Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) - Mauritius

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a simple yet powerful technique that re-balances the energies of the body, releasing painful and unwanted emotions connected to our past, present or future. The technique was developed by Gary Craig, In essence, it is a psychological version of acupuncture. While in acupuncture we use needles, in EFT there is no use of needles. EFT is designed to directly access the body's energy system by tapping on and into the nervous system, where trauma is held on a cellular level. Working with energy and consciousness in this way enables deep levels of healing to take place very quickly.

The body’s energy system is stimulated and balanced by tapping with fingertips on a specific combination of 14 major meridian points. Meridians are energetic pathways within the body that relay information to the entire system, including the mind. They are interlinked with each other in a continuing energy loop. Traumatic memories and thoughts cause energetic disturbances within the body. Such disturbances are experienced as negative emotion that can limit our functioning, creativity and potential. By removing a blockage from one meridian, the entire circuit automatically clears.

EFT is not about denying, repressing or disassociating from your feelings. It will not mask important symptoms that require medical attention nor will it suppress illness to a deeper level. While focusing on the disturbing feeling or traumatic issue, you are guided to gently tap a specific sequence of meridian points on your body, using your fingertips. These points are connected to your nervous system where all traumas are held... in the cells. With this process, it is not necessary to re-live or re-experience traumatic events.

Typically, the session ends with resolution and most importantly, a neutral emotional response when thought is given to the chosen issue. This tapping technique can be self administered whenever and wherever the need arises. It is very easy to learn and once grasped, it rarely takes more than a few minutes to carry out.

By analogy, think of the meridians as rivers. Upsets in emotional or physical health lead to the equivalent of blockages or overflows in the rivers EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is a simple yet remarkable healing system that reduces the stress that underlies much disease. It has proven itself successful in many scientific studies. It works on a variety of health issues, psychological problems, and performance issues, even those that have been resistant to other methods. It can be learned and applied rapidly, which has contributed to its popularity among millions of people.

One of the EFT practitioners put it very nicely thus:

“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."

Learning EFT Technique:

There are two basic areas to learn EFT

• -the tapping technique and
• -the positive affirmations.

The basic EFT sequence is straight forward and generally takes few minutes to learn. With practice one will be able to perform each round in under a minute. There are number of acupuncture meridians on our fingertips. When we are tapping with fingertips, we are not only tapping on the meridians but also on the points in the fingertips. Traditionally we tap with one hand and with two fingers but we can come out with different creative ways. On each point we can tap 6-7times.And always be connected with the breath.

Tapping is a simple and easy-to-use process where you:

• 1) tune into your body-mind,
• 2) speak a truth about how you feel right now, and
• 3) choose how you’d like to feel…
• 4) all while tapping on specific natural comfort points.

This unique combination helps you shift your physical and emotional energy in the direction of relief… towards feeling really good

Starting in the 1960’s and 70’s with George Goodheart and John Diamond and further refined in the 80’s and 90’s by Roger Callahan, Patricia Carrington, Gary Craig, Fred Gallo, Donna Eden, Carol Look, and many others, the benefits of tapping on the meridian acupoints has been extensively documented. Experience shows that tapping can shift our beliefs and thoughts quickly and with much less pain than conventional therapies.

There are lots of theories on how and why it works, but no one can say for sure. (We just see the positive results.) Scientific studies do show that the electrical resistance in the skin at the meridian acupoints is much lower than the rest of the body. Brain wave studies show energy tapping affects the deep subconscious.

However it works. Tapping seems to activate our body’s innate self-healing intelligence and allows us to transform our lives. Case histories abound showing astounding changes in anxieties, fears, and phobias. Hundreds of thousands of people use it to improve their relationships, their ability to work, and how much they enjoy life.

Quick Relief

Some people report “one minute miracles” where long lasting changes occur in minutes. Astonishingly rapid, permanent relief has “sold” many people on using Tapping for themselves and with others. There are thousands of cases of quick, permanent relief for phobias, physical pains, and more… all using Energy Tapping (EFT). These have been recorded and could be found in many websites dealing with EFT.

“To discover your own authentic strengths and develop them, so that they are strong and resilient… to be able to see life from new, more empowering perspectives… to love and co-create within healthy relationships” - To us, that’s true emotional freedom. And it is what Tapping is really perfectly suited to help you achieve.

EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques in brief:

• EFT is a meridian energy therapy - just like acupuncture, it works directly on the meridian system in the body. But instead of needles, you stimulate the major meridian points by tapping on them or massaging them lightly.

• EFT is a true mind/body healing technique because it combines the physical effects of meridian treatments with the mental effects of focusing on the pain or problem at the same time.

• EFT is a self help protocol, designed for ease of use and so everyone can benefit from Emotional Freedom Techniques without prior knowledge about meridians.

• - As within, so without.

• - No one but we, can walk this path.
• - However, with our skills and experience, we can be compassionate co-travelers, co-creating a better world for all of us
