HOW EFT WORKS
It is a therapeutic method that draws from the wisdom of acupuncture but uses no needles. Instead, it involves a gentle tapping process using the fingertips, particularly three fingers, to rhythmically press the body’s meridian points, primarily on the hands and face.
These points are strategic junctures in the body’s energy system, pathways through which life force flows and circulates. Tapping on these meridians while focusing on emotional or physical discomfort releases energy blockages that contribute to distress.
The technique of EFT Tapping is a form of biofeedback to the body’s energy system. While tapping on these meridian points, people focus on the emotional or physical issues at hand, verbalizing their feelings. This personalized approach is crucial as it tailors the tapping to the individual’s emotional needs. The impact of EFT on the brain is profound. Science shows us that tapping while concentrating on a specific issue can modify how the brain processes emotional information.
This is due to Tapping’s ability to send signals to the part of the brain involved in regulating emotions and the fight-or-flight response. By doing so, EFT helps recalibrate the brain’s response to stress, leading to a reduction in anxiety and an increase in emotional calmness.
The client’s own words and affirmations, used during the tapping sequence, reinforce the positive effects on the brain’s neuropathways and alter the brain’s habitual reactions to stress, leading to reduced anxiety and a heightened state of calm.
EFT Tapping empowers individuals to take an active role in their healing process, utilizing the body’s innate energy mechanisms to initiate positive change. Now Science-based, with over 400 peer reviewed studies to document it’s efficacy!
