Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Through The Chakras (Self Healing Series) Paperback – January 2, 2014

As a Healing Touch energy worker, I work a lot with the chakras and human energy field. I also have been getting into EFT tapping lately. So I was very interested when I saw this book incorporating both tapping AND the chakras! It is a thin book, not a lot to it, but the content is powerful nonetheless. It is straightforward and easy to follow even if you don't have the skills of a energy practitioner and you don't need to be versed in EFT tapping either. I followed the suggestion to just tap on one chakra every 24 hours, and let it "integrate." (Energy keeps working for a day or more after you've started balancing it.) I started with the root chakra. I didn't feel particularly different that evening, but by afternoon of the next day I felt much more "grounded" and calm, like I had meditated that day which I hadn't. I felt secure, which is inherent quality of a balanced root chakra. This is a good tool for those of us who don't always make time to meditate, or for those who find it difficult to quiet the mind and relax.

I've been using EFT for a few weeks before I decided to buy this book. To make a long story short I had my thyroid removed a few years ago which was a great decision. Unfortunately, thyroid tissue is growing back and I'm back to having the symptoms I had before. I won't go into details but there is a choking sensation that happens. Last night was pretty bad and it was making it difficult to talk. I read through the book quickly and decided to focus on the throat chakra. This morning, the choking sensation is gone and I have a calm feeling about the situation. My theory is like others that the body can heal itself and if tissue can grow why can't it shrink. I think we have to learn to combine western medicine with energy healing. I plan to stick with this approach and I am hopeful that at my next appointment, I will be better than ever.

Very easy to read, apply the techniques explained in the book. There are a few typos, and some misprints for e.g.. the section in the book that describes the summery of 'throat chakra' actually duplicate summery from the heart chakra, leading to no summery for the throat chakra. I hope the author and publisher fix this small issue in the next edition of the publication. Over all I love the book and I recommend it to anyone wanting to make visible difference in their lives.

It's not that this is the best book I've read... This is the most down to earth book I've read yet that was quick and to the point. I kept putting off reading this until I decided I really needed to work on my chakras. Tonight's my second night exercising using this.. The first night, the change came gradually. My third eye is my most active chakra and sometimes it's to the point where I can really feel the pressure on my forhead, etc. Right after tapping my base chakra, that pressure felt more comfortable and the energy that I could feel in my body felt more calm. Starting off at my base chakra really grounded me but I know I have some more clearing to do before I can completely feel grounded. So I'm taking this a day at a time. I'll update this as I go.

I should have looked at the page count, but I got excited at the title. I'm working more on integrating reiki and eft, so Chakra eft sounded perfect.I was expecting an eft scripting book. Multiple issues or triggers that could be for each Chakra. This is a common format for eft books.This is NOT that. It does have scripts. Exactly one setup and one reframe for each Chakra and that's it.Also, without any scale testing prior to scripts there no way to mark progress. Finding a scale that works for you and your clients is key to effective eft. That goes for self guided eft as well.So this is a disappointment but it gives me a direction to look further into.Moral of the story always check page counts before buying, especially for educational books!

I have been practicing the EFT for two years now and it has greatly improved my sense of well being as well as emotional issues I was struggling with. I was glad I found this book, as it connects chakra balancing with EFT.EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is tapping acupuncture points on the body that will effectively make you feel better emotionally, physically, and spiritually. The methods are simple and quick to do, and can help with a plethora of problems, including emotional & physical blocks, headaches, anxiety, insomnia and phobias.Michael Hetherington has a lovely writing style. He is very straightforward and compassionate. This is a great book for beginners who want to learn EFT, as well as healing practitioners who want to enhance the healing process for their clients.

I almost didn’t buy it, as it was only 71 pages. I prefer more for my money as a general rule, but glad I took the recommendation of my counselor and bought it. I will be using this as part of my self care practice!

Made me think about my EF. I have to really work on my self. Just hard to deal with the shift of the E to get to the F.
