Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

A powerful tool for healing, balance, and transformation

Used across the globe for its remarkable success rate, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is helping people overcome anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, phobias, PTSD, chronic pain, low self-esteem, fear of failure, and so much more.

What Is EFT?

EFT is a gentle yet effective self-help technique that involves tapping on specific points near the ends of the body’s energy meridians. These meridians, similar to those used in Chinese acupuncture, are pathways through which energy flows. But unlike acupuncture, EFT requires no needles; you just use your fingertips, your voice, and your intention.

By tapping on these points while acknowledging emotional challenges aloud, EFT helps release energetic blockages and restore harmony to both body and mind.

How EFT Works

EFT combines elements of energy psychology and neuroscience. It’s based on the understanding that negative emotions aren’t caused solely by traumatic memories, but by disruptions in the body’s energy system linked to those memories.

One key player in this process is the amygdala, a part of the brain responsible for detecting threats and triggering the fight-or-flight response. The amygdala doesn’t distinguish between past and present danger, which is why simply recalling a painful event can cause panic, anxiety, or even phobic reactions.

EFT helps calm the amygdala, reduce emotional intensity, and restore a sense of safety. Harvard studies have shown that EFT can decrease blood flow to the amygdala, release endorphins, and increase gamma brain wave activity, supporting emotional regulation and wellbeing.

The Origins of EFT

EFT was developed by Gary Craig, a student of Dr. Roger Callahan, the founder of Thought Field Therapy (TFT). Craig refined and simplified the techniques, making EFT accessible to everyone, anytime, anywhere.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.
