Anxiety can be tamed

Anxiety and fear is part of our way to survival, but when we are taken over by the emotion it prevents us from thinking straight. Anxiety occurs when the sympathetic part of the autonomic nervous system takes over. This treatment promotes realignment neurologically, in the physical body and in the energy system. Imagine a two-way communication activating the natural healing data held within.

Thought Field Therapy (TFT) is an amazingly fast way of eliminating unwanted emotions. This treatment for anxiety can also be used for panic attacks, trauma, phobias and addiction.

Please prepare yourself by reading the full instructions before you start.

Step 1 Find pen and paper. Think about your anxiety. Notice the degree of the discomfort. Rate the level on a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is no discomfort and 10 is the worst possible. Note the number on a piece of paper.

Step 2 While thinking of your problem and feeling the unwanted emotions take two fingers and start tapping. It makes no difference which hand you use or which side of the body you treat.

Step 3 Tap the PR spot which is located where you would hit if you were to do a karate chop with the side of your hand. (No. 1 on the image). Tap 5-10 times.

Step 4 Tap the beginning of your eyebrow 5-10 times (No. 2 on the image).

Step 5 Tap 5-10 times under your eye on the top of your cheek bone (No. 3 on the image).

Step 6 Tap 5-10 times under your arm approximately a hand's breadth below the arm pit. (No. 4 on the image).

Step 7 Tap 5-10 times under your collarbone approximately 1.5" from the center of your body. (No. 5 on the image).

Step 8 The Nine Gamut series. Keep your head perfectly still throughout the Series and gaze straight ahead. Tap your Gamut point on the surface of your hand in the indent between your little finger and your ring finger (where Gamut is located on the image). Keep tapping as you proceed with the exercises outlined below. Tap 5-10 times per step.

  1. Look straight ahead.
  2. Close your eyes.
  3. With your eyes only look down to the right.
  4. With your eyes only look down to the left.
  5. Roll your eyes around in a big circle.
  6. Repeat rolling your eyes the opposite way around.
  7. Hum a few tones with your mouth closed.
  8. Count aloud to five. Remember to tap all the time.
  9. Hum again.

Step 9 Repeat step 4-7 tapping the beginning of your eyebrow (No. 2), under your eye (No. 3), under your arm (No.4) and under your collarbone (No. 5.).

Step 10 Reconnect to your feeling of panic and rate the level of the feeling on the scale from 1 to 10. If the discomfort is at 2 or lower; Continue to Step 11. If the discomfort is unchanged or if it has not decreased by at least 2 points on the scale; Repeat the procedure from the beginning. If going through the procedure several times isn't helping, I would advise you to seek further help.

Step 11 Final step is finishing the treatment with the eye-roll exercise. Hold your head perfectly still and start tapping the Gamut point on the surface of your hand as indicated on the image. Keep tapping and while keeping your head still, let your eyes roll in slow motion from the floor all the way to the ceiling (at least for 6 seconds).

Congratulations! You finished the TFT selfhelp tool for anxiety.
