The Science behind Tapping
EFT Tapping draws many of its principles from the ancient healing
lineage of Traditional Chinese medicine.
While modern society is just developing an appreciation for Chinese
medicine's long, rich history of success, there still remains a
desire to back it up with science.
It's for this reason emerging research about EFT Tapping's effectiveness
is so very important. Not only does it gradually silence
more and more of EFT's skeptics, it also deepens our understanding
of the technique, allowing us to further harness its deep healing abilities.
So far, modern science's investigations into just why EFT works have been astounding. The
results revealed why EFT Tapping is the perfect bridge between cutting edge Western
medicine and ancient healing practices from the East.
Harvard Medical Schools Studies and the Brain's Stress Response
For example, studies at Harvard Medical School have revealed that by stimulating the
body's meridian points - the same spots on your body that are manipulated by acupuncturists
- you can significantly reduce activity in a part of your brain called the amygdala.
Think of your amygdala as a personal alarm system. When you experience trauma or fear,
the amygdala is trigghat's an illness, injury, or even an external problem such as your finances
or a relationship.
These studies come, we'll also be providing you with a great deal
more information on the exciting new research that's emerging. As
these studies come to the forefront, it will become apparent to any
remaining doubters that EFT Tapping not only works, but also that it
is in fact on the very cusp of the future of healing.
The Incredible Research on EFT Tapping
It's an exciting time to be working with EFT. Although the technique
is almost 20 years old now, we're beginning to see more and more
research that explains just why it's so effective. It's important not
just for our own understanding, but also for those who are doubtful
about the efficacy of this amazing technique.
As with many other healing modalities that draw on ancient wisdom and/or cutting edge
insights into mind and body health, EFT has been overlooked
and even ridiculed by many in the world of modern
Western medicine. To them, it's a sham that's simply
too good to be true. Even thousands of stories from
people around the world about just how tapping has
changed their lives have not been enough to prompt the
skeptics to reconsider.
That's why this research is so very important.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of becoming colleagues
and even friends with many practitioners, scholars
and researchers who are at the forefront of energy medicine. Their research stands as
increasingly solid proof that EFT works (and not just because of a placebo effect.) I continue
to be inspired and astounded by how thorough and revelatory this research has become
in furthering our understanding of just how our minds and bodies work.
