EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques, tapping on special energy points whilst tuning in to an emotional problem which needs to be released, is an energy technique. EFT is not hypnosis, it isn't witchcraft, it isn't psychology or a behavioural pattern interrupt, it isn't tissue massage or physiotherapy - EFT is an example of modern energy work.

Trying to deny this simple fact in order to gain "scientific acceptance" is not an option, as energy work is greatly influenced by intention and directed by conscious focus of attention.

Using EFT from the wrong mind set reduces its effectiveness; and conversely, when we apply EFT "with energy in mind," we put EFT in its rightful place in the treatment of the mind, body, spirit triad and we improve its effectiveness, power, ease of use immediately and noticeably.

Are you involved with modern energy work such as EFT or EmoTrance? Do you love it? And do you feel a little bit uncomfortable to tell everyone about it because you're afraid people will call you a fool, unscientific, or laugh at you? If so, welcome to the club! We all have acquired energy reversals about talking freely about energy!

So if you're a little nervous about holding out your hand to the world and saying, "Good morning! My name is Silvia - and I'm an energist!" join the AMT conference delegates for a group EFT session right now.

Available for the first time in November 2011, the new AMT EFT Master Practitioner certification trainings are the next level in what EFT originator Gary Craig described as a “healing highrise.”

• In June 2011 at the AMT Trainers Meeting at Gatwick, UK, it was decided to adopt the EFT Heart & Soul Protocol for general use as it significantly improves the effectiveness of EFT energy work, streamlines the EFT treatment process and helps EFT practitioners and clients work in a stressfree and mindful manner.

The following changes were made based on Dr Hartmann's report from 2009.

The EFT Heart & Soul Protocol is an evolution of the Classic EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques Protocol which includes the Heart Healing Posture, the Top of the Head and the 3rd Eye point for an elegant, natural and less "mechanical feeling" treatment flow in energy work.

Also included is a printable EFT Heart & Soul Diagram. 

* The EFT Heart & Soul Protocol is used in the EFT Master Practitioner Training Course certified by TheAMT.

Since 1999, the AMT EFT trainings certification programs have been instrumental in bringing top quality EFT + professional training to holistic therapists, psychologists, health workers and other interested parties from around the world.

If you are looking for a solid EFT training program based on Classic EFT with all the tools, techniques, patterns and approaches needed to conduct EFT sessions with clients, The AMT's Practitioner Of Meridian Energy Therapies Certification Program is the first choice to gain a qualification that is internationally recognised and represents a lasting investment for the EFT practitioner, advanced EFT practitioner, and EFT MET Trainer.

• Please note that from 2011, the modern EFT Master Practitioner Certification Training is offered to replace this course.
