Clearing Shadows With EFT

In this section I am going to take you through several EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) sessions addressing issues you may face in your trading. Similar to Micro EFT you are tapping on a number of meridians. EFT is different from Micro EFT in two ways: You are tapping on several points, doing what we call “rounds”. You will be doing several tapping rounds. The number of rounds varies and is not fixed. Generally, once you have tapped three rounds or so, you will notice an energetic shift. Your view of the issue you are addressing is beginning to change.


EFT is more involved than Micro EFT and takes longer to do. It is not necessary to do EFT several times per day. Instead, you will do one session per day and repeat this session every day for a week and then move to the next session. EFT goes deeper into issues, hence it is ideal to use for those subconscious, deep rooted shadows that may be stopping you from moving forward. EFT will bring subconscious issues to the fore, just as Micro EFT does, but it is a more powerful process.


Please follow the instructions exactly and don’t be tempted to use short cuts. And now to the process:

The EFT Process

  1. If you are new to the EFT process familiarise yourself with the tapping points first.
  2. Check the intensity level of your issue from a scale of 0 to 10. A rating of 0 means no problem. A rating of 10 is very intense.
  3. Concentrate on the problem/ issue that you want to resolve.
  4. This procedure forms the basis of your set up phrase which you will formulate now.
  5. Now form an abbreviated version of your set up phrase. Use this to tap the sequence.
  6. Begin by tapping the Karate Chop Point, whilst speaking out aloud your set up phrase
  7. Always tap with your right hand on the left hand Karate Chop Point, or K.C.P.
  8. Tap on the meridian points whilst speaking out aloud the reminder phrase. You may use either the left or the right hand for the tapping sequence.
  9. Re-assess the intensity level of your issue. If it is above 2 repeat the session.

The tapping points are:
The crown of the head
The left or right eyebrow
The bone on the side of either eye
Under either eye, just where you can feel the bone under the eye socket
Under the nose
Chin, tap in the crevice
Either left or right side of the collarbone, tap in the hollow part just under the
bone
Under arm, either left or right, about three inches down



Before you begin you may want to familiarise yourself with the tapping points on the illustration on page 90.

How to best work with the sessions

Familiarize yourself with the tapping techniques, as outlined in the next paragraph, if you are new to EFT. Make sure you remember the tapping points as this will help you to concentrate better on the phrases as you go through the tapping sequence.


You can do the sessions in any order. Go to the sessions that “speak” to you most first.


However, in order to get the best results I recommend that you do all the sessions in this book.


Do only one session per day. This allows you to digest the sessions and allows time for fresh insights to come to your conscious mind and integrate them in between sessions.


Repetition is always king.


Repeat each session for five days before moving to the next one. As your perspectives change you will gain new, valuable understandings of old problems.


You are evolving all the time, even if you are unaware of it to begin with. The person you were when you did an EFT session last week or even only yesterday is a different person today.


Pace yourself through the tapping process


Set aside about 15 minutes a day and don’t rush the process. Slow tapping and staying with the individual points tapping 7 to 10 times on each point works best, particularly in the beginning.


Don’t get hung up on the number of times you tap on each point. The number is simply a guideline to give you a feeling for the rhythm you need to develop.


If you go through the sequence too fast you may not tune into your emotions properly.


I find that a fairly slow tapping pace heightens your awareness.


Feel free to experiment once you have done the sessions. The sessions are designed to lead you to recognise other blockages you may have. As you do EFT and Micro EFT many hitherto subconscious thoughts will come to your conscious awareness. You will begin to see connections you did not see before.


Use what you have learned from the sessions in this book as your template for further work. And please remember: EFT is a powerful process. If you experience severe reactions see an experienced practitioner. Your well being is your responsibility.
