| Excerpts from the EFT Manual, by Gary Craig The emotional and energetic releases in profound physical healings. EFT is based on the discovery that imbalances in the body's energy system have profound effects on one's personal psychology. Correcting these imbalances, which is done by tapping on certain body locations, often leads to rapid remedies.... [Years ago] I discovered a list of helpful tools that I used for myself and taught to others. None of them, incidentally, came from psychology textbooks. They were all well received and effective when properly applied. One of the tools that I thought was quite helpful was Neurolinguistic Programming (also known as NLP). I dove into that headfirst and became quite proficient at it. I became certified as a Master Practitioner and helped a lot of people with it. I recommend anyone study it who is interested in personal improvement. Then my search for reliable personal improvement tools took a mega jump to a new level. I was told about a psychologist in Southern California, Dr. Roger Callahan, who was giving people relief from intense fears (phobias) in minutes. So, ever the eager beaver, I called him immediately to inquire of his methods. He told me that his methods weren't limited to just phobias. They applied to all negative emotions... [including] depression, guilt, anger, grief, post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and any other negative emotion I could name. Furthermore, the method usually only took minutes to perform and the result was usually permanent. On the one hand, I was enthusiastic about his claims. But I must also admit to a fair amount of skepticism as well. The statement sounded a bit grandiose...even to me. But I was still listening. Then he told me the method consisted of tapping with the fingertips at the end points of the body's energy meridians. "You mean meridians like in acupuncture?” I said. "Exactly," he replied. "Hmmm,” I thought, “That’s a little far out.” Here was a PhD making some startling claims and trying to explain them in terms of the subtle amounts of electricity that circulate throughout the body. Psychology and electricity seemed rather far apart.... The cause of all negative emotions is involved with the body's energy system. This is an important, paradigm-shifting concept...even though it sounds a bit strange.... EFT gives you striking evidence that energy flows within your body because it provides the effects that let you know it is there. By simply tapping near the end points of your energy meridians, you can experience some profound changes in your emotional and physical health. These changes would not occur if there were no energy system.... You don't have to know anything about diagnosis to have success with EFT. This is my contribution to these discoveries. EFT creates an effective end run around diagnosis. This is not to say that the ability to diagnose is unimportant. In fact, I teach an elegant version of diagnosis in our DVD set, “Steps toward becoming The Ultimate Therapist.” Professional therapists, especially those dealing with clinically disturbed patients, will want to go this extra step. However, the "100% overhaul concept" (described next) works admirably as a substitute. Diagnosis is not necessary for the majority of issues with the majority of people.... The 100% overhaul concept is EFT's end run around diagnosis. We overdo it. We use a memorized process called The Basic Recipe with which we apply enough tapping procedures to overhaul the whole energy system. This way, our odds of fixing the specific energy imbalance, or "zzzzzt," are greatly enhanced.... even though we have no ability to diagnose. The only difference between the TV repairman and EFT is that our overhaul takes only a few minutes...not days. Therefore, it is very practical to do. The 100% overhaul concept requires that you tap near the end points of numerous energy meridians without knowing which of them may be disrupted. In this way, you "overtap" and will, in the process, tap on some energy meridians that are flowing normally. [This does no harm.] The full Basic Recipe consists of four ingredients...two of which are identical. They are: 1. The Setup 2. The Sequence 3. The 9 Gamut Procedure 4. The Sequence Complete written instructions are in the manual, part 2. |

| According to Wikipedia, at least three studies have shown EFT to be effective. Some scientists discount these studies, calling EFT "pseudoscience." In one of the studies, tapping specific points on a doll was as effective as tapping on the subjects' own "meridian points." |
