About Gary Craig, in
his words: I am
the founder of EFT and your host at emofree.com. Please know that I am neither
a psychologist nor a licensed therapist. Rather, I am a
Stanford engineering graduate and an ordained minister and, although
we don't pound the table for God here, I do come at this procedure
from a decidedly spiritual perspective.
My ordained ministry is
with the Universal Church of God in Southern California which
is non-denominational and embraces all religions. I am
an avid student of A Course In Miracles but at no time is any
EFT'er asked to follow any specific spiritual teaching.
Other details: I
was born April 13, 1940 and have been intensely interested in
personal improvement via psychology since my age 13. That
was when I recognized that the quality of my thoughts was mirrored
in the quality of my life. Since then I have been self
taught in this field, seeking only those procedures that, in
my opinion, produced results. EFT is my latest finding,
the core of which I learned from Dr. Roger Callahan. I
also have high regard for Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
in which I am a Certified Master Practitioner.
Hugs &
Blessings, Gary
The following is an
excerpt from Gary's site (emofree.com):
I hope this doesn't sound
too grandiose, but I've been doing energy healing work since
1991 and my jaw still drops at the results {of EFT}. I've
lost count of the number of phobias, panic/anxiety attacks, traumatic
memories, guilt, grief and physical ailments that have been elegantly
relieved (often in minutes) by this procedure. Even though
EFT violates just about every conventional belief out there,
the results remain remarkable. EFT isn't perfect, of course.
We don't get 100%. But it usually works well and the results
are sometimes spectacular. It often works where nothing
else will.
We are still learning why
EFT works so well. It centers around the profound effects
of the body's subtle energies using the theory that "the
cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's
energy system."
Accordingly, EFT is
an emotional form of acupuncture except that we don't use needles.
Instead, we tap with the fingertips to stimulate certain meridian
energy points while the client is "tuned in" to the
problem.

The subtle energies that
circulate throughout the body have been largely ignored (until
recently) by western scientists. As a result, our use of
them for emotional and spiritual healing has been sparse at best.
With EFT, however, we consider these subtle energies to be the
front running cause of emotional upsets. As a result, we
generate results that are FAR beyond those of conventional methods.
Even a cursory review of the case histories on this web site
will reveal that.
Further, EFT often provides
relief for a very wide range of physical symptoms. This,
too, is abundantly clear in our case histories, which provide
unmistakable evidence of the link between our physical ailments
and our emotional issues.
EFT is a Doorway to the
new Healing High-Rise. It is where a growing number of
newcomers to this exciting field get their start. We now
have thousands of practitioners using EFT throughout the world.
Compared to other techniques,
EFT is usually quite gentle and substantial relief is often achieved
with little or no pain. This is not true for everyone,
however. Some people's issue are so intense that the mere
mention of them causes emotional or physical pain. Although
truly serious instances of this (sometimes called abreactions)
is most likely to occur in seriously emotionally damaged people
(best estimate is less than 1% of the population), newcomers
to EFT are advised to exercise common sense in this regard and
not go where they aren't qualified.
EFT is easily learned by professionals and laypersons
alike. Thorough and detailed training is given through
our video products. These contain not only the EFT procedures
but also actual sessions with clients. You are shown in
great detail how the procedures are delivered to most people
as well as the "art of delivery" for more difficult
cases. Full details regarding these modestly priced video
sets can be found in the video products section of Gary's site.
To augment your learning,
there is a Tutorial on his web site that contains several articles
designed to refine your understanding of EFT and its many uses.
There is also a whole section on Frequently Asked Questions.
There are also live workshops
given by EFT practitioners. You can find a list of them
on the live workshops section of his web site. Please know
that some workshop presenters teach a blending of EFT with other
procedures. Others vary in the degree of detail they teach.
Thus you may wish to call the presenters before signing up.
