Oh, the lovely processing period, with all its emotional ups and downs, bad dreams, fatigue, sleeplessness and brain fog. What a drag it can be!
Fortunately, it seems like these symptoms are only experienced 20% of the time, and they only last a day or two for the most part. Chances are, you’re going to be asked why we have to go through processing, and what exactly it is, so to help you get ready, here’s an analogy that is pretty easy to understand:
“Doing The Emotion Code is like doing surgery on the energy body. We are literally looking for “malignant” or harmful energies that need to be removed, then we remove them, and the energy body has to heal and reorganize or regain it’s balance. If you were to do actual surgery to have a tumor removed, you would expect to have at least a few days of downtime afterward. Your surgeon would also likely tell you what to expect during this healing time, and he or she would also advise you to get extra rest in order to allow the body to heal. The advice after a session with The Emotion Code is just about the same! Be aware that if you feel out of sorts, have changes in your sleeping pattern, vivid dreams or emotional ups and downs, this is totally normal! Drink lots of water, eat healthy and get lots of rest, and let your energy body heal itself. You may not notice anything weird or negative, you might just feel great, but it’s better to be aware just in case.”
It’s a good idea to get in the habit of discussing this in the last minute or two of each session that you do. We also recommend emailing your clients a copy of their results, or giving them a printout, which should include a blurb or a disclaimer about processing. Some of your sessions will likely be somewhat mind-blowing for your clients, and they might have a hard time remembering the advice if it isn’t written down!
