Organs and emotions - if that sounds like a funny combination you might be surprised to learn that according to Traditional Chinese Medicine the two go hand in hand. Each main meridian energy channel of the body is related to a specific physiological organ such as the heart, pancreas or spleen, and each organ has its key emotional expression.

These are the energy channels on which the EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) treatment points can be found. For interested EFT users/practitioners the references to the relevant EFT points for each channel are also given.
