Choose an Event You Can Stay Present With
Choose a specific event from the past that feels connected to the pain or condition, or simply one that still bothers you now. A felt connection is a possible EFT doorway, not proof that the event caused a diagnosis.
Rate the event’s present intensity from 0 to 10. If it is too activating to stay grounded and aware of the present, choose a smaller event or work with skilled trauma-aware support.
