This amazing system works on a principle popularized by hypnotist, Dr. Moshe Zwang and is called Palm Therapy.
To eliminate an unwanted behavior, you will be pressing on two specific point of the hand. We choose the left hand because it is cross-wired to the right or emotional brain.
Perhaps it is this wiring that makes this system work so well.   - Look at the palm of your left hand. Around your thumb you’ll see your life line, above that your head line and finally closest to your fingers, your heart line. You’ll be pressing on two pressure points; one on the heart line and one on the middle head line.
- Locate the spot on your heart line directly between your little and ring finger. When you press on that spot you may feel a slight ache or pain.
- Next locate the spot on your head line, down from your index finger, near the middle finger. (If your head line connects to the life line, make sure that you are not on your life line). Again it will be a little tender.
- Ask yourself (or the person you are helping) if you really want to get rid of your phobia. If the answer is "no," stop. Do it later when you are ready. If you said "yes" to yourself, proceed.
- Close your eyes and imagine yourself in the frightening situation that upsets you.
- On a scale of one to ten (one being weak and ten being intense), how strong is that feeling now?
- Ask yourself where in the body you feel the tension.
- Now, press firmly for ten seconds on the heart line and headline pressure spots as you close your eyes. Then open the eyes while continually pressing for an additional two minutes while asking yourself (or the person you are helping) pleasant questions like:
- "Where do you like to go on vacation?"
- "Do you have any pets?"
- "What do you do for fun?"
- Close your eyes again and imagine the phobic situation and the reaction again. The phobia will have vanished or be greatly reduced. If ever the phobia reappears use this technique again.
