From Gita Shankar
My journey started with Eckhart Tolle’s book “A New Earth – Awakening to your
Life’s Purpose” in which he explains the importance of being in the present. Oprah did a 10 week video class, going
through one chapter a week with Tolle which was a fascinating experience. The audios/videos are still available

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
This is acupuncture without needles. You just tap about 8-10 meridian points with
your fingers, takes about 3 minutes a round.
Emotional Freedom Technologies (EFT) was founded by an Engineer named Gary Craig in
1995 and practitioners have developed it in many ways since. All the information is on this
site http://www.emofree.com/
Watch the introductory video on the home page which explains what EFT is. You can
access the other videos (mostly case studies) after the introductory one is complete.
Gary Craig retired earlier this year and for legal reasons he had to close his
original Website which was packed with information. I haven’t had time to check the new Site but a quick look
indicates that the free instruction manual is still available. The manual gives you all the information you need.
Practitioners have developed their own protocol which are easier and just as effective ... for instance, apparently
you don't need to use all the tapping points listed in the Manual ... they often skip the points on the fingers,
the "9 Gamut Sequence", etc. and although some add the top of the head, the timing is reduced even more. However,
they all suggest that you learn the whole thing first, just so you know.
Navigate to Forums > Resources and select EFT at Work from the drop-down menu
and you fill find 100s of case histories from users. Many of these have the tapping phrases as well.
Under Resources you will also find all the tutorials, and freebies like The Palace
of Possibilities which is a good resource.
Some other EFT Sites
http://www.tapping.com
There are videos on this site which demonstrate exactly how the tapping is done for
some common issues and all you have to do it follow him. Like attending a class. At least it clears up a few
questions about tapping points, techniques etc. Look under Free Videos for a list all the videos
available.
Another version of tapping by Dr Mercola is at this link
http://www.mercola.com/forms/eftcourse1.htm
He uses both hands. You don't have to. One hand, any side, you can change hands and
it doesn't matter if you change the sequence.
In this YouTube video, Pamela Bruner shows you another way

This site has sample scripts for tapping out various conditions. Also has
information about other modalities like ZPoint, TAT etc.

There is so much information available that it is impossible to list them all.
Just Google EFT and you’ll see what I mean.

Karl Dawson
Sasha Allenby
The list goes on. Many practitioners have diverted and gone to using EFT for
making money so I have only listed those who still focus on health and wellbeing. There are many more in this area
so do search.
Karl Dawson developed Matrix Reimprinting and co-authored the book by the same
name with Sasha Allenby.
