An introduction to a new psychological therapeutic method called Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). It is a practical procedure to eliminate all negative emotions, including stress, anxiety, fears, phobias, past traumas (including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD), substance abuse, and all addictions.
With EFT the user no longer has to go through months of expensive, and usually ineffective, conventional "talk therapies."Anyone can be free from any negative emotional or psychological difficulty that in the past has prevented him/her from reaching full potential, or from living a joyful, blissful life. EFT puts in your hands the power to eliminate all negative emotions. It is simple, effective, and most importantly, it is free!Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Thought Field Therapies (TFT) access the body's energy meridian system to release the negative energy attached to a particular negative emotion. The energy meridian system is a natural network of energy pathways circulating throughout the body. EFT uses the same principles of energy therapies, such as acupuncture, except that EFT does not require needles and it heals psychological problems, not just physical ones.
EFT/TFT is the outcome of a recent scientific discovery that found that the cause of negative emotions is not the memory of a traumatic event, but the negative energy entangled around the memory. This finding shows that by releasing this energy, the negative emotion is instantly eliminated. Thousands of people have reported relief from past traumas and negative feelings that had previously defied months of conventional treatment.
The reader only needs to learn a series of meridian end points, how to use the hands to tap on these points for a few minutes, and the ability to concentrate and feel a particular negative emotion. It is that simple! IT IS IN YOUR HANDS is written in a simple style, with many practical exercises, case studies to treat specific negative emotions, and illustrations designed to gradually develop and apply the principles.REVIEWS FROM THE FIRST EDITION"It turned my life around. I had some major emotional trauma, related to being shot and a husband that was abusive. EFT took all of that away, once I got the technique down I just tapped for about 14 hours and came out just as happy as you can get. I still remember everything but there is no emotion with it.

After trying psychological therapy (which did not work) for a traumatic life experience I decided to try the EFT and TIT therapies presented in a very simple language in this book and they worked!" Maria Smith. Amazon Reviews.
"There are many books on EFT, but so many are too long or too detailed to give to friends so they can understand quickly how it works and what it can do for all of us. This is one of the best I've seen." Kathleen Krier. Amazon Reviews.
"This book is an excellent starting point for anybody who is interested in understanding the basics of EFT and how to start applying them personally. It also gives very interesting background information. The book is well written, easy to read and in exchange for an hour or two of their time gives the reader practical information capable of changing their lives if they follow the clear instructions provided by the author." Daryl Houck. Amazon Reviews.
