EFT Heir Announces New Programs on UnBreak Your Health Podcast
Written by Alan Smith
In her first interview since the retirement of the creator of the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Tina Craig announced a new training and certification program on the podcast program UnBreak Your Health recently. Gary Craig, her father, developed EFT based on the principles of acupressure from Traditional Chinese Medicine and grew it into one of the world's most popular complementary and alte
ative medicine therapies. Although Mr. Craig declined to endorse any particular school of EFT when he retired, he did say that the closest thing to learning EFT from the source was his daughter's program.
EFT is one of the most popular types of complementary and alte
ative (CAM) therapy due to Gary Craig's innovative marketing. Although EFT is most popular in the English-speaking countries there have been over 1.5 million downloads of the EFT manual resulting in several millio
EFT practitioners estimated today around the world.
"The downside of this phenomenal growth was EFT became like that game where one person whispers into another person's ear and as the message travels down the line there are so many little changes that it becomes unrecognizable," according to Ms. Craig. On the podcast program UnBreak Your Health she added the original training videos and workshops did not do a good enough job even though EFT became wildly popular. When her father retired last year it was a high priority for him that his daughter continue the original EFT treatment method.
To correct the earlier problems Ms. Craig is taking the original EFT to the next level with her new program with the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP). As the Program Director for the ACEP EFT Certification Program she said this is an opportunity to teach material that goes beyond the older model. The original three-level training program has been combined into the first level at ACEP with two more training levels that offer additional material that was never offered in the original program. She added that the original Emofree program was simply an academic program with an online exam while the new ACEP program is a certification program that validates someone's skill as a practitioner.
One of the ACEP EFT program benefits is that customers will have a better understanding of the qualifications of a practitioner offering the original EFT program. Current EFT practitioners can go through retraining and certification to improve their skills. However there has been a lot of resistance from existing practitioners to the new program so they've renamed their services Tapping, MTT and other terms.
"I really want to be sure that a paying client can get a session that delivers the best of EFT and that requires a different kind of training than we've had in the past," according to Ms. Craig. Anyone wanting to learn more about her new program can visit http://eftcertification.com/
Ms. Craig's main focus at this point is to help EFT become accepted by the mainstream of health care so that insurance companies, medical organizations, and the government recognize the value of EFT. For the full interview go to http://www.unbreakyourhealth.com/podcasts.htm.

Research of Cell Membrane Nano Drug Delivery System and Its Application in Bionic Nanomedicine
Most of the old drugs are currently limited in their effectiveness because of poor pharmacokinetics, simple clearance by the body and cytotoxicity. Nanoparticle technology in particular, Nano drug delivery system is getting a lot of attention and application in medicine in the recent years. Since it is small (1100nm), targets well, and stays in the circulation long enough, NPs are a good candidate as a drug carrier, enabling an enhanced in vivo targeting capability and less n
