Quit Smoking With EFT

Releasing Anxiety, Cravings & Stress With EFT Self Help Acu-Tapping


Many people who have needed help with reducing anxiety which is so strongly connected with the urge to smoke have found that acupuncture helps surprisingly. The ancient maps of the human energy system have been used to treat all manner of disturbances for at least 10,000 years and are recognised even by the most cynical western scientists these days.

Although acupuncture is very effective, it has the disadvantage that it is performed by a skilled clinician - and the stress and anxiety could occur anywhere, moments of doubt can happen at anytime, and temptation to give into the desire and urge to smoke is always around the corner.

Here is where a surprisingly simple self help system comes into its own - instead of needles, all you have to do is to lightly tap on special points which have the greatest de-stressing effect on the nervous system.

And best of all, this system is entirely free.

Developed by Californian engineer Gary Craig, it is called EFT which is short for Emotional Freedom Techniques and he calls it his "gift to the world". A retired businessman, Mr Craig was interested in personal development and attended trainings in various modalities. With his engineering mind, he took a complex form of acu-tapping technique and turned it into a superbly simple self help protocol that anyone can learn in just five minutes. Better still, anyone can do it at any time they need to de-stress and relax - you can help yourself, even at 4am when there is no-one else around.

Thousands of practitioners around the world use it every day with serious mental health issues and many hundreds of thousands of every day people use it for their own reasons. EFT has been featured in many magazines and news reports because of its rapid effects on phobias and fears, and this proven anti-anxiety effect is exactly the kind of help smokers need to become non-smokers and stay that way.

EFT does not work for everyone, but up to 85% of people who have tried it have rated it from "helpful" to "very helpful".

The full, free protocol and a "2 Minute Stress Relief" shortened version of EFT can be found at http://123EFT.com

Energy EFT Self Help Treatment: An Embarrassing School Memory

The EFT Story protocol is a hugely important pattern with many uses. Apart from the fact that it can treat any problem that has a story which can be told, it is also a wonderful training device to notice the effects of energetic disturbances on the mind/body/spirit system, to learn about de-stressing, about building a stress free path into the heart of the problem, and taking a negative memory through to a real healing event.

In this article, we find important tips on using the Energy EFT story protocol in self help, and a self help session done by Martina Konecna from the Czech Republic, who is student on the Master Practitioner course which is an excellent example how to do the story protocol right.

Tapping EFT For Cancer

Many new EFT practitioners are scared and worried about taking on cancer patients. This is very understandable for many reasons. Amongst those are the fear of being seen to promise a "cure for cancer" - which EFT of course is not; but there are also other fears which include being frightened of the enormity of the problem, of cancer itself, of handling not being able to "heal a person of cancer" miraculously, of the emotions involved, and also, the fear of cancer itself.

However, when we address these fears - which are only energy blockages, energy reversals and energy injuries, after all - we can find that working with cancer patients is one of the most rewarding, energizing, uplifting and beautiful experiences a modern energy practitioner can have.

EFT Energy: EFT With Energy In Mind

EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques, tapping on special energy points whilst tuning in to an emotional problem which needs to be released, is an energy technique. EFT is not hypnosis, it isn't witchcraft, it isn't psychology or a behavioural pattern interrupt, it isn't tissue massage or physiotherapy - EFT is an example of modern energy work.

Trying to deny this simple fact in order to gain "scientific acceptance" is not an option, as energy work is greatly influenced by intention and directed by conscious focus of attention.

Using EFT from the wrong mind set reduces its effectiveness; and conversely, when we apply EFT "with energy in mind," we put EFT in its rightful place in the treatment of the mind, body, spirit triad and we improve its effectiveness, power, ease of use immediately and noticeably.
