EFT Tapping: The Funny Thing That Works

What is EFT?

The Emotional Freedom Techniques - EFT - uses tapping certain points to free our emotional blockages. Perhaps, there is no better time to understand the relationship between emotional problems and health, than now. But, the wonderful thing about EFT is that it demonstrates a technique by which we can get rid of these emotional problems by tapping.

The ancient Chinese Acupuncture system uses a certain Meridian Energy System in its healing process of different ailments. EFT tapping utilizes that very same system to help remove emotional energy blocks.

Does EFT Tapping Work?

Yes, it works. Thousands of people around the world are practicing and benefiting from this wonderful technique. Some of the present applications of this include psychotherapy, treating obsessions and phobias, weight-loss, handling stress and anger, insomnia, quitting smoking and facilitating for success in any field.

The Science of EFT

Modern Psychology confirms that phobias are strong psychological traumas undergone by individuals in recent or obscured past, same as obsessions. There seems to be no logical explanation to these compelling human behaviors, but it is certain that these are the result of strong traumatic experiences of the victims. Modern science does not have a way to release this traumas but it concurs to the cause.

Hypnotism to some extent demonstrated a technique of suggestion to release these blockages through the help of the sub-conscious mind. We as common people rarely consider abstract phenomena as something true or trust worthy, so such things always lack the patronage of the rich or the masses.

With the advent of electronics, demonstration of such abstract things became possible to the masses, so we are slowly starting to wake up to this new reality of biological energy fields, Kirlian Photography and Alpha brain waves.

The Tapping Technique

Acupuncture uses needle punctures in the energy points on the energy meridians to achieve positive result where as EFT uses mild but purposeful tapping on those points for the same results. The focus of EFT is mainly on the release of blocked negative emotional energy into the main energy meridian stream or into the cosmos. This tapping is associated with certain amount of understanding and resolution. To keep the intention in a fluid state a script is used.

The Tapping Script

This script resembles most hypnotic suggestions. Though these scripts are highly customized as per the nature of the malady, it has three basic parts. The first part pronounces acceptance of the present problem as a part of the self, the second part pronounces that this belief is self-limiting and is the cause of suffering and the third part of the script calls for a strong action to release this emotional problem or belief. The pronouncing of the script and the tapping go hand in hand to get the best results.

EFT Training and Certification

The best thing about EFT tapping is that any average individual can learn it. One can even master the intricate things of EFT tapping with some practice. One can self heal or one can heal others. There are many institutes who give training and certification for this.

Conclusion

EFT tapping is a relatively new technique and is in its infancy. It will take much time and effort for the necessary refinement it needs to become an all-round art to prove efficacious in any situation. It is heartening to see the popularity is has gained in a very short time, but the same popularity may be counter productive for the intrinsic development of this science. Sometimes, out of enthusiasm people include their own fancies into a proven system and corrupt the very thing they love. Hopefully, like all other great systems EFT will stand the test of time and come out a winner.
