EFT is an amazing group of techniques, yet there are certain things it is not. Read more to find out what EFT is not.

1. EFT is not for everybody.



Some of us don't want to change. Pure and simple. You might say you want to. However, your current results are really an indication of whether you really want to change or not. By doing EFT daily and on a multitude of topics. EFT will become a part of you and your daily routine.



2. EFT doesn't work



Writing the above statement actually seems like a lie. EFT does work and it works all the time. The real statement should be EFT doesn't work because we don't always know that it is working for us. This is why before tapping, score yourself, 1-10 on how intense the emotion you are feeling is. After several rounds of tapping are you still tapping on exactly the same issues as when you started? Or has it shifted? The emotion is in a different, location, its size and intensity. After tapping, take your emotional intensity score again.



3. EFT is not THE magic bullet.



With EFT you can have champagne moments. Other times it seems like you have to go round the houses to get to the root cause of what you are feeling or why you do not have something in your life that you want. Also, even though EFT always works, it quite often appears not to work for everybody because it isn't the one thing you can put your finger on as to how and why they have now changed.



4. EFT is too long to do and learn



Most of us do the "short form" of EFT and little else. What makes EFT long, is people not knowing what to tap on and how. In fact many tappers, old and new have EFT paralysis. They are worried they are not doing the tapping correctly or saying the wrong thing when tapping. As long as you say, Even though I XXXXX, I deeply and completely love forgive and accept myself, 3 times. Then tap on your reminder phrase: XXXXXX....... You aren't going to go wrong. In fact you can have great success just tapping on the meridian points and feeling the emotion that you want to clear.



5. EFT is just one technique



EFT is more than one technique. The clue is in the title. Emotional Freedom Techniques. Most of us, myself included do the 'short form'. If things do not shift after doing the short form. You add to it: tapping on the gamut points, changing your set-up phrase ending. Begin asking yourself, have you every felt this before? How and Where?


How you apply EFT and on what is only limited by your imagination, courage and your ability to notice your emotions and knowing that you can improve your current situation.
