Emotional Freedom Technique -
(EFT)
Where emotional release brings
physical health
Tapping
What is
EFT?
Simply stated, EFT is an emotional
version of acupuncture. Instead of using needles,
however, you stimulate well established energy meridian
points on your body by tapping them with your
fingertips. Thus the process is easy for you to memorize
and is portable so you can do it anywhere. It launches
off the EFT Discovery Statement which
says...
"The cause of all negative emotions
is a disruption in the body's energy
system."
This common sense approach draws its power from (1)
time-honored Eastern discoveries that have been around for
over 5,000 years and (2) Albert Einstein, who told us back
in the 1920's that everything (including our bodies) is
composed of energy. These ideas have been largely ignored
by Western Healing Practices and that is why EFT often
works where nothing else will. It's not that EFT is so
stunning. Rather, it is because conventional healing
methods have simply overlooked the obvious. You will see
that clearly as you allow EFT to bring freedom into your
life where you thought none was
possible.
EFT is a way of bringing
ourselves back into balance. It involves tapping on a
series of acupuncture points located along energy meridians
within the body.
What Does it
Do?
Imagine experiencing
emotional distress - anger, sadness, fear, anxiety - but
finding rapid relief in minutes - that's what EFT
does.
Is it a New Age
Process?
EFT is a very ancient process. It is
based on the meridian system which was discovered in China
about 5000 years ago and on which acupuncture is based.
Both Chinese Medicine and acupuncture state that energy
flows along meridians of the body and when the energy
becomes blocked, then people become sick. Negative emotions
or distress cause the energies to become blocked and EFT
unblocks it - it is really that
simple!
Why Is It
Important?
1. It is non-invasive! (no one has to
do something to you.)
2. It is easy to learn!
(I teach my life coaching clients on the
phone.)
3. It is empowering! (you
are in control at all times)
4. It is powerful! (it
works!)
5. It can be done
anywhere and
anytime!
Who
Discovered It?
We are indebted to those who discovered
the energy meridians. Roger Callahan took this discovery
and came up with a distinct tapping sequence for various
emotional distresses - migraine, phobia, anxiety - and Gary
Craig built on Callahan's work and simplified it into one
tapping sequence for all
emotions.
ALL TAPPING YOU DO IS GOOD FOR YOU.
Any tapping you do stimulates the meridians,
relaxes you, calms you and makes you feel a
little better, even if you get totally the
wrong opening affirmation and the original
problem has not yet shifted.
Just try again with a different start up
phrase, or think about what the truth about the
problem might be.
