otherwise known as tapping,

00:00:08

is an energy tool created in the United States in 1993

00:00:13

by an engineer named Gary Craig.

00:00:16

The goal of EFT is to alleviate

00:00:19

the emotional and psychological suffering of people.

00:00:23

It is practiced through the stimulation of points located

00:00:27

on the meridian paths listed by Chinese medicine.

00:00:31

In this video,

00:00:32

I will explain a simplified protocol of EFT

00:00:36

and demonstrate its application in a particular work stress situation.

00:00:42

What is EFT?

00:00:44

The concept is relatively simple.

00:00:47

You balance the energy system by tapping on acupuncture points.

00:00:52

These stimulated points are the meridians,

00:00:55

entry or exit points that are close to the surface of the skin

00:01:00

and are more easily accessible than other points.

00:01:04

Tapping them

00:01:05

will make it possible to recirculate wisely energy

00:01:09

in the meridians.

00:01:11

Here are the main points

00:01:13

the eyebrow,

00:01:14

the side eye,

00:01:16

under eye,

00:01:17

under nose,

00:01:19

chin,

00:01:20

collarbone,

00:01:21

under arm,

00:01:23

under breast,

00:01:24

and concerning the hand,

00:01:27

the thumb,

00:01:27

the corner of the nail,

00:01:29

the index finger,

00:01:31

the middle finger,

00:01:32

and the little finger.

00:01:34

Tap firmly

00:01:35

with your index and middle fingers.

00:01:38

From experience I can tell you that by tapping with two fingers you

00:01:43

are 95% certain to be in the right place of the area.

00:01:47

In any case,

00:01:49

energy follows intention,

00:01:51

so the acupuncture point will react as an echo to stimulate it.

00:01:56

So don't embarrass yourself with the question,

00:01:58

am I really in the right place?

00:02:00

Trust yourself.

00:02:02

Trust your body's ability to self-regulate

00:02:05

its energy according to your intention.

00:02:08

You will have to say a short statement

00:02:10

by tapping on each of the points,

00:02:12

which means that you will give between 5 and 9 small blows on each point.

00:02:19

At the beginning of the sequence of an EFT tapping,

00:02:22

I recommend that you tap on what is called the psychological reversal points 3,

00:02:29

the third point of the small intestine meridian.

00:02:33

This point is also called the karate chop and easy to find on the edge of the hand.

00:02:39

Tap it

00:02:40

either with two fingers,

00:02:41

alternate one hand,

00:02:43

then the other,

00:02:44

or with the edge of the hand,

00:02:46

which allows to stimulate both hands at the same time.

00:02:50

The objective

00:02:51

is to tell the truth of the problem

00:02:54

and to love oneself despite or with this truth.

00:03:00

One thus says at least 3 times the

00:03:03

following affirmation by tapping on the karate chop.

00:03:08

For example,

00:03:09

even though I'm scared to speak in public,

00:03:12

I love myself,

00:03:13

I accept myself,

00:03:15

and I respect myself deeply and totally.

00:03:18

Another example,

00:03:20

even if this client gets on my nerves,

00:03:23

I love myself.

00:03:24

I accept myself,

00:03:25

and I respect myself deeply and totally.

00:03:29

The last example,

00:03:31

even if I'm accumulating the difficulties,

00:03:34

I love myself.

00:03:35

I accept myself,

00:03:37

and I respect myself deeply and totally.

00:03:41

It is difficult in a video training to teach you this tapping.

00:03:45

However,

00:03:45

I propose to you a small demonstration.

00:03:48

Which I hope will make you want

00:03:50

to discover more about this extraordinary technique.

00:03:54

Let's imagine that your stress is related to a work overload.

00:03:58

Let's start by correcting

00:04:01

the psychological reversal.

00:04:03

Even though

00:04:04

I'm overworked,

00:04:06

I love myself.

00:04:07

I accept myself,

00:04:09

and I respect myself deeply and totally.

00:04:12

Even if overwhelmed,

00:04:14

I love myself.

00:04:15

I accept myself,

00:04:16

and I respect myself deeply and totally,

00:04:20

even though I'm really overworked.

00:04:22

I love myself.

00:04:24

I accept myself,

00:04:25

and I respect myself deeply and totally.

00:04:29

If you stop at this first step,

00:04:32

it's already powerful enough to initiate an energy change.

00:04:36

The second stage of EFT

00:04:39

is to make tapping rounds.

00:04:42

I am really overloaded.

00:04:44

I'm overloaded.

00:04:45

I really don't have too much work to do.

00:04:48

I don't know what to do anymore.

00:04:50

I'm overwhelmed.

00:04:52

How am I going to get there?

00:04:54

I'm so overloaded.

00:04:56

I am tired.

00:04:57

I can't take it anymore.

00:04:59

With all this extra work that overwhelms me.

00:05:03

I'm really very tired,

00:05:06

and it's been going on for months.

00:05:08

I don't know what to do anymore.

00:05:11

You can dare to empty your emotions and

00:05:14

say what's on your mind without any censorship.

00:05:18

The important thing is to express,

00:05:21

to make the blocked energy circulate.

00:05:24

For example,

00:05:25

you can say.

00:05:27

I'm sick and tired of all this work.

00:05:30

I can't take it any more.

00:05:32

Nobody understands me.

00:05:34

No one cares.

00:05:36

My boss sees nothing,

00:05:38

hears nothing.

00:05:39

If this continues,

00:05:41

I'm going to fall down.

00:05:42

They will be blamed for it.

00:05:44

I'm really fed up.

00:05:45

We are pressed like lemons,

00:05:48

and I don't know how to say no.

00:05:51

I'm really stupid to say yes to everything.

00:05:54

And who's gonna help me in the story?

00:05:57

I'm just overwhelmed,

00:05:59

overwhelmed and disgusted,

00:06:02

all a bunch of incompetence,

00:06:04

and I'm on my knees.

00:06:06

I don't know how I'm going to do it.

00:06:09

It makes me sad,

00:06:10

sad and angry,

00:06:12

all this work that's piling up.

00:06:15

And I'm coming home from work later and later.

00:06:18

I can't sleep well anymore.

00:06:20

I really need a vacation.

00:06:22

I am overwhelmed,

00:06:24

stressed and overwhelmed.

00:06:27

Without censorship,

00:06:29

continue the rounds.

00:06:31

Do 3 or more rounds,

00:06:33

even if you repeat the same words.

00:06:35

When you feel that the stress is out,

00:06:38

you can continue the rounds with more positive words such as,

00:06:43

What if there was a solution?

00:06:45

What if I could find a balance?

00:06:48

What if I could return to normal schedules?

00:06:51

Going to work in the morning with a smile on my face,

00:06:55

coming back in the evening with a smile?

00:06:57

What if there were options that I didn't think of?

00:07:01

What if I could be less tired?

00:07:03

At the end of this questioning session,

00:07:06

when you're ready,

00:07:07

you can anchor the positive.

00:07:10

Um,

00:07:11

it would be nice to find a way out.

00:07:13

Um,

00:07:14

it would be nice to get some positive energy back at work.

00:07:19

Um,

00:07:19

it would be nice to have my stomach knots untied.

00:07:23

Mm,

00:07:23

it would be nice to work at an appropriate pace.

00:07:27

Mm,

00:07:27

it would be nice to find solutions.

00:07:29

And after the round or rounds,

00:07:32

if you work on this subject several days in a row because it is very stressful,

00:07:37

let the ideas and solutions come to you.

00:07:40

You can use the FT on any subject of stress

00:07:44

or

00:07:45

even if I am in conflict with David,

00:07:48

I love myself.

00:07:49

I accept myself.

00:07:51

I deeply and totally respect myself.

00:07:54

I am in conflict with David.

00:07:56

He annoys me so much.

00:07:58

It's been going on for years.

00:08:00

He pushes me to the limit.

00:08:02

I am angry.

00:08:03

I am very angry.

00:08:05

If I could give him a slap,

00:08:07

oh,

00:08:07

he deserves that I tell him a few home truths.

00:08:11

I'll tell him he's a loser.

00:08:13

Does that seem violent to you,

00:08:15

those little sentences that we never dare to express and which remain stuck in us?

00:08:21

Yes,

00:08:22

behind the stress there is often a lot of anger

00:08:25

that unbalances your energy

00:08:27

and prevents you from finding solutions.

00:08:30

EFT is one of the best ways that I know

00:08:34

to relieve stress,

00:08:36

welcome the emotions and express thoughts that

00:08:39

have been rehashed or even censored.

00:08:41

Expressing freely our stuck emotions and thoughts

00:08:45

while circulating energy through energetic tapping,

00:08:50

EFT releases the stress and prevents us from exploding one day

00:08:55

like a pressure cooker because we've kept everything in ourselves.

00:08:59

It's like carrying dark thoughts and emotions in a torrent

00:09:03

to evacuate the stuck waste so that it cleans you,

00:09:07

everything in you,

00:09:08

all your physical.

00:09:09

And mental tensions.

00:09:11

EFT is therefore an extraordinary technique to

00:09:15

relieve the stress accumulated in daily life,

00:09:18

but not only for that.

00:09:19

There are even more complete or slightly different protocols of EFT.

00:09:25

Some tap the top of the head,

00:09:27

others tap the gamut point.

00:09:29

I use EFT a lot in my sessions when I'm

00:09:32

dealing with coaches who are overwhelmed by their stress.

00:09:36

First of all,

00:09:37

EFT regulates and balances their emotion and energy.

00:09:42

Then they can think about a strategy

00:09:44

and make the best decisions.

00:09:46

It's worth a try

00:09:47

or train yourself.
