5.0 out of 5 stars Tapping your way to better health
I know Dr. Durlacher well. He is an excellent chiropractor and a wonderful, kind human being. In this book he cuts to the chase, which is typical of his personal, authentic style. He lays out for the reader a system of healing that can be applied to a wide variety of psychological problems. The method involves tuning into the problem by simply thinking about it,...

This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
I know Dr. Durlacher well. He is an excellent chiropractor and a wonderful, kind human being. In this book he cuts to the chase, which is typical of his personal, authentic style. He lays out for the reader a system of healing that can be applied to a wide variety of psychological problems. The method involves tuning into the problem by simply thinking about it, testing the relative strength in a specific muscle, and thus localizing the circuitry that accounts for the problem (e.g., phobia, depression, addictive urge, sports problem). Then we tap on key meridian points to alleviate the interfering emotion. The wonderful thing is that this simple therapy gets amazing results! It is a useful adjunct to any therapy. This book is a worthwhile investment for health care professionals, performance coaches, and motivated lay people. --Fred P. Gallo, Ph.D., author of "Energy Psychology," "Energy Diagnostic and Treatment Methods," and "Energy Tapping."

4.0 out of 5 stars Not 'too good to be true' after all, December 7, 2002
By 
Xan (Colorado USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
~
Although this amazingly effective method for eliminating negative patterns in a person's life may sound too good to be true, thousands of now happier, freer people testify that Energy Psychology/Meridian Therapy methods work, and work easily and well, without spending long years delving into one's painful history. This is one of several books published in recent years from which one can learn to use the techniques for oneself for issues such as fears and phobias, depression, guilt and shame, addictions, anger and frustration, PTSD, low self-worth, barriers to accomplishment, and so on.

There are other books on this healing system that I prefer, in their clear descriptions of the process, but some people may especially like the many case stories and testimonials in this one. See also books by Valerie & Paul Lynch, Peter Lambrou & George Pratt, Garry A. Flint, and Fred Gallo... as well as the materials and wealth of information available from Gary Craig, at www.emofree.com

Everyone should know that this revolutionary method is available for healing and changing one's life from the inside out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent How-To book for elimination of fear/phobia!, July 25, 1999
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
Freedom From Fear Forever is a wonderful book which will show you how to obtain true freedom. I used this process for other emotions too with very good success: anger, sadness, grief, worry. The process works!!! And it is easy to learn. The Acu-Power Method described in the book is great to use before interviews to calm anxiety. The method works great prior to test taking also. Ive seen it work for patients undergoing medical procedures including surgery, MRIs, anesthetic, etc. One of my students used Acu-Power before a major exam and passed it successfully.. She was amazed since she had always experienced severe test anxiety. Ive seen it work on the fear associated with labor & delivery, on fear of anesthetic/surgery, fear of dental procedures and more. I continue to be amazed by the effectiveness of the methods described in this book. This book is a must read for one wanting to make life easier with less fear, anxiety, phobia, etc. I wish I had read it 30 years earlier!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Freedom From Fear For Me - IT WORKS!!, February 22, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
It's interesting reading the other reviews of this book. One review says the methods are "silly"; or simply passes it off as "placebo effect". If it's simply placebo effect, then I personally am the luckiest person west of the Mississippi. And I'm batting 1000. I've had 3 sessions of Accu-Power therapy with a local healer and I have overcome 3 major obstacles in my life. The last month has been life changing and has finally put me on a road to real recovery after years of traditional psychotherapy, allopathic treatment and drugs that have nearly killed me.

I found Durlacher's book to be easy to read, full of wonderful annecdotes and It introduced some of the basics of Traditional Oriental Medicine in a clear, simple manner. To say that it suggests that you simply "touch yourself in certain ways" says to me that that reviewer did not really read and understand the text. Don't go into accu-power thinking that it is a simple solution to all of your problems. A treatment session using these methods is a lot of hard work and concentration and it also physically takes a lot out of your body. I've been recovering physically for a week now from my last session. However, my fear, doubts, and anxiety from a violent past of beatings and rape no longer plagues me.

No, you can't read a book and be over all of your woes. But the methods in this book DO work. They have pretty much saved my life and give ME back to myself. If that ain't worth $13.27 plus shipping.....I don't know what is.

thanks dr. durlacher

5.0 out of 5 stars On my must read list, August 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
This book provides simple, non-invasive techniques to overcome a wide variety of emotions to bring about contentment, peacefulness, more security, and a general sense of well being. These techniques take only a few minutes and leverage tapping acupunture circuits to remove the emotion. There are numerous emotions which can easily be addressed such as anger, fear, grief, or low self esteem. I highly recommend this book especially if you want to quickly and easily make immediate and lasting changes in your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Book That Should Be In Everyone's Medicine Cabinet, December 9, 1999
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
Dr. Durlacher has done an excellent job of assembling a powerful set of tools for dealing with the emotional side of the "triad of health". These tools and techniques will help the reader to treat their own fears, phobias and self defeating behaviors as well as those of their loved ones!

I have used these techniques with great success in my Wholistic practice of Chiropractic Applied Kinesiology. The results have literally been life-changing as patients become liberated from emotional disabilities and limitations! Now Dr. Jim Durlacher has assembled these tools and presented them in an easy to use format for the general public!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outside the Box, May 19, 2006
By 
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
Most western people are generally unfamiliar with the body's energy meridians, eastern accupuncture/accupressure techniques and why they work on the human body. It is also unfamiliar to most of us that not only are the energy systems linked to all organ and tissue systems, the brain (of course),but also hold links to emotional and behavioral systems. In short all of these things are connected through energy.

After several years as Dr. Durlacher's patient, reading and using this book and the Accu-Power technique, I can attest personally to the effective and calming nature of this process. Yes, it is quite different from western Allopathic medicine, which does not acknowledge these connections and would certainly discourage a patient from believing they have the ability to heal themselves.

This technique does take practice and an ability to think outside the box. Moreover, one does not have to understand or believe in the technique for it to work. For the months or years of psychotherapy and the tens and hundreds of dollars spent on prescription drugs by people trying to recover from life's long road, $13 is a small price to pay to teach yourself a technique that puts you in charge of your own process.

5.0 out of 5 stars On my "must read" list of recommendations, April 6, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
In his ground-breaking new work, Dr.James V.Durlacher states that "In this book, you will be able to look into your own body, your body's nervous system, where all things that have happened to you from the time of conception are recorded." Therefore, you can determine any phobias, fears, anxieties and addictions (among many other things) and with his procedures, treat and even abolish these things without drugs or long, drawn out counseling sessions.

This reviewer firmly believes in the importance of seeking new methods to help ourselves find the road to betterment. That is why " Freedom From Fear Forever" is on my "must-read" list of recommendations!

5.0 out of 5 stars Look up placebo defination before talking about it, February 18, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Freedom from Fear Forever: The Acu-Power Way to Overcoming Your Fear, Phobias and Inner Problems (Paperback)
To those who like to dismiss effects of any therapy to the "placebo effect", they should understand that first that the subject using the therapy must first BELIEVE that they are recieving an effective therapy. If there is a shred of doubt, or if they are aware of the type of therapy given (in the case of a new technique that the subject uses on themselves as something to "try out"), there is NO PLACEBO EFFECT. End of story. You may not like the explaination as to why a new technique has an effect, but to throw the baby out with the bathwater is not only ignorant, but a case of child abuse!
