Begin Managing Panic Attacks Without Drugs

By zoe | Feb 5, 2010

A relatively new therapy, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique has been used successfully by thousands of people for Managing panic attacks. Other alternative Cures For Panic Attacks include, hypnotherapy, reflexology and NLP.

The Emotional Freedom Technique is very similar to other meridian therapies such as Acupuncture. Used in Chinese medicine, the practice of acupuncture dates back thousands of years, and is the use of long thin needles which are placed lightly on meridian points on the body to stimulate flow of chi.

Similarly, EFT is able to stimulate flow of chi by accessing major meridian points on the body. Because EFT works directly on meridian points on the body, a person can often experience immediate positive effects physically and emotionally. EFT doesn’t use needles or any other tools for that matter, instead a sequence of tapping is done on the energy system using the fingertips.

The mind and body is one energy system, one affects the other directly, like a stressful day which turns into a headache or backache, your mind affects the body and vice versa. Experiencing emotional distress and stress can be interpreted as a disruption in the body’s natural energy flow. As they build up, more stress hormones are released triggering Panic Symptoms.

When you tap a sequence of meridian points on your body it rebalances energy flow, the body and mind calms down, adrenaline levels reduce and negative emotions subside. Unlike other meridian therapies, EFT uses a combination of positive statements throughout the tapping sequence. Emotional pain can manifest as physical symptoms, which is why EFT is so effective since it treats both the cause of the problem as well as it’s symptoms.

Although EFT is a fairly new therapy, it’s use and success has spread across the globe. It has been used for managing panic attacks, addictions, insomnia, trauma, depression, phobias, pain, weight loss and much, much more. Knowing a little about the meridian energy system is useful but it’s not essential since EFT is very easy to apply. There are lots of resources online to find out how to do it step by step.

The tapping sequence is just half of the EFT practice the other half is about focusing and acknowledging the problem. Write down the physical or emotional issue you want to fix so that you begin the technique with a clear outome. It is important to use self accepting and positive language when using affirmations. For a person to grown and love others they must first learn to love themselves.

Managing panic attacks with EFT is very convenient and easy since it can be practiced at any moment. The technique should also be applied as soon as you experience moments of stress, anxiety, negative thoughts or emotions to counteract them. Affirmations are best used out aloud but merely thinking about them may also work. If you feel embarrassed tapping in public, try massaging the meridian points with your finger tips or doing it in private.

Although thousands of people have benefited greatly from EFT it is something that needs to be practiced regularly for consistent results. If it fails to work the first few times, try again, some problems need a lot more work. Many people see how effective EFT is and put it to use to treat other issues they may have. Through consistent practice the body’s natural energy system will continue to get better.
