EFT ™ - Emotional Freedom Technique – A new technique developed by an engineer from Stanford, California, USA in 1995. EFT has proven to be highly beneficial in relieving both emotional and mental disorders and physical conditions: pains, allergies and illnesses.
EFT ™ is a very simple and easy-to-memorize procedure that quickly corrects disruptions in energy, which are the cause of emotional and/or physical disorders.
As stated by Gary Craig ™: “the cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system”. Therefore, given that the cause of our physical pains and illnesses is so obviously connected with our emotions, the following statement has proven to be true: “our unresolved negative emotions are largely responsible for most physical pains and illnesses.”

The practice involves tapping with your fingertips on specific meridian points while talking about traumatic memories and a wide range of emotions..
TAPPING GIVES YOU THE POWER TO HEAL YOURSELF, PUTTING CONTROL OVER YOUR DESTINY BACK INTO YOUR OWN HANDS.
What is a Meridian point?
Simply put, meridian points are certain points that can be mapped throughout the body. Energy circulates through your body along this specific network of channels. You can make use of this energy anywhere in the system.
All negative emotions are felt through a disruption of the body’s energy. The body, like everything in the universe, is made of energy. Restore the body’s energy balance and you will repair negative emotions and physical symptoms that arise from energy disruption. Tapping restores the body’s energy balance and negative emotions are conquered.
How does tapping work?
The basic technique requires you to focus on the negative emotion on your hands: fear or anxiety, poor memory, an unresolved problem, or anything that is bothering you. While maintaining your mental focus on this topic, use your fingertips to tap 5 to 7 times each on 9 meridian points on your body. By tapping on these meridian points, while concentrating on accepting and resolving the negative emotion, you will access your body’s energy , nd restore it to a state of balance.
According to Dr. Dawson Church, “tapping on acupressure sends signals directly to the stress centers of the mid-brain, not mediated by the frontal lobes (the thinking part, active in talk therapy)”.
Because EFT simultaneously accesses stress on physical and emotional levels, add, “EFT gives you the best of both worlds, body and mind, like getting a massage during a psychotherapy session”. In fact, it is EFT’s ability to access the amygdala, an almond-shaped part of your brain that initiates your body’s negative reaction to fear, a process often referred to as the ““fight or flight” response”, which makes it so powerful.
Think of your amygdala as a personal alarm system. When you experience trauma or fear, the amygdala is activated and your body is flooded with cortisol, commonly known as the “stress hormone”. This intricate chain reaction, your response to stress, significantly influences and , sometimes, even causes whatever concerns you, whether it is an illness, injury, emotion or even an external issue, such as a problem with a friend.
It is estimated that 10 million people worldwide have used tapping
