"Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) A s the industry and banking technology have progressed, the concept of eft was born which gave clubs a new opportunity for guaranteed revolving revenue. These dues are the foundation for any successful club business because it is free cash flow. I say it is free because it is the one revenue stream from membership sales on which clubs do not pay a commission to their sales staff. Salespeople are paid when they enroll new members, not when they pay their monthly dues." - Craig Pepin-Donat, The Big Fat Health and Fitness Lie (Get the book.)

What I do know is that it has dramatic results for many people." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)

"With these precautions in mind though, eft and other Energy Psychology techniques are largely both safe and effective. But do we truly understand exactly how and why these bizarre tapping exercises work? In short, the most honest answer is 'not really'. However, as these exercises are performed on recognized points of energy exchange on Chinese meridians, it seems reasonable to start looking for clues within the ancient texts of Chinese medicine. So far, eft and other Energy Psychology practices have been mainly used to help clear the body of anxieties and phobias." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.)

"A PSYCH-K or eft session—safe, noninvasive, and usually effective—is a much more compelling first line of treatment than conventional medical therapies for most conditions. It shifts our maladaptive beliefs and irrational fears, rather than suppressing them with prescription drugs. Precise Energy Leverage Points The energy diagnosis of the future might be focused on discovering the precise leverage point required to produce healing. Imagine a logjam on a river, hundreds of logs piled up producing a blockage through which nothing can pass." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)

"There is nothing wrong with paying for your membership dues automatically with EFT; just make sure you are checking your monthly statements. Trust me when I say mistakes happen with electronic drafts and member accounts can be double billed, or over billed, and cancelled memberships can sometimes continue to be billed. If you do not take the time to check your own bank or credit card statements to make sure they are correct, I can assure that the club will not contact you with a refund notification. No Monthly, No Contract: No Way!" - Craig Pepin-Donat, The Big Fat Health and Fitness Lie (Get the book.)

"EFT could assist people with phobias. The subjects of the study had all been clinically diagnosed as having a phobia to small animals such as spiders, snakes, bats, and mice. The study used several different measures of the strength of the participants' phobia before and after the study They measured their pulses, to see the extent by which they rose when contemplating the object of their fear. They measured the number of steps toward the feared animal a participant could take." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)

"While many processes are zealously guarded and tightly controlled, eft even promotes its "cousins" on its website. There are workshops but the primary method of training is by home-study video. The basic DVD course costs $60 and there are 8 different training series available. The process is also supported by a dynamic community networked by e-mailed newsletters with testimonials and advice every few days along with media promotion to help develop consumer awareness and acceptance." - Alan E.

As all chronic diseases have a mixture of physical, emotional, and spiritual causes, skill is needed in overseeing someone as layer after layer of conditioned thoughts, fears, and worries are peeled back. The whole process of deep healing commonly leaves the healee feeling, at times, vulnerable and emotionally exposed." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.) "So far, eft and other Energy Psychology practices have been mainly used to help clear the body of anxieties and phobias. The organ system in Chinese medicine that relates to fear and sensitivity is the kidney. Unlike our largely physical focus in Western medicine, the Chinese kidney is an energetic system incorporating, body, mind, and spiritual dimensions. The Chinese kidney system is also not simply confined anatomically to the paired physical organs of the kidney we know in Western conventional medicine." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.)

"WHEE stands for Wholistic Hybrid of EMDR and eft. It was developed by Daniel J. Benor, M.D. to work more quickly than the more proven EMDR technique. He began using the technique with children because managed care allowed a few precious minutes extra and he's expanded the success for use with parents at the same sessions. Today it can also be a self-help technique. He's continued to evolve the process by using abbreviated acupressure points found in Matrix Therapy. See www.WholisticHealingResearch.com USER COMMENTS: "WHEE has been working very well for my fear of riding in a car." - Alan E. Smith, UnBreak Your Health: The Complete Guide to Complementary & Alternative Therapies (Get the book.) "In many cases eft is actually recommended for those individuals interested in self-help. This is a powerful therapeutic technique like TIR or EMDR which can uncover very traumatic experiences which is why it should only be used under the guidance of a licensed and experienced therapist. Typical sessions run 30-40 minutes. In general terms the process deals with the concept that we disassociate from traumatic events, they're like watching the news on TV. While this is a natural protection mechanism it leaves us with the feelings to deal with that can trigger problems in the present." - Alan E. Smith, UnBreak Your Health: The Complete Guide to Complementary & Alternative Therapies (Get the book.) "THM) was developed by Marilyn Gordon, BCH, CI as a synthesis of hypnotherapy and eft.

I have had clients tell me that I 'saved their life,' and it was because of this method." - Alan E.

"Not only were the results of eft dramatic at the time, but in a follow up study done six months later, the subjects still had a much lower rate of phobic reaction to the objects of their fear.3 Steve Wells recounts the following story: One of the ladies in the study was so afraid of mice that if she saw a mouse or rat, or even thought there was a mouse in the house, she would spend the night sleeping in her car! Needless to say, during pre-testing, she was unable to even enter the room with the mouse. After treatment, she was able to go right up to the mouse in the container without fear." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)
