I just want to share an insight that I had recently. It may help those who are familiar with Faster EFT. It's about a faster variation (for me at least) of Faster EFT's "Quick Tap".

Robert Smith stacks up emotional states by using words and taps away many of them in one go. This works fine. Here he explains it himself.

However I do a "kinesthetic Quick Tap" which works more efficient for me, since I seem to be more of a kinesthetic person these days.

I basically stack up several specific body sensations directly that appear on a regular basis. Robert Smith uses emotional words instead (which indeed lead to cleaning up body sensations that the brain associates with those words).

Robert Smith Quick Tap goes like this:

1. I release and let go of all sadness.
2. I release and let go of all fears.
3. I release and let go of all emotional traumas.
4. I release and let go of all anger, abandonment, betrayal, rejection, hopelessness, helplessness, loss of control. (any or all is okay, whatever comes)
5. I release and let go of all guilt, shame, blame, grief and everything else.
6. Deep breath in/out, say PEACE.
7. Repeat steps 5-8 under Basic Procedure.

The "Kinesthetic Quick Tap" goes like this:

• I release and let go of all pressure sensations, pain sensations, burning, tightness, heaviness, stickiness, sharpness, throbbing and everything else... in and around my head, in and around my neck, in and around my shoulders, in and around my chest and stomach area, in and around my back and everywhere else.
• Deep breath in/out, say PEACE.

That's it. You might want to add one or two other sensations that you experience. Because my list of sensations is what I feel on a regular basis when I have a problem. It may be a little bit different for you. But the basic structure of this should work.

I checked out fasterEFT after you asked this question. I do really like it a lot! You don't have to say the phrases, just feel the emotion. I like it for right now stress. I combined it with what Karen Naumen refers to as one handed tapping. You use your thumb to tap on the finger points of the same hand. I don't tap on each one seven times, I tap from one to the next over and over until the stress goes away. It works really great! I don't even say let it go, because I am usually doing something else with my other hand or am talking or listening or something.

I use it reguarly. I started off having a couple of sessions with EFT and Matrix Re-impinting, and then I found Faster EFT on you tube. I was suffering from debilitating panic attacks and this helped clear it all up. I also had a severe permanent pain in my lower back that also got rid of with Faster eft. I did not get a quick shift like you see in Roberts videos. I had a lot to work on because I had so many past references. Here is more about my story: http://www.treasureu.co.uk/lizzies-experience-with-fastereft/stop-panic-attacks/ I would highly recommend it. And you can do it for free, just check out Roberts videos and tap along.

EFT or faster EFT can be made even more effective by the use of crystals - according to Judy Hall, a crystal expert. She has developed what she calls CRYSTAL TAPPING. The idea is that you go through all the usual EFT/Faster EFT steps (with one additional tapping point) but use a cleansed and programmed brandenberg crystal to absorb the negative energies.

You first cleanse the brandenberg (various really simple ways to do this) and then dedicate it to helping you to transform and release your negative emotions, toxic thoughts and ingrained patterns.

"A brandenberg, in addition to absorbing negative energy, restores your subtle energy grid to the perfect energetic state it had before a pattern, thought or emotion became ingrained"

She adds one additional tapping point, the soma chakra (the centre of the forehead at the hairline) as this links to the subtle energy grid.

Judy's books - Good Vibrations (for info on crystal tapping) and great info on crystals is in The Crystal Bible.

Yes this I actually did last year on fear, I was getting into EFT because it was recommended on my Your Wish Is Your Command cds. EFT was recommended but more so the original TFT but I am digressing here, I decided this works so well why not just use it on all fear! So I used it on all fear, I felt like superman I felt incredible like I could jump off a roof with no fear. I had to at that time resort to logic even though I had no fear that is still a stupid thing to do.

I don't feel it was permanent because I don't feel like that today about testing my having no fear, I must not have rid myself of all fear as I still deal with Philophobia, that is the fear of falling of being in love.

I suppose when that bothers me I'll work on it, for now I feel great.
