Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)
'A universal healing aid'
Based on the premise that unresolved emotions can compromise our potential for happiness and health, EFT began as an effective remedy for phobias, addictions and war trauma.
Before long, EFT was providing relief for migraine headaches, sexual abuse trauma, and a wide assortment of everyday ailments. Fascinated by the results, founder of EFT, Gary Craig, said "try it on everything!"
Since then, EFT has grown into a revolutionary healing aid, used by traditional therapists, medical practitioners and alternative healers on everything from weight loss to serious illness. The discovery behind this relief is that unresolved emotional issues are caused by disruptions in the body's subtle energies. These disruptions inhibit our natural ability to heal, leaving us open to nagging fears, chronic pain and terminal illness.
Combining this emotional element with the ancient principles of acupuncture, EFT has been able to address the causes of these energy disruptions with a gentle tapping procedure (using the fingertips).
HOW DOES EFT WORK?
Energy meridians that run through our body can be blocked or disrupted by unresolved emotional issues, thereby compromising our natural healing potential.
Quite often, people are aware of events or memories that trigger emotional discomfort in their lives, but they have not yet connected those memories to the symptoms of disease in their bodies. Using EFT, it is possible to revisit the event(s) in question, and balance the disturbed meridians. Properly done, both emotional anguish and the physical symptoms often subside.
Although based on acupuncture, EFT has simplified the realignment process by gently tapping on key meridian points on the head, torso and hands. traditional acupuncture needles are not necessary in this process.
Although the basic EFT procedure has shown astonishing relief for a wide variety of symptoms, advanced EFT application is usually necessary for more complicated cases. The best EFT practitioners have learned the techniques available for uncovering core issues, and approaching them with minimal amounts of emotional pain.
The image below shows how the meridian system looks. It is a computer-enhanced version of an image produced at the Necker Hospital in Paris in a joint study with the Cytology Laboratory at the military hospital.
A Radioactive tracer was injected into acupuncture points and then a photo was taken with a gamma camera to see where it would go. It followed the pattern of the acupuncture meridian system. This confirms the existence of the meridian system to science. it also discovered another crucial fact. They found that the slower the energy (called chi to the Chinese), passed through the meridians the less healthy was the person involved.
When the energy was flowing at optimum speed and balance the subject was in good health.
The energy, the chi, is information that includes details about a problem or imbalance and the instructions on how to respond. The chi also carries instructions that maintain balance and harmony and when this communication is affected so is the balance and harmony and the body becomes dis-eased. the communication process has slowed down and unless action is taken to clear the system of this blockage, then ill-health will continue. This is probably also one reason why people who are ill are more open to other illnesses.
The medical professions agree that the vast majority of illness starts in the head through stress, anxiety or negative belief patterns and behaviours. Chemicals move through the body slowly, about 1cm per second, energy moves at the speed of light 186,000 miles per second. Notice when you have a negative emotion and how long it takes to travel from the brain to another part of the body. Is that a chemical response or an energetic one? If most illness is caused by thoughts and emotions is it logical to treat it chemically or energetically?
