When searching for the right words to sum up a quality practitioner like Brad Yates, I felt that Josh Hinds said it best.  Brad truly is on the cutting edge of healing the mind, body and spirit.  I find his rendering of EFT to be the most useful and thorough technique available.  I am putting the spotlight on eTappings because I think these tools are an awesome way to get started with EFT.  Brad also has an eBook entitled "The Key To Success".  You can click on the link at the bottom of the page to learn more.

EFT eTappings

Probably one of the most common concerns that come along with the initial efforts to use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is “getting it right”.  Although EFT is a simple but powerful procedure that anyone can perform on himself or herself, many people find it difficult to get started.    They may struggle with what to say, what kind of set-up phrase to use.  Others worry that they are tapping on the wrong points, or tapping to quickly or slowly. This is where Brad Yates’ eTappings become an invaluable tool for newcomers to EFT.   

Brad’s eTapping sessions have two components.  First there are rounds for clearing the negative feelings, and then a second segment with rounds for enhancing positive feelings and emotions around the subject you are tapping on.  My first experience with tapping actually came about by listening to a teleconference hosted by Brad and Bob Doyle on “The Dark Side of the Law of Attraction”.  Brad actually walks you through 3 different tapping sessions for clearing the bad feelings that keep us from attracting good things into our lives.   One of the things that I discovered, which Bob and Brad both say all the time, is that it is best to tap along even if you don’t think the topic applies to you. 

	There are quite a few topics that Brad has pre-recorded eTappings to guide you through the process.  Some examples are:
	Feeling unworthy/I am worthy and deserving
	Stress/I feel calm
	Anger/Forgiveness
	Food craving/I choose to be healthy
	Loneliness/I feel joyfully connected
	Fear of flying/Flying comfort
	Fear of failure/Feeling confident
	Money is bad/Allowing abundance
	Fear of public speaking/Speaking confidence
	Insomnia/Sleep ease        ...and many others.  For a complete listing of offerings, visit Brad’s site

eTappings will help you become more comfortable with the tapping process, so that you will find yourself naturally discovering the right words for each round.  I find that I can use the sessions over and over for different issues.  Brad also offers a free sample eTapping session on his site.
