ABOUT EFT  EFT belongs to a new class of treatments referred to as Energy Psychology,  and was developed by Gary Craig, a Stanford-educated engineer, who has  dedicated his life to teaching people how to use EFT to overcome their  emotional / psychological blocks to happiness and wellbeing. I am very  grateful to Gary Craig for all that he has given to the world through this work.  from EFT founder Gary Craig's website...  "EFT is based on a new discovery that has provided thousands with relief  from pain, diseases and emotional issues. Simply stated, it is an emotional  version of acupuncture except needles aren't necessary. Instead, you  stimulate well established energy meridian points on your body by tapping on  them with your fingertips. The process is easy to memorize and is portable so  you can do it anywhere. It launches off the EFT Discovery Statement which  says... "The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy  system."    And because our physical pains and diseases are so obviously connected  with our emotions the following statement has also proven to be  true...  "Our unresolved negative emotions are major contributors to most physical  pains and diseases."  This common sense approach draws its power from (1) time-honored Eastern  discoveries that have been around for over 5,000 years and (2) Albert  Einstein, who told us back in the 1920's that everything (including our bodies)  is composed of energy. These ideas have been largely ignored by Western  Healing Practices and that is why EFT often works where nothing else will." WHY USE EFT ? Emotional Freedom Techniques Emotional Freedom Techniques, (EFT) is an easily learned system that can be used daily to eliminate blocks in any area. Where did EFT come from? EFT has its roots in ancient Chinese medicine and the modern science of Applied Kinesiology. EFT as we know it today, was developed with the pioneering work done by Stanford Engineer Gary Craig in the early 1990's. How does EFT work? The basic theory is that the cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system. EFT restores the body’s natural balance, removes the energy disruption and thereby removes the problem. With remarkable consistency, EFT relieves symptoms by a scientific routine of tapping with the fingertips on specific points on the energy meridians, which neutralizes disruptions in your body's electrical system. Do you have to believe in EFT for it to work? Absolutely not. EFT works whether you believe in it or not. Often works where nothing else will Rapid, long lasting and gentle No drugs involved Easily learned by anyone Can be self applied What can be treated using EFT? These techniques have been used successfully by thousands of people with a broad range of difficulties. Everything from Anxiety to Zits! How long do the results last? EFT is almost long lasting. Deeply rooted behaviours or beliefs will necessarily take longer to elmininate than more simple problems. How quickly does it work? With some people results are within a few minutes, other more deeply rooted issues take several appointments or weeks. But ultimately these techniques will rid us of the excess emotional baggage so that we are free to get on with our lives and realize the full range of our potential and freedom.
