Using EFT with Children

Home ? Benefits of EFT Index ? Using EFT with Children

One of the most exciting applications of EFT is for children�s issues.� As you can see from the articles below, it is being used with remarkable success for infants from birth upwards to the official end of "childhood" at age 14 (after this age the benefits of EFT are reported elsewhere on this site).

You should realize, however, that this list represents only a small portion of the hundreds of detailed reports that are available concerning EFT's successful use with children.� Reading some of these will give you an idea of what a remarkable tool EFT is for those who deal with children, and (once they know how to do it) for children who learn to use it for themselves.� You will see here accounts by parents, grandparents, friends, teachers, therapists and physicians who are presently using EFT for a wide variety of children's issues.� It is a true gift to any of us to be able to help a child in the way that these people are doing through using EFT.� We can only guess what would happen if this tool were to become more widely known by parents, educators and others �� it could well help to create a new generation of children who will have happier and healthier childhoods than has been possible in the past, and who, because of this, can eventually contribute to making this a truly better world.
