3. AMT hat is EFT? W EFT is simple enough to be learnt by anyone in a short period--and put to use immediately. EFT is a simple, rapid and remarkably effective approach to healing emotional disorders that is based on a synthesis of Chinese accupressure and Applied Kinesiology. While it may be difficult to believe, very often quite severe emotional upsets, or any form of disorder that has an emotional component, can be relieved in less than half an hour--sometimes literally in minutes-- using this simple method. This applies equally to recent upsets as well as to longstanding problems (phobias, compulsions and obsessions, negative self-beliefs etc). EFT has a success rate of about 50% with beginners and 95% with practiced users. While more complex cases should be referred to licensed practitioners, the basic EFT technique is easily learnt by anyone and can be immediately applied to relieving one's upsets. This presentation attempts to teach you just how to do that.

4. AMT ow does EFT work? H The cause of every emotional or physical upset is a disruption in the bodys energy system. EFT is based on the premise that the bodys energy system is linked to energy circuits, or meridians, that run throughout the body. The state of these meridians is directly affected by your emotional and physical health. By analogy, think of the meridians as rivers. Upsets in emotional or physical health lead to the equivalent of blockages or overflows in the rivers. By setting right the meridians-- i.e. restoring the bodys energy status--, the emotional/physical disorder is righted, thus paving the way for natural growth. How is this done? By tapping with the fingers on certain accupressure points on the face, torso and hand, while tuning in to the problem in your mind. Through these points we can access important meridians of the body and by tapping on them, excess negative emotional energy is released. A problem may have different aspects attached to it that surface in the course of treatment. In such cases, it is important to persist in rooting out all these aspects--much like peeling back the layers of an onion--and tap on them until the issue is completely resolved.

5. AMT he roots of EFT T Both EFT and TFT are highly effective--the differences between them are simply a matter of personal preference. In the late 1970s, psychologist Dr Roger Callahan combined elements of quantum theory, kinesiology and accupressure to begin healing patients with phobias and traumatic stress disorders. He used a system of different combinations of tapping points for different issues. This highly effective therapy was termed Thought Field Therapy (TFT). Gary Craig, a Stanford engineer who studied with Dr Callahan, extended the concept by devising a set of all-purpose tapping points which was found to be easier to learn and remember. He called his system Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT. Since its inception, EFT has found favour with more and more practitioners of the healing professions--more and more licensed healers now use EFT as part of their repertoire. However, the basic technique has been made freely available to all--the same technique you will learn in this presentation.

6. AMT hen to use EFT W With a little imagination, many more uses can be found for EFT than are listed here.One of EFT s basic tenets is--Try it on Everything! EFT has been found to be effective in a variety of issues including: Grief and loss Guilt Insomnia Negative memories Pain and symptom management Physical healing Enhancing peak performance (sports, public speaking) Post traumatic stress disorder Sexual abuse issues, etc Relief of pain, e.g. migraine, arthritis etc Addictive Cravings (food, cigarettes, alcohol, drugs) Allergies Anxiety and panic attacks Anger Compulsions and obsessions Depression and sadness Dyslexia Enhancing self-image Fears and phobias

7. AMT he Process T A simple sequence that can be used to address any number of issues. The Basic Recipe is the standard, basic procedure that is employed to treat any emotional/physical disturbance. Once learnt, each round of the Basic Recipe should take under a minute or two to perform. The Basic Recipe comprises: The Set Up. The Sequence. The 9 Gamut Procedure. The Sequence (again). Adjustments for subsequent rounds. Lets look at these in more detail. The Set Up: This sets the stage, so to speak, for EFT to do its work. In this stage you will rub the accupressure point known as the Sore Spot while saying your Set Up Phrase out loud three times. The Set Up Phrase is as accurate a description of your issue as possible, in the following format:

8. AMT T Even though I (insert problem here), I deeply and completely accept myself. Examples of Set Up Phrases might be: –Even though my back aches… –Even though I tend to lose my cool at work… –Even though I have this pain in my jaw… –Even though I have a fear of heights…...I deeply and completely accept myself. The Sequence: While continuing to hold the problem in mind, youll tap 7 times or so in succession on each of 13 points, 5 on the face, 2 on the torso, 5 on the hand and one on the back of the hand (the Gamut Point). To assist you in keeping the problem in mind, youll repeat at each point a shortened version of your Set Up Statement called the Reminder Statement. Reminder Statements of the above examples might be: he Process ( continued )

9. AMT T –This backache –This irritability at work –This jaw pain –This fear of heights The 9 Gamut: The Gamut Point is located on the back of the hand, just behind and in between the knuckles of the ring and little finger. While tapping continuously on this point, you will execute a series of actions that-- while a little bizarre-looking!--engage your brain and set your neurology to working on the problem. The Sequence (again): The Sequence is repeated exactly as before. This constitutes one round of the Basic Recipe. he Process ( continued ) You can tap on either side of the body. Use two fingers held together to tap.

10. AMT T If the problem is persistent, break it down into as many aspects as suggest themselves to you, and tap on those. In many cases, you may get complete relief of your distress from just this single round! However, if the upset is still felt to some degree, simply repeat the Basic Recipe, with adjustments as follows: Adjustments for subsequent rounds: Substitute the Set Up Phrase you used with this one: Even though I still have some of this (insert problem), I deeply and completely accept myself.For example, Even though I still have some of this fear of heights, I deeply and completely accept myself. And substitute the Reminder Phrase for this one: This remaining (insert problem). For example: This remaining fear of heights. Now we will go on to examine the actual Points that you will be tapping on. he Process ( continued )

11. AMT T SUDs--Subjective Units of Distress. Theres one more concept to learn before proceeding to the actual points. Scaling the problem. At the beginning of an EFT session, take a rating of the intensity of distress you feel on a subjective scale of 1 to 10. Thus a strong upset might produce a rating of 8 or 9, while a relatively milder distress might be a 3. (This is also known as taking a Subjective Units of Distress, or SUDS, rating). At the end of a round of the Basic Recipe, scale the problem again. Has it reduced? Your goal is to have it down to a 1 or a 0 which would indicate complete freedom from the distress you started out with. Having your distress drop from a 7 or 8 to a 0 in a couple of rounds of EFT is an amazing experience--and one that happens more often than youd expect! he Process ( continued )

12. AMT G Each round of the Basic Recipe will take just around a minute or two to perform. Now youre ready to learn the Points to tap on. The following screens will show you exactly how to perform the Basic Recipe. Advance through the show a couple of times to get the idea (using the navigation buttons to return to this screen), and then try it out while tapping yourself. It is best if you practice with a real problem, as EFT is really experiential in nature and no amount of explanation can take the place of actual doing. Note: Once you learn EFT, youll be able to perform each round of the Basic Recipe in just a minute or so. If youre working on an actual problem, remember to scale your problem before you start, and to scale it again at the end of each round! etting started

Youve just learnt how to perform the EFT Basic Recipe!

28. AMT T Teach your kids EFT--it will be a most valuable, lifelong asset for them. Memorize the Basic Recipe. Customize it to your problem with an appropriate Set Up Phrase and Reminder Phrase. Do as many rounds as it takes to clear out the problem. If necessary be persistent--some issues may take longer. Try to be as specific as possible while naming the problem. Stubborn problems usually have different aspects attached to them. Break down each problem into its aspects and clear them one by one. You may not have to treat each aspect! Often just attending to a few of them leads to complete relief from the problem…like a few released logs will suddenly clear a logjam. Relief is usually permanent but should the problem return…just tap on it again! You can even tap for someone else (proxy tapping) e.g. small children …use the format Even though X (insert problem), s/he deeply and completely accepts himself. This one will really amaze you...! After some experience using EFT, experiment with using the process without the 9 Gamut (just the Sequence).Many cases will respond well even to this shortcut! Youll sense when the 9 Gamut is necessary. Proxy tapping on animals is also possible and generally works well. ips on using EFT
