Many ancient traditions such as the Myans, Aztecs and Shamans have understood and utilized sound as a powerful healing tool with seemingly magical effects for centuries. In the western world we are only just beginning to rediscover this unlimited source for transformation and healing.

But how can sound heal?

In order to understand the healing potential of sound it is important to consider what recent discoveries in modern science have revealed about our existence. By examining the minutest parts of our bodies, the scientists have discovered that we are not made of solid matter, but we are in fact a body of vibrating energy. In fact, every single thing from thought and emotion to water and iron ore is pure vibration.  What differentiates each individual construct from another is the resonant frequency at which they are vibrating. The slower the vibrational rate, the more dense the substance.

Let’s look at the human body for example. A liver cell has a different resonant frequency to a kidney cell, and bones are vibrating at a slower rate than blood plasma.  Also, trees, animals, crystals, precious gems, metal, gas, earth and water all have their own unique resonant frequency. Even thought and emotion are vibration, they are just vibrating at a much higher frequency than solid matter.

And everything that vibrates emits a sound, whether we can hear it audibly or not. As children we have the ability to hear a range of 16 Hz to around 20,000 Hz, although this decreases to an average of around 16,000 Hz as we get older. But just because we can’t hear it, doesn’t mean an object isn’t emitting a sound.

So if we take these findings to the next logical conclusion, and our body components are vibrating at different resonant frequencies, therefore emitting different sounds, then it stands to reason that we are literally our very own symphony. And as we are all unique, we all have our own vibratory signature. Unfortunately, when a group of cells alter their vibration through the various effects of other vibrational impacts on the body, it causes dis-ease and can have devastating effects on our physical, emotional, spiritual and mental wellbeing. And because our bodies are subject to entrainment, which is when one vibration affects the resonant frequency of another vibration, thought, emotion, physical impact, other sounds, in fact everything can have either a positive or negative effect on our vibration.

Pleasing sounds, joyful events, praise and compliments, living with passion and purpose, loving relationships, being in nature, positive thoughts, relaxation, meditation all have a positive effect by restoring our own resonant frequency to assisting the body to facilitate it’s own ability to healing itself and also promoting harmony, balance and health in the body. However, disharmonious or irritating sounds, traumatic events, verbal and physical abuse, living a life of dissatisfaction and without purpose, stress of any kind, living in a polluted environment with very little nature, negative or destructive thoughts can all cause the vibrational rate to shift away from it’s own unique signature frequency, creating disharmony. And if the disharmonious cells have a stronger influence than surrounding harmonious cells, then they gradually entrain more and more cells to be out of harmony with the body which eventually shows up as dis-ease.

So it is beginning to make sense that sound can have a profound impact on our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing. And when you consider how we all have different tastes in the kinds of music we listen to and how strongly we can respond emotionally to different types of music, even depending upon our mood, it even begins to be logical that sound can have a powerful healing effect.

For years, sound has played a role in modern medicine through ultra-sound, and not just as a diagnostic or image projecting tool.  I recently broke a knuckle on one of my fingers, and Ultra-Sound was used as a part of the healing process to assist the mending of the bones.

Jonathon Goldman, who is considered to be one of the worlds leading experts in sound healing, having studied this phenomenon intensely for the past 25 years of more, says that “sound healing is the ability of sound to repair aspects of ourselves that are out of alignment (and need repair), as well as to restore us to our spiritual wholeness.”

And in fact, because sound does not appear solid in nature, the vibration has the ability to go right into our cells and even rearrange our molecules. The correct sound frequency can enhance the originally intended resonant frequency of our whole self, restoring balance, health and harmony to our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual selves without any other assistance from external sources at all. Hence the term, ‘of sound mind and body’.

The late psychic, Edgar Cayce (1877 – 1945), predicted that sound would be the medicine of the future and his prediction is coming to pass with science now researching the ability of sound to affect healing through our DNA.

If you haven’t yet investigated the world of sound healing, then I strongly encourage you to explore this powerful modality, which is only just being rediscovered. Our future is sound, and our sound is the future.

Think positive thoughts, surround yourself with positive people and sounds, engage in positive pastimes, listen to pleasing music, and your world will be a more harmonious, joyful and peaceful place.

Most of us blunder through life asleep, unaware of how our programs and thinking is creating our reality on a constant basis.

Thoughts become things! Just think about that statement for a moment.  And then think about what thoughts you have and what you have created in your life.  As you become aware of your thoughts, you will notice that many of them are focused on the negative aspects of your reality and on negative outcomes.  Unfortunately, this is creating more of the same results.  Only awareness will help you to change these patterns and create something different.

Once you have started to watch your thoughts on a regular basis, you will come to understand the direct relationship your thoughts have to what you create.  You will probably also find that underneath many of your thoughts there is a little voice that is saying things like:

“I can’t do that”

“I’m not smart enough”

“I’m not pretty enough”

“I’m just a failure”

“I’m not good enough”

“They’ll reject me”

“Nobody loves me” / “I’m not loveable”

“It’s too hard for me”

“I’m a bad person”

“I don’t deserve to have what I want”

“Nothing works for me”

“I’ll never succeed”

“I don’t have the courage”

There are countless destructive phrases our heads  projecting out into the world about us that just aren’t true. Any thought or belief system that makes you feel anything less than a divine, beautiful creature who is capable of anything and everything and is deserving of everything your heart desires is a false belief! Does this apply to you? If not, you are one of the rarest people on the planet and I’m not sure why you are reading this article!

It is only once you become aware of these patterns of thought that you can begin to consciously change them and change what you create.  Don’t be disappointed when you find that you fall back into old patterns at first.  Just try to be aware as much as possible and as soon as you catch one of those old ‘untruths’ in your mind, stop, breathe, and say “I used to think like that, now I know that (replace the negative with a positive statement)”.  Though this may be difficult at first, as you persevere you will find it becomes easier and easier, your thoughts naturally become more positive and so does your reality.

If you feel that becoming aware of your thoughts is all too hard, consider your current situation. Think about the last 5 years or 10 years.  And then think about the next 5 years.  Do you want to be in the same situation in 5 years that you are now, or that you have been for many years previous?

You cannot keep doing the same thing and expect different results.  This is the definition of insanity! When all the effort of changing your thinking seems too much, think about your future and where you would like to be.  Imagine your most perfect reality.  It is likely that what you can imagine is not even a fraction of what you are capable of once you change your thinking.

Have no doubt, you are an incredibly powerful creator. It’s just that you have been unconsciously creating all the things you don’t want for years, even decades.  There is not another moment to lose. Become a conscious creator today and transform your life.

Thoughts become things, choose the good ones!

That’s right commitment. It’s not terribly sexy or exciting or inspiring or anything you were looking for really. However, I want you to think about it for a few minutes as you read this article.

Nobody who achieves success in any field has ever done so without commitment. And this includes commitment to themselves, their vision, their goals, the process, their learning and development, their future and their growth and expansion.

It doesn’t matter if you are seeking to improve your health, finances, career, relationships, happiness, personal growth, spirituality, freedom, anything at all, the irrefutable truth is that you are going to have to be committed 150% to achieve whatever you dream of.

If you are actively seeking success in some area of your life, then it stands to reason that you must want a different outcome in that aspect to what you have right now. And the reality is that whatever results you are seeing in your life right now are due to your habits and your behaviour. Plain and simple, your behaviour is what creates your results.

So to create different results you are going to have to change your behaviour, It sounds pretty simple, in theory. Unfortunately, the execution is not necessarily that easy.

As soon as you set goals, you will encounter challenges. And to overcome challenges you need to be committed one hundred and fifty percent. It’s not how many times you get knocked down that counts, but how many times you get back up.

For many of us who are committed to creating a better life for ourselves it can feel pretty lonely at times as we seem to have obstacle after obstacle. But believe me, you are in very good company. Research any of the great achievers including many Olympic and other champion athletes, the worlds billionaires, the most celebrated innovators of our time, and you will find that many of them have succeeded against odds that you will probably never have to face. That is why they are considered legends and we draw inspiration from their achievements.

And the fact that you are going to experience challenges during your quest means that you will also encounter temporary failure.

True failure only exists in the grave, and the only failure whilst alive is the failure to participate. As long as you are alive, and you are participating in life, you are succeeding! There is no other option. The only difference is your level of participation.

And if you are 150% committed to your goal then you are participating full out and nothing will stop you from achieving success.

You will never encounter a challenge that you cannot overcome. You may not have the tools, experience or the knowledge in the beginning to get past it. But all those things can be acquired. The secret is to get creative, think outside the square, and not be afraid to have a go.

The other reason you have to be committed is because in order to succeed you are going to have to take risk. You are going to risk failure, loss, criticism, resistance, change, success. Analyze the risks and determine if you are prepared for those risks, and discover what you are willing to risk to achieve what you want to achieve. The better prepared you are, the easier things will be when you meet challenges.

You will also have to face your fears. The truth is, the reason we keep achieving the same frustrating results day in, day out; month in, month out; year in, year out, is because, on some level, we feel safe where we are. It is familiar to us and we don’t want to rock the boat and step into the unknown, just in case it’s even worse than where we already are!

To realize new goals, you must be prepared to invest in yourself. You will never be the same person once you decide to pursue a goal and actively take steps to achieve that goal. This means tremendous personal growth. So you must invest time and, inevitably, it’s going to cost you some money as well.  That is the nature of our world. In order to acquire something, you must spend financially. It can be a little or a lot, but it is pretty much a guarantee you will not be able to achieve your goals with investing some money in acquiring knowledge, skills, tools and, the best investment you will ever make, specialized coaching.

I’m not saying that there aren’t great free resources available to help you along the way. Far from it. Check out free webinars, podcasts, articles, subscribe to the websites of leading motivational speakers, healers and other authorities on success in whatever area of your life you are looking to excel. There is so much free information out there you will get a great start by investing your most valuable resource of all …….. your time.

So, get clear on what you want to achieve and commit yourself 150%. Adopt a ‘no matter what’ attitude and, in time, I assure you, your success is guaranteed.

The discovery of this energy system was the basis for the development of the widely recognised acupuncture therapy which uses needles to stimulate the meridian points which lie on specific points along the twelve major energetic pathways.  Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years to relieve pain and treat a wide variety of illnesses.  The WHO (World Health Organisation) has cited 104 conditions that can be effectively treated with acupuncture.

More recently, therapists began experimenting with acupressure.  This is based on the same principles as acupuncture, but applying pressure to the meridian points rather than using needles.  In the 1980’s two psychiatrists, John Diamond and Roger Callahan, experimented with the meridian points for relieving negative emotions such as anxiety, phobias and emotional pain and trauma.  Roger Callahan’s work led to the development of Thought Field Therapy (TFT).

TFT was a major breakthrough in therapy and is one form of what is now termed energy psychology. The theory behind this relatively new form of therapy is based on the concept that negative emotional and psychological imbalances cause blockages in our energy field.  Stimulating the main meridian points by tapping on them with your fingertips whilst thinking about the issue in question clears the blockage and the emotion is released, permanently.

As we begin to understand the direct relationship between emotional imbalances and physical discomfort, it is becoming more and more apparent that by treating a particular emotional issue, so the physical representation of that issue is also healed.

Although it is hard to believe that by simply tapping on various meridian points on the face and hands can dramatically and permanently change deeply established emotions within a matter of minutes, as well as help to heal long term chronic illness and pain, as yet another treatment has not been found that is as fast or effective as energy psychology.

TFT was quite involved and complex and Gary Craig sought to simplify the process and developed Emotional Freedom Technique, commonly referred to as EFT. This simple form of energy psychology is extraordinary in that it can be learned within 5 to 10 minutes, produces magical results and can be used virtually anytime, anywhere and literally for everything.

There are not guarantees that using EFT will relieve a particular condition instantly or permanently at first.  Sometimes it may take a number of tapping sessions to find the underlying cause of a certain complaint. And a negative emotion may have many layers that present over a period of time to be resolved.  But still, EFT has a tendency to succeed at times when all other therapies have failed because it leads the sufferer to the main cause for the discomfort, sometimes quickly, sometimes more slowly, so it can be resolved for ever.

Thousands of sceptics the world over have been converted to avid believers within minutes by a simple demonstration of it’s effectiveness on issues affecting the disbeliever.  If you have not yet explored the magic of EFT, you have no time to waste.

Sound therapy is one of the most common forms of vibrational medicine where musical instruments or the human voice are used with the intention to heal and have been effectively used by many cultures in healing rituals for centuries. Until recently, however, the power of these traditions have not been explored or tested in modern day scientific realms.

Shamans used chanting and drumming to heal people, while ancient mystery schools in Greece, Egypt and India developed sound into a sacred science. The ancient Greeks used the flute and the lyre to heal the body and soul and to treat illnesses such as gout and sciatica. Pythagoras is known to have used specific songs and incantations to cure diseases of the body and mind. There are even theories suggesting that the great Pyramids were constructed using sound.

While the use of sound and music can be found in many spiritual and sacred cultural traditions, sound healing is only now being rediscovered in the healing arts. Supported by scientific research, the basic principle of sound healing is that all matter is energy which is eternal and in a constant state of vibration, or resonance. This vibration is the basic foundation for all existence.

The body has approximately 100 trillion cells, and every one of these cells is controlled by an electromagnetic field, which is resonating at its own unique sound frequency. So in effect, your entire body, including your bones, tissues and organs, has it’s own personal vibratory rate, which is as unique as your own fingerprint.

When all aspects of our being are balanced, and our body is vibrating at its’ optimum frequency, we are in a state of health.  However, when this frequency changes and different parts of the body become dis-harmonious, we enter a dis-eased state. The science of Cymatics (specific frequencies are projected into a clients body via musical instruments to create physiological, emotional and mental changes) shows that bringing a diseased organ such as the kidney or liver back into harmony using corrective frequencies will cause it to return to a state of health.

A leading pioneer in the sound healing field, Jonathan Goldman, states that  an extremely important factor in any healing relationship is intention, and that combining intention with frequency creates the transformation experience that encompasses sound healing.

The human voice is considered to be the supreme instrument of healing. Toning refers to the use of the voice for releasing pain and stress and helps to balance the body with healing frequencies. Overtoning is a technique whereby a practitioner allows themselves to be a channel to allow sacred healing sound and will then voice intuitively inspired sounds.

The practice of overtoning can have astonishing results. When you consider the scientific research acknowledging that sound can literally rearrange molecular structure, it is entirely possible for miraculous changes to occur including release of tension in the muscles, reduction or elimination of chronic pain, emotional release, realignment of the vertebrae and much more. Following a treatment, recipients of overtoning report feelings of deep inner peace and relaxation, blissful emotions, feeling light headed, release from physical pain, increased feelings of well-being and much more.

Fabien Maman, a French composer and bioenergeticist, experimented with the impact of sound waves on healthy cells and uterine cancer cells using a camera mounted on a microscope. When musical scales were sung to them, the diseased cells became disorganized. Maman also experimented with toning using two breast cancer patients. Each of the patients toned for three and a half hours a day for a month. In one case, the tumor completely vanished, while, when the other woman had her tumor surgically removed, the surgeon reported the malignant tumor had shrunk significantly in size and there were no metastases; the patient made a complete recovery.

Scientists at Michigan State University have found that listening to healing music significantly increases levels of interleukin-1 in the bloodstream. Interleukins are a family of proteins associated a variety of physical benefits including cellular protection against AIDS, cancer and other diseases. This same study also reduced levels of the stress hormone, cortisol in participants, which suppresses the immune system and is considered a significant contributing factor in modern diseases including diabetes, cancer, heart disease and many more.

Healers and therapists working with sound and music today are fortunate to be able to follow in the footsteps of ancient traditions by combining the magic of healing sound with science and technology. We are rediscovering that we are open instruments of energy, from the tiniest sub-cellular level of our own bodies to the far reaches of our universe. By utilising this knowledge, healers and therapists are guiding humanity back to the roots of the most ancient healing practices, and creating a new frontier in the healing arts with sound as healer.

Muse – Uprising Lyrics

Paranoia is in bloom
The PR transmissions will resume
They’ll try to push drugs that keep us all dumbed down
And hope that we will never see the truth around
(So come on)
Another promise, another scene
Another packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed
And all the green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
(So Come on)

Interchanging mind control
Come let the revolution take its toll
If you could flick a switch and open your third eye
You’d see that
We should never be afraid to die
(So come on)

Rise up and take the power back
Its time the fat cats had a heart attack
You know that their time’s coming to an end
we have to unify and watch our flag ascend

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
So come on

Anger

This is possibly one of the most widespread emotions in our community and many of us don’t even realise how it is controlling our lives.  We have road rage, sport rage, surf rage, computer rage, desk rage, web rage………….. and the list goes on.  It seems whatever activity you can participate in, there is rage associated with it.

The interesting thing is that it is not actually these activities that make us angry.  There is already a torrent of rage, tightly contained and bubbling fiercely beneath the surface. These particular situations are just the trigger for the eruption when it can no longer be contained.  Unfortunately, most of us do not associate our outbursts with anything deeper or more sinister and once that particular incident is over, and we have released the overflow, the lid goes back onto the melting pot to simmer away until the next episode that creates the volatility to again rear it’s ugly head.

Unfortunately we are discouraged from expressing anger from when we are very small because it is an unacceptable emotion.  If an emotion is not expressed it is suppressed.  It is merely stored until an appropriate moment or until no more can be stored and it has no choice but to emerge, often as an over reaction to what may seemingly be a relatively harmless moment.

It would be more appropriate, and so much better for our health, if the emotion was expressed fully and released at the time it surfaced in the first instance.  This expression would be a lot less volatile than the type of anger we have become so afraid of.  Anger has accumulated and become rage in our community to such the point where it is causing extreme illness and a lot of pain and suffering. There is significant evidence that shows chronic anger can lead to cardiovascular problems such as heart attack and stroke.

While EFT can certainly reduce the intensity of anger immediately, it may take days or even weeks of tapping to uncover all the layers to really release anger at its very core.  This depends on how quickly the person can get to the core issue where it all started.  It also depends on how willing the person is to experience their anger and admit just how deep it runs.  Of course, theoretically, EFT can eliminate all the anger in a very short period of time, it all depends on the persons willingness to ‘go there’.

Guilt

Guilt is another common emotion, particularly for women. Under normal circumstances our guilt system is triggered if we violate a closely held belief or value.  Guilt is our consciences way of telling us we have done something wrong and change our behaviour for the better.  However, today many of us feel guilty for unreasonable issues of responsibility such as letting our family down because we can’t do everything, or because we are not perfect, or not meeting somebody else’s expectations, or even because somebody has violated us and made us feel like it was our fault.  There is also evidence that particular medications, including some blood pressure medications, can cause feelings of guilt when we are actually quite innocent.

EFT is not designed to vanquish emotions that are appropriate or necessary, such as releasing guilt so a person can behave irresponsibly with no sense of consequence toward others.  Instead, EFT is designed to release negative emotions that are unreasonable and causing long term distress for the sufferer.

Guilt is a very destructive emotion and, like anger, should be allowed to unravel in a time frame that is right for the person who is suffering it.  Again this could be a matter of minutes, or it could be weeks or even months.  If the core issue is particularly traumatic, the unconscious mind may protect the sufferer from it’s full depth until he or she is mentally and emotionally able to deal with it appropriately.

Loneliness

Human connection is essential for most individuals to experience true happiness.  A large majority of our society are living in loneliness.  This may seem a contradiction as our cities are growing exponentially and overpopulation could be a very real problem in the foreseeable future.  It is important to note that a person can be surrounded by family and friends and yet still feel incredibly lonely.  It is the connection of the human spirit that is most important and this is only gained through intimate connection with another.

As our community grows, so we are isolating ourselves more and more.  Building fortresses for homes and protecting ourselves from personal pain by becoming withdrawn and insular, even from members of our own family.  This is also exacerbated by our thirst to be distracted from our everyday lives by TV’s, computers, digital games, mp3 players, or any one of the multitude of technological gadgets designed for our entertainment.

For this reason, loneliness is in fact a very complex issue and it is important to become aware of the pain that has caused you to disconnect from the people around you, or to even isolate yourself from society completely, e.g. those who spend most of their time on a computer rather than in direct personal communication.

Once the direct causes of the isolation are being dealt with, a person can begin to feel comfortable in re-establishing a heart to heart communication with the people around them.  Pain is an inevitable part of our journey, but it shouldn’t control our lives and prevent us from living with open hearts, able to experience joy. Unfortunately, if we shut ourselves away from pain, we cannot fully experience the range of all other emotions either.

By understanding the complexity of the human mind, EFT can be used to effectively eliminate these emotions, but patience should be exercised as it may not be safe for an individual to fully realise the extent of deep emotions.  It is important to note, however, that even though EFT may take a little time to completely eradicate all aspects of some negative emotions, not only is it extremely effective in reducing the intensity of these feelings within a matter of minutes, it can reduce treatment times with conventional talk therapy by years.

Our bodies energy meridian points were established thousands of years ago and have been used by many cultures ever since.  EFT involves stimulating these meridian points by tapping on them with your fingertips. This tapping enables you to release stored trauma and negative emotions which disrupt your energy system, consequently bringing relief from pain on various levels.

A growing number of health practitioners, even in traditional medicine, now recognise the connection between our emotions and physical pain and disease, to the point where negative emotions are now considered to be the major contributor to most physical ailments.

Beliefs of Eastern medicine which have been around for over 5,000 years, were echoed by Albert Einstein in the 1920’s when he stated that everything, including our own bodies, is composed of energy.

Regrettably, Western Medicine has ignored these ancient philosophies for hundreds of years, unwittingly and unnecessarily prolonging our pain and suffering.  This is why energy healing methods such as EFT work when nothing else will.

Instead of taking months or years with conventional counselling, EFT can fast track results down to even one or two sessions.  Positive results are literally experienced within minutes of beginning the tapping.  This emotional clearing soon results in the fading of physical pain and discomfort.  The symptoms may even vanish altogether.

Emotional Freedom Technique also has the ability to change negative belief systems about ourselves that limit our potential and prevent us from living the life we deserve.

Once you have learned the EFT Technique you can use it anywhere for virtually anything. It is quick to learn and incredibly easy to use.

There are two main types of problems typically addressed by EFT.  The first occurs when an event affects specific meridian points in your energy system, resulting in emotional pain and feelings of inadequacy.  When a meridian is affected by trauma, some of it’s energy may be reduced which creates an imbalance.  Tapping the meridian point increases energy flow at that spot, which re-balances the energy system.

The other type of problem is psychological reversal.  This is where a particular event, good or bad, has created painful memories for us, and whenever we think about that event, or experience a similar one, we re-experience the associated feelings at that time all over again.  This learned response to negative situations explains why people develop and repeat negative behaviours that keep sabotaging their lives and can’t seem to break the cycle.

Psychological reversals may prove more difficult to treat as these can reside deep in the subconscious, hiding to prevent being discovered.  EFT can uncover some very surprising beliefs about yourself and your environment that you never knew you had.  These revelations, or epiphanies as I call them, often enable a great deal of self realisation that can bring a rush of understanding, opening up a whole new and exciting world.

Using EFT yourself everyday is very effective and will transform your life.  Sometimes when issues are particularly deep and recurring, working with a practitioner increases the effectiveness of the technique.  This is because often our subconscious will not allow us to discover some of the core issues responsible for our emotional pain and a practitioner can assist in uncovering those hidden negative emotions.

Consider EFT the missing link in your pursuit of health and happiness.

Happy tapping!

Based on the same principals of acupuncture, E.F.T. utilises the main meridian points on the body that are integral to the bodies subtle energy system to release physical, emotional, mental and spiritual imbalances.  This energy system was discovered by the Chinese approximately 5,000 years ago and is referred to by various names including Chi, Ki, Prana, Life Force and Life Energy.

There are twelve major energy meridians in the body which run from the top of your head, through your fingers and right down to your toes.  These meridians are channels that carry energy throughout the body, while meridian points are specific points located on the surface of the skin and are the points which are stimulated to obtain energy shifts in the emotional body to help heal any manner of complaint or condition.

There are typically seventeen meridian points that are used during the process.  These include:

·         Eyebrow Point – beginning of the eyebrow, near the bridge of the nose (trauma, frustration, restlessness)

·         Side of eye – on the bony orbit at the side of either eye (rage)

·         Under eye – on the bony orbit underneath the eye, directly under the pupil (anxiety, nervousness, phobias, cravings)

·         Under nose – under the nose, in the crevice about the upper lip (embarrassment, psychological reversals)

·         Under bottom lip – in the depression between the lip and the chin (shame)

·         Under collarbone – directly below the knob of the collarbone that is next to the depression below the Adam’s apple (anxiety, insecurity)

·         Under arm – approx six inches below the arm pit – on the bra strap for the women (anxiety, nervousness, cravings, self-esteem)

·         Under breast – directly under the breast, approx where the rib cage ends (this point is often left out for reasons of discretion) (unhappiness)

·         Thumbnail – on the inside tip of the thumb where the nail meets the cuticle (intolerance, arrogance)

·         Index fingernail – on the inside tip of the index finger where the nail meets the cuticle (guilt)

·         Middle fingernail – on the inside tip of the middle finger where the nail meets the cuticle (jealousy, addictive)

·         Little fingernail – on the inside tip of the little finger where the nail meets the cuticle (anger)

·         Back of hand – between knuckles of the little and ring fingers (depression, loneliness, physical pain)

·         Karate chop – this is located on the side of the where the crease crosses the edge of the hand closest to the little finger (sadness, psychological reversals)

·         Forehead – above and between the eyebrows (trauma, anxiety, addiction, depression)

·         Chest – between and slightly down from the under collarbone points (improve immune system function)

·         Sore Spot – On the left side of the chest, midway between the collarbone and down toward the breast.  This is often quite sore, even painful (psychological reversals).

Although each spot is useful for specific emotions and pain, they are combined during the EFT process as very rarely does one emotion exist on it’s own and it can be impossible and time consuming to pinpoint all the emotions associated with a particular event or issue.  Therefore it is much easier to combine the majority of the points into one quick and easy process so all associated emotions are treated at once.
