What is EFT? Emotional Freedom Technique
(EFT) is an epigenetic energy science technique developed by Gary Craig
that works with the mind-body energy system to eliminate all kinds of
emotional, mental, physical and spiritual discomfort.
Described
as "emotional acupuncture," it is one of the most effective ways to
balance the body's energy system that I have experienced.
The
underlining premise of Eastern holistic healing, dating back over 5,000
years, is that all physical, mental and emotional problems originate in
our ENERGY SYSTEM. EFT is rooted in that very principle which
states "The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the
body's energy system."
The reknown scientist, Albert Einstein, told us back in the 1920's that everything (including our bodies) is composed of energy. “We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” Quantum
Physics today proves that we are made of energy and that our thoughts
and emotions, which are energy, form a neural network which impact and
creates our world. We do impact our world and our lives.
So
EFT, also called an "emotional version of acupuncture" (but without
needles), stimulates specific points to all the major meridian systems
on our body though a gentle fingertip tapping method. At the same
time, while tapping, you are guided to explore, express and release
various facets of "emotional issues" by conscious awareness to allow
in new choices. The unifying glue of this technique is unconditional
acceptance of your self.
The beauty of EFT is that ANYONE can learn how to apply it on themselves.
Remember,
if you have a serious health issue, use EFT or any other self-help
technique with common sense. And check with your personal physician or
counselor before discontinuing any medications or adding new protocols
to your existing medical/psychological healthcare. Please read our
disclaimer.
EFT is based on the discovery by Dr. Roger Callahan that emotional discomfort is caused by a disruption in the mind/body energy system.
Dr. Callahan combined ancient oriental (acupuncture) with modern
techniques (kineseology) and developed Thought Field Therapy (TFT).
Gary Craig was trained by Dr. Callahan and then streamlined TFT into
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).
My Logical Explanation: 1) Modern Science dictates that all our reactions & manifestations; mental, emotional and physical
are connected by neural pathways. 2) Western Medicine states that "stress" impacts health and well being. 3) Oriental Medicine states that all disease in the body, first
starts in our energy system, then enters the mind/emotions! If not resolved
in the mind/emotions, symptoms appear on the body. Stress defined.
4) Therefore, if one relieves some of the mental & emotional
stress, it follows that pain in the body also will be relieved.
My Spiritual Explanation: 1)
This method effectively unblocks the energy channels and thereby allows
more life force energy in rebalance & heal. Life Force Energy:
Chi, Prana, Shakti, Holy Spirit, Grace is all considered aspects of the
Universal Source or God/Goddess energy of all religions/spiritual paths. 2)
Epigenetic Energy Medicine is now clinically proving the validity of
prayer, energy modalities & meditation in heallth and healing.
Without
eliminating whatever protocol you are currently using,
no matter what your belief system, consider trying this non-evasive
& amazingly effective energy treatment. You will be your own best
authority about the validity of EFT. You can learn
this technique and apply it to yourself as needed.
Based on the premise, that every symptom & manifestation has an emotional & mental component...everybody!
