I have worn glasses since I was 6 and have always longed to see better. Although I was looking forward to reading and experiencing this book, when it arrived I couldn't bring myself to open it! What was that all about? I couldn't see a down side to improving my sight and I finally had to do some EFT tapping to get rid of my resistance. Once I started, I was amazed and excited as the program unfolded.

Each chapter teaches the reader to eliminate different emotional blocks that can affect our eyes: anger, fear, guilt, anxiety, resentment, and limiting beliefs. The author provides a different statement to be said out loud at each of the EFT points. The first round is for the negative statements such as, "I have this fear stuck in my eyes." I wish I hadn't seen what I saw." I can't forget what I saw." The next round consists of positive statements like,"I can get over what I saw." I can forgive myself for looking." etc.

All that we need to do is use EFT tapping for only 5 minutes a day. The author asks us to spend 2 weeks to eliminate anger, and I found that I needed the entire time to let go of past and present rage and frustration.

Although I have worked on myself for a great many years, I had an amazing breakthrough toward the end of the 8 week program where understanding of the 2 most important traumas in my life suddenly came together to show me that when I went through those awful moments I decided that I didn't want to see what was happening. It was as if a light bulb had gone on suddenly illuminating the dark corners of my mind where aspects of these memories had actually been erased from my brain. The "aha" was thrilling and cleansing as I felt a profound release.

Soon after I finished the book I returned to my eye doctor to see if there had been any improvement in my vision, and I was encouraged to see that there was. I wholeheartedly recommend this book. You will benefit in more ways than you expect.

Having recently "discovered" EFT through a group promoting it to be used for "EVERYTHING", I was at a loss as to the language to use while tapping for what ever problems one intends to address.Since I wanted to use it for an unusual vision problem I searched for additional help and came across this book. It is based on the author's (Carol Look)experiment with a group of volunteers who saw remarkable results. A few minutes each day, for eight weeks, one week each on 8 different emotions, participants tap through the sequences. The author makes it easy as she gives you the "language" to be used for each session and tapping point.I'm in the 4th week of tapping and like to share with you that while my specific problem (double vision) has not yet been resolved, I have however noticed an improvement in my vision, being able to easily read signs I was not able to read without squinting prior to the tapping. Vision and emotions are definitely related. Also, it only works if you actually do the tapping. Often people are not ready to let go of challenges and the author addresses that issue in the first weeks tapping session.
I recommend this book not only for the vision, but also for newcomers to EFT to have the language which they can then adjust to their own challenge.

This is a well-written and organized book that promises better vision through guided Emotional Freedom Techniques. This tapping accompanied with examples of statements you say, is carefully explained and orchestrated over several weeks. I found my sight and vision changing as I tapped through the negative charges attached to my emotions and memories. The first week I wondered at the lack of insights/memories then, bingo! They began. What I discovered about myself was that it took perseverance to continue after the chapters on anger. Frankly I allowed "life" to interfere and I quit inspite of the amazing changes I noticed in my vision. I'm now restarting the "program". I choose to heal!

I believe I have read nearly every book written on the topic of EFT. I have found this one to be one of the best. While you do have to keep an open mind, I would ask anyone who reads this book to think beyond just improving eyesight. The belief is that our negative beliefs hinder all parts of our body. Release the negativity and your body will feel better. Release emotional pain and you will begin to "see" your life with more clarity and peace. I do feel there are genetic circumstances that lead to ailments which impact the eyes and EFT can't cure them. But what I do believe (and have experienced) is that EFT can help ease the stress you, and your eyes, have been under. This book can help guide you to a state of balance.

The other two EFT books I highly recommend are: The Heart & Soul of EFT and Beyond: A Soulful Exploration of the Emotional Freedom Techniques and Holistic Healing and

I fully embrassed the concept of self responsibility for my vision improvement. I followed directions and have noticed a discernable improvement in my vision. I am recommending this treasure to my friends.

I don't know if this book can be useful when combined with other techniques. I had worked before with the Bates method and really worked for me, the correction needed in my glasses decreased. Since I left Bates exercices some time ago I thought this would be a good way to re-start the work on my eyes and would provide a different approach. But nothig happened. I would better recommend to work on the Bates method through anyone of the books or dvd available.

A very clear guidance on a 8 weeks program. 5 mn exercices each day. It needs some discipline but it is worth.
I like also the large font....which is very appreciated when one have eyesight problems.
Highly recommended!

This book was NOT for me! I appreciate EFT, but the phrases in this book would, for me, be counterproductive to healing. My eye issue was sudden onset, not years in the making. In response to author's initial questions about "the downside of improving my vision" or "what might change in my life (if vision improved) that would be uncomfortable" .... THERE IS NO DOWNSIDE AND ALL CHANGE WOULD BE GOOD. So, continuing through every chapter, I could not genuinely repeat "I have this resistence to seeing better" or "I don't really want to improve my eyesight" --- JUST NOT TRUE. If you think you have "psychological impediments" to "seeing clearly" and that this impedes your vision; if you think there is somewhere a resistence to improving, this book might help. But that isn't my situation. I've created my own EFT series relevant to my situation of very much wanting eye health and having no resistance to that. For those who do purchase, know that the online eye exam recommended to do at the beginning and end of the program is no longer available.

This book was useless to me

I have shared this book with many family and friends. What a joy to have better eyesight!

I knew what I wanted, they offered a good price, the delivery was prompt and the book was in good shape. Thank you
