Uploaded exclusively for the members of elib.tech!Enjoy Emotional Freedom:Simple techniques for living life to the fullby Steve Wells and David LakeJune 2010 | 240 pages | PDFhttps://www.amazon.com/Enjoy-Emotional-Freedom-Simple-techni…Emotional Freedom Therapy or (EFT) is a remarkable technique that alleviates emotional distress using simple yet elegant techniques based on the body’s energy meridians. By teaching an easily adopted system of tapping on the body’s meridian points, ENJOY EMOTIONAL FREEDOM enables you to ‘tune’ and ‘tone’ your body’s energy system for immediate relaxation and relief from stress and anxiety. EFT is one of the few techniques that ordinary people can use to gain some control over dysfunctional feelings. ENJOY EMOTIONAL FREEDOM is full of deceptively simple yet highly effective tips and strategies that guide you into ways of being better balanced and more emotionally ‘fit’, regardless of any negative thinking you might be saddled with at present. Let the authors give you the life-long gift of emotional freedom.This is a little book about a big subject. It represents the fruit of a decade of experimentation and innovation in the field of energy psychology by two of the most enthusiastic and original contributors. In a nutshell the techniques taught in this book allow someone to ‘tune’ and ‘tone’ their body’s energy system for the immediate benefit of relaxation and a reduction of the body’s stress responses. They can also learn how to apply the meridian energy stimulation directly to a number of emotional issues with predictable positive results: typically, these are the issues of fear, anxiety and hurt.There are very, very few techniques that ordinary people can use alone to gain some control over dysfunctional feelings – and the techniques in this book represent two of them. The SET technique is a body technique—not really a mental one. It does have a great effect on the thoughts over time but not necessarily a direct one. The feeling that hurts us is ‘stuck’ in the body. This is where the change (processing of emotion) will occur. You know you have a problem because when you think of something you have unpleasant feeling-reactions. If there is no ‘hot’ feeling when you think of a problem—then where is the problem?ENJOY EMOTIONAL FREEDOM enables and empowers the ordinary person to start getting results now, without having to be psychologically-minded or clever. It’s full of useful tips and strategies which can be deceptively simple. This book guides you into ways of being better balanced and more emotionally ‘fit’ regardless of the thinking you might be saddled with at present. Best of all, it gives you the life-long gift of being able to help yourself far more than you ever imagined.Amazon reviewer wrote:If you could only have a few books on EFT in your library this is one of them! Outstanding resource on energy psychology and techniques. I have read many books on EFT and more than any others this book has struck a cord with me. It has really motivated me to apply these methods in my life. At certain points in our lives there seems to be certain people or books at come into your life that leads you to a path of change, this is one of those books. I have search for and tried may self-development/self-help methods in the past such as NLP,The Healing Codes, REBT and other cognitive-behavioral techniques but this book has not only lead me to think about self-development and personal change and why I keep searching but I have found a combination of tools to address those issues in a way that appears to be working for me for once. I am not naive enough to believe that this is a cure all and only time will tell about long-term personal change but I have found the authors Simple Energy Techniques (SET) to be invaluable and I combine SET with EFT’s set-up statements as a very effective one-two punch on any issues that I am working on. I am using their concept of “energy toning” on a daily basis and, surprisingly, I have found that when I am congested using SET will lead to partial to full relief of my symptoms within a short period of time. I do not even have to tap on the issue of being congested I just tap while I am reading or watching TV and I gain relief! Great book on energy psychology and I highly recommend it! If I could give the book more than 5 stars I would!Amazon reviewer wrote:Excellent book. I already knew Emotional Freedom Techniques tapping from before reading it, but this book helped me clarify many important aspects that allowed me not only to stop making it harder than it needed to be but also more effective. I strongly recommend it.Amazon reviewer wrote:Enjoy Emotional Freedom is marketed as a do-it-yourself book on Tapping Therapy for Beginners, but its 230 or so pages are much more than that. It is a book that should be on the shelves of all EFT practitioners however experienced.The difference between EFT and SET is clearly set out and the form of SET is well presented. Despite its name, SET (Simple Energy Techniques) although admittedly `simple’ still stands as a useful tool in the tool box of therapists however skilled. There is little point in doing things the complex way, when the simpler way works just as well. In fact there are many advantages in doing it simply.The book is well written in their easy to digest style and is biased to the practical, although the theory is adequately covered. It is dotted through with a host of practical examples, which bring out specific teaching points as well as making it an easier and more interesting read. Rather than simply instructing the reader in what can or should be done, the authors show how they have done it.The chapters on FAQs and of Research provide a useful resource.Table of contents:Chapter 1: What is Emotional Freedom? ■ Chapter 2: The Energy Techniques ■ Chapter 3: Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) ■ Chapter 4: Simple Energy Techniques (SET) ■ Chapter 5: General Applications of EFT/SET ■ Chapter 6: Specific Applications of EFT/SET
