EFT Tapping Points, why do we use these points?
How do they affect our emotions?
There are many points in the body that we could use, but after considerable experimenting and experience, the points we use today were chosen by founder Gary Craig for the best results and ease of use.
The diagram below shows the only points we really need to use for fast effective results.
The Hand Point
1. KC ~ Karate Chop Point – The Karate Chop point is used for our EFT healing setup statement, we acknowledge our problem and tell our subconscious mind that we are ok with it and we are working on it.
The karate chop point is located on the soft fleshy part on the outer side of the hand, between the base of the little finger and the wrist. It helps us to release the block we feel that holds us back and is resistant to change, by tapping this point we become unstuck and able to move forward again.
While tapping this point, we say something like ” although I know I have this problem, (name the problem) I deeply love and accept myself. We repeat three times.
2. TH ~ Top of Head Point – This point is located at the top of the head, the crown, it is a powerful point, our crown chakra or spiritual centre, the meeting point of all our energy meridians. Stimulating this area wakes up the entire energy system in the body allowing us to make big shifts. Be gentle with this point.
Releases: That annoying inner negative voice, the self doubt. It brings Spiritual connection, our truth, insight, intuition, focus, wisdom and clarity.
3. EB ~ Eyebrow Point – This point is located at the inner corner of the eyebrow (the little dent between the bridge of the nose and the beginning of the eyebrow)
Releases: Trauma, hurt, sadness, (past and present) frustration, impatience, restlessness and fear. Bringing us Peace and emotional healing.
4. SE ~ Side of Eye Point – Located on the outside edge of the eye.
Releases: Rage, anger, resentment, fear of change and confused thinking. Bringing us Clarity and compassion.
5. UE ~ Under Eye Point – Located on the bone underneath the eye, directly under the pupil.
Releases: Fear, anxiety, feelings of emptiness, worry, nervousness and disappointment. Bringing us Contentment, calmness, and a feeling of being safe.
6. UN ~ Under Nose Point – Located under the nose, between the top lip and the nose.
Releases: Feelings of being powerless, shame, feelings of guilt and grief, fear of ridicule and fear of failure . Bringing us Self-acceptance, self-empowerment, and compassion for the our self and others.
7. CH ~ Chin Point – Located just under the bottom lip, in the depression between the lower lip and the chin.
Releases: Feelings of confusion, uncertainty and shame. Bringing us Clarity, certainty, confidence, and self-acceptance.
8. CB ~ Collar Bone Point – Just below the inner edge of the collarbone.
Releases: Feelings of being stuck, indecision, worry, and stress. Bringing us ease in moving forward, confidence, and clarity. Tapping on this point balances our adrenal gland function, bringing us hormonal balance!
9. UA ~ Under Arm Point – About six inches directly below the arm pit (on the bra strap for the women)
Releases: Guilt, worry, obsessing, hopelessness, insecurity, and low self esteem. Bringing us Clarity, confidence, relaxation, and compassion for self and others.
