EFT Technique, the "Recipe"

The Steps in the EFT Recipe
(for description with Pictures, see my website: http://www.lifechgcoach.com/)

Here's the steps in the Emotional Freedom Technique.

FIRST: Feel the discomfort you wish to tap for, and rate it on a scale of 1 to 10.

1. The Setup

Repeat this affirmation 3 times:

"Even though 1 have this (say what’s bothering you)
I deeply and completely love and accept myself.”
.
...while tapping the karate chop point.

2. The TAPPING Sequence

Tap about 7 times on each of the following energy points while repeating the Reminder
Phrase (include just the key words describing your discomfort from the setup affirmation)
at each point.

TH - Top of Head (crown)
EB - Beginning of the Eye Brow
SE - Side of the Eye
UE - Under the Eye
UN - Under the Nose
Ch - Chin
CB - Beginning of the Collar Bone
UA - Under the Arm
Th - Thumb
IF - Index Finger
MF - Middle Finger
BF - Baby Finger
KC - Karate Chop


3. The 9 Gamut Procedure

Continuously tap on the Gamut point while performing each of these 9 actions:
(1) Eyes closed
(2) Eyes open
(3) Eyes hard down right
(4) Eyes hard down left
(5) Roll eyes in circle
(6) Roll eyes in other direction
(7) Hum 2 seconds of a song
(8) Count to 5 and back to 1
(9) Hum 2 seconds of a song.

4. REPEAT The TAPPING Sequence


IMPORTANT: When finished, STOP and notice what has happened…Then compare how the feeling you tapped for has changed (rate it on a scale of 1 to 10 again). And repeat as necessary…. (or tap for what comes up stronger).
