How Does EFT work?

  • Anger
  • Addictions
  • Allergies
  • Anxiety
  • Blood Pressure Problems
  • Depression
  • Fears and Phobias

Emotional Freedom Technique

Before you throw away your pills and try EFT, you should consult with your doctor. EFT is a safe complementary treatment but it is not meant to replace a medical treatment that you may be currently undergoing.

You’ve heard of acupuncture, haven’t you? Acupuncture uses energy meridians that are located throughout the body. EFT uses these same meridians but does so without using needles. Instead, it uses tapping (with your fingers).


EFT for Depression, Weight Loss, Etc.

To quote Gary Craig, ‘The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.’

What does that mean? Basically, you don’t need to treat the root cause of an emotional problem, you simply have to adjust your body’s energy field to get rid of the emotional impact that a particular event created.

In other words, according to the creator of EFT, you shouldn’t have to spend years in therapy to get over certain issues, a little bit of tapping on particular spots should get rid of the emotional impact, or at least reduce its intensity.
