and at seven weeks, my brothers, sisters and I were sent to different volunteer puppy-raisers.  These were people who would socialize us, attend puppy kindergarten and obedience classes. Some of the very stringent things we learned were: no sniffing, no tennis balls or Frisbee playing, heeling, sitting, staying, laying down, but I got to go almost everywhere with Nancy:  restaurants, movies (the IMAX "The Alps" was my favorite) on airplanes, busses, art museums, business meetings, supermarkets and being at her office with her private clients. 

After 18 months of "basic training," I was to attend 6 months of intense training at Guide Dogs of America’s California campus.  I would learn traffic lights, wearing the harness, crossing streets, looking out for high branches and other things that I would protect my blind person from bumping into.  Unfortunately, I didn’t make it that far.  The rigors of classes and not being allowed to sniff turned out to be far too stressful for me.  Some of us just don’t like working that hard, it just doesn’t come naturally and, in my case, it was all too upsetting and I got pretty nervous.  So after 6 weeks of evaluation from December ’07 to January ‘08, I was released from the Guide Dog program - and turned over to Nancy… YAY!!!  I’m happy now, I get to play with tennis balls, Frisbees and lay around the house.

I’m here because I will be a monthly guest writer in the Forward Action E-zines and share with you how life is going from my point of view.  It’ll be great fun, and I can’t wait until the next issue!
