Tackle Cravings with faster EFT
Tapping away the craving
Some of this might sound rather unusual but it really works.
If you are experiencing a craving for a cigarette, do the following (read all the way through first).
Think about the craving, and I mean really focus on it. Give it a name and a location for instance "That feeling I get in my chest when I want a cigarette" or "That edgy feeling I get when I want some chocolate."
Give it a number from 0 to to 10, where 10 is the when the feeling is at its most powerful.
Use two or three fingers of your right hand and tap hard enough to hear, but not hard enough to hurt, while saying and thinking out loud the name and location of that feeling, along with the words "Let it go", for bursts of around twenty seconds.
Tap in the places shown on the picture and listed below.
The locations are:
1. The apex of your head, the very top
2. The middle of your forehead.
3. The side of your eye by the right or left temple
4. The lower bone of your right or left eye socket
5. Your collar bone, on the underside, just before it joins your breast bone
6. Now take hold of your wrist without a watch on, and squeeze it gently , still saying the name of that feeling followed by "Let it go"
7. Take a deep breath in and release it SLOWLY saying the word "Peace".
Now see what number you give that craving. Try to locate it.
Repeat it a few times to get it down to zero, or as close to zero as you can.
It may help if you drink a glass of water a few minutes beforehand.
(Why does this work so well? I don't pretend to understand why this is so effective, but it has proven its worth over and over)
