One of our goals when creating the Self-Healing Foundation was to see if we could inspire people who were impacted by the incredible results they got from TFT to in turn help others. We compared it to a wave of good energy we could help create that would move through our troubled world. What we found, quite remarkably, is that “acts of loving kindness, acts of complete benevolence, dramatically impact the healing process”. We found that energetically speaking, one completes an incredible shift in their own consciousness by going from the recipient of help to the giver of help.
Psychologically, the richness of self-sacrifice, teaching and helping others creates a phenomenal catharsis in the individual. Through the group efforts at an event, we could channel this experience through what we called “missions”. At our first healing conference in Bogota Colombia IN 2024, after several days of healing seminars and higher level teaching, we embarked with 25 participants on a mission to a cancer center and an orphanage. We piled into vehicles and when we arrived at the orphanage, it felt like we had mobilized a healing army of motivated individuals who were eager to donate their time and efforts for the children.
Laura Rodriguez, leader at the orphanage explained that these beautiful children had often come from abusive homes, environments, some even had bite marks or scars on their faces. It struck you immediately how it touched your heart just to be in proximity and the enormity of what we were to undertake dawned on us. It was unprecedented. The administrators were so curious that at first we were to only see a handful of these souls. To our amazement they had assembled a small army of children and we met them in what they called “the jungle”. Basically, “the jungle” was a large outdoor area where they could blow off steam and play. Herding them into a group and engaging them actually took the combined efforts of all 25 TFT trained volunteers who were eager to engage the children. One child immediately plopped into the lap of my partner and co-founder of the Foundation and said “Are you going to be my poppy?” and for the rest of the stay followed him like an eager puppy and sat in his lap smothering him in hugs.
We had created the wonderful tapping song which Joanne Callahan had graciously uploaded onto this site which engages children through song to follow the tapping sequence. Incredibly the children ate up the teaching, began singing and loved the “King Kong” tapping sequence and as a group you could feel something magical was occurring. Here we were, the people of our Foundation from a dozen countries across the world, together, a small army with only kindness in mind, helping teach TFT healing techniques to these very deserving children. They actually loved it!
Unlike adults, the children put their little hearts and souls into it and began to experience benefits. The administrators watched us because they were worried so many children would be unmanageable. In only a short while the mob of eager rambunctious children had become a very placated, quiet group. Everyone noticed an incredible shift in their energy and focus. They were totally engaged. We taught them the tapping sequence, and explained that this was their special skill they could use whenever they felt troubled and could employ their new skills to lift their troubles. They were very excited.
As a group, the concept of helping these children, of spreading this good energy and knowledge had incredibly lifted our souls as well. To be of service was incredibly uplifting and to see the tangible results was incredible. As the children finally left “the jungle” to return to the dormitory for dinner, the administrator of the orphanage came over to us and said: “I have just witnessed a miracle, these children never come from the jungle into the dormitory calmly. And here they are so peaceful and content. You must teach this marvelous TFT healing to all our orphanages in Colombia”. As our group of 25 TFT-trained instructors piled back into the vans to leave the orphanage throughout our teaching group you heard the same words… “That was the most uplifting and important thing I’ve ever done”. Thank you Dr. Roger and Joanne Callahan for this marvelous gift you have taught us which we had the privilege of sharing through our Healing Foundation
