Emotional Freedom Technique for Dummies
In my recent post, The Top 7 Best-Selling EFT Books on Amazon . I was surprised at the time of writing that one book wasn’t there. Emotional Freedom Technique for Dummies . Many people seem to be searching for it on Google and it is the only book on EFT in my local library. I hear a new campaign coming on!
So : Emotional Freedom Technique for Dummies by Helena Fone (4.5 out of 5 stars)
My biggest gripe about the book would be the use of the word Dummies. Yes, I know it is very good marketing and congratulations to Helena for getting the commission. But, I’ll tell you. You, dear reader ain’t no Dummy!
Even though I have this issue with the word dummy ….
Even though I don’t like being called a dummy… (they’re for me)
The title aside. This book I think is pretty good. As with all dummy type books. The topic area is easily and well explained with clear and sometimes humorous illustrations.
This books is certainly much easier going that Gary Craig’s manual. Yet, Gary’s manual is a manual and not necessarily meant as an easy to read book. Two different books for two different audiences I feel. If you’re from the US, you may not like the Dummies book, since it is writing using UK English and phrases not US English.
The best advice I can give is this: This is an introduction to EFT and how EFT tapping can be applied to many different areas and challenges. If you’re coming or new to EFT it is a great start. If you are wanting a particular result and are using EFT tapping as your tool or technique of choice. There probably is a book, CD,DVD etc. that is more tailored to your specific needs.

EFT – 6 Reasons It Doesn’t Work and How to Avoid Them

Are you not having the success with EFT that you want and deserve?
I’ve tapped for day, weeks, hours on an issue and nothing; I mean nothing I said or did seemed to make any difference whatsoever.
That was until I discovered how to have continual success with EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique.
What is the secret?
1 Time Only Tapping Only
Beginners to EFT, think EFT is the magic, quick fix, a 2 minute solution to all their problems – large and small. Sometimes it is. Yet, quite often you’ll need to tap more then once to be completely free of your negative emotion.
Tap 5 rounds on and around what you are feeling. Notice the shift that happens.
Remember you can start your set-up phrase Even though I have this… then move onto Even though I have this remaining… or Even though I still … Say it as thought you mean it!
2.Not Being Specific Enough
Most of the time, you will be tapping far too generally. I feel this emotion i.e. unhappiness. If you can’t put what you are wanting or feeling in a shopping basket. You are not being specific enough with your tapping. – Describe what you are feeling out loud to clarify your thoughts. Grab a dictionary and thesaurus. Look for different words to describe your experience and emotion. Imagine you had to write a letter explaining what is going on.
3.Result Expectation
When you tap, do you secretly want a particular result or ending and it does not happen? EFT always works, just not always as you expect or want. Relax! There are may ways to get an outcome. After all it is the end result that you want. Not the way to get there.
4.Not Covering Your Basics
Basic EFT is very methodical and easy to follow for a reason – It works! If you miss out pieces how can you expect to get the result that you want? Follow the basic recipe. Learn what works for you, which are your power points. Then start fiddling.
5.Forgetting the Set-up Phrase
If you do not have what you want. You are blocking your own success. Stop! Yes, you are blocking it. Always do the set-up phrase to begin neutralising your own internal blocks to your success.
6.You Think EFT It Is Not Working
Before a round of tapping score your emotional intensity from 0-10. 0 begin no intensity or emotion, 10 – maximum, feeling it, big time!
Take your score again when you are finished. If there is no change in score, has the emotion changed in another way? Its shape, location, colour or feeling? ARe you really tapping on what you are feeling.
Even though I don’t think this EFT is working for me and I don’t know why…
Even though I’m afraid to admit it is working….
Even though I don’t want it to work because…
If nothing seems to really be working. Take some time out. Go do something else. The number of times you’ll hear a word or be inspired to do something is uncanny.
EFT always works!
Have you discovered why EFT sometimes doesn’t appear to work for you?

The Secret 6 Beliefs of EFT

Have you ever found yourself just going through the motions with EFT and not getting the results you deserve?
I’ve found that within the EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) community there seem to be several key, secret, assumed beliefs that will really help you develop your own skill with EFT and the results that you get personally and with anybody else that you introduce to EFT.
All you need to do is think about, answer these questions and think about these statements. You can say the answers out loud or just by thinking them over you’ll shift up a gear or 3.
What are these hidden questions and beliefs?
1.When you tap, what will help you explode your results without even trying?
As you tap, I find it often useful to ask myself, what is the one question I could ask which would allow this problem to disappear forever.
2.You are always more than you think you are.
This goes without saying. Yet, if you allow this belief to permeate all that you do. You will constantly keep growing, developing and getting more out of your EFT and life.
3. Everything has 2 sides.
Every problem, every decision, goal or in fact anything has 2 sides to it.
Having it, NOT having it. Just by adding the word NOT or leaving it out from your EFT statements and rounds of tapping can have a traumatic effect on your success with EFT.
4.How Can I Create My Own Powerful Positive Statements?
Just by thinking how can I create my own powerful positive statements, you’ll naturally head in that direction. By asking this question, you’ll begin to come up with your own positive powerful EFT statements
5.EFT Always Works.
How much of this is EFT, how much of this is belief? I don’t know. Yet, all I do know is that if you belief EFT always works. You’ll always get a result from it, even when you’re stuck.
6.The Simplest Way to Get Ahead in EFT.
This is really simple, yet often overlooked. USE IT! Use it on yourself. Use it on others. Use it for others. If you notice somebody you could do with some EFT. Pretend you are them. If you notice them having a challenge, you also have that challenge on some level.
Warning!
Holding onto these 6 ideas may just change you and your success with EFT in more ways than you can imagine. Are you ready to change your life?
What do you believe to be true about you about EFT?
