Hoe to Practice EFT

1. Prepare the setup. Choose the issue you are trying to resolve and repeat it in an affirmation such as, "Even though I have this craving for alcohol, I deeply and completely accept myself." Tap lightly on the Karate Chop Point or Sore Spot.

2. Begin the sequence. Tap about 7 times on each of the points all the way down the body.

3. Complete the 9 Gamut Procedure. Next, you must perform 9 different actions while tapping the Gamut point continuously. The 9 Gamut actions are:
   1. Eyes closed.
   2. Eyes open.
   3. Eyes hard down right while holding the head
   steady.
   4. Eyes hard down left while holding the head
   steady.
   5. Roll eyes in a circle as though your nose was at
   the center of a clock and you were trying to see
   all the numbers in order.
   6. Same as #5 only reverse the direction in which
   you roll your eyes.
   7. Hum 2 seconds of a song (suggest Happy
   Birthday).
   8. Count rapidly from 1 to 5.
   9. Hum 2 seconds of a song again.

4. Go through the setup phase once again, changing the affirmation phrase to "Even though I still have some of this __________, I deeply and completely accept myself."
