Can we tap for positive affirmations?
Can you tap with regular positive affirmations without saying anything negative first? For instance, you tap the points while saying something positive? Do we really need to release the negative first? Sure, you can tap on just the positive, in whatever kind of affirmation you want to use. Just one thing to watch: Affirmations often…

What is the order of points for the short form of EFT?
I’ve seen the EFT shortcut procedure with and without the top of the head point, and I’ve seen people start with the top of the head or the eyebrow point. Does it matter? Short answer: It doesn’t matter. I typically start at the top of the head, go to eyebrow, down the body, then back…

How important is strength and accuracy in tapping?
How important is the strength and accuracy of the tapping ? Would there be any increased benefit tapping with greater intensity ? First, accuracy.

What is the difference between acupuncture and EFT?
These are some of the many reasons why EFT is gaining acceptance. I have great respect for acupuncturists. They often achieve results when western medical approaches fail. The art of acupuncture is far too complex to convey in this short answer. Certainly, there is no reason EFT and acupuncture cannot be combined effectively. Some acupuncturists…

Are you saying, “It is all in my head?”
Too many people with painful conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and even PMS have heard or felt accused by their medical doctors that their pain isn’t “real,” that maybe they are faking it, or that it is figment of their imagination. This is both disrespectful and scientifically ignorant. Just because the root cause of…
