In How To Use EFT To Solve Everyday Problems I described some of the difficulties people who are new to EFT have knowing where to start when they want to tackle a problem.

EFT is a great tool for self-help, easily clearing unhelpful emotional responses to life’s little (and not so little) difficulties.
