EFT is a mind-body-spirit self-care approach which involves tapping on acupuncture points while repeating emotionally-charged statements that relate to specific health issues, often referred to as acupressure for the emotions. It is an evidence-based method that has been shown in several dozen randomized controlled trials to be effective for a variety of conditions including anxiety, weight loss and food cravings, depression, PTSD, phobias, pain, and other physical symptoms. As a form of energy psychology, EFT addresses the root energetic imbalances that result from trauma and other emotional stressors.
The workshop will explore EFT as an evidence-based approach to addressing the physical symptoms of grief, food cravings, physical illnesses, chronic pain, and autoimmune diseases.
Practitioners will learn:
– EFT focusing on grief related to the loss of loved ones, pets, jobs, and relationships, and associated physical symptoms such as sinusitis, postnasal drip, and lung disease
– EFT for weight loss addressing food cravings, emotional origins of weight gain, and barriers to achieving weight loss goals with principles applicable to other forms of addiction
– EFT for chronic pain syndromes including frozen shoulder and neck and back pain
– EFT for symbolic physical illnesses including autoimmune such as MS, ALS, interstitial cystitis, and chronic urticaria and frozen shoulder using somatic metaphors for healing
– Guided and independent practice of EFT techniques for work with patients/clients
