Healing with “EFT”…

Emotional Freedom Techniques, also known as EFTs, are a form of psychological acupressure — which in English, just means pressing spots on the body that calm the mind. EFT actually uses the same spots that traditional acupuncture has used over 5,000 years – just without the needles!

So How Is It Done?

It’s pretty simple really, using your fingers, you just tap along the key pressure points on your body. Tapping on our “meridians,” or energetic pathways throughout the body may help to calm and to relax us, helping to release intense feelings or anxiety.

This is great news for parents, caretakers, and kind-hearted samaritans who want to help but may not know how, at first.
