Adding EFT to your Meditation

Meditation Made Very Simple

Dear EFT Community,

Mediation produces an enormous number of positive effects on the mind and body. A physician friend of mine, Robert Dozor, MD, co-founder of the Integrative Medical Clinic of Santa Rosa, and co-author of the book The Heart of Healing, says, "If meditation were a drug, failure to prescribe it would constitute medical malpractice.” When I emerge from meditation, colors seem brighter, my work load seems lighter, and my levels of optimism and enthusiasm rise. I'm literally addicted to the positive brain chemistry that meditation produces. A psychiatrist I worked with many years ago, Phil Kavanaugh MD, was taking drug addicts and re-directing their addictive tendencies toward meditation; he believed that meditation can make us "feel-good" addicts! Meditation produces a rush of endorphins and neurotransmitters like serotonin. It works beautifully with EFT.

I combine them both, along with the "best practices" from neurofeedback, HeartMath, Transpersonal Psychology, and Law of Attraction, in a powerful new program called WEL or Whole Energy Lifestyle. The form of meditation used in WEL is so simple that even people who've failed at every meditation program they've tried before are meditating successfully in less than five minutes. If you're a newcomer to meditation, or if you've tried it without success in the past, try this simple formula to get you started, and unlock the benefits of combining EFT and meditation.

Steps for Whole Energy Lifestyle (WEL) Meditation

1. As soon as you wake up, sit upright in a quiet space where you will be undisturbed for 15-30 minutes.

2. Tap through the EFT points in any order, while holding the intention that you are in a calm and peaceful state, and nothing matters except the gift of undisturbed time you are now giving yourself. This is time just for you. Let all your preoccupations vanish, and allow yourself to be fully present for the next while. 

3. Let your tongue rest loosely on the floor of your mouth.

4. Picture a big empty space behind your eyes.

5. Breathe slowly, for 6 seconds per outbreath, and 6 seconds per inbreath. Count to 6 silently each time you breathe in, and each time you breathe out.

6. If thoughts arise in your mind, just let them go. Watch them drift like clouds across the sky, without attachment.

7. If feelings arise in the body, such as aches or pains, just observe them. You don't have to do anything about them. Keep your attention focused on your breath, counting 6 seconds in, and 6 seconds out.

Do this every day for a week, and you'll notice a difference in how you feel during the rest of the day. Do this every day for a month, and you'll be hooked. It only requires 15 minutes, though you may want to gradually increase your time frame to 30 or 45 minutes.
