Office Stress Relief Via EFT Tapping

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

Many people live most of their working lives with some form of stress. For some it is almost completely debilitating. Increasing numbers of people find the act of getting to work in the morning filled with so much anxiety they become physically ill.

While it may seem that there’s nothing much you can do, short of leaving your job and finding work flipping burgers (which no doubt has its own set of stresses), there is a solution, and it’s one that seems almost too simple to actually work.

Dealing With Stress By EFT Tapping
EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is a method which can be put into operation almost immediately, and which can be used to diminish, or even cure, office stress quickly and effectively.

EFT involves tapping on a sequence of points on the body in order to realign the energy meridians of the body. These energy meridians have become connected with negative emotions, some of which were formed in childhood. These emotions result in fears and phobias in adult lives, even though the triggering event may have occurred decades earlier.

Most stress in the workplace is brought about by some form of fear. A person who has no fear, generally has no reason to stress, even when they are put under pressure they remain unafraid. As a result, they don’t experience stress. For those who do, however, EFT is a very powerful antidote, and can provide almost instant office stress relief.

Determining What Causes The Stress
Sometimes it can be difficult to find a root cause of serious office stress. However, it’s usually brought about by expectations of managers or colleagues, or getting tasks done on time, or achieving necessary milestones, making a certain number of sales or even speaking up in a meeting.

For many, it’s as simple as a fear of being reprimanded. Nobody likes to be told off and made to feel as if they’ve done something wrong. It usually brings back negative memories of childhood, when parents, teachers and other adults scolded them for doing something wrong (often something that the person didn’t even know was wrong until they were reprimanded for it). Unfortunately, this doesn’t end in childhood.

Office stress relief can be as simple as taking something such as a fear of being reprimanded, or a fear of being made a fool of, and disconnecting the associated negative emotions from the energy meridians. When that’s done, the fear may dissipate, and the individual may no longer feel the stress that arises in such situations.
