EFT Tapping Points Chart | Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners

If you’re new to tapping, one of the first questions you’ll have is: “Where exactly do I tap?”

That’s where an EFT tapping points chart comes in.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), often simply called tapping, uses your fingertips to gently stimulate specific points on the body while you focus on a feeling, thought, or memory. These points are drawn from acupuncture and acupressure and are located along the body’s meridians.

In this beginner-friendly guide, you’ll learn all the tapping points, the order to use them in, and how to combine them into a simple routine for stress relief and emotional balance.

👆 The 9 Key EFT Tapping Points

When following an EFT tapping points chart, here are the locations you’ll use:

1. Side of Hand (Karate Chop Point)
   On the fleshy part of your outer hand, below the pinky finger. Used for setup statements.
2. Eyebrow (EB)
   At the beginning of your eyebrow, just above the bridge of your nose.
3. Side of Eye (SE)
   On the bone at the outside corner of your eye (temple area).
4. Under Eye (UE)
   On the bone directly beneath your eye, in line with your pupil.
5. Under Nose (UN)
   Between your nose and upper lip.
6. Chin (CH)
   In the crease between your lower lip and chin.
7. Collarbone (CB)
   Just below the hard bony knobs where your collarbones meet, about an inch down.
8. Under Arm (UA)
   On the side of your body, about 4 inches below the armpit (in line with the bra strap for women).
9. Top of Head (TH)
   On the crown of your head, right in the center.

📝 The Basic Tapping Sequence

Here’s how to put the chart into action:

1. Setup: Tap the side of your hand (karate chop point) while saying a setup statement such as:
   “Even though I feel anxious, I deeply and completely accept myself.”
2. Sequence: Tap each of the remaining points (eyebrow → side of eye → under eye → under nose → chin → collarbone → under arm → top of head), saying a short reminder phrase like:
   “This anxiety.”
3. Repeat: Move through the sequence 2–3 times. Pause, take a breath, and notice how you feel.
