Why do some people use different tapping points?
A.The body has 14 energy pathways spread throughout the body. They come to the surface in several places; the face, head, upper torso, spine, ankles, wrists, etc. When Gary Craig developed EFT, one of his objectives was to make it simple. You can keep EFT effective and simple by just doing the basic “shortcut” points outlined in Gary’s 79 page manual; EB, OE, UE, UN, CH, CB, UA. However, by adding a few more points, the inside of the wrists, liver spot (over the liver on the right side), and the crown of the head, you are again increasing your effectiveness rate. There are really no right are wrong points. We tend to do what works best for us. And for me using the 10 points mentioned above brings extraordinary results. For awhile I left out the Liver Spot, just for convenience. But with the encouragement of my colleague, acupuncturist Zoe Walton, I added it back in. And maybe it’s just my imagination, but I tell the difference with better results.
