EFT - EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUE

Energy Meridian Tapping

by Charyl Ozkaya

One of the most impressive techniques for personal and professional use to neutralize negative emotions is EFT, a form of Energy Meridian Tapping. EFT was founded by Gary Craig, a Stamford Engineer, and based on the Thought Field Therapy of Dr. Roger Callahan. 

The basic premise of EFT is that the cause of all negative emotion is a disruption of the body’s energy field. That is:

If you have a distressing thought, memory, image or experience…

That creates a “zzzzzzt” or disruption in the body’s energy system…

Which creates a negative emotion (guilt, fear, phobia, anger, grief, anxiety, etc.).

By neutralizing that “zzzzzzt” or disruption in the body’s energy system, you will neutralize the negative emotion. You will still have the memory, thought, etc. but it will not have the “emotional charge” for you that it once did.

By simply tapping near the end points of your energy meridians (the same meridians that are used by acupuncturists), while “tuning in” to the problem, you can experience some profound changes in your emotional and physical health. 

EFT has been used successfully with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), phobias, addictions, depression, relationships and even sports performance. Actually it can be used on anything! EFT can help you gain a clearer perspective and a new way of thinking.

It is a simple and easy technique to learn and use. It will even work if you have forgotten a point or if you are not sure of how to word the problem. If you are not having success, there may be an underlying emotional cause that you have yet to address. Keep experimenting.

A private session is the easiest and most effective way to learn EFT. It is amazing how powerful, deep and cleansing a one on one session of meridian tapping can be!

THE EFT TECHNIQUE

THE SETUP

Tapping the “karate chop” point (KC) say:

Even though I feel so stressed_(or other phrase)

I completely and deeply accept myself. (3 times)

or you can also say:

Even though I feel so stressed_(or other phrase)

I completely and deeply accept, love and forgive myself. I'm doing the best that I can. (3 times)

KARATE CHOP POINT

TOP OF THE HEAD & FACIAL POINTS

Eye Brow (EB)

Side of the Eye (SE)

Under the Eye (UE)

Under the Nose (UN)

In the Chin (Ch) 

Then tap the face points:

Then the collarbone point (CB) and the underarm point (UA).

You can start over on the top of the head with the same key phrase for 2 or more rounds.

You can also tap on positive phrases and alternate negative and positive.

Sample phrasing:

ADDITIONAL TAPPING

THE TAPPING SEQUENCE

From the setup phrase, pick key words that represent the problem. For example, “Even though I am so stressed, I completely and deeply accept myself.” The key phrase would be “so stressed”. At each place you tap, say the key phrase. 

The first place to tap is on top of the head.

“Even though I am so stressed, I choose to feel calm and peaceful.”

You could tap “so stressed” for 2-3 rounds, then you could alternate between the two phrases, “so stressed” and “I choose to feel calm” for 1 round, then you could tap “I choose to feel calm and peaceful” for 1 round.

These are suggestions. EFT seems to work even if you forget to tap a point or mix up the points or use different wording, so don’t get caught up in the technique. Have fun with it!
