Energy tapping, also known as energy psychology and based on the Chinese art of acupuncture and instead of needles, 2 fingers are tapped on the meridian point.
Soldiers, years ago found small minor injuries on specific points cleared up old injuries. Chi, ki, prana and life energy
The body regenerates every 4 years and a new liver every 6 weeks
Becker = the meridian points are electric conductors. The acupuncture needles actually short-circuit the electromagnetic current in the meridian.
There are 2 types of problems: the events in your life that cause energy imbalances (painful memories and feelings of inadequacy) and psychological reversals (recalling and reliving traumas – like divorce, that occurred)
It takes an external experience to disrupt your energy system. Another eternal experience is required to balance it
Emotions can be passed on through generations with DNA (no proof yet). Neuropeptides, the chemical correlates of thought become detectable when a thought occurs. These Neuropeptides are also found in the stomach, kideys and liver (a thought field, Roger Callahan). Therefore, thought disturbances can affect these organs
What is the Emotional Freedom Technique?
The Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT, is the psychological acupressure technique I routinely use in my practice and most highly recommend to optimize your emotional health. Although it is still often overlooked, emotional health is absolutely essential to your physical health and healing – no matter how devoted you are to the proper diet and lifestyle, you will not achieve your body’s ideal healing and preventative powers if emotional barriers stand in your way.
EFT is very easy to learn, and will help you:
• Remove Negative Emotions
• Reduce Food Cravings
• Reduce or Eliminate Pain
• Implement Positive Goals
EFT is a form of psychological acupressure, based on the same energy meridians used in traditional acupuncture to treat physical and emotional ailments for over five thousand years, but without the invasiveness of needles. Instead, simple tapping with the fingertips is used to input kinetic energy onto specific meridians on the head and chest while you think about your specific problem – whether it is a traumatic event, an addiction, pain, etc. — and voice positive affirmations.
This combination of tapping the energy meridians and voicing positive affirmation works to clear the “short-circuit” – the emotional block — from your body’s bioenergy system, thus restoring your mind and body’s balance, which is essential for optimal health and the healing of physical disease.
Some people are initially wary of these principles that EFT is based on – the electromagnetic energy that flows through the body and regulates our health is only recently becoming recognized in the West. Others are initially taken aback by (and sometimes amused by) the EFT tapping and affirmation methodology, whose basics you will learn here.
But keep in mind that, more than any traditional or alternative method I have used or researched, EFT works. I have witnessed the results in my patients since deciding to use EFT exclusively in June of 2001. Indeed, because of its very high rate of success, the use of EFT has spread rapidly, and medical practitioners employing EFT can now be found in every corner of the country and world.
Lower Cortisol Levels
A study by Dr. Peta Stapleton, published in 2012 in the Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, found that EFT Tapping lowered cortisol significantly more than traditional talk therapy or resting.
In a randomized, controlled trial, cortisol levels were measured via the saliva of participants before and after treatment. Each group received treatment for 50 minutes and cortisol was measured in their saliva before and after as well as psychological symptoms. The EFT Tapping group had a 24% drop in cortisol, while the non-treatment group and sympathetic listening groups only had a 14% drop in cortisol.
How Can I Use Tapping in My Life?
Millions of people are settling for lives filled with poor health and emotional baggage.
Not knowing how to achieve the joyful and satisfying lives they desire, they’re stuck accepting a lifestyle of emotional trauma, chronic physical pain, compulsions and addictions, or perhaps just an empty feeling inside, leading, as Henry David Thoreau famously said, lives of quiet desperation.
Does this sound familiar to you? Is there something holding you back from enjoying your life?
If you’re like many people, you may feel trapped, caught in this cycle. You’re tired of feeling sad, depressed, anxious, discontent, and unwell. You’d like to grow, flourish, and thrive, putting the past in the past. You want to be your best, living a life that is filled with peacefulness, joy, and fulfillment, from day to day and moment to moment.
Tapping can be used on a daily basis to reduce the stress and anxiety that is interfering with your happiness and well-being. You can use Tapping to help you fall asleep at night, to help you overcome your paralyzing fear of driving, and everything in between.
Many people also use Tapping in combination with protocols from their doctor or therapist, so make sure to let any of your health professionals know what additional steps you’re taking to support your wellbeing.
