This post is why I still love the benefits of Tapping so much after finding EFT in 2003.
How EFT Tapping Empowers You Personally
Tapping is described as a gentle and powerful self-applied acupressure technique that offers rapid results.
• Stress & Anxiety Relief: Clinical studies show a 62.3% reduction in stress and anxiety with just 10 minutes of Tapping.
• Emotional Resolution: It helps resolve negative emotions such as anger, sadness, shame, and loss stemming from childhood or present situations.
• Breaking Patterns: EFT is effective for clearing "unseen links to self-sabotage" and releasing stored trauma, grief, and heartbreak to help you build new habits for success.
• Gaining Freedom: By addressing "rumination," Tapping allows you to gain freedom from the past and reach your desired goals with more inner peace.
Helping Others: Relief, Healing, and Moving Forward
EFT is designed as a tool for "Everyone," and its benefits extend to those you support.
• A Tool for "Helpers": This training is specifically valuable for teachers, caregivers, holistic practitioners, nurses, social workers, coaches, and parents.
• Caretaker Wellness: In a study of caretakers and clinicians, their own stress and anxiety were reduced by 45% following just a single one-day Tapping workshop.
• Professional Effectiveness: Practitioners learn how to help clients regulate emotions, dissolve fears/phobias, and can help reduce physical symptoms by calming the nervous system and lowering reactivity in the body’s stress response.
• The "Magic Key": There is often a hidden power by using the 9 Gamut Tapping sequence as a "magic key". It’s used for release of trauma and chronic pain, grief/loss, and dealing with difficult or long-standing issues over which a client may have felt powerless. The process of 9 Gamut can help in achieving rapid change.
