David and I were first introduced to EFT by a friend a number of years ago. We use it on ourselves and have shared this remarkable self-healing method with clients and they have received the same benefits we enjoy. There are times we use it less and periods we use it more but whatever we are wanting to "clear" and release we find EFT does it.
We know a number of friends here are struggling with a variety of personal, health and financial concerns and we wanted to set a group up that will inform others of the wonderful shifts that occur when people use the emotional freedom techniques on a regular basis.
One needs to be realistic and know that we heal in the reverse order of the illness, imbalance or disorder so consistency is key to achieving desired outcomes. For those who are already aware of EFT and practice it please set up your own discussions sharing your experiences and allowing others to ask questions.
What is EFT?
EFT is a powerful new discovery that combines two well established sciences so you can benefit from both at the same time:
- Mind Body Medicine
- Acupuncture (without needles).
In essence, EFT is an emotional version of acupuncture wherein we stimulate certain meridian points by tapping on them with our fingertips. This addresses a new cause for
emotional issues (unbalanced energy meridians). Properly done, this frequently reduces
the therapeutic process from months or years down to hours or minutes. And,
since emotional stress can contribute to pain, disease and physical ailments,
we often find that EFT provides astonishing physical relief.

More benefits...
- You can make enormous strides by introducing EFT into your emotional therapy process (whether you are a professional or a client). Instead of taking months or years using conventional "talk
therapy," EFT often does the job for you cleanly and thoroughly in
one or two sessions ... and we sometimes achieve noticeable results in
a few brief rounds of EFT. We label these near-instant results as
"one minute wonders." - Once you have seen how well EFT clears out emotional debris, your next step is to notice how physical ailments start to fade. Headaches, back pains and other discomforts often tend to improve or
vanish as emotional issues improve (this is the essence of Mind Body
Medicine). Your vision may become clearer and everyday stress may take
less toll on your system. - Accordingly, you can apply it to just about everything. That is one of the most astonishing things about it. You use the same basic procedure for your fear of public speaking as you do for improving
your golf score. You can also use it for everything from the common
cold to multiple sclerosis (consult your physician, of course).
Further, we have had reported successes for nearly every emotional issue
on the books...including fear, trauma, depression, grief and
schizophrenia. Some consider it the missing link in the pursuit of health
and happiness.
Possible EFT limitations
I'm not saying here that EFT is perfect. We don't get 100%. But it usually works well and the results are sometimes spectacular. Because of its unique approach, it can work where
nothing else does and, to many, it represents a Doorway to a new Healing
High-Rise.

You will find that EFT is usually quite gentle and you can often achieve substantial relief with little or no pain. This is not true for everyone, however. Some people's issues are so
intense that the mere mention of them causes emotional or physical pain. But,
given time, even these may be resolved efficiently with EFT.

A small percentage of our population (best estimate is less than 3%) have serious emotional and physical disabilities and thus newcomers to EFT are advised to exercise common sense in
this regard. While you can use EFT to generate impressive relief for many
people, please consult qualified health practitioners where appropriate and
don't go where you aren't qualified.

Gary Craig decided to step down and close his site in January of this year because he feel the EFT Movement has its lets and there are enough people practicing and promoting it that he can step down and allow others to carry the torch from now on. His goal was to provide a natural way for people to be able to heal their lives without any financial cost.
