1. Focus Your Intention
Think about the animal and what you would specifically
like to release, soothe, relax or change. By focusing
your attention on the animal, you are now connecting
your energy system with theirs.
2. The Opening Set-Up
Start by tapping on the karate chop point. If you’re
right handed, use the pads of all four fingers on your
right hand to tap on the outside of the left hand just
below the pinky. If you’re left handed, do the
opposite. Tap using the same amount of pressure as you
would if you were bored and tapping on a desk.
While tapping, say this phrase, “Even though
(insert name or description) is (insert statement of
problem), I deeply and completely love and accept (name
or description) and (insert problem).” Repeat
this opening statement three times in all, continuously
tapping the karate chop area. This is the main part
of directing your attention to the problem.
3. Tapping All the EFT Meridian Points
Then, use a shortened version of the opening statement
and go to the top of the head. Tap using the tips of
all four fingers on the top of your head. You can use
either both sets of fingers, or just one hand. Say the
shortened version once with intent while tapping on
each point. You will tap each point about seven to nine
times. Move down the body saying the statement while
tapping each point as you go along, ending at the point
under the breast. Take a few deep breaths at the end.
• Begin at the Eyebrow (EB) – Where the
bone behind your eyebrow turns into the bridge of your
nose.
• Corner of the Eye (SE) – On the bone in
the corner of your eye.
• Under the Eye (UE) – On the bone just
below your eye, in line with your pupil if you look
straight ahead.
• Under the Nose (UN) – Between your nose
and your upper lip.
• Under the Mouth (CH) – In the indentation
between your chin and your lower lip.
• Collarbone (CB) – In the angle formed
by your collarbone and the breastbone
• Under Arm (UA) – in line with a man’s
nipples on the side of the body, on a woman, it’s
right where the bra strap is
• Under the Breast (UB) – about 4 inches
below a man’s nipples and directly under the woman’s
breast.
You can repeat the treatment using the same statement
or a different statement. Listen to your intuition while
going through the round of tapping. Often something
comes to your mind as you do this. Don’t question
it, just go along with whatever your intuition tells
you.
During the second round of tapping, I usually change
the set-up statement by removing the last statement
about the problem. My second statement will only mention
the problem in the very beginning of the statement,
not at the end. The reason why I mention that I love
and accept the problem in the first statement is because
I feel that the problem/issue is there for a reason
and we need to honor and show respect for it while at
the same time letting it know that it’s no longer
needed.
Different statements create different changes, so experiment
with many different forms of wording and ways of saying
something until you feel comfortable. However, try to
be as specific as possible in order to get to the root
cause of the issue.
Since EFT is sometimes compared to acupuncture without
the needles, I think it’s important here to mention
a recent study that was discussed in a USA Today article
in 2007. Researchers placed acupuncture needles purposely
in the “wrong” locations on their patient’s
body and were surprised
to find that the patient experienced the same good results
regardless of where the needles were placed.
This shows that the placement of your fingers doesn’t
really matter. EFT seems to work largely because of
intent rather than because of the tapping points or
the Meridian points. Try not to get hung up on the tapping
points. Rather, pay attention to your intuition and
the intent behind fixing the problem or issue. The combination
of your energy and your intent will create balance.
I suggest you Practice, Practice, Practice, and Tap,
Tap, Tap. Tap every day and enjoy the results. If you
get stuck or feel like you need help, please contact
me for a consultation or a tapping session.
