Donna Bach and fellow researchers published a paper in 2019 in the Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine called “Clinical EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Improves Multiple Physiological Markers of Health.” In this paper, they share evidence that the Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT, may help reduce depression and anxiety and increase feelings of well-being.
In their experiment, they asked 203 study subjects to complete a battery of psychological tests before and after an EFT intervention to see what, if any, effect the intervention had. They also followed up on their results one year later. The findings were impressive: There was an increase in happiness by thirty-one percent, a reduction of depression by thirty-five percent, and a reduction in anxiety by forty percent. The team even noted some physiological improvements in things like blood pressure and cortisol levels—and the effects did appear stable after one year.
So, what is EFT, anyway? Gary Craig is credited as the founder of this modality, which is a kind of “energy psychology” based on the principle that thoughts and feelings are actually forms of “energy.” Granted, this approach is not mainstream, and the research supporting it (over one hundred studies to date) is not perfect, but EFT is growing in popularity because people are interested in more straightforward, natural ways to improve their well-being.
In particular, the technique of EFT “tapping” has been acclaimed as a way to address a wide range of issues, from addiction to mood disorders to phobias. The great thing about EFT tapping is that you can practice the technique yourself with only a little training. The technique is something to use specifically when you’re feeling stressed or if you encounter a particular psychological challenge. People have claimed to use EFT tapping before stressful or difficult events, for example.
Here are five simple steps to try EFT tapping for yourself.
