Learn an easy tool you can use to help leave the past in the past.

How it Works

You can follow along with the video and do the EFT basic recipe, tapping on the side of your hand, then the top of your head, inside eyebrows, corner of the eyes, under the eyes, under the nose, under the mouth, under the collarbones, and under the arms.

Why It Works

Being upset causes a disruption in the flow of energy through your meridians. Easy TFT helps your energy flow again by clearing blocks along your meridians. This allows you to reduce stress quickly and easily. This allows you to reduce or even eliminate the troubling feelings that often accompany old memories.

If you haven’t given Simple EFT a try yet, do it now. Take notice of how your body feels both before and after you use the technique. This technique is just one of many you can use to resolve the feelings from memories and leave the past in the past.
