Should We "Tap In" The Positive?

Question: I keep seeing on the internet about "tapping in" the positive. Please would you give your view on this because that was never part of your original EFT Tapping. I always thought the clearing of stuff occurred from tapping on the negative in an effort to clear those blocks.


Answer: You are right.


The most efficient way to use EFT (EFT Tapping or Optimal EFT) is to focus on the negative. The central idea is to rid ourselves of the negative emotions (guilt, anger, fear, grief, etc.) that imprison our natural, joyous nature. Unlock the prison doors and our emotional freedom can then be beautifully expressed. Health, both physical and emotional, can then blossom.


I have never advocated aiming at the positive. This whole notion came about because enthusiastic EFT'ers, with beginner's or distorted exposure to EFT, wish to "improve" it by injecting their own beliefs into the process. Accordingly, they add in the popular "positive thinking" idea and, unknowingly, dilute EFT's primary value. Positive thinking is fine. But it is a different method and should not be integrated with quality EFT.


Adding in the positive can still generate results and, because of these results, people tend to think this is an improvement. However, it lacks efficiency AND tends to impose positive outcomes that are manufactured and are likely to conflict with the true joy and positivity that already resides within. Not good.
