Placebo Effect
The Placebo effect does take belief. "Different countries and cultures can establish their own organizations and rules without having to go through me." Gary Craig´s letter January 15, 2010. 1. People are helped when you go through the correct tapping protocol. People are helped when you fake the protocol. People are helped when the therapist taps on himself and not on the patient. People are helped when a mannequin or doll is tapped? What kind of science is this? 2. Only a fake disease can be relieved with a fake therapy. This is the only conclusion that makes sense. That is what there is to learn with EFT. That means use it. Make any investigation to find out that disease is not real the way we think that it is. 3. You speak with the voice of grave disappointment when you say that these kinds of things play with people's hopes. You also have a rock solid belief that the science of disease is real. And the science of healing must be equally as "real". In allopathic medicine a "real" chemical is introduced to a real receptor site on a real cell, and a real effect causes the disappearance of a real symptom. Of course the cause of the symptom has not been discovered and it remains to sprout up as the next "real" disease. The "real" causes are blithely ascribed to outside forces. "I touched the lavatory doorknob, somebody coughed, or a bug flew up my nose." The opportunity with EFT, a healing system based in languaging and calling forth old memories of images, is to find that much of disease is manifested through languaging and old images. Otherwise how could it ever work, even one time? The same with the placebo effect, if belief can heal, then the disease is also a belief. Not just some diseases because placebo tests work on some people with every major drug test, on every kind of disease. (Why do I say "EFT proves non-duality"? Because Advaita always says that life is illusion, that nothing really exists in the way you think that it does.) (source: https://www.shardsofconsciousness.com/eft-and-the-placebo-effect) "Whilst this generosity allowed the application of EFT to spread quickly it now poses the problem of identifying ethical practice versus good intention, but with little understanding of ethical practice."(eftresearch.co.uk) *There is no certification that allows someone to work outside of their scope of practice. Being certified in EFT does not mean that one can practice psychotherapy, unless he or she is licensed by their state, and this has no exception, no other EFT organization can made you licensed in the practice of psychotherapy.
What we don't know is how many people were not helped, because that has not been documented, and of course the greater part of 6 billion people have not, because they never heard of it. It is said that it takes a "willingness" but that belief is not necessary. If you are not willing, it is not going to work. The Placebo effect does take belief.
Gary Craig is the inventor of EFT, and is now retired, best of all, anyone can learn and use his discoveries of EFT in a relatively short amount of time, and achieve great results in relieving stress and other uncomfortable feelings. We encourage you to take advantage of any live opportunity to learn and experience these techniques, the most well-known site for EFT is still EFT Universe (old emofree), Gary in his last leter let his legacy to the entire world, see it in his personal letter.
