What is Emotional Freedom Technique - EFT?
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) can provide you with emotional and physical relief (e.g., depression, headaches or nausea). Built on the practices of a psychologist in Southern California, Dr. Roger Callahan, tapping along energy meridians is used by the clinician to remove blockages in the electricity circulating your body systems.
Energy circulation disturbances affect your emotional state. EFT focuses on clearing and maintaining your life energy flow. Health and well-being are facilitated by your release of blockages at the emotional, physical and cognitive levels.
Why and How does EFT Work?
The simple and rapid application of EFT and its long-lasting results are a tribute to the usefulness of affirmations combined with the tapping or rubbing of energy meridians. Sequences of mind-body-energy system (spirit) connections enable clearing and cleansing of places within your body those blockages may occur.
How does EFT Work on Emotional Issues?
By labeling negative issues, e.g., jealousy and rating your emotional attachment to it (how intense you feel this emotion) you become aware of how you are feeling. You maintain this awareness as you tap energy meridians to anchor positive messages. The process clears negative energy which is then able to reintegrate with the overall energy body and so maintain emotional balance of your person.
How does EFT Work for Physical Issues?
The energy meridians used in EFT strongly parallel those of acupuncture which highlights the mind-body connection. When emotional energy is blocked, physical systems can become dysfunctional, so clearing of the energy centre can restore balance to the emotion and during this change the physical symptom can be healed too.

EFT is a safe and accessible to all ages. Children who may not yet have the vocab to verbalise their feelings are able to tap themselves or to work with a surrogate, such as Tappy Bear.
