How to find relief from a Breakup Using EFT Tapping
Breakups are tough for anyone. I’ve had a few relationships in my life, and every time I thought, “This is it. This might be my forever,” only to realize after a few weeks or months that the person wasn’t interested anymore.
One heartbreak that really stayed with me was with a man I was involved with for around four years. He told me he couldn’t marry me, and that shattered my world. I collapsed emotionally.

The memories and pain were so intense that I stopped eating because I felt no hunger. Depression took control over me, and it became impossible to be myself.
The Emotional Impact of Attachments
Breakups hurt so much because of the attachments we form. We tie our happiness, routines, and even sense of self to another person. When they leave, it feels like your entire world is gone, and you start questioning your worth:
- Did they ever love me?
- Did I mean anything to them?
In my case, after four years, I realized I had been nothing to him—despite all the dreams I had that we would be important to each other. This shattered my self-confidence and sense of self-worth.
Breakups are extremely hard when you grow fond of someone. The emotional pain can feel overwhelming.
How EFT Tapping Helps with Breakups
EFT tapping (or EFT tapping) is an incredibly effective tool for healing after a breakup. I’ve used it myself, and I’ve guided many clients through this process. Here’s how it works:
- Identify Events: I ask clients to recall specific moments with their ex that keep resurfacing in daily life.
- Tap Through Emotions: We work on these events, exploring all related emotions. Often, childhood patterns and unresolved issues come up as well.
- Rate Intensity: We rate each emotion on a scale from 0 to 10, tap through them, and observe the intensity decrease.
- Multiple Sessions: After 2–3 sessions, clients usually feel much lighter, less attached, and more at peace. The hurt, heartbreak, and trauma begin to dissolve.
The Connection Between Breakups and Childhood Trauma
Most people who struggle after breakups have attachment issues, often rooted in childhood trauma experiences. EFT helps uncover these patterns and heal them, which improves your ability to form healthier connections in the future.
Breakups can reopen old wounds, but tapping allows you to process:
- Childhood rejection
- Old emotional patterns
- Negative beliefs about love and self-worth
By resolving these, you not only heal from the breakup but also enhance your overall quality of life. You become more resilient, more aware of your needs, and better at choosing partners who are right for you.
The Power of EFT Tapping
The best part about EFT is that once negative emotions and beliefs are addressed, they don’t come back. You permanently release the emotional charge tied to past relationships.
Even though the breakup happened, and thoughts might occasionally resurface, you feel lighter, freer, and happier. Life can improve beyond what it was before the relationship.
For me personally, EFT helped me process heartbreak in a way that allowed me to move on fully.
I could feel happy for my ex even after we parted ways, without obsessive thoughts or emotional pain. Every session provided immediate relief and long-term emotional stability.
Why EFT is the Best Way to Move On
EFT tapping is one of the most effective ways to move on from a breakup because:
- It helps you process all aspects of the emotional experience.
- It addresses underlying patterns and childhood influences.
- It provides long-term emotional relief, unlike other methods that only suppress emotions.
If you’re struggling to get over an ex and want support, EFT tapping sessions can guide you through the healing process safely and effectively.
If you are not sure about EFT Tapping, you can try tapping on some emotions that are bothering you now and see the intensity of the emotions lower right now! Yes, that is how EFT Tapping is and that is how quickly it has changed my life.
