EFT uses a combination of mind focus together with tapping on a small number of meridian points on the upper body and face to clear the energy channels of body and mind.

One round of tapping takes about one minute. You keep tapping the rounds until the anger subsides, which normally happens very quickly, within a few minutes. Once you have successfully released the anger in this way, you gain new clarity of mind. You may experience a sudden sense of relief, as if a weight has been lifted off your shoulders.

Self Perception is making me miserable.. help!
By: daafal | 19-08-2008
I have an interesting perception on the world that I am just now realising is disrupting my overall happiness and functionality. As I get older and responsibilities grow it becomes more evident. It's something i've just learnt about myself. Anyway, I procrastinate and I love helping people, i am always anxious and can't stop planning the next thing to do. I also have this perception that I need to be there for everyone and that everything is urgent... time is waisting. I don't feel happy, i always feel rushed, but I can't seem to slow down. If i say no to people i feel i am letting them down. What should i do because lately my problem has exacerbated to the point multiple people are really worried about me. It cost me my love, and now my family are getting fed up because they are soo worried about how it disrupts me. I hope that is clear... ask if you need more info.
