What is EFT – Emotional Freedom Techniques?

Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT as it is more commonly known is an up and coming therapy with a wide range of applications. Based on the Meridian system as used by the Chinese for thousands of years it is capable of treating mental, emotional and physical issues. It is fast gaining popularity through shows like Richard &Judy, The Good Morning Show and Extreme as well as receiving much positive press in magazines such as Zest, Hello, Daily Mail and the Times. It has been described as ‘psychological acupuncture, but without the needles’ and is quick and easy to learn.

Gary Craig’ s (the founder of EFT) website www.emofree.com is the best site for more information on EFT and you can download the free manual from there.

EFT is a powerful toolbox of emotional healing techniques. It can relieve the affects of trauma, PTSD, phobias, grief, anger, guilt, anxiety, etc. It is also capable of dramatically relieving many physical symptoms (pain, headaches, allergies, and more). It is based on the discovery that the cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.

With remarkable consistency, EFT relieves symptoms by a routine which employs tapping with the fingertips on various body locations while focusing on the issue/ problem.

This tapping serves to balance energy meridians that become disrupted when the client thinks about or becomes involved in an emotionally disturbing circumstance. The actual memory stays the same, but the charge is gone. Typically, this result is lasting. Cognition often changes in a healthy direction as a natural consequence of the healing.

EFT actually has its genesis in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The ancient Chinese, and many other ancient cultures, believed that we all have an “energy body” and that energy flows through this body along lines called “meridians”. They believed that “blockage” in the meridians caused illness. EFT is based on the discovery that when we combine emotional/mental work with stimulation of meridian points, the body and mind appear to work together to gently and quickly heal many psychological and physical problems.

History

Gary Craig developed EFT around the early 90’s; it continues to be refined by many people to this day. It is one of the many forms of METs (Meridian Energy Techniques) now available, and perhaps one of the easiest to learn. Originated from TFT (Thought Field Therapy), which was discovered by acupuncturist and psychologist Dr Roger Callahan in the 80’s. While Callahan developed the basic concept and structure, Craig had the vision to refine it and make it accessible to everyone. He also, along with many other therapists working in this field, began to realise the broader possibilities for EFT. As a therapeutic technique there is little else to equal its simplicity and effectiveness. Many experienced therapists now report typical success rates of 80-95% for many conditions. The immediate history of EFT is short; its future looks to be much longer. Recently a variety of scientific journals have published articles on effectiveness of EFT. For eg. a controlled study is a available in the September 2003 issue of the Journal of Clinical Psychology.

Over 70 years ago Einstein brought us his famous equation E=mc2. Simply stated this means that everything (including our bodies) is composed of energy. This is so widely accepted that not one scientist on the planet disagrees with it. Until recently, however, it has gone unnoticed by the psychotherapy profession. This is true even though energy related procedures have now been clinically demonstrated thousands of times to dramatically reduce the sting of traumatic memories, grief, anger, phobias and almost any emotional ailment you can name (see www.emofree.com). Further, it is usually rapid, long lasting and relatively gentle. It often works where nothing else will.

The Basic Recipe

Gary Craig offers a free beginners EFT manual on his web site that describes details of how to use and apply his treatment technique. While the technique is simple and effective, we recommend you receive a thorough training in its use by visiting Gary’s web site, www.emofree.com, to complete his tutorial and certification training and by attending classes offered by trained AAMET Energy Therapists.

Other Applications of EFT

The most frequently asked question from clients and students is…. “Can I use EFT for another problem other than anxiety?”
The answer is most definitely YES! See below for other problems and conflicts that EFT treatment has resolved.

Anxiety Relief:
EFT can successfully alleviate acute anxiety attacks, generalized anxiety, and the fear of public speaking. The duration of the problem does not seem to matter when it comes to EFT’s effectiveness. However, some anxiety disorders are more complicated than others and have several layers that need attention.

Phobias:
In addition, EFT has an impressive record when it comes to neutralizing specific phobias such as claustrophobia, fear of needles, elevators, spiders etc. By tapping the endpoints of the meridians while tuning in to the problem, the “congested energy” is “metabolised” and the anxiety dissolves.

Guilt, Shame and Low Self-Esteem:
EFT relieves guilt and shame by targeting specific events and beliefs underlying these feelings. Clients are empowered to mature emotionally by integrating what they have learned from past actions. The negative limiting beliefs we hold about ourselves (such as I’m not worthy, I don’t deserve success, I’m not lovable) that support poor self-esteem can be transformed with EFT.

Pain Control/Physical Ailments:
Regardless of the medically documented structural damage shown in x-rays, MRI’s or blood tests, EFT has been successful in alleviating pain and rebalancing disease in the body. It can accelerate healing, improve circulation of energy, reduce muscle tension and address the emotional states that may have contributed to the onset of any physiological condition. EFT success stories include treatment for migraines, chronic back pain, post-surgical pain/bleeding/swelling, fibromyalgia, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, PMS, allergies, hypoglycemia, sinus problems, hemorrhoids, lactose intolerance and more. Again, the duration of the problem is irrelevant when it comes to EFT’s effectiveness.

Smoking Cessation:
Smokers use cigarettes as a substance to tranquillise and quiet inner turmoil or anxiety. EFT can effectively eliminate the urge to smoke, alleviate physiological and psychological withdrawal symptoms, and neutralize environmental relapse triggers. All chemical dependency issues can be treated with EFT, including alcoholism, cocaine addiction, and dependency on prescription medications.

Sports Performance:
Athletes are successfully using EFT to reduce muscle tension, conquer performance anxiety, and neutralize all other psychological blocks that may impede peak performance. When you watch professional athletes, you can see how their minds can trick them into reducing their effectiveness on the field, course or court. These athletes are trained beautifully and have all the skill necessary to compete at high levels. It is usually the stress, tension, fear of failure or success, and the pressure that interferes with their performance. EFT can help any professional or recreational athlete to improve their performance, especially under pressure.

Trauma Relief:
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is characterized by intrusive and recurring thoughts, feelings and images associated with the original traumatizing event. EFT addresses the variety of aspects of the traumatic event by diluting the intensity of the recurring memory and neutralizing the trauma itself. The client can then emotionally reorganize and develop more adaptive attitudes and constructive behaviours to suit his or her current life. EFT also accelerates healing by initiating the forgiveness process.

Weight Loss:
Food is often used as a tranquilliser to anaesthetize deep anxiety and emotional pain. EFT can target and relieve feelings that drive urgent food cravings, compulsive overeating, and sabotaging behaviour. In addition, EFT can relieve distorted body images and effectively prevent relapse weight gain after weight goals have been reached.

Frequently Asked Questions:

(Q) Are there any contraindications to using EFT?
(A) No. EFT is safe, easy to apply, and non-invasive. To date, minimal side effects have been reported other than occasional temporary fatigue. However, this does not mean that you will not experience adverse side effects. If you intend to use these techniques, you must agree to take full responsibility for the results and for your physical and emotional well-being. You may wish to consult a trained EFT practitioner for professional application of these techniques.

(Q) What prevents EFT from working?
(A) If you are a living breathing human or animal, EFT should work on you. Occasionally, the targeted issue is approached too globally which results in ineffective relief. In rare cases, energy toxins such as perfumes or certain foods produce an allergic reaction in an individual’s energy system and retard, or temporarily reverse treatment. Skilled EFT practitioners will spot this block and be able to treat the client effectively. While not perfect, EFT has an extraordinarily high success rate of 85%, even when used by beginners.

(Q) Can I treat myself?
(A) Absolutely, and with a likelihood of a high success rate. If you are motivated, emotionally stable and use good judgment in the problems you address with EFT, you should have good success. It is important however, to know your limits. Sometimes it is difficult to be both patient and doctor. Many people consult EFT practitioners for the objectivity and experience necessary for successful treatment.

(Q) Suppose my illness has lasted decades or is an inherited condition?
(A) EFT alleviates symptoms regardless of duration, aetiology, or family history. The duration of the condition does not seem to affect the outcome or length of treatment needed.

(Q) How long will the treatment last?
(A) It is difficult to predict this outcome in each individual case, however, long-lasting results are routine when using EFT properly and aiming it at the right targets. If the practitioner successfully treats the core of the problem, permanent relief is the norm.

(Q) Can EFT be used for children?
(A) Yes, usually with superb results. Since children are less critical than adults, they have less of a need to understand the inner working of the energy system, and can therefore allow the treatment process to unfold more naturally. It is very safe and effective with children. See Gary Craig’s web site www.emofree.com and search for articles on the treatment of children.

(Q) Why does EFT focus on the negative so much? Can this hurt me?
(A) In order for EFT to work, you must be tuned in to your problem, for example, actually feeling some of the anxiety. This allows the treatment to be "aimed" at the problem, and be neutralized as a result of using the tapping. For a comprehensive study of installing the positive aspects, see Dr. Patricia Carrington’s Choices manual. http://www.eftsupport.com.

(Q) How do I find out more about EFT and related treatments?
(A) Consult Gary Craig’s web site, http://www.emofree.com. In addition to finding a complete tutorial for EFT, you will find hundreds of case histories, philosophical studies, a support e-mail list, and a series of superb training DVD’s for sale. In addition, the web site provides numerous links to related Energy Psychology web sites. I also recommendThe EFT Masters website http://eftmastersworldwide.com/

Please be sure to keep your body well hydrated. Emotional Freedom Techniques and other energy therapies work with the electricity of your body, and water conducts electricity.

What to expect from an EFT face to face session

An Emotional Freedom Techniques session begins with listening to the client, asking the client what they want, and what they want to resolve. This reveals to the practitioner information about the current flow of energy and state of being of the client. It indicates where he or she needs help. Unlike western medicine, the emphasis is not on diagnosing or fixing or curing, but on harmonising, balancing and finding a way with the client to experience healing. All disease and distress begins with blockages of energy, and with EFT the practitioner and client tap the specific energy points while tuning into to the issue to restore the harmonious flow, without creating additional stress in the client's mind about the condition. The process enables energy to flow through the client's body and reawaken its natural healing ability.

Together we work with what is on your mind, formulate a plan of action, and map a process for you to discover your treasures and healing.

As simple as this technique is, it yields amazing results physically, as well as emotionally. It is effective in relieving stress, anxiety and pain; stiff, spastic, or strained muscles and joints; respiratory conditions; appetite imbalance; and reproductive difficulties. It has a dramatic effect on emotional problems, and people frequently have experiences of spiritual integration during or after a session. Stress is alleviated and the client leaves feeling much more centred and relaxed. For some it opens the “doors of possibility” and allows them to achieve their goals effortlessly. Although for chronic conditions several sessions might be needed, improvement is usually experienced after only one session.

What to expect from an EFT phone session

Once we have booked a telephone appointment, your practitioner will call you at the appointed time. An Emotional Freedom Techniques session begins with listening to the client, asking the client what they want, and what they want to resolve. This reveals to the practitioner information about the current flow of energy and state of being of the client. It indicates where he or she needs help. With EFT the practitioner and client tap on themselves specific energy points while tuning into the issue.

There are many advantages to doing EFT on the phone.

• Can be done at any time...especially useful when the problem is right at hand, such as a panic attack.
• No need for client to drive to an appointment.
• Practitioner can do it out of his/her home.
• Without the many distractions of being away from home, both the client and practitioner can tune into issues with great accuracy.
• The process enables energy to flow through the client's body and reawaken its natural healing ability.

Curious about EFT… This ongoing group runs at The Wellington Square Natural Health Centre, Hastings and is open to anyone with an interest in EFT at any level. It gives you the opportunity to use EFT on yourself (bring all your fears, aches, pains, anxieties, phobias), see trainer demos and further develop your skills and experience in this exciting technique.

EFT Group Sessions are a great way to get the benefits of EFT and may provide a budget alternative to personal EFT sessions. Group EFT work makes use of the EFT concept of Borrowing Benefits

Teamwork Borrowing Benefits allows someone with little or no experience in EFT to tap along while someone else who is undergoing EFT (e.g. in a session, seminar, group or video) and experience profound benefits. This is true even though the issues being tapped on appear to be widely different.

This means that you may attend an EFT Group session with any issue you would like help with. Remember EFT works for every emotional or physical issue you may have been labelled with.

These EFT Groups session are not support groups. You are not there to share your issue and are under no obligation to do so. These EFT groups are to get practical results to improve your situation.

This support group is free for all those who have completed an EFT level 1 workshop or higher. Please contact us to confirm participation.

The support group has been setup to help those who want to continue to collapse old habits, release negative patterns and become a powerful force of change in our world. The group meets to bring greater harmony and delight into our lives. Doing EFT in a group seems to enhance the effects. The collective energy helps clear blocks fast. We also do a fair amount of surrogate tapping and have had amazing experiences.

We meet once a month on the first Sunday of each month for 1½ hour. If you are interested in joining us, it would be great, or as Gary would say awesome. I think it would really benefit the group and we can create a community of loving EFT’ers.

Maths Teacher, J T

Thank you for the Saturday's workshop and your enthusiasm, generosity, patience and hospitality. EFT is without a doubt the most amazing tool towards liberation and fulfilment, and I feel like I've only just scratched the very surface of the user manual.

It's all very exciting, which is all to do with you, the teacher, and your contagious love for life - thank you.

Mother and Therapist, O B H

Thank you, Thank you for being you, for doing what you do so tirelessly and for giving me the opportunity to Return to Joy! You are truly an inspiration and I thank you and love you with all my heart!

EFT Practitioner and Nutritionalist, C T

After seeing the movie on EFT; Try it on Everything, I just had to let you know that our one to one sessions are a million times better, It is incredibly powerful working with you.

Shiatsu Practitioner and Trainer, V D

Thanks once again for coming to the rescue on Wednesday. I felt so much better yesterday and feel even better today. In fact it’s the first time I haven’t felt nauseous in the morning for a few weeks!!!… Mainly I wanted to share with you that I feel really really good.

Anyway thanks once again for being so open and intuitive and clear. Your commitment to being True and living Consciously is something I feel very grateful for as I certainly reap the benefits.

It’s made such a difference to not feel ill. I’ve been feeling a lot more excitement building up now… it’s like I’ve opened the door to the future.

Mummy to be - D L

When I got up this morning I walked around for 10 minutes before realising that I had NO pain in my left ankle and was walking normally. I was convinced that I had severely damaged my achilles tendon and was going to hobble for months before I could walk again! Amazing, and thanks.

Teacher - J T

I felt quite tearful when I left your house, but it was "good" tearful. I was thinking about my "coming home" and had a strong sense of coming from a place of love and having lots of love to give - and it's where I want to be. The tears were happy ones (because I'm on my way home) and a bit sad - because I came from a place of love as a child and got very lost for a very long time. It's good though.

Admin Officer - M C

I just wanted to say thank you soooo much for the weekend. It was a great and interesting two days and you made me so welcome. You are a fantastic, generous and intuitive tutor and mentor. I felt disappointed that I was unable to say any of this, but as you are aware, I felt quite overwhelmed with emotion. Still don’t quite understand what happened…. Can’t wait to try out some EFT….

(EFT level 2 attendee) - M M

I’ve been trying to find a way to express in just a few words, the effect that you, Jin Shin Jyutsu and EFT have had on my life, but it is so hard to describe such an experience. At our first Jin Shin Jyutsu session I experienced something very profound and beautiful and changes have been occurring ever since, inside, outside and on all levels – physically, emotionally and most definitely, spiritually.

EFT has been such a joy. At first I was skeptical and the concept of "energy psychology" was new and strange to me. However, I decided to keep an open mind and explore. I practiced every day, or whenever something came up that offered an opportunity to tap on it. Nobody could have prepared me for the results I received. Recollections of past experiences came bubbling up bringing a whole range of emotions - memories of lost loves, friends, places and events. Now and then something "big" and "heavy" would surge up and tapping through it all, I began to make sense of myself – who I am, and why. After the first EFT Support Group, I worked deeply on gratitude, as well as forgiveness. The results have been amazing, particularly when people I have had problems relating to have approached me, reflecting warmth, love, forgiveness and kindness. I have experienced a huge change in my relationship also with myself. I have realized how my inability to love myself was directly reflected back at me and was the cause of so much sadness in my life. Now, each day, I continue on my personal inner journey and it’s incredibly exciting! I'm even feeling grateful for all the painful experiences and troubles of my past, because of the wonderful results I'm getting as I work on myself! Life still has its ups and downs as it must be, but the way I perceive it has changed. I'm rediscovering what a delight life can be!

Thank you, again and again, Ranjana, for being you, for being in my life and for helping me to find the joy in being me.

Thank you Ranjana! Have just returned from the London EFT Masterclass (2008). It was a very good experience...I was so happy to learn how complete and thorough my own knowledge of EFT was. I could see how the training you provide has given me so much depth...I found that at the Masterclass there little that was new to me. Quite Amazing.

M D November 2008

My background is science and I have worked as a design engineer. The first time I encountered EFT I thought it was absolutely bizarre. It was so peculiar that I believed that it would never work and even laughed. My views changed rapidly once I experienced the results. Using it has led me to become more confident and secure about myself with a much more positive attitude. I have used it on many people and most have benefited. In some cases EFT can produce positive life-changing effects in only a few minutes, from the removal of pain to the relief of those day-to-day problems that weigh us down and even to long standing problems of 30 years or more. It always amazes me that something so simple can be so effective.

EFT Level 3 Practitioner S G

We’ve tapped and we’ve TATTED all over the place,
And sometimes we’ve run to keep up with the pace,
When we meet altogether we have a great time,
All due to this lady, who really does shine,
She’s put us in places we don’t want to be,
She’s fed us at lunchtime and given us tea,
Her home is a pleasure to visit for all,
With views to the sea and a loo in the hall,
She loves her bright colours and wears socks with toes,
She looks really great in her colourful clothes,
And somehow everything feels just right,
For we’ve sat in her sunshine and bathed in her light,
She’s led us down paths where we may not have trod,
So let us give thanks for our own gift from God.

EFT Level 3 Practitioner J G wrote this after she completed her Level 3 Training

…THANKYOU for all your love, care, teaching, patience, wisdom, and light…. Now, I can see where I am now clearly and it feels like I’ve gone home :-) I consider myself so fortunate you've been my EFT master....You’ve opened up my world and made it bright x…

This resource puts together a 3-step process that you can use with yourself or clients to unravel their dreams and so bring the dreams to life.

As Henry Thoreau wrote,
“If you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams, and endeavour to live the life you have imagined, you will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. You will pass an invisible boundary: new, universal and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within you and you will live with the license of a higher order of beings. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundation under them”.
Happy Dreaming and Manifesting.
