"The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system."
Gary Craig, creator of EFT

This is a great technique to use for emotional challenges or traumas, diseases, stress reduction, addictions, fears, phobias, weight loss and pain management just to name a few.  It works on both children and adults.

What is EFT? (top)

Emotional Freedom Techniques, developed by Gary Craig and based on the work of Dr. Roger Callahan, works on the mind-energy body to eliminate mental, emotional, physical or spiritual stresses.  Callahan combined acupuncture and kinesiology

Everything is energy and all energy has frequencies.  Sometimes the frequencies we have around us and in our bodies gets blocked, which can cause us stress – emotional, physical, psychological, or spiritual.  EFT helps release blocked energy to give relief from pain, diseases, and emotional issues or traumas.  It is an emotional version of acupuncture except no needles are needed.

EFT is a safe, gentle, non-invasive technique that works on your meridian energy points by tapping with your fingertips on various meridian points.  The process is easy to memorize and is portable so you can do it anywhere at any time.

EFT also brings attention to the limbic system.  Your Limbic system is a network of structures in the brain which are involved in many of our moods, emotions, motivations and memory.

How it works (top)

While tapping on acupressure points along meridians, or energy pathways throughout the body, and working on a specific problem, issue or goal, the mind/body energy system is "straightened out," and the energy becomes unblocked.
