You have an amazing power to heal yourself, to reduce your pain and speed your healing process. This power was given to you at birth, but most likely you do not use it. Even if you’ve heard about this power, you may not know how to utilize it to your advantage...
It all starts by understanding that there is a definite link between mental, emotional and physical health. This concept has been gaining credibility in recent years, especially after Louise Hay started talking about this subject nearly 20 years ago.
Ms. Hay’s books "Heal Your Body" and "You Can Heal Your Life" explain her philosophy based on understanding how emotions affect our health and how properly stated affirmations can help us regain our health. I highly recommend these books, especially if you want to understand the healing process from the inside out.
Science has proven that stress and mental strain can have an impact in our health. Therefore, it is safe to assume that releasing emotional strain must have a positive impact in our health as well.
Once these facts are brought to our awareness, we are better equipped to help ourselves heal. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a powerful and simple practice that can help alleviate physical pain, diseases, phobias and other emotional issues.
It often works to clear limiting beliefs, and unconscious blocks that can be the cause of many chronic conditions. Some EFT followers claim it can even help create monetary abundance and prosperity. In essence, EFT offers a gentle way of dissolving limitations, freeing you to create a healthier and happier life.
While EFT is not a cure for all diseases, it usually works well for many common ailments. It is safe for all ages, and can be done anywhere and anytime. Frequently, spectacular results can be achieved where nothing else seemed to work.

The following concepts offer some background support as to why this technique works.
It has been said that our unresolved negative emotions, like resentment, anger, traumas, regrets and guilt, are intimately linked to some physical conditions and diseases. For instance, certain types of cancer have been linked to holding feelings of resentment.
If we consider that we are energy systems, it makes sense to assume that every emotion and every experience impacts our energy centers either positively or negatively.
Moreover, there is usually a correlation between the onset of disease and a significant event in life that created some type of trauma. Considering the principles mentioned above, we can conclude that a trauma can produce a blockage in the energy flow.
"The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system."

EFT works by alleviating the blockages in the energy paths much like the concepts of acupuncture except needles are not necessary.
Instead, the meridian points are tapped with your fingertips in a specific sequence to achieve the results you want. EFT is easy, effective and can produce amazing results quite fast.
EFT was originally designed to reduce the psychotherapy process from months and years down to hours or even minutes. From there it was discovered that astonishing physical healings occurred simultaneously. Symptoms faded for everything from migraine headaches to cancer.

EFT is a process that needs to be learned. It has even worked for skeptics. However, some issues may be deeply rooted so the help of a trained EFT therapist could be needed. Having said that, there is no harm in trying it yourself. You can learn about this simple technique by visiting Gary Craig’s site where you can pick up a free EFT guide... I encourage you to give it a try!
"Some day the medical profession will wake up and realize that unresolved emotional issues are the main cause of 85% of all illnesses. When they do, EFT will be one of their primary healing tools.... as it is for me."
