From the Publisher

When we set out to do this book, we asked the big question. What if we could help teach people the principles of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) by pulling together some of the very best EFT teachers and practitioners in the world? Further, what if we could do a book that made it quick and easy for people to find answers to their questions about EFT? "Freedom at Your Fingertips," is the product of these ideas.

From the Inside Flap

The preeminent scientist, Albert Einstein, named as Time Magazine's Person of the Century, said that everything, including our bodies, is composed of energy. The purpose of this book is to introduce you to one of the most simple, elegant and powerful self-help tools that you may ever come across to change your energy. It's called EFT which is short for Emotional Freedom Techniques.

EFT is based on leveraging the wisdom and healing of using energy meridians which have been around for thousands of years. EFT and other healing modalities delve into the realms of energy psychology and energy medicine. Unresolved negative emotions are often the cause behind many mental and physical issues.

With EFT, by simply tapping with your fingertips on certain points on your face and body, while you concentrate on whatever bothers you, EFT helps clear the energy blocks of negative, uncomfortable emotions. Using EFT, typically a problem or condition is gone or greatly diminished in just a matter of minutes. In fact, people are usually amazed. They're surprised to find that EFT often works when nothing else seems to help.

"Freedom at Your Fingertips" is loaded with a wealth of ideas and information you can put to practical use in all areas of your life immediately. This book is a questions and answers guidebook to refer to often. It's a self-help toolkit that you can use whenever you want to feel better or go beyond what limits you. Welcome to the exciting, extraordinary world of EFT.

This review is from: Freedom at Your Fingertips: Get Rapid Physical and Emotional Relief with the Breakthrough System of Tapping (Paperback)

When I first found EFT, I ordered several books and sets of DVD's on the subject. While watching a DVD has obvious advantages over reading a book, I have to say that I found this book almost more helpful than the DVD's and it is definitely the most useful of all the books I bought.

It's very readable. There is a great variety of styles presented...from a charming fellow who once studied to be a clown to more serious academics with lots of initials after their names. One of the nice things about EFT is that it is so adaptable to different personalities and uses. Some people have a definite spiritual bent, for example. Others have different perspectives. Here you get to see how 20 people use it in a vast number of different ways, which gives you the freedom to find your own way of using it.

Each presenter writes a short chapter focusing on a particular subject, eg. pain management, sports performance, weight loss, procrastination, etc. There is something here for everyone. Each expert gives examples of how EFT has been used successfully for that problem and offers abundant suggestions for EFT set-up phrases.

It's possible for a beginner to pick up the book and start using EFT almost immediately. And yet it has enough solid information to be used as a reference for an experienced EFT professional for a long time. I've referred to it over and over and have given it to clients.

There's a nice, friendly tone to the book, too, which I appreciate. It doesn't try to impress you with a lot of difficult methodology. It doesn't leave you overwhelmed with information that you feel you'll never assimilate. It doesn't make you feel that you have to spend large sums of money to study further with the writers or consult with them personally, although some of them do offer these options.

This review is from: Freedom at Your Fingertips: Get Rapid Physical and Emotional Relief with the Breakthrough System of Tapping (Paperback)

This is a fabulous book! Freedom At Your Fingertips is a treasure chest filled with quick, painless formulas to help clear away emotional issues and physical ailments. That may sound very simplistic, but EFT is so effective that it almost sounds too good to be true. Well it is good, and it is true, and it really works!

I chose to read the book from cover to cover even though it is designed as a reference book, and found it to be a fascinating discovery journey. I looked into EFT a while ago, (created by Gary Craig, engineer and Master NLP Practitioner) and found it to be very quick and easy to learn to use. I now use EFT regularly for different themes in my life. Some physical pain that I had for a long time just vanished. Some emotional issues also went away. Some of the changes are so subtle that they are almost indetectable, but there is this good "something different" quality present.

It is important to remember to take SUDS ('subjective units of distress scale' from 0 to 10 of the issue being addressed) before tapping so as to be able to really note the shift in energy that takes place.

Freedom At Your Fingertips covers many different subjects by twenty different experts in this Energy Psychology. There is enough material in the book to keep any keen EFT enthusiast busy for a long time. I have also myself been able to help other people with both physical and emotional issues already with EFT. Within these techniques there is a very strong spiritual componant present.

It is one of the most powerful healing modalities I have come across to this day, and I have learned many different healing techniques as I am a qualified healing practitioner. The more people who learn EFT and use it, the more we can affect the quantum field and contribute to the healing of our planet. EFT really works! Do yourself a favour and don't hesitate for one more moment in buying this book. What have you got to lose?

5.0 out of 5 stars Tap Your Troubles Goodbye with EFT, October 14, 2006

This review is from: Freedom at Your Fingertips: Get Rapid Physical and Emotional Relief with the Breakthrough System of Tapping (Paperback)

This isn't your ordinary book that you read from front to back. It is a reference for learning Emotional Freedom Technique. A broad range of how we can apply EFT in our own lives is available from the examples provided by experts.

A page in the first chapter shows all the tapping points. These points are easily learned and are the same no matter what the problem is, whether it is physical pain or emotional pain. All you have to do is focus on the feeling that problem gives you, (anger, sadness, physical pain, worry, etc.,) and do the tapping sequence. It is not magic, it is similar to acupuncture in that acupressure points are used. However, it isn't necessary to have any knowledge of acupressure. I taught EFT to a six year old and she has used it successfully on several occasions. It is like straightening out the kink in your garden hose. When the garden hose is blocked, no water flows, you release the kink and water flows easily. EFT releases the kinks in our energy system and the pain is released. I've been using EFT with great success for over four years.

The developer of EFT, Gary Craig, put his free manual on the internet a little over ten years ago. Since then hundreds of thousands people have downloaded his manual. Craig's web site is [...].

While there are dozens of books written by Gary's students about this amazing work, this is one I highly recommend. Twenty experts have shared their experiences with using Emotional Freedom Techniques. You can go to [...] get a thumbnail sketch of the authors and their tips on how to use EFT.

Any new idea takes a while to catch on. Only about 16 % of the population are willing to try something new. Although EFT is based on acupressure points, which have been used for thousands of years in the Eastern world, it is not as widely known in our Western world. Here is a method that can banish pain and other negative feelings. It is easily learned and applied with the fingertips. You always have your fingertips with you.

Could it get any easier? Be an adventurer. Be one of the 16%.
