Many of us are aware that obesity is an epidemic in the United States. In fact, the NIH states that nearly two-thirds of all women in the United States are overweight or obese. Although fad diets like Keto are more prevalent than ever, many women aren't losing weight. However, there are several reasons why EFT can help women lose weight.

First and foremost, a study published inThe Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease proved that tapping reduces cortisol levels within the body, which in turn can also help reduce insulin levels and fat storage within the body. Therefore, by using EFT to reduce stress, you can also lose weight.

Furthermore, some studies have shown that tapping can help emotional eaters curb their appetite and work through unhealthy eating habits. One 2019 studyshowed that people who used EFT twice a week for 8 weeks reduced their BMI. In an interview with Women's Health Magazine,Jessica Ortner shared how tapping not only reduced her anxiety, but also helped her lose 30 pounds.

While better sleep and weight loss are definitely great benefits from Tapping, proponents of the practice say it doesn't just end there.In fact, chiropractor and clinical nutritionist Dr. Josh Axe claims that EFT can also help reduce chronic pain, muscular tension, joint pain, tension headaches and migranes.

Furthermore,EFT can help reduce mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD and ADD/ADHD. By Tapping on a regular basis, people can relieve stress and avoid many stress-related health conditions altogether.

And the best part? EFT isn't hard to learn! You can pick up on the technique by watching YouTube tutorials or even using apps like The Tapping Solution.

Whether you're struggling to sleep at night, battling obesity, or just stressed out all the time, EFT Tapping may be an easy solution that can fit into even the busiest mom's day.
