Emotional Freedom Technique
EFT is a classified “Power Therapy”; a relatively new dynamic that has emerged within the field of psychotherapy. Power Therapies are known by this term because they are reported to work rapidly and efficaciously. EFT has been developed from the ancient Chinese meridian energy system, and is often referred to “emotional acupuncture” without the needles.
EFT works on the principle that all negative emotions are the result of a disruption in the body’s energy system. These disruptions, or blockages are cleared by applying tapping movements on the end of the body’s energy meridians, while thinking of the issue that intends to be resolved. The combination of physical stimulation and intentional thought sends pulses of energy to rebalance the body’s energy system in relation to those specific issues.
EFT works to shift energy in order to reroute the brain’s conditioned negative response to a particular issue. The therapy is based on the theoretical understanding that the body is a dynamic “energy configuration”, where thoughts, emotions and memories are interrelated in an information feedback system with our subjective and physical experiences. The energetic intervention of stimulating meridian points, helps influence negative responses and limiting thoughts and beliefs, that get in the way of success, health, happiness and inner peace. EFT is an empowering self-help tool that you can use in all areas of your life.
