About Emotional Freedom Technique
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a technique of tapping on acupuncture points to unravel negative emotions, limiting beliefs, and the emotional core of many physical diseases.
EFT is a revolutionary tool that resets the energetic and electrical systems of the body while focusing on a surprisingly wide spectrum of specific issues, both physical and/or emotional.
It allows highly effective results even in case of “dis-eases” considered “incurable”, often in the range of hours of where traditional therapies might require months or years.
Our EFT therapist, Lilia’s, comprehensive method aims at uncovering the core issues underlying the symptoms, while teaching you the technique so that you can continue applying it on your own and explore the layers emerging in the process. For best outcome, multiple one and a half hour sessions are recommended.
Sometimes we come to transitions in our life when we feel a silent cry inside, manifesting in the form of physical or psychological pain. It is at these times of chronic suffering or “breakdown” that an opportunity is presented to reevaluate our choices and the paradigms we based them upon. The “emergency” can then be revealed as an “emergence”, during which the potential for different solutions is discovered and harnessed to suggest new directions and reframe the crisis to a chance for a ‘quantum leap”.
In the September 2003 edition of the prestigious Journal Of Clinical Psychology, Steve Wells and his team of EFT practitioners in Australia published their groundbreaking study. This study demonstrated EFT can relieve the fear of spiders and small insects in just minutes. Better still the study showed that the results lasted over six months later in subjects tested. This is no surprise to EFT practitioners.
This simple, natural and safe therapy gives relief to many different problems including:
- Anxiety about going to the dentist
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (including symptoms such as stress, unreasonable fears, panic attacks, nightmares, and flashbacks) following automobile accidents
- Epileptic seizures in small children
In clinical practice EFT has been effective on a wide variety of other mental and physical problems including:
- Reducing blood clotting
- Improving eyesight
- Quitting smoking
- Eliminating fear of water
- Increasing test scores
- Improving sports performance
- Overcoming depression
- Dealing with memories of abuse
- Improving personal relationships
- And much more
Experienced EFT users typically report an 80% or greater success rate. Over half of those subjects without experience have rapid, safe and natural relief from their problems without any sophisticated training.
