Cover the foundations of everything you need to know about using EFT Tapping.
Tapping or tapping therapy is also known as Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
It’s a powerful self-help method you can do for yourself which is a proven holistic healing technique to effectively resolve a range of issues including stress, anxiety, phobias, emotional disorders, chronic pain, addiction, weight control, and limiting beliefs – just to name a few.
Based on the combined principles of ancient Chinese acupressure and modern psychology, you use your fingertips on meridian endpoints of the body, while focusing on negative emotions or physical sensations.
This process helps to rapidly reduce cortisol levels, calming the nervous system and rewiring the brain to respond in healthier ways and restore the body’s balance of energy.
The points used on the body are – Side of hand (KC), top of the head (TH), eyebrow (EB), side of the eye (SE), under the eye (UE), under the nose (UN), chin (CH), collarbone (CB), under the arm (UA) and ribs (R)
Below is the order of steps to take when tapping:
Disappeared completely – well done!
Reduced in intensity – do more rounds of tapping, adjusting the wording
appropriately (e.g. “even though I still feel a bit sad or I have this remaining
sadness, I deeply and completely love and accept myself”)
Changed to something else or in the case of a physical pain, moved to
elsewhere in the body (do further rounds of tapping, adjusting the wording
appropriately)
Increased in intensity – this is relevant feedback and again alter your wording
to fit what you are feeling as you do further rounds of tapping.
8. Stop when you feel relief and ready to move on.
Tapping offers a simple process that leaves you experiencing a sense of calm, peace, joy and freedom. It also offers insights and clarity on any issues you may be experiencing.
It’s fast, painless and effective treatment for many ailments, self-doubts, and diseases. It’s also easy to learn and can be used as a self-help tool which at times can be incredibly effective.
However, there are times when you can not get beyond issues alone and this is when it is much more beneficial to have an EFT practitioner guide you safely and gently to the issues that you may have been avoiding addressing for years especially if trauma is present.
Tapping practitioners experience first-hand the effectiveness of EFT by observing the incredible shifts and releases in clients. Visit this page for testimonials from Happisoul clients.
Reading about the results people have had from tapping therapy may be proof enough for some, however there has also been numerous studies in recent years showing scientifically how tapping affects the body.
In 2012, researchers found that EFT “consistently demonstrated strong effect sizes and other positive statistical results that far exceed chance after relatively few treatment sessions.”
