Emotional Freedom Technique

18 replies
Hi Guys,

I recently came across The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and I am interested to see if anyone has experienced some good results using this technique.

EFT is a powerful process that can help just about anyone to achieve genuine freedom from the emotions that have created problems in their lives. EFT is a healing technique that works on balancing the body's subtle energies. During an EFT session, certain energy channels (meridians) are stimulated by tapping on specific acupressure points within the body using the fingertips. This process of tapping can balance the body's energy field, removing negative emotions that block the flow of energy (qi) through the body.

EFT is effective in treating many conditions, such as anxiety, depression and phobias. These techniques have been described by some as one of the most important breakthroughs in the area of psychology in this century. They have been used successfully with thousands of people with a broad range of difficulties.

I have just started using EFT over the past 4 weeks and have noticed some pretty amazing results. I have been following David Childerley's video on you tube (see below) and repeating the exercise every morning and every night.

Has anyone had much success with EFT? I was very skeptical at first but kept an open mind and gave it a try. I now believe that it is an extremely powerful strategy to remove limiting beliefs and program the subconsious mind for success.

Repeat this tapping / affirmation exercise every morning and night:


David also has a Self Empowerment TV channel at:

Cheers, Brad

    My aunt is a hypnotherapist and used EFT with me once. I didn't try it again, but I am more open minded now than I used to be. Once I started reading about quantum physics my belief in the "real" has changed, that's for sure.

    Hi Brad,

    I use EFT daily. Sometimes, I get results and sometimes I don't. Currently, I'm delving closer to the technique to discover what the variation is. I've watched David's videos before. He seems to have created an effective system using EFT.

    I like it much better than hypnosis or meditation because it's faster and I can do it anywhere, anytime. I just wish it worked more effectively.

      Can you elaborate and how it could be more effective? Do you mean that it only works temporarily and that you have to keep doing it daily to keep up the results?

      I sometimes wonder if you can clear blocks without going *through* them and gaining the lesson first.

      Hi,
      I am a qualified EFT therapist.
      I have been using it for 3 years, and it does work very well.
      I use it extensively with myself, my daughter, my partner, my clients...
      I have used it for phobias, fears, insecurities, broken hearts, anxiety, traumas... and it can be used for any emotional issues you can think of.
      It's really fantastic. You can download the manual for free from EFT Home - World Center for EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), and you can read lots of cases.
      It's really changed my life.
      If anyone has any questions you can send me a PM. I would love to help!

    Hello :

    Emotions do affect us on all levels and most psychosomatic diseases have their base on emotional blocks. EFT is a wonderful no cost way to treat ourself with no adverse side effects.

    BTW, thanks for another EFT resource.God Bless.

    I agree with EFT on a way that emotions and feelings are in essence blocks (garbage) that needs to be removed out.
    Although I disagree with the technique of tapping as credible way to achieve the emotional cleaning effect. I personally tried it but haven't been able to see any before/after difference.
    Just my personal experience.

    I do read a lot of self help literature and in particularly pay attention to very simple and practical teachings of masters and healers who been able to achieve significant, measurable and proven shifts in their personal lives and in lives of other people.

    I practice 'release technique' and also flavor of ancient hawaiian hooponopono system that agrees with EFT on causes but differ in application.

    Hi Brad, sure. Website information is a bit scarce though.
    The best source: "Zero Limits" by Joe Vitale. I like this book as he asked the same questions I would ask - and i am very practical person.

    He met and studied from the doctor that managed to heal the whole ward of criminally insane (read - hopeless) patients without even seeing each of them personally for any healing sessions.
    While doing that he discovered that same approach could be used very successfully for our own lives as well, including any success and personal growth.

    I love the simplicity and practicality of the concepts described - albeit it will be mind bending and unacceptable for many. For me it was eye opening - suddenly everything became so clear and logical.

    Felt like I've graduated from 'The Secret' kindergarten to university

    Thanks for this topic. David Childerley is exactly what I was looking for to work on some strange self-healing notions I have been pondering lately. Also, he seems to be honestly intending to help others and I always welcome and am looking for such people to become part of my karmic network.

    hi bradles,

    i have been using EFT for about a year and have a couple of gary's DVD sets. It's pretty amazing stuff. for me it works for some things and other things it does not. I think probably a good EFT practitioner could help, as doing it by myself, i am sure that i am missing some "aspects" that are in the way.
