Tapping the Healer Within

This is a striking book about a remarkable therapy invented by the author – thought field therapy. Like many discoveries, TFT comes directly from the author's experience of a patient who did not seem to be responding to his range of interventions. He suddenly had the inspiration that his patient should tap a meridian line and that this might release blocked energy. The result was astoundingly immediate. This led him to further study and research so as to systematise his approach into a series of 'algorithms' for which he claims about 75% success rate. The thought field seems to correspond with the energy body as understood in Chinese medicine so that traumas are disturbances in the field that can be rectified by this technique of tuning into the origins of the trauma and following the series of taps advised. Interestingly, there seems to be scientific backing in terms of measurements of heart rate variability before and after treatment. For further information, see www.tftrx.com
