The Science Behind EFT Group Tapping

At least two research studies have measured the effects of EFT on cortisol (the primary stress hormone) and
the second one supports the power of doing EFT in group format with impressive results!

Why? Because of a phenomenon called Borrowing Benefits.

Landmark EFT + cortisol study: Dawson Church et al. (2012)

✨ 1-hr private EFT tapping session vs. 1-hr private talk therapy/psychoeducation vs. 1-hr resting in a waiting room (control)
✨ 24% decrease in cortisol levels for EFT group vs. 14% decrease for other two treatment groups (traditional talk therapy/psychoeducation and control group)

Replication of 2012 EFT + cortisol study: Peta Stapleton et al. (2020)

(only difference being that everything was done in group format)

✨ 1hr group EFT tapping session vs. 1-hr group talk therapy/psychoeducation vs. 1-hr resting in a waiting room (control)
✨ 43% decrease in cortisol levels for EFT group vs. 19% decrease for talk therapy/psychoeducation group and a 2% increase for the control group
