How many of us have problems with knowing our left from our right? Perhaps not that many: perhaps lots of us. It is not one of those life-threatening issues so maybe we just keep quiet about it.
I have never been able to tell my left from my right without some serious thinking. So if I was out driving and I needed directions, I would have to ask well in advance so I could work it out and then tap one finger of the required direction hand on the steering wheel to ensure I turned the correct way.
I also had problems working out the down crossword clues. I had to write them out across the page with dashes where the missing letters were. Then I could usually work them out.
I never thought this could be any form of dyslexia as I have always been able to spell really well.
About a year ago I discovered sudoku. I play online where I can check if I have made any errors. I found that I could solve the across lines but had the same problem with the down lines as with the down crosswords.
Why not try EFT on it? I had read that EFT works well on dyslexia so let me see if it works on inability to do down sudoku lines! I thought about what emotion I was feeling… embarrassment? Nope: too old to bother about being embarrassed. Fear? Nope: Aha! Frustration! That was the one! I did a quick round of EFT on my frustration on not being able to do down sudoku lines and threw in for good measure that I couldn’t tell left from right.
I waited: nothing seemed any different. I went back to my puzzle. I looked at the down numbers. All I can say is that suddenly I could ’see’ them! I was amazed. I quickly finished a puzzle… no down errors!
Wow!! Then I wondered how I could check my left and right. Turn left I shouted to myself and my head turned immediately to the left. Turn right: same thing. I rushed off to ask my husband to check me. 100% each time. No hesitation! I can point out things correctly now. It’s in the fridge on the middle shelf on the right: I can give accurate directions. And I can do down crossword clues now without writing them out!
Another case of EFT to the rescue!
