What Is EFT Tapping and How Does It Work?
EFT tapping is a simple mind-body method that combines focused attention with gentle tapping on specific points of the body. People often use it to reduce stress, calm emotional intensity, and create a greater sense of internal ease.
There are some tools that sound almost too simple to matter — and yet people return to them because they work in a surprisingly direct way. EFT, or Emotional Freedom Techniques, is one of those tools. At first glance, it looks a little unusual: you focus on a problem, emotion, memory, or fear while lightly tapping on a series of points on the face and upper body. But for many people, that combination is what makes the practice so effective.
