Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a simple to learn process that can be used to greatly relieve the emotional aspects of cancer from diagnosis through treatment and living beyond cancer.

Here are five ways you can use EFT:

1. To help recover from difficult appointments and medical procedures so that you don’t lie awake at night reliving unpleasant news or experiences.
2. To prepare for upcoming appointments so that you can be calm, collected and resourceful rather than a bag of nerves.
3. For neutralising unhelpful beliefs about cancer and it’s treatment. Such as the often held belief that ‘cancer is a death sentence’
4. To resolve problems about different aspects of medical treatments such as needle phobias, scanner claustrophobia and anxieties about difficult medical procedures.
5. To benefit the carers and partners of cancer patients, helping manage their stress and anxiety and giving them some simple ways to help the patient through their cancer experience.

These are just a few of the ways EFT can help.
