There seems to be so many possibilities for the use of EFT that it could not possibly be effective for them all. It is important to understand how emotions, mind, body and energy system are connected.
While from an anatomical standpoint each can be defined as separate there is no real separation from a physiological point of view. You can not alter one part without the others being affected. The Emotional Freedom Techniques makes use of this connection and so can affect any part of our experience, be it mental, emotional or physical.
Perhaps the most obvious, and common, use of EFT is to treat emotional issues. This can include anything from anger and stress to the grief of losing a loved one or the PSTD symptoms of rape or war trauma. Time seems to be of little consequence to the effectiveness of the treatment.
For some their pain may be 20-40 years or more old, yet still if they focus on the event the emotions are as strong as the day the trauma occurred. For others the feelings may be much less however the subconscious mind now plays out certain limiting patterns to avoid becoming hurt again. Whatever the reason EFT will usually help.
Physical Pain is also commonly connected to emotional pain. This may not always be obvious but is easily illustrated by the example of emotional stress that leads to tight shoulders which can then lead to a sore neck or tension headaches.
I have known people who have had chronic pain for years, in some cases from a accident or surgical injury, be relieved by EFT in minutes where pain medications have failed. While this does not happen every time EFT would be an excellent choice of therapies to try. It has the ability to offer both symptomatic relieve and reach the root energetic, mental or emotional root cause/s.
Fears and Phobias can be treated almost like a party trick many times. It is amazing to watch someone with a life long fear of something when there fear is removed typically in 20-30 minutes. Whether it is a fear or rats, spiders, heights, lifts or even public speaking EFT can help.
I have watched a group of level 1 students clear their fear of snakes together in less than 1 hour. Out of 5 people who where unhappy that a snake might even be in the same building as them, 3 where holding a 4 foot long King Snake, the other 2 where happy stroking it. When applied to the fear of flying or public speaking EFT can have profound results on the potential of an individual within both personal and business contexts. Emotional freedom can even be gained from such severe phobias as agoraphobia. See Treating Phobias for more information.
Success and Abundance are very popular topics. It seams everyone wants to achieve more. It is important to understand that it is out past conditioning, experiences, reading etc that create our subconscious beliefs and so our outward reality. If we can identify what these are we can use EFT to remove old unwanted patterns and create a new reality.
We can even use it to alter our perception of what success and abundance mean to us. As the the old saying goes 'Do not spend year climbing the ladders of success to find it was lent against the wrong wall'. By using EFT we can clear other peoples perception of success and find our own. See the Success and Abundance section for more ideas on how EFT can help you.
Addictions such as smoking, hard drugs, food or even emotional states can be help dramatically by integrating the Emotional Freedom Techniques into a treatment program. EFT can help with both the cravings, and more importantly, the root causes such as feelings of loneliness, depravation, emptiness and anxiety.
Almost every addiction is rooted in the emotions. Once the these emotional states and related past experience are cleared with EFT then the addiction will often fall way on its own without the need for will power or other commonly used myths. See the Stop Smoking section of this site for more detailed information on how to stop smoking.
There are a host of different conditions that EFT can be used to help. These include dyslexia, MS, CFS, depression, allergies and sensitivities as well as many others. As Gary Craig, the founder of the Emotional Freedom Technique, says'try it on anything'. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose.
EFT is easy to learn and safe to use. That said, as with any natural therapy, it is not a replacement for correct medical supervision and should be used in conjunction with proper medical treatment. If you are uncertain about anything always consult a qualified practitioner.
If you wish to learn more about EFT then you have come to the right place. This site is aimed at being an easy to follow guide at teaching everything you need to know to get results or improve your results using the Emotional Freedom Techniques.
There are both Basic and Advanced EFT step by step sections depending on your level as well as a variety of Downloads. For those wanting more visual guidance then Gary Criags DVD's come highly recommended. They can be acquired here.
For more in depth training the EFT Level 1, 2 and 3 workshops are a must. There is something about being in a group with guided supervision that can take your skill and confidence to a whole new level. While I personally got results using a free manual download it was not until I attended a live workshop that I fully appreciated the power of the Emotional Freedom Techniques.
Finally if you are looking at working on a deep emotional trauma or chronic illness it is suggested you seek outside assistance from an experienced practitioner. There is a list of practitioners from around the world as well as other practitioner listings on the links page. You will also find a range of other useful EFT resources here.
