Trauma can often have a devastating impact on our emotional and physical health. EFT or Emotional -Freedom Technique is a super simple tapping therapy

But what exactly is EFT Tapping?

A combination of Ancient Chinese Acupressure and Modern Psychology, tapping disrupts the repetitive emotional cycles which keep us stuck- quickly getting to the heart of the issue, working to rewire the brain, calm the amygdala, and create a sense of safety in the body to ease stress and release stored trauma responses.

The emotional freedom technique (EFT) tapping sequence is a sequence used while tapping on the ends of nine meridian points.

Twelve main meridians reflect each side of the body and correspond to an internal organ.

To perform sequencing, you tap each meridian point while saying a reminder phrase. The sequence that has to be followed while tapping includes:

1. Top of the Head (TOH)
2. Beginning of the Eyebrow (EB)
3. Side of the eye (SE)
4. Under the eye (UE)
5. Under the Nose (UN)
6. Chin point (CH)
7. Beginning of the collarbone (CB)
8. Under the arm (UA)
9. Karate chop (KC)

Our guest today, Eric Almeida, is an Emotional-Focused Therapy practitioner. Using EFT to manage his own traumatic experience with often crippling social anxiety as a template.
