NLP and EFT – Fab Methods of Alternative Healing

NLP and EFT – Fab Methods of Alternative Healing

If you have interests in the field of alternative healing you may have already come across EFT or the Emotional Freedom Technique where certain points on the body are tapped whilst thinking of a problem.  The information for learning EFT is available free so all you need to do is make time to learn.

How can we make the most of EFT as a change process?  The answer is to “supercharge” the technique by using presuppositions of NLP to prepare the mind for positive change just prior to using EFT.  That’s twice the healing you had before.  I have found this to also apply to other healing techniques or change processes outside the field of NLP.

A presupposition relies on something other than the statement itself to be true.  Whether or not the statement is true the brain must accept the information as true in order to understand it in the first place.   You’ll find it easier to understand with some examples:

* It doesn’t matter if you heal now, or later  (presupposes you will heal)

* How easy will it be for you to feel better now? (that you will feel better)

* Just as you have healed a cut, you can heal this (that a cut is as easy to heal, that you have been cut before)

Of course presuppositions can be simple or complex.

You could also use many other NLP techniques such as pacing and leading  or metamodeling which will improve things even more, however if you are new to EFT I suggest just the presuppositions for now.

The point is by combining a very simple idea (let’s face it you don’t have to have been fully trained in NLP or hypnosis to use this) with another healing technique you optimise change.   And that’s a good thing.
