A relatively new therapy, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique has been used successfully by thousands of people for Managing Panic Attacks. Other alternative Cures for panic attacks include, hypnotherapy, reflexology and NLP.

The Emotional Freedom Technique is very similar to other meridian therapies such as Acupuncture. Commonly used in the practice of Chinese medicine, acupuncture uses long needles which are inserted lightly at precise points on the body to unblock disrupted energy flow in the meridian system.

EFT works in the same way by balancing your energy flow and disruptions. Because EFT works directly on meridian points on the body, a person can often experience immediate positive effects physically and emotionally. Unlike Acupuncture, EFT uses the fingertips to stimulate the meridian points by tapping on them.

The mind and body is one energy system, one affects the other directly, like a stressful day which turns into a headache or backache, your mind affects the body and vice versa. Stress can be felt emotionally and physically, and can be seen as a disturbance of energy flow in the body. As they build up, more stress hormones are released triggering Panic Symptoms.

Starting EFT immediately targets the build ups and disruptions in the body, relieving both the physical and emotional sensations of stress and anxiety. The tapping of the meridian points is combined with the use of affirmations during practice. Since EFT deals with underlying cause; both the emotional pain and the energy system simultaneously, anxiety which can often feed itself, can be stopped in it’s tracks.

EFT has been used all over the world successfully time and time again. EFT isn’t just effective at emotional issues and managing panic attacks. It’s also effective at dealing with physical pain. Knowing a little about the meridian energy system is useful but it’s not essential since EFT is very easy to apply. Lots of information is out there teaching you exactly how to use the technique.

Apart from the actual tapping itself, it’s important that the core problem is recognized and worked on. Before starting the sequence it’s a good idea to write down the problem that you want to address. It is important to use self accepting and positive language when using affirmations. A healthy love and respect for oneself is healthy for the mind and body to grow and develop positively.

EFT doesn’t require any tools but your fingertips and can be applied at anytime, making it convenient for managing panic attacks that occur out of the blue. You will find that by using the technique to manage negative emotions and symptoms that your stress and anxiety will dramatically reduce. Affirmations can be changed to suit the problem that you are trying to address. If you feel embarrassed tapping in public, try massaging the meridian points with your finger tips or doing it in private.

EFT doesn’t promise 100% success rate, but it’s important to apply it regularly to see significant results. You have to remember that emotional issues can run deep, which means that EFT can sometimes take more than a few times to work. Once you see the benefits, you can also apply it to other areas of your life. Regular practice will gradually improve the energy flow in the body.
