WELLBEING  AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

By Ellen Richter,  MS

Would
you believe me if I told you that in just moments you could rid yourself of
stress, anxiety, headaches, cravings for food or cigarettes, or any other
nagging complaint? Would you believe me if I told you that you can restore your
sense of peace, calm and wellbeing in the midst of any crisis? If you think it
sounds like a miracle, I would tell you it is! Emotional Freedom Technique is
changing lives and is spreading like wildfire. Individuals and organizations
are experiencing the remarkable effects of this wonderful technique and they
are talking.  And TAPPING! Have I
piqued your interest yet?

EFT
is a psychological form of acupuncture that involves tapping with your
fingertips on energy meridian endpoints on the body while remembering or
experiencing a negative situation of any sort. Developed by Gary Craig, a
Stamford engineer, EFT is one of the most advanced forms of Energy Psychology
and is bringing rapid relief to people around the world. It’s based on the
premise that all negative emotions stem from a disruption in the body’s energy
system which in turn leads to discomfort, illness, pain and unhealthy behavior.
Numerous studies have shown that cravings, addictions and physical aliments are
emotionally based and disappear when the emotional/energetic disruption is
addressed. Emotional Freedom Technique rebalances the energetic disruption in
just minutes, virtually rewiring the body and restoring balance. When applied
to specific situations such as cravings, headaches, anxiety, fear, and the
like, it offers quick and long lasting results thus making it more effective
than traditional psychotherapy. Another benefit of this magic technique is that
it’s easy to learn and is literally always at your fingertips.

 Imagine having a tool that in moments
can dissolve your insatiable cravings for that pint of ice cream or pound of chocolate
and allow you to instead eat it in healthy moderation. Imagine clearing the
underlying emotions out of your system so they no longer run the show. Food becomes
an ally for your health instead of your enemy, and your weight naturally
stabilizes.

Picture
yourself at work with an approaching deadline, a never-ending workload and
people pulling at you from all directions. You feel the tension rising and are
ready to blow. Instead of losing your temper or reaching for that cigarette or
manifesting a headache, you tap for a few minutes and feel the stress melt
away. You are now relaxed, centered and much more productive!

The
value this brings to both employee and employer is remarkable. Businesses lose
billions of dollars yearly due to lost productivity, absenteeism and expensive
health care costs. Wellness is an inside job, and clearing out negativity fosters
that wellbeing along with healthier lifestyle choices. This translates to
greater energy, productivity and enthusiasm and in addition to money saved,
company goals are achieved at a faster rate.

Are
you an athlete? Do you play golf or tennis? What if you could take a few
strokes off your game? What if you could take a few minutes to tap before you
play your next tennis match and emerge on the court calmer, more confident and
focused? Pro golfers are tapping on the golf course to reduce negative self-chatter
and performance anxiety, sharpen their focus, erase visions of previous
mistakes and lessen distractions.  Peak performance requires a balanced and focused mental state
and EFT can get you and keep you there very rapidly.

EFT
is also invaluable for improving relationships. I teach my clients to tap
before they speak! Instead of lashing out with harmful words when your partner or
children do something that angers you, simply tap first. Within a few minutes, the
anger will melt away restoring your inner balance and peace. You’ll be amazed
at the transformation within you and you will now say what you need to from a
centered rather than reactive state of being. Tapping doesn’t change the facts
but changes our own energy and emotions around them so that we are not as
bothered by circumstances. We actually can effect greater change that way.

The
wonder and beauty of EFT is in the transformation it brings to those who use
it. Tapping daily on the little stresses and negative conversations, the pains
and cravings, the hurts and disappointments, simply clears our energy system
and restores a sense of wellbeing and optimum health. EFT is also used to tap
in positive suggestions and affirmations for what we wish to manifest. It’s
easy to learn and most people find a certain degree of relief when tapping on
their own. For deeper and more long lasting results, it is wise to work with a
trained practitioner who uses their skills, experience and intuition to turn
this healing modality into an art form. The benefits and wonders of EFT are
endless. Tap to your health!
