Gary Craig created the original EFT therapy and following his retirement in 2011, Silvia Hartmann developed her own version of the method called Energy EFT. The main differences include:
- The proposition that energy based therapies such as EFT should be a separate field to that of psychology
- Heart & Soul tapping protocol which includes a breathing technique
- Removal of compound set-up statements. For example, the following set-up statement in classic EFT “Even though I’m afraid of spiders, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself” would be “Afraid of spiders” in Energy EFT.
- SUE (Subjective Units of Experience) scale (-10 to +10) to replace SUD scale (10 to 0) for measuring effectiveness and change within a client.
- Classic EFT is only aimed at releasing negative emotions, whereas Energy EFT switches from releasing negative emotions to building upon positive emotions

Famous quotes containing the words energy and/or eft:
“I rather think the cinema will die. Look at the energy being exerted to revive it—yesterday it was color, today three dimensions. I don’t give it forty years more. Witness the decline of conversation. Only the Irish have remained incomparable conversationalists, maybe because technical progress has passed them by.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1984)
“Here is no eft or mortal snake
But only sluggish duck and drake.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
