Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a wonderful 'energy-medicine' tool that releases mental, emotional and physical problems by rebalancing disturbances in the body's energy system.
EFT is based on a new discovery regarding the body's subtle energies. Simply stated, it is an emotional version of acupuncture, except needles aren't necessary. 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 often appear to be connected with our emotions, the following statement has also shown merit:
"Our unresolved negative emotions are major contributors to most physical pains anddiseases."
This common sense approach draws its power from:
- 5,000 years of Chinese medicine practice (which is based upon the meridian energy channels)
- 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 can work where nothing else does.
