What is EFT
Emotional Freedom Techniques ( EFT) is a version of acupuncture. Instead of using needles, you stimulate the energy meridian points by tapping them with your fingertips. According to Gary Craig the process is easy for you to memorize and is portable so you can do it anywhere.
Emotional Freedom Techniques concept was developed in the US in the 1990's by Gary Craig. Is a simplification and improvement of Roger Callahan's Thought Field Therapy.
What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is the insertion of a very fine surgical needle into specific points on the body. This is a body mind connection based on the theory of meridians. Meridians are channels that are mapped out along the surface of the body. These channels are the interface that connects the mind, emotions and body together.
Of course in order to believe in this theory we have to believe that we are not only a body but we are energy as well. EFT Discovery statements says:
"The cause of all your negative emotions is disruption in your body's energy system"
How do Emotional Freedom Techniques work
By stimulating certain acupressure points, the person is asked to connect to the physical pain, or unpleasant emotion and then this points are tapped. This will allow the person to release this emotions, or pain that in reality is a release of the energy that is trapped .
I have been using EFT since 2004 with great results in my life , and I received the EFT-CC ( Basic EFT Certificate of Completion). The Cd's and EFT courses had helped me a lot in learning the process and through trial and error I found that I could easily tap on everything and get immediate results. I have also found that is important being specific; however, sometimes we do not have the time to seat down and ask ourselves questions.
I have been finding time to myself to ask the questions because if we do not go deep we may find ourselves stuck in a problem without finding the result we would like to. I like to share what I do to get to the core of the problems. I get up in the morning and I right down my inner dialogue, then I divide this dialogue in sentences and write beside it the beliefs that had lead me into it. For example:
- Mary seems to be uncomfortable with me and she does not know how to approach me.
- Belief: I am responsible for other people's feelings; I have to save the world
I start to tap on the belief until I reach 0 and then on the sentence. While we are tapping on the belief things may come out. Gary Gray calls this the different trees of the forest, so you keep tapping until you get to the core of the issue.
In my case many trees came out until I got to core issue: My mother told me that I was responsible for her feelings and that I have to save her. I am really fascinated with this process because in doing this we not only free ourselves from the pain, but we also start to understand how we are creating our life day by day.

Some day the medical profession will wake up and realize that unresolved emotional issues are the main cause of 85% of all illnesses. When they do, EFT will be one of their primary healing tools .... as it is for me." - Eric Robins, MD -
