Empowerment and Inner Balance in the Natural Tradition
EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique
This technique can be simply explained as being a form of acupuncture without needles. It is an emotional transformation/healing technique (for example, for traumas, phobias, grief, anger, guilt, anxiety, etc.) that is also capable of relieving many physical symptoms (aches and pains, headaches and migraines, asthma, etc.).
The theory is : "The cause of all negative emotion is a disruption in the body's energy system." This discovery opposes many deeply anchored beliefs in conventional psychology.
This technique is so effective that one almost always obtains immediate and lasting results and it often brings about relief where other techniques have failed. Its success rate is in the high 80% or better, and its side effects are always positive.
The person gently taps on specific points along the meridians as she focuses on her problem. By tapping, she balances the meridians that are disrupted when she thinks about a negative emotion. Once she is balanced, this person is no longer disturbed by the event, even when she tries! The memory is still there, but the emotional charge is gone.
EFT is a very flexible and creative technique. Thousands of therapists and clients all over the word trust it and use it with great success, even with severe and complex cases.
EFT was developed by Gary Craig, a Stanford Engineer. Gary is neither a therapist nor a psychologist. Personal transformation and healing have fascinated him for thirty years. He is an ordained minister, a master practitioner of NLP and a master practitioner of the Callahan techniques. In fact, many of the EFT concepts originate from Roger J. Callahan's TFT.
