What is EFT?
Emotional Freedom Technique
EFT is an emotional form of acupuncture except that we don't use needles. Instead, we tap with the fingertips to stimulate certain meridian energy points while the client is "tuned in" to the problem. We are still learning why EFT works so well. It centers around the profound effects of the body's subtle energies using the theory that "the cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system."
The subtle energies that circulate throughout the body have been largely ignored (until recently) by western scientists. As a result, our use of them for emotional and spiritual healing has been sparse at best. With EFT, however, we consider these subtle energies to be the front running cause of emotional upsets. As a result, it is not uncommon to generate results that are FAR beyond those of conventional methods. Further, EFT often provides relief for a very wide range of physical symptoms.
EFT is a Doorway to the new Healing High-Rise. It is where a growing number of newcomers to this exciting field get their start. There are now thousands of practitioners using EFT throughout the world.
Compared to other techniques, EFT is usually quite gentle and substantial relief is often achieved with little or no pain. This is not true for everyone, however. Some people's issue are so intense that the mere mention of them causes emotional or physical pain.
