Emotional Freedom at Your Finger Tips

By Rod Sherwin

The Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT is an approach to healing that has gained attention from medical professionals and laypersons all over the world and often gets results when nothing else has worked. EFT has taken Einstein's discoveries (that everything is energy, including the human body) and married them with the ancient tradition of acupuncture.

EFT is based on the discovery that:
“The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.”

In conventional therapies, thoughts control our emotions so the idea is to change our thoughts to change our feelings and behaviour. However, it is hard work to police every waking thought and what about the unconscious thoughts?

With EFT, we change our energy system, which changes our emotions, and very often results in entirely new thoughts and behaviour. No conscious effort required.

The energy system we use is the meridian pathways that have been known in Chinese acupuncture for thousands of years. There are no needles in EFT; instead we use gentle tapping of the finger tips on easily accessible acupressure points to clear the disruptions. This leads to benefits such as pain relief, lifting of depression, calming anxiety, release of trauma, new thoughts and improved self-image.

EFT has been clinically effective in thousands of cases treating every emotional or physical issue you name such as:

  • trauma and abuse
  • stress, panic and anxiety attacks
  • fears and phobias
  • depression
  • addiction and substance abuse
  • allergies
  • children's issues, and
  • hundreds of physical symptoms including headaches, back pain and breathing difficulties.
  • EFT is also highly effective when applied to all types of peak performance e.g. sports, speaking, sales, acting, etc.

    EFT evolved from Dr. Roger Callahan’s Thought Field Therapy (TFT) more than 10 years ago. EFT Founder Gary Craig applied scientific testing to simplify TFT into a process which is easy for everyone to learn and self apply.

    While the basics of EFT are can be learned for free, the approaches to the various problems can differ widely.

    This is where EFT Practitioners come in - there is an "art of delivery" which is necessary for complicated cases and this involves finding core issues and aspects as well as appropriate reframing and other artistic uses of this flexible tool.

    An EFT Practitioner will coach you through issues in the most gentle, tearless way possible and test to be sure the results are complete. With the help of an EFT Practitioner, you achieve results in a few sessions that take years with more conventional therapies.
