EFT Tapping
Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT (commonly known as Tapping) is a form of energy psychology. It’s a powerful tool for improving your life on so many levels – emotional, physical, and mental. It has been proven to effectively work on a wide-range of issues:
- anxiety and fear
- PTSD
- phobias
- depression
- stress
- weight loss issues
- financial issues
- and so much more
Based on the principles of ancient acupressure and modern psychology, tapping stimulates specific meridian endpoints while focusing on negative emotions or physical sensations. Combined with spoken words, tapping helps calm the nervous system to bring a balance of energy back into the body and rewire the brain to react more positively. Science has found that by tapping on these points while focusing on something that causes stress, it actually retrains the brain to respond differently.
Tapping works by sending a calming signal to the amygdala, which is a part of the brain that controls our reactions to stressful situations. After tapping for just a few minutes on the meridian endpoints, calming hormones are released into the body and the issue is then neutralized. By reducing stress, Tapping boosts intelligence, resilience, confidence, and overall health because it gets us out of the Fight or Flight stress response.
