How to Use EFT to Easily Let Go of Negative Beliefs and Feelings

EFT helps you dive into the sea of well-being.

In this post, I’ll talk about EFT which is a very powerful, rapid, and gentle way to let go of negative beliefs, particularly those that we find difficult to let go of otherwise. 

EFT: The Turbo Belief Changer

To use EFT, all you have to do is tap on nine different acupressure points on your face and body as you think about whatever negative beliefs you’re having and the painful feelings they are triggering in you.  (If you not familiar with EFT, here’s a link to a video post that tells you all about it: So What Is EFT Anyway). 

So let’s say you are feeling anxiety because a project you’re working on isn’t turning out perfectly.  You would just tap on This anxiety that this isn’t working out the way I want it to.  You could also tap on This anxiety from thinking that what I am doing has to be perfect right now.  Phrase it in a way that resonates for you; that’s the key.  You can follow along with my How to Do EFT video to clear these issues if you like. 

As you tap on this issue round after round and ideally get your experience down to a one or zero, you will feel your natural state of unconditional well-being surfacing again.  It is always there, just beneath the stormy surface of the negative ideas and corresponding feelings of your mind. 

The Sea of Consciousness: EFT Helps You Go Deeper

Our consciousness is like the ocean.  The mind is like the surface of the ocean.  The surface can have wild storms on it, 50 foot high waves, tsunamis, or it can be relatively calm and peaceful, with just gentle waves rolling on the surface.  But when you go deeper, when you go below the surface, there is a deep calm that is ever-present, and so much more vast than the surface of the ocean.

When you tap on an issue with EFT, you calm the waves of an intense feeling and when you clear it completely, your mind quiets and you sink down below the surface into the vast, beautiful experience of the presence of who you really are.  You reach the place of unconditional well-being within you.

The more we do this, the less we identify with the surface turbulence of our minds.  We know that negative feelings are a result of negative thoughts generated by our minds and that we are so much more than that.

I’ll talk more about connecting with this unconditional source of well-being within us in future posts.  It’s one of my favorite things to share.  I think it is the key to everything.  Next time, I’ll talk more about how to use EFT to let go of procrastination, perfectionism, fear of failure, and the need for love and approval from others.
