Try It On Everything - A New EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Documentary
If you're new here, you may want to get free updates via email or RSS. Thanks for visiting!
There’s a new documentary on EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) in the works, called Try It on Everything. More information about it, including a trailer and a free ebook with articles by many proponents of energy healing, including Carol Look, Joe Vitale, and Bob Doyle, can be found at http://www.tryitoneverything.com/
The title of the documentary comes from what has become the #1 suggestion for EFT practitioners. Since the techniques have shown such excellent results when used on a wide variety of issues (from pain management to depression to addictions to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder to performance issues), people have begun tapping on everything to see what kind of results they get. And while EFT is not claimed to be a cure-all, the results so far are pretty amazing.
I was first introduced to EFT through Bob Doyle’s Wealth Beyond Reason program. In that particular program, EFT is used to clear vibrational resistance to wealth creation, and there are some good articles on the EFT website itself about clearing limiting beliefs around money (See Using EFT for Money, Abundance & Success by Carol Look.)
One of my favorite things about EFT is that you don’t have to “believe in it” for it to work. You just have to do it. There is no claim that any of the theories behind it need to be accepted, any more than you have to “believe” that an asprin will take away a headache for your headache to go away. Of course, the placebo effect will always be a factor, so a belief in the treatment’s effectiveness will usually assist in having a positive outcome.
If you don’t believe in it so much that you aren’t even willing to try it, then you’ll get exactly no results.
On a personal level, I’ve had the most success with EFT when it comes to motivation and procrastination. Whether it’s getting started on a project that I’ve been thinking about, doing my Daily Target Praxis in the mornings, or sitting at the computer staring at a blank screen with nothing to write about, EFT is amazing. One round of tapping and I’m usually ready to go. Two rounds and I’m always ready.
I’ve had the least success with my cigarette addiction. One thing that I’m seeing regarding that is just how psychologically reversed I am when it comes to smoking (that’s just a fancy way of saying “I want to quit, but I don’t want to quit.”) The EFT DVD’s devote an entire section to addictive cravings, and when I tap rather than smoke, the craving does go. But the issue is deciding to tap before smoking - and until I’ve worked through the ambivalence, sometimes I’ll choose to tap, and sometimes I’ll choose to smoke.
When it comes to simply raising my mood, the tapping always works, and for someone who has struggled with clinical depression his entire life, this has be a godsend. But once again, you’ve “gotta wanna”, and unfortunately, a person in the pit of depression usually doesn’t feel like they have the ability to do anything. But I do know now that, while there is never a point of no return, it’s easiest to catch a slip in my mood early, while I may be a bit off but not yet completely down.
I’m really excited about this new documentary. I went ahead and purchased the All Access Pass that is being offered, which is a pre-order of the DVD (there’s still six months to go before it’s released) along with tons of bonuses, including pre-release versions of the interviews in the film. And anyone who purchases an All Access Pass also has the opportunity to send a free copy of the film to the institution of their choice, which I think is a fantastic idea!
If you haven’t already, give the trailer a watch. If it peaks your interest, be sure to pick up the Free EFT Get Started Package from emofree.com
And have fun tapping!

How timely your post is! I was having a conversation with my husband about EFT this morning. I KNOW it works in seemingly mysterious ways. I am still trying to get my mind around it all but when all else fails, I try EFT and find that the results usually go well above and beyond what I had planned. For example, when I first watched Borrowing Benefits from Gary Craig, I tapped along feeling really dumb. I was done and over with it and then noticed about a week later, I had stopped picking and biting my nails! A life long habit gone! With no thought at all. I have lots of other proof as well but for some reason, I still question it. Hmmm… perhaps tapping on that would be in order?!
It really is a strange thing, isn’t it, Vickie… I’m the last person who I would have ever have thought would have believed that this stuff would work, but it does.
And I know what you mean about feeling dumb. I still feel that way tapping on issues I actually have. It’s like when I started meditating - I had to do it in the bathroom because I was afraid my wife would see me!
Thanks for your comment. I hope that your husband can be open to it, but if he’s not, he’s not.
