EFT stands for Emotional Freedom Technique.It was developed by Gary Craig.EFT uses acupuncture without needles and mind-body relation.We tap certain points on various parts of body called meridian points(energy path ways) with our fingers,lightly.
The ideas behind EFT concept is that all issues have a underlying emotional upset as a reason.All the emotional upsets are caused due to disturbances in our body's energy system. Once we Correct the disturbance, then the emotional upset also goes away.Eft is a tool which clears these emotional disturbances.
For example,I have a fear of darkness.I'm terrified to go alone in a dark room.I sweat when someone mentions " dark room ".So,then I try EFT.I tap lightly on few points on my face,chest etc. with my 2 fingers.I use a "affirmation" along with tapping,which is also used in NLP. Affirmation is a set up sentence or word.This takes less than one minute.
I do this cycle for 5 times.Each time my intensity or fear value goes from extreme(10) to normal(3 or even zero).
