How to do EFT
EFT Basics
- Pick an issue and rate the intensity of the issue on a 0 -10 scale. Write that number down.
- Tap
lightly and continuously on the KC point (see picture above) or rub the
tender spot while saying the following affirmation 3 times:
“Even though I have this __________________, I deeply and completely accept myself” - Tap
gently on points 2 through 8 about 7-9 times each, while saying a
reminder phrase about the problem, for example “this ______________”
- Take
a deep breath and let it out. Rate the intensity again. If it is not
yet ‘0’, continue the process, with the following minor modifications.
Repeat the affirmation 3 times while tapping the KC point, but saying: “Even though I still have some of this __________________, I deeply and completely accept myself”
Change reminder phrase to “remaining ____________”
Sample tapping technique:
- Pick an issue and rate the intensity of the issue on a 0 -10 scale. Write that number down.
Say you have a pounding headache on the left side of your head which is an ‘8’ out of ‘10’. You would write down an ‘8’. - Tap lightly and continuously on the KC point (see #1 above) while saying the following affirmation 3 times:
“Even though I have this pounding headache on the left side of my head, I deeply and completely accept myself” - Tap gently on points 2 through 8 about 7-9 times each, while saying a reminder phrase about the problem, for example “this pounding headache”
- Take
a deep breath and let it out. Rate the intensity again. If it not yet
‘0’, continue the process, with the following minor modifications.
- Repeat the affirmations 3 times while tapping the KC point, but saying: “Even though I still have some of this pounding headache on the left side of my head, I deeply and completely accept myself.”
- Change reminder phrase to “remaining headache”
- Rate the intensity again and repeat the entire process until the intensity is down to ‘0’.
