What is Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)?

EFT is based on a new discovery that has provided thousands with relief from pain, diseases and emotional issues.

Simply stated, it is an emotional version of acupuncture without the use of needles. Instead, you stimulate well established energy meridian points on your body by tapping on them with your fingertips.

The process is easy 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.”   And because our physical pains and diseases are so obviously connected with our emotions the following statement has also proven to be true…..   “Our unresolved negative emotions are major contributors to most physical pains and diseases.”    

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. As you will clearly see, conventional healing methods have overlooked the obvious.    

Healthy Skepticism

A new innovation usually meets with skepticism because it violates people’s beliefs. And EFT flies in the face of just about every belief there is about psychology & emotional healing.

Rapid remedies for “difficult” emotional problems are, in some circles, considered impossible & anyone who purports to do them rapidly is labeled a charlatan. “After all,” the belief goes, “these things are deeply ingrained in people & therefore they must take a long time to remedy.”  

Beliefs are very powerful. We fight wars over them. We build monuments to them. Medicine, psychology & political systems are built on them. But, alas, sometimes they aren’t true. We just think they are. Sometimes we believe in fairy tales. If your reaction to this information (as you learn more) seem “too good to be true” then your beliefs will probably already have been violated.

This is healthy & to be expected. New ideas should be subject to rigorous scrutiny. It lends them strength in the long run. You can hold in your hand a major innovation. As you will see, it is based on the soundest scientific principles. But because it is so dramatically different from “conventional wisdom,” it is consistently, and understandably, greeted with skepticism.

EFT is not alone in this. Other innovations have met with similar attitudes.

Here are a few quotes from history :

• “Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible.”are my existing beliefs - Lord Kelvin, President Royal Society.

• “Sensible & responsible women do not want to vote.” - Grover Cleveland, 1905

• “There is no likelihood man can ever tap the power of the atom.” Robert Milikan, Nobel Laureate, Physics 1923

• “Who the heck wants to hear actors talk?” - Harry M. Warner, Warner Brothers Pictures, 1927

EFT is based on the discovery that imbalances in the body’s energy system have profound effects on one’s personal psychology. Correcting these imbalances, which is done by tapping on certain body locations often leads to rapid remedies. By rapid, I mean, most of the problems vanish in minutes!!! (This is especially so when you reduce the problems to specific negative events in your life).

The body’s energy system …….

Our bodies have a profound electrical nature. Any beginning course in anatomy covers this. Shuffle your feet across a carpet and then touch an item made of metal. Sometimes you can see the static electricity that is discharged from your fingertip. This wouldn’t be possible unless your body had an electrical nature to it.

If you touch a hot stove you will feel the pain instantly because it is electrically trans-mitted along the nerves to your brain. The pain travels at the speed of electricity and that is why you feel pain so quickly. Electrical messages are constantly sent throughout your body to keep it informed of what is going on. Without this energy flow you would not be able to see, hear, feel, taste or smell.

Another obvious bit of evidence regarding the Existence of electricity (energy) in the body are the electroencephalograph EEG) & electrocardiograph ECG). These record the electrical activity of the brain & the heart.

These devices have been used by medical science for decades & are the ones you see on TV hospital dramas hooked up to dying patients. When the screen stops “blipping” the patient is dead.

Our electrical systems are vital to our physical health. What could be more obvious? When the energy stops flowing…we die. Ask your Dr about this. No one disputes it.

In fact, civilization has known about this for millenniums.

About 5,000 years ago, the Chinese discovered a complex system of energy circuits that run throughout the body. These energy circuits (meridians), are the centerpiece of Eastern health practices & form the basis for modern day acupuncture, acupressure, kinesiology, reflexology etc.

The Discovery Statement   “The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system”

In examining this statement, it does not say that a negative emotion is caused by the memory of a past traumatic experience. This is important to recognize because that presumed connection of traumatic memories to negative emotions is a mainstay in conventional psychotherapy.

One doesn’t have to relive any painful memories to overcome for EFT to help.

There is little emotional suffering involved with EFT. It is relatively painless.

Only a brief recall of the problem is required (that may carry some discomfort) but that is all. There is no need to relive the pain. In fact, with EFT, generating prolonged emotional discomfort is frowned upon. This is but one example of where EFT is a radical departure from conventional methods. If a disruption in the body’s energy system does not occur, then the negative emotion cannot occur.That is why some people are bothered by their memories and others are not.

The difference is that some people have a tendency for their energy systems to become imbalanced under such a memory, while others do not.
