I bet you've heard of EFT Tapping - Emotional Freedom Tapping?  And if you have, do you know how to do it?

My purpose here is to, introduce you to Emotional Tapping and an introduction into how it's done.

First off, EFT was invented by Gary Craig, Emotional Freedom Technique founder.  You use your fingertips to tap, on various energy meridian points on your torso and your face. While you are tapping, you remember an event.

What happens, is that your emotional state about the issue often changes dramatically.  Here is an example of this tapping technique.

Let's use an example from your childhood, when you have an upsetting memory. You are getting caught doing something wrong.  You remember the shame of feeling like a bad person?

During the years of your life, you've continually believed something was wrong with you, regardless of whether you are aware that you have that belief.
Here is the way you'd use EFT therapy to clear the disturbing emotions and beliefs you still hold from that event.

You tune into the memory of the event while you tap with your fingers on energy points on your face, head, chest and side of the body.  The most common eight points are used by most EFT practitioners.

While focusing on your memory of the event, and especially on your feelings from the event, you tap on the energy points.  You can also focus on the belief you took from that event. - that you are a bad person, or that something is wrong with you.

The result, is that after you tap while tuned into the event, your reaction to the memory alters.  Your feeling about it can change from ashamed to confident and understanding.  The emotions you feel often transform from resentment, upset, frustrated, overwhelmed - to feeling calm and compassionate.  It is typical to start out feeling insecure and end up feeling confident.

As when you learn any worthwhile skill, you'll start at the beginning and gradually gain expertise.  And, by watching this powerful Youtube EFT video, you just might take the next step to incorporate EFT into your life.
