EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) was originally designed to reduce the psychotherapy process
from months and years down to minutes and hours. From there it was discovered that astonishing physical healing also occurred.
Symptoms faded for everything from Migraine Headaches to Cancer. Complete details are given on the EFT website.
Often the real cause of emotional eating is not the desire for food, it is the need
for some feeling that you are using food to fill. It may be loneliness, anger, depression, boredom or a number of other
issues, Food will only give a temporary "fix". Until you find and release that emotional need, the uncontrolled
desire for food just keeps coming back again and again.
EFT
has become one of my favorite tools for releasing the emotional ties to food and over eating. The largest section of
the Emotional Diet manual is devoted to EFT. I have included the exact phrasing that has been so successful in releasing
the various emotional needs for food.
