Energy Psychology for Self-Healing

by | Jun 19, 2013

Acupuncture point tapping techniques are growing in popularity, primarily because they’re effective and easy to learn. They offer a home based, Energy Medicine approach for dealing with the emotional stress and life energy imbalances that are at the root of much mental, emotional, and physical discomfort.

The original technique, which I was introduced to in 1984, was called Thought Field Therapy(TFT). The premise behind TFT is that disturbing or traumatic emotions, as well as limiting beliefs, are registered as imbalances in the body’s acupuncture meridian system, and that emotional relief can be assisted by balancing the meridian systems and related energy fields through the tapping of acupuncture points.

This is a very different, yet highly effective, body-oriented process that can complement more familiar cognitive approaches to dealing with our emotional health. In 1999 Florida State University published a study showing the effectiveness of the point tapping technique in treating PTSD.

The advantage of these self-empowering processes is that they take little time and work so quickly. You can experiment at home on yourself or on a friend, and in a matter of minutes prove for yourself their efficacy.

While some practitioners use these techniques to eliminate distressing feelings, I would prefer to use them to support our ability to connect with ourselves … energy and feelings … in a more meaningful and compassionate way.

This new way of connecting with ourselves allows our energy to guide us towards a more authentic expression of ourselves. More balance and authenticity support healing on all levels … along with the reduction of pain.

Tapping techniques can be used by adults and children to reduce stress, relieve physical pain, and to increase emotional IQ.
