Curing Addiction with Emotional Freedom Technique

Have you ever considered EFT as a treatment for your addiction?

EFT, or emotional freedom tecnique is an energy therapy which claims our bodies contain invisible energy pathways – meridians – and identified hundreds of
acupoints at junctions along these interconnecting highways. They can be disrupted by life's vicissitudes; in extreme cases, resulting in not only mental but also physical problems.
EFT works by a person tapping on just nine of these acupoints, while speaking aloud. And this is where it becomes a little
weird. Working in pairs we identify a minor physical ailment and repeat the phrase, "Even though I have this sore knee /headache / lack of energy, I deeply and completely accept myself," while tapping on the meridian points: the soft part of the hand beneath the little finger, crown of the head, around the eyes, beneath the nose, the chin, near the clavicle and beneath the armpit.

For addiction, we become addicted in an effort to sedate unwanted feelings and then a whole series of feelings are created around this effort to avoid the original feeling. We will need to employ EFT for:

1. The desire for the substance.
2. The symptoms and feelings of withdrawal.
3. The emotions we have about not having our dose.
4. The feelings we have about the fact that we are addicted.
5. The feelings which we are trying to cover with these substances.
