It is a little bit strange at first and I felt a little bit silly. It's a good thing to do all by yourself. This particular session was centered around money and abundance. But the tapping technique could be applied to any area of your life, be it phobias, health issues or whatever. Brad Yates led a group including Dr. Joe Vitale (one of the speakers on the movie The Secret) talking of the fears of money and other issues people have with money. While he speaks you are led to tap certain areas of the body. The side of the hand, the edge of the brow, the edge of the eye, under the eye, under the nose, under the mouth, collarbone, a few inches below the arm pit and the top of the head. There are more spots I haven't learned yet, but these are the basics. When you tap you use two fingers at whatever place he says in the order I've listed above. Doesn't this whole thing sound odd? Well there is actual science behind it. It has to do with the energy meridians running through our bodies. (I'll get into that more later)
What I really want to tell you is how utterly terrific, fabulous and fantastic I feel right now. I finished the session about 30-45 minutes ago. I can do anything! Oddly enough as soon as I finished the session, I went right out and accomplished a task I have been putting off for over a year. I finished it within twenty minutes. All the stress of carrying that around and wasted time that I strained my brain about it and within twenty minutes I had it done and off my mind. Such a small task but a huge accomplishment! At this point I feel I could do anything!
The idea behind EFT is that negative emotions can cause disturbance to the body's energy field. When our body's energy is not flowing properly, it can cause psychological blocks or even physical illness and disease. When certain areas on our bodies energy meridian are 'tapped" and our negative beliefs are voiced at the same time, the negativity can be released. Once a body let's go of this negativity true healing can occur, both psychologically and physically. These energy points coincide with the ancient Chinese acupuncture points. EFT has been used to heal all sorts of issues such as phobias and a huge range of illnesses. This technique can even release our negative issues regarding money so we can bring on our abundance through the Law of Attraction. Quite often our negative issues regarding money can block us from reaching our full financial potential.
I plan on using the tapping to not only help with my finances, but also for a few physical issues I have been carrying around for the past several years. I look forward to seeing how I progress in the weeks and months ahead.
At this point, I am in such a state of confidence that I am quite sure I can accomplish anything.
