fleetwood, EFT tapping involves tapping gently on some of the meridian points that are associated with the ancient healing system of acupuncture.

What was funny to me was that, the co-worker was a little bashful about mentioning the process. As my wife was describing it, I thought, what an odd thing, and then it dawned on me exactly what it was. I am guessing we probably all have little techniques we use to keep ourselves balanced. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fleetwood_macncheese@...> wrote : Can you summarize wtf it is, in 25 words or less?

The co-worker was describing some thing that his brother is trained in which involved tapping. It took me a minute to catch on realize it was the EFT. It just made me smile because she works in a conservative, male dominated institution, and normally these new age technique ideas originate from me. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfriend@...> wrote : "EFT has no useful effect as a therapy beyond the placebo effect or any known-effective psychological techniques that may be used with the purported 'energy' technique, but proponents of EFT have published material claiming otherwise. Their work, however, is flawed and so unreliable: high-quality research has never confirmed that EFT is effective.[4] "A 2009 review found 'methodological flaws' in research studies that had reported 'small successes' for EFT and the related Tapas Acupressure Technique. The review concluded that positive results may be 'attributable to well-known cognitive and behavioral techniques that are included with the energy manipulation. Psychologists and researchers should be wary of using such techniques, and make efforts to inform the public about the ill effects of therapies that advertise miraculous claims.'
