I still haven't really put much into trying it to see if it works, and haven't really had something to try it on. Most emotional situations would probably resolve in the time it takes to do all the tapping anyway. And it isn't going to fix bad habits and relationship problems and situations that require actually changing behaviors. I have a headache right now from being tired, and brain overload (trying to get all my paperwork caught up again), and I hesitate to try EFT for that because it feels like it would just make the headache worse, and if it didn't, it would probably put me to sleep. So I still don't know, and I appreciate the comments. Anyone want to share what they have used EFT for?
I use it when I am upset about something like being worried about something or angry. I believe it works and I don't think it is just the placebo effect. In fact I remember reading about one study where they disproved the placebo effect. I read The Promise of Energy Psychology and read about the mechanism that the author states is at work with the tapping on the acupressure points. There have been studies sited and the book even has before and after fMRI pictures inside the back cover.
There is a relatively recent DVD out entitled Try It On Everything. Here is its webpage. Hope this helps. ~ Shoe
