Instant Emotional Healing: Acupressure for the Emotions

Does your fear of flying make travel with friends and family impossible? Are you having trouble coping with the loss of a loved one or forgiving yourself for a mistake you made long ago? For the millions of people who suffer from phobias, anxieties, or distressing emotions such as anger, guilt, and grief, the breakthrough science of Thought Field Therapy—an easy-to-use practice often referred to as “acupressure for the emotions”—can make a remarkable difference. In this groundbreaking book, psychologists Peter Lambrou and George Pratt make their highly successful techniques available to everyone through simple exercises that anyone can use to treat everyday emotional roadblocks with immediate and permanent results.

A blend of Western psychotherapy and Chinese medicine, Thought Field Therapy (or TFT) uses the body’s meridian energy systems to treat emotional issues that can take years to unravel through traditional, talk-based therapy. A combination of breathing and relaxation exercises, affirmations, and tapping on specific pressure points on the body, TFT can instantly eliminate problems such as a fear of flying or public speaking, addictive urges, or painful emotions such as embarrassment or regret. Used on thousands of people with a 95 percent success rate, the step-by-step methods in Instant Emotional Healing now allow you to master this amazingly simple, astonishingly effective practice for yourself—and open the door to a lifetime of emotional control and well-being.

If you have heard of “tapping” or “EFT” (Emotional Freedom Technique), this is a book that teaches that skill. It is a combination of stimulating meridian (acupuncture) points while repeating positive mantras. It really works. On a personal note, studying and then applying the ideas presented in this book brought me to a breakthrough place of self understanding.

I really enjoyed this book. I have studied EFT, EMDR and various other techniques for dealing with PTSD. This book is a very comprehensive overview of ESM (Emotional Self Management) and I found it to be a very helpful technique.

I picked this one up at the library and may purchase a copy because I think it would be worth rereading.

this is an excellent, specific handbook for daily use. EFT but more specific, with research and case studies and diagrams and step by step how to's.
