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. HistoryGary 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 RecipeGary 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.

“Can I use EFT for another problem other than anxiety?” Anxiety Relief: Phobias: Guilt, Shame and Low Self-Esteem: Pain Control/Physical Ailments: Smoking Cessation: Sports Performance: Trauma Relief: Weight Loss: Frequently Asked Questions:(Q) Are there any contraindications to using EFT?
(Q) What prevents EFT from working? (Q) Can I treat myself? (Q) Suppose my illness has lasted decades or is
an inherited condition? (Q) How long will the treatment last? (Q) Can EFT be used for children? (Q) Why does EFT focus on the negative so much?
Can this hurt me? (Q) How do I find out more about EFT and related
treatments? 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 sessionAn 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 sessionOnce 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.

While the information given in Levels 1 and 2 will equip trainees to do quality work, there are other far-reaching refinements, additional information and "art of delivery" issues that cannot be covered adequately within them.

For example.....

TESTIMONIALS |
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, VD
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 - DL
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) - MM
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.
Retired Legal Secretary - FT
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 SG
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.

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.
