Emotional Freedom Technique
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as "tapping," is a mind-body technique that involves tapping on specific points of the body to help manage emotions and reduce stress and anxiety:
How it works
Tapping
You tap on specific points on your body, similar to acupuncture points, while focusing on an uncomfortable feeling and reciting positive affirmations
Benefits
EFT can help reduce stress and anxiety, or help you feel calm when you're angry. Licensed therapists also use EFT to help patients navigate trauma, phobias, and other mental health concerns.
Steps
1. Identify a problem area and state it in the negative. 2. Set a benchmark level of intensity on a scale from 0 to 10. 3. Tap on specific points on your body, such as between your nose and upper lip, under your collarbone, and under your armpit. 4. Stop and remeasure how you feel about your issue. 5. Repeat the steps if needed.
EFT was first introduced in the 1990s by Gary Craig, a Stanford graduate and certified master practitioner of neurolinguistic programming
