EFT tapping is a powerful technique that can help to promote emotional and physical healing. Getting started can be intimidating if you're new to EFT tapping. We've compiled this step-by-step guide to performing a primary EFT tapping sequence.

First, identify the issue you want to work on and rate the intensity of the emotion or physical sensation on a scale of 0-10. Next, create a setup statement that acknowledges the problem while affirming self-acceptance. Then, tap on specific meridian points on the body while repeating the setup statement and focusing on the issue.

As you tap, you'll likely feel a sense of release and relief. When you're finished, rate the intensity of the emotion or physical sensation again to see if it has decreased. With practice, you can use this simple technique to promote healing and well-being.
