The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a therapeutic approach that combines elements of talking therapy and acupressure point stimulation to help individuals address and overcome emotional difficulties. It is also referred to as tapping therapy and is considered a form of energy psychology. EFT is based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, which believes that energy, known as Qi, flows through specific pathways in the body called meridian points. Imbalances in these energy lines are thought to contribute to emotional dysregulation and discomfort. EFT involves tapping gently on specific meridian points on the face and upper body using the fingertips, while repeating affirmations related to the emotional issue. This stimulates the energy pathways and sends signals to the amygdala, an area of the brain responsible for managing stress levels and emotional responses. By tapping on these points, EFT can help reduce stress and anxiety, and improve emotional well-being. EFT has been found to be effective in providing relief for individuals suffering from stress, anxiety, and emotional difficulties, and is widely recognised as a safe and effective therapeutic approach.
