Emotional Freedom Techniques, EFT for short, is a form of energy healing created by Gary Craig. EFT is based on the principles of acupuncture and involves tapping on specific meridian points or energy pathways. Tapping rebalances the body’s energy system.
In this second in a series of articles on selling your home and attracting your dream home, you will learn how to apply EFT to yourself for the benefit of clearing negative energy from your home! EFT is not only unusual, but to use the technique for the benefit of an inanimate object, well, that’s just weird! However, it works! And, as a bonus, you’ll feel better too.
Here’s how to boost the positive energy in your home so you turn on potential buyers with your pure, vibrant energy:
1. Use EFT to clear negative energy from your home.
Identify negative physical and emotional events that have occurred in the home you want to sell. Low energy physical problems can include:
o Leaky roof
o Damaged floors
o Window once broken by a ball
o Door that is difficult to operate, day after day
Make your list now.
Now take a moment to identify negative emotional experiences that have occurred in your home. Some examples of negative emotional energy that may be “stuck” in your home include:
or marital problems
o Yelling fights with family members
o Power struggles with teens
o Eating and weight disorders
By now you have the idea. Both physical and emotional trauma reduce the attractiveness of your home on the market. Although invisible to the naked eye, all beings are sensitive to the invisible energy realm. As Albert Einstein said, all matter is made of energy, including humans.
2. Use EFT to raise the positive energy in your home.
Now comes the fun part! Identify and list happy events that have occurred in your home. What lucky opportunities started there? What creative ventures happened? Write about success of all kinds. Remember the beauty of your home and surroundings and the kindness of your neighbors. Be creative and see the good in all the time you have lived at this address.
3. Use EFT to calm down.
When listing your home for sale, many fears and concerns arise. Identify what they are.
o Are you worried about how your home will look?
o Worried about which real estate agent to choose or list the house for sale by owner?
o Are you concerned about price, what to order, what you will get, and whether it will be enough?
Please rate your anxiety on a scale of 0 to 10, with 10 being the highest.
Here’s a quick “how to” on EFT. First, familiarize yourself with the tapping points
BEGINNER EYEBROW
SIDE OF EYE
UNDER THE EYE
UNDER THE NOSE
CHIN
CLAVICLE
UNDER THE ARM
FRONT RIB
DOLLS
HEAD
Touch on both sides of the body.
Start at the brow point and tap with your 3 middle fingers and include your pinky if you can. At each of the points to follow, touch about 7 times on both sides of the body, simultaneously. Next, move to the side of the eye point. Then move to the point below the eye, which is in the middle of the U-shaped bone on your cheek. Then touch the point under the nose. Use one hand in the indentation area below your nose. Then move to the chin point, which I often refer to as under the lip. Next, go to the clavicle point. Find the U shape between the clavicles. Then move your fingers about 3 inches to each side. Click here. Then move to the point under the arm. Place your fingers on the sides of your ribs so that your arms are in a wing-like position. Click here. The front rib point is below the nipples for a man, or below the nipples at the bra line for women. Touch the bottom of both wrists together. Last touch on the top of the head.
After familiarizing yourself with the tapping points, consult your list of negative physical energy in your home. Talk out loud about the items on your list. Go ahead, rant while you play!
Next, do the same for your list of negative emotional experiences in your home. Then have fun and take advantage of the positive aspects of all the good fortune you have experienced here. Finally, address your fears about going through with the sales process.
I vividly remember using this process for our house. The results we got were great, and a tremendous benefit is how good I felt, and you will feel, thanks to the use of EFT. You have already illuminated your home. You are vibrating at a higher energy level and will attract just what is needed to advance your vision.
