We all want to make changes in the New Year—whether it's tackling that long list of goals or just finding more peace of mind. But let’s be honest, change isn’t always easy. We can feel overwhelmed by our ambitions or weighed down by stress and anxiety. This can make it harder to move forward, no matter how hard we try.
So, what if there was a simple way to tap into a calmer, more focused version of yourself? The answer might just lie in EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)—a powerful yet easy technique that helps clear emotional blocks and promote a sense of balance.
What is EFT / Tapping and How Does It Work?
EFT, also known as “tapping,” is a form of acupressure combined with affirmations to release negative emotions. It’s as simple as tapping on certain points of your body while acknowledging how you feel. This helps release built-up stress, anxiety, and emotional tension that might be holding you back.
It’s like hitting the reset button on your mind and body.
Why EFT / Tapping Can Help You Start Fresh in 2025
The beauty of EFT is that it works quickly and can be done anywhere. Whether you’re feeling anxious about your goals, overwhelmed by the pressure to “do it all,” or just stuck in old patterns, EFT helps you release those emotions so you can approach the New Year with a clear mind.
EFT helps you:
Calm anxiety – If fear of failure or perfectionism is holding you back, tapping helps release that nervous energy.
Boost your confidence – By clearing away self-doubt, you make room for self-belief.
Let go of old patterns – EFT can help you shift limiting beliefs and emotional baggage that might be preventing you from embracing new opportunities.
A Simple EFT Exercise to Try
Identify the emotion: Let’s say you're feeling anxious about your goals for the year.
Rate your distress: On a scale from 0-10, how strongly do you feel that emotion? (Be honest!)
Start tapping: While tapping gently on the side of your hand (the “karate chop” point), say out loud, “Even though I feel anxious about my goals, I deeply and completely accept myself.”
Tap through the points:
Top of the head
Eyebrow
Side of the eye
Under the eye
Under the nose
Chin
Collarbone
Under the arm
Check your distress level: Have you noticed a change? Reassess and repeat if necessary.
It’s that simple! And it works. For more advanced techniques get in touch for a session, and combining EFT with hypnotherapy can be a real game changer.
Tap Into a New You
EFT can help you feel lighter, more confident, and ready to tackle whatever comes your way. It’s a tool that helps clear emotional clutter, making room for fresh starts and new possibilities. The best part? It’s something you can do on your own anytime, anywhere.
