EFT –
Emotional Freedom Technique
is a relatively new
addition to the field of Mind-body Medicine and Energy Medicine, founded by Gary Craig. It is an easy-to-learn and easy-to-use method that blends
the ancient technique of acupressure with modern concepts of the mind-body
connection and recent brain research.
Like the
Rubenfeld Synergy Method (RSM), EFT
forms a bridge between talk therapies
and body therapies.
It is based on the notion that the reason for emotional stress is an imbalance
in the body’s energy system. It could be described as a non-needle version of
acupuncture, where we stimulate certain meridian points by tapping on them with
our fingertips. Properly done this simple and empowering technique may
considerably shorten the therapeutic process, and it sometimes provides
astonishing relief from physical ailments.
EFT and RSM are both
in alignment with the new scientific discoveries about how the brain and body
are connected and how memory is stored and processed. Either separate or
combined they provide excellent tools in the process of personal growth and
healing.
