Emotional Freedom Techniques: Your Path to Conquering Anxiety and Childhood Trauma (2)
Manage episode 476474415 series 3652432
Discovering freedom from anxiety and repetitive thought patterns is possible—and it might be simpler than you think. After decades of feeling trapped by childhood trauma and overwhelming worry that sometimes made me physically ill, I found liberation through Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). This powerful yet accessible practice transformed my relationship with anxiety and helped me heal deep-seated emotional wounds.
EFT involves gently tapping on specific meridian points while acknowledging difficult emotions and practicing radical self-acceptance. The technique works like psychological acupressure, creating profound shifts in our nervous system and emotional state. "Even though I feel overwhelmed, I deeply and completely love and accept myself" becomes a mantra that breaks the cycle of emotional suffering. Scientific research supports what practitioners have known for years—EFT effectively lowers cortisol levels and offers genuine relief from emotional and physical pain.
What makes this practice truly revolutionary is how it brings us into the present moment. Before discovering EFT in 2009, I spent countless hours ruminating on the past and projecting fears onto the future. Now, I've developed the ability to identify emotions as they arise, take ownership of them, and release their hold on me. This isn't about suppressing feelings or pretending everything is fine—it's about tapping into our emotion
