What is Emotional Freedom Techniques - EFT?

Emotional Freedon Techniques (EFT), or EFT Tapping as it is sometimes called, is a highly effective and powerful set of techniques for resolving emotional, psychological, and physical problems gently and effectively.

EFT Tapping is based on impressive new discoveries regarding the body's subtle energy system and its connection with our mind, emotions, mental and phsyical health. It has proven clinically effective in thousands of cases for a very wide variety of emotional, psychological and physical issues, often working when nothing else seems to.

It's often said that EFT is like an emotional or psychological form of acupuncture without the needles.

Using EFT Tapping, many issues can be resolved quite quickly, while some issues can be much more complex and take more time to resolve the deeper aspects involved.

The tapping can be used in the moment to let go of negative emotions, or to work with specific issues such as a fear or phobia, or to resolve your emotions around a specific memory. It can also be used for deep transformative work over a longer period, especially when you are working with an experienced EFT practitioner.

How does EFT work?

EFT involves tapping with the fingertips on a sequence of acupuncture points, which are end points of the body’s energy meridians, while talking to stay focused on particular aspects of the issue to be resolved.

The tapping balances the body's energy system, releasing blockages which are linked to negative emotions or discomfort, and the roots of dis-ease within the body.

Tapping shifts energy in your body and changes the way your mind processes information about a particular issue. So tapping while tuned into the issue is like rewiring your mind’s negative response to a particular issue.

As well as using EFT Tapping with you during a session and I will teach you the basics of how you can use it for yourself between sessions. This also means you will have an effective tool for self help anytime you need it in the future.

The basic tapping process can be easily learnt quickly, and can be simple to use when you need it. You can work through many issues on your own when you know how to use it even more effectively. However, for deeper, more complex, or traumatic issues it’s usually best to work with an experienced EFT practitioner.

I otfen combine EFT Tapping with Matrix Reimprinting,which is a technique that uses EFT as part of it. It's a specific way of working with memories, and is a bit like inner child therapy.

All sessions are bespoke and tailored the you, and I often combine EFT Tapping and Matrix Reimprinting with Hypnotherapy, NLP and Time Line Therapy™

EFT Tapping can help with type any emotional or psychological issue. And by working with the mind body connection, it helps with physical issues too.

EFT can helps to resolve negative emotions, emotional distress, traumatic memories, PTSD, and physical pain or aliments. It also helps with any perceived psyhological limitations.

Some of the issues that EFT Tapping has been shown by be effective for, and that I often work with, are issues such as anxiety issues, fears or phobias, OCD addictions, weight and body issues, and the issues underlying depression.

It's also highly effective for personal achievement and supporting you to move forward in your life to get the life you truely want, releasing any blocks that get in the way of you achieving your full potential.
