EFT is a branch of therapy that was derived from Thought Field Therapy by psychiatrist Dr. Robert Callahan in the 70s. TFT is a comprehensive method that works to pinpoint exactly where stored negative emotion lives in the body and is precise in restoring proper energy flow. EFT was founded by engineer Gary Craig in 1995 and is more of a catch-all approach.
It works by tapping a series of specific points on the face, clavicle, side body, and hands. In EFT, the practitioner will not know exactly where the negative emotion is stored, but by tapping all of the points are able to address the problem, wherever it may be. The points that are tapped on are the endpoints of the Principal Meridians recognized in Chinese Medicine.
We house small electrical currents in our bodies along paths or highways known as meridians. Acupuncture works with these meridians and so does the tapping method of EFT. The meridians themselves are inside the body and not on the surface, but by tapping we are able to draw blood flow and energy to the area.
All negative emotions becomes trapped in our energy centers (chakras) or short-circuits the electrical flow in our meridians. As such, there are other energy healing modalities, such as reiki, that may be beneficial to incorporate as well. In my experience, EFT works best with addressing fears.
When we experience a fearful response, it causes a disruption to our energy flow. The stimulus travels to our brain from our nervous system, and when we are faced with the same trigger, the same electrical impulse is delivered to our brain. To correct this, we use EFT to restore the energy flow in the meridian and remove the impulse or disruption that was causing the fear.
