What is EFT?
EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is a remarkable method of reducing and often eliminating negative emotions such as fear, anxiety, shame and anger to name just a few. The process is often quick, painless and simple to learn, with results that are real and permanent.

EFT theory:
"The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system"
- Gary Craig, Founder of EFT
During an EFT session you are instructed on how to tap on points on your face, upper body and hands that link to the meridians. The meridians are the ancient Chinese energy pathways in the body that are used in acupuncture. However with EFT instead of using needles to balance the energy, a light tapping technique is used instead. In fact EFT is often referred to as "Emotional Acupuncture". The tapping is carried out while you are focussed on the problem, and therefore causing a disruption in your energy system. You will often be able to feel this disruption, not just as the emotion but also physically as churning in your stomach or a tightness in your chest or throat, for example. Tapping while you are thinking about your problem will balance the body's energy so that there is no longer a disruption and you will no longer experience the negative emotion. Fears, phobias, PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and many other longstanding emotional problems have been easily cleared this way.
The predecessor of EFT was TFT (Thought Field Therapy) which was discovered by Dr Roger Callahan in 1980. While working with a client with an intense water phobia that she could feel as a sensation in her stomach he asked her to tap on her stomach meridian point (located just under the eye). She immediately felt complete relief from her fear and it never returned! With this success Callahan went on to research and develop TFT.
Gary Craig, the founder of EFT In 1995, Gary Craig, a student of Dr Callahan's, simplified the process and made it more accessible giving us EFT. Gary Craig's official EFT site www.emofree.com is a mine of information for anyone who is seriously interested in EFT. He has also produced set of very low cost training videos on DVD to teach the EFT basics and more advanced methods. These are suitable for both self help and as practitioner training. I can personally recommend all of the DVD sets and I'm sure you will find them very good value for money. You can read more about the DVD's and purchase them here.
Once you have learnt EFT you will be able to apply it to literally any emotional problem. EFT is truly a valuable tool for life.
