Through the application of a recent discovery in the field of ‘energy therapy’, overweight people can use a simple method of acupressure ‘tapping’, applied ‘on the spot’, which seems to stop emotional overeating altogether. quickly and painlessly, without the use of any medication.

This exciting and unique approach to weight loss has been developed by three recognized leaders in the field of Energy Psychology, Dr. Carol Look, Dr. Patricia Carrington, and Dr. Sandra Radomski.

It makes use of the most powerful tool for sticking to a weight loss program yet devised: a “psychological acupressure” technique known as “EFT” (short for Emotional Freedom Techniques).

Doctors Look, Carrington, and Radomski realized that in addressing the problem of emotionally based binge eating, previous approaches consistently failed. Unless and until people change their eating habits, they will continue to fail whatever diet they try. The application of EFT techniques to emotion-based overeating habits provides the foundation for this latest breakthrough.

What is EFT?

It is a new and honored branch of Energy Psychology.
EFT has been shown to be clinically effective in thousands of cases of stress, trauma, anxiety, pain, and many other health related conditions.

EFT has received a lot of attention in the press lately: it has been shown on TV’s Discovery Channel, discussed on CNN, and recently featured as a cover story in Women’s World magazine.

How does EFT work?

Now anyone can learn to change their eating habits in no time, using EFT. Whether with an experienced practitioner, or even with their own application, EFT users can make great strides toward their goal.

EFT actively reprograms the mind and nervous system to adopt a completely different attitude towards food. ‘Reprogramming’ of the mind is necessary for successful weight loss because a negative emotion, or series of negative emotions, acts as a blockage to the flow of life force along the meridians or energy pathways within the human body . This is where the concept of emotionally based overeating comes into play. EFT works to remove these emotional blocks, allowing people to regain their emotional balance and return to healthier weight and eating patterns.

When patients touch certain acupressure points and say selected key phrases, this apparently dissolves the blocking emotion. It’s not unlike pressing the “Delete” key on a computer.

It now appears that with EFT it is possible to “reset” and self-install the positive emotions and beliefs that people truly want and deserve, and these will be ideas and phrases that naturally support weight loss as well as a more balanced emotional state. condition.

It’s widely accepted that people can’t lose weight without changing their habits, and until that’s done, people will continue to fail whatever diet they try. But what the research and findings show is that:

When EFT users install new positive attitudes and beliefs, this permanently changes eating habits. No more self-sabotage or wild cravings… people can smoothly progress towards their weight loss goal.

And EFT is credited for doing even more… While using EFT for weight loss, proponents can change their self-image from negative to positive.

Interestingly, weight loss often occurs without conscious effort when using this simple process. By addressing the emotional causes of overeating, weight loss appears to occur as a “side effect” of addressing the underlying cause of the unhealthy behavior.

Does EFT help everyone lose weight?

No, because weight loss is a complex matter. The Key to Weight Loss is designed specifically for those experiencing compulsive eating due to negative emotions, whether acknowledged or not.

Those with metabolic, endocrine, allergic, or other physiological conditions that can interfere with weight loss should seek solutions in these areas first.

People with serious eating disorders, such as bulimia or anorexia, can benefit from the EFT program. In these cases it is best to apply it under the guidance of a health professional trained in EFT.
