THE SUN NEWSPAPER -

MAY 2009

Jane Hamilton said "MORE than a million Brits are hooked on the  UK's most habit-forming substance.  Every day they battle terrible cravings - and tempting hits are available on almost every street corner for as little as 30p. 

I'm talking about chocolate."

 

EFT Practioners believe that emotional upsets are caused by an disturbance in the body's energy system.  By tapping on the energy system (the meridian points, better known as acupuncture points - EFT Practitioners tap on these points rather than use needles) the energy system can be brought into balance.  EFT is also known as a pyschological energy therapy. 

 

Jane continues: "To many it is the world's most addictive foodstuff and kicking the habit can be as hard as coming off drugs. 

I've been hooked on my sugary fixes for more than 20 years and have tried almost every way to quit. 

I've been through hypnotherapy, aversion therapy, willpower, diets and even sniffing vanilla oil, which is supposed to counter craving. Nothing worked. 

But now a new therapy claims an 80 per cent success rate for overcoming chocolate addiction. 

Called Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT, it involves a therapist tapping on meridian pressure points on the head, neck and arms - like acupuncture but without the needles. 

Practitioners say it can help people overcome phobias and end addictions in just a couple of sessions. 

Lily Allen recently used it to help her lose weight. Madonna is rumoured to be a fan too. 

I'll admit I was sceptical, but after just one session I have conquered my cravings. 

Therapist Carey Mann, 37, quit a well-paid job in TV production to train in EFT after she overcame her own binge-eating problem using the treatment. 

Now her clients range from athletes who use it to beat pain to City workers hooked on cocaine."

The article also says that Madonna is allegedly a fan of EFT.  Perhaps Robbie Williams might benefit as he has supposedly said chocolate is one addiction he can't get over.  Do you have a problem with chocolate?  Perhaps a MindHarmony4Life holiday could help you too.
