Ways to Wellbeing: Emotional Freedom Technique

EFT works with the body’s internal energy systems. It uses gentle stimulation of the meridians used in treatments such as acupuncture, while simultaneously focussing on the current difficulty. This dual attention helps your brain process whatever might be troubling you and can help to reduce symptoms that the body shares with us, such as back pain, anxiety etc.

Western science has historically been sceptical of many of the holistic approaches; however, recent research has revealed the existence of the vascular system corresponding to many of the meridian points, studies have observed that EFT can make significant changes in brain function.

When we are stressed, the way our brain works changes. Activity in the pre-frontal cortex (linked to memory formation and retrieval, and cognitive processing) reduce, in others words a little like us going “off-line”.

As evidenced by fMRI scans, EFT calms the nervous system and can lead to a permanent change in how your body and mind respond to the natural stress response in the body
