What is EFT?
The process I use is called the Emotional Freedom Techniques, also known as "EFT" or "tapping". It’s a new way to completely eliminate ALL of your stress, no matter what may have caused it, how long you've had it, or how severe it is. It works fast and is permanent. It is an energy based technique and falls into the category known as "Alternative". All that EFT really does is to address our underlying disrupted energetic patterns, with the goal of bringing balance and harmony to our energetic field.
It is similar to acupuncture, except without the needles. EFT taps into the energy in our bodies and then discharges the emotional distresses we acquire on life's journey. Science has proven that our bodies are made up of energy, so it only makes sense to work with this energy.
The Subconscious Mind At Work
When we experience any negative event, the subconscious mind records, stores, and accesses it when it's time to activate it for our safety. However, after the initial event is over, this usually isn't to our benefit. What EFT does is to tell the mind that we are safe and it can stop running an obsolete protective program.
EFT heals emotional problems by literally undoing the damage from the past. It does this by restoring the balance of the energy system and neutralizes emotional conflicts at their source, which then allows the body and mind to resume their natural healing abilities.
- EFT often works where other methods have failed.
- EFT is "user friendly."
- EFT usually produces rapid, long-lasting results.
- EFT involves no drugs or invasive techniques.
- EFT is easy for anyone to learn and can be applied by yourself.
This is a new paradigm in restoring order in your life because it no longer takes months or years of therapy and boxes of tissues to resolve problems. With EFT, specific issues can often be dissolved in minutes - forever! The beauty of EFT is that ANYONE can learn how to apply it on themselves. And since it is known worldwide, you can easily find a practitioner to work with you. Even mental health professionals and doctors are discovering EFT!
How EFT Works
EFT is an energy technique that is based on the same energy points as acupuncture. EFT has even been called, "acupressure for the emotions". In oriental medicine, the idea of energy meridians has been around for thousands of years. So what may seem like a new idea is really a tried and true one. Once you've learned EFT, it will become an invaluable tool you can use whenever you are stressed.
Here’s how it works:
There are 14 energy pathways
in our bodies called energy meridians. All of our negative emotions,
like anxiety, hurt, anger, shame and so on, are due to a blockage in
one or more of these energy meridians.
These energy blockages
are linked to memories of painful events. It is not the memory itself
that is painful. Rather, when we think of the memory, the associated
energy blockage gets activated, which then causes the negative,
painful emotions.
Typically, when you think about a problem and then perform the technique, the distress level will decrease in substantial leaps, neutralizing discomfort and unpleasant symptoms in just minutes. The results are predictable and can easily be replicated by anyone who knows the protocol. EFT can easily be taught as a self-help tool to anyone in just one session.
EFT
works by intentionally activating an energy blockage by "tuning in" to a painful memory or your feelings about it. (Just like the example of the yellow house story explained below.) It
is essential that the energy blockage remains activated the whole
time you are tapping in order to completely clear it. Therefore, you
have to keep your attention focused on the memory and negative feelings
while tapping until they are gone. While the energy blockage is activated, you verbalize key elements of the issue (see NOTE below) while you tap with your fingertips on a standard
set of 5 easily learned acupressure points. (You can see the points on a chart located on the bottom of the How to do EFT page.)
(NOTE: Here's a really nice thing about EFT - When necessary, we don't have to relive the event by talking about it. Sometimes verbalizing your event can make it worse. EFT is not about re-traumatizing you. If your stress is the result of a traumatic event that is to difficult to verbalize, you don't have too. Because it's already in your mind, EFT works just as good when you need to be silent.)
What Can It Do?
Emotional Freedom Techniques is a process that works with the mind-body energy system. It is one of the most effective ways to balance the body's energy system that is available today. EFT has been proven clinically effective as a simple yet powerful way of releasing all kinds of emotional and physical issues.
You can try it on most anything that limits you from being who you want to be or feeling how you choose to feel.
EFT is effective for the following emotional problems / issues:
No Willpower Required
EFT therapy does not need willpower to be effective.
After working through an issue using EFT, you feel different and you
actually are different. New thoughts and behaviors are now natural and allow you to act in healthy ways.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could just eliminate the hold your issues have on you? What if the “Big One” in your life became so small, that you rarely ever thought of it again, and if you did, that it wouldn't bother you anymore?
With this simple procedure, people experience reliable, reproducible results up to 95% of the time.
Time is NOT a Factor
It doesn't matter how long you've had your distress, 5 minutes or 50 years, EFT will still work. The emotional pain of all those distressing memories and feelings can be gone.
Should they ever enter your mind again, you can now think of them as something that just happened, but is now over, never to bother you again.
This is the way it was meant to be.
Memories: The Culprit
Memories are only past events to the conscious mind, but to the subconscious mind, they are current events happening every moment of everyday. Here's an example of what I mean:
The Yellow House:
Let's suppose that when you were a child, you experienced some sort of
traumatic event while standing in front of a yellow house. Then as you
grew up, every time you saw or went near a yellow house, it made you
nervous, uncomfortable or even distressed. You may not even know why, because consciously you have forgotten about the event, but your subconscious has not. In your mind and body, it's
as if the event is happening all over again. The event replays itself
whether you want it to or not because it's a self preservation or protective program that gets activated by the subconscious mind.
That's
why our negative memories continue to bother us. The great thing about EFT is that it actually "turns off "the distress. Thus, your negative reaction stops and you get the relief you've been looking for. Of course, EFT doesn't make you forget the past, it just takes the unwanted "charge" out of it.
How Effective Will EFT Be For Me?
Most everyone knows that no one process works for every person, but I will say that I get over a 95% success rate. I am so confident that you will see results, that if you don't, it will cost you nothing.
If you want to be rid of any undesirable emotions or feelings about someone, something, some event, or even yourself, then why hang on to them any longer? This technique can release all of them and give you emotional peace instead. You can become the person you always wanted and knew you could be.
I have seen people where an area of their life is so disrupted, that it's hard for them to function. They want to live a "normal" life, but cannot. They are at their wits end and don't know where to turn. I'd like to assure you, EFT can give you the hope you've been looking for.
Give EFT a fair chance to see if it will work for you. If it doesn’t, all you will lose is some of your time.
EFT is elegantly simple, powerful and safe. While the idea of tapping may sound unusual, unbelievable or even ridiculous, people are surprised by EFT’s undeniably wondrous results. So even though the concept and process of EFT is no doubt foreign to you, please don't prejudge it. It often works when nothing else will.
