HOW EFT CHANGES LIVES AND IMPROVES HEALTH OUTCOMES

Over the past 30 years, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) has gained recognition as an effective therapy for addressing emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual issues including: loss of sense of purpose, feeling overwhelmed, anxiety and panic, depression, fatigue, fears and phobias, fibromyalgia,  trauma, low self esteem, to name but a few. 

Numerous peer reviewed published studies indicate efficacy of EFT, offering insights into its effectiveness and the underlying mechanisms involved.  A recent study also indicated EFT is helpful for people experiencing 'chemo brain'; this was particularly interesting to me as many of the people who contact me are affected by cancer.

Read on, if you're curious to learn more about the empirical evidence behind EFT

Psychological: A plethora of scientific studies have shown promising results regarding the effectiveness of EFT. For example, a meta-analysis published in the Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease found that EFT significantly reduced symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in both civilian and military populations. Other studies have demonstrated its efficacy in reducing anxiety, depression, phobias, and other psychological conditions.

Pain Management: Dr. Peta Stapleton's research on pain management demonstrated that EFT can effectively reduce the intensity of chronic pain conditions, including fibromyalgia. Participants in her studies reported experiencing significant relief from pain and improved quality of life after using EFT.

NICE, the UK medicines watchdog officially recommended further research of EFT.  This recommendation is only made when its own analysis indicates an intervention to be consistently effective.  In the case of EFT, it was consistently in the top four most effective interventions for PTSD.

Neurological and Biological Changes: Research suggests that EFT may induce physiological changes in the body and brain. Studies utilizing techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have shown that EFT can regulate the amygdala, a part of the brain involved in the stress response, leading to decreased emotional intensity and improved emotional regulation. Dr Dawson Church's studies showed a decrease in the level of cortiosol.

Mental Health Recovery & Resilience: EFT has been found to be beneficial for psychological well-being. A number of studies show that EFT can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and even post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), with participants experiencing improved mental health and resilience after engaging in EFT sessions.

Hormonal Health: Research by Dr. Stapleton indicated that EFT may have positive effects on hormonal health. For instance, her studies found that EFT can help reduce cortisol levels, the stress hormone, leading to improved stress management and overall hormonal balance.

WHAT MAKES THIS EFT TRAINING DIFFERENT?

With a deep commitment to spiritual growth and healing, I bring a compassionate and mindful approach to EFT.

Our journey together is not just about learning about tapping; it's about awakening the soul to profound transformation.  Throughout the program, I weave mindfulness practices into every tapping technique, fostering a deep connection between you and the spiritual essence of healing.

I offer high quality interactive live ZOOM training that follows the approved syllabus of the EFT and Mindfulness Centre.  I bring to this training an extensive knowledge of somatic, trauma-informed approaches to health and wellbeing. 

The spiritual dimensions of EFT are subjective, and individuals may interpret their experiences through the lens of their personal beliefs and spiritual frameworks.

It is my experience that while EFT is rooted in psychological and neuroscientific principles, its holistic nature and transformative potential can contribute to a profound spiritual sense of well-being for some practitioners and clients.

IS THIS a PRACTITONER level course?

Yes. As you embark on your accredited EFT training, you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the emerging theory, and the necessary skills to develop your own individual art of delivery of EFT.

You'll be equipped to apply these techniques with confidence, offering transformative healing to those who seek it.

I don't want to be a practitioner, can I still complete this course?

Yes, absolutely. It's a wonderful tool for people of all ages and backgrounds to help themselves manage the highs and lows of daily life, transform emotions, manage anxiety and stress, reduce pain levels, food cravings, and lots more besides.

HOW DO i ENROL FOR THIS COURSE?

Enrolment is simple. To secure your place, contact Maria directly to make payment for the EFT Training course you wish to complete.

Once the payment has been received your place is secured, Maria will then email you with all necessary information including confirmed dates and timings, and the pdf training manuals/workbooks.

Prior to the first of the online EFT Training sessions, Maria will provide you with the Zoom meeting room number and password to her a private and secure Zoom meeting room where the online sessions will take place.

is it complicated to log onto zoom?

It's really simple to join the Zoom training sessions.

Option 1 - Simply click on the Zoom link found within your enrolment email from Maria.
Option 2 - Download the Zoom app to your laptop, then follow these steps:

• Open your computer's internet browser and navigate to the Zoom website at Zoom.us.
• Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click "Download" in the web page's footer.
• On the Download Center page, click "Download" under the "Zoom Client for Meetings" section.
• The Zoom app will then begin downloading

The Zoom room will always be open 5 minutes before the start of each training session, to ensure you are comfortable with navigating around the zoom room before the training session commences.

Is online training as good as in person training?

Absolutely! In fact, some trainees have said they prefer it to in-person training because there are far less distractions so they can focus more easily on the content being shared.

One of the joys of EFT Training is that it is experiential, which means having the opportunity to work one-on-one with other like minded people to release emotions that no longer serve you. The Zoom Breakout Rooms are perfect for this and many prefer it to in-person training because they are less distracted by the sounds of other people talking within the same environment.

The Zoom technology also allows Maria to observe and listen in without disturbing the flow of your practice.

WHAT IS EFT (EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUES)?

EFT, or Emotional Freedom Technique, is a therapeutic approach that combines elements of traditional psychotherapy with acupressure. It is often referred to as "tapping" due to its main technique which involves tapping on specific points on the body. 

The fundamental principle of EFT is that emotional distress and psychological issues are caused by disruptions in the body's energy system. By tapping on specific acupressure points, EFT aims to restore the balance and flow of energy, thereby addressing emotional and psychological problems.

Having initially been regarded as a weird and wacky practice, over the years EFT or Tapping has grown in acceptance principally because various studies show it to be effective at calming a maladaptive stress response present in so many of us.  Indeed the feeling of stress and overwhelm that has grown in response to the pandemic and associated social and economic repercussions has impacted most of the population, with many experiencing anxiety, fatigue, sleep disturbance, joint and muscle  pain and signs and symptoms of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). 
 
There is an ever-growing number of peer reviewed scientific studies and anecdotal reports recording the benefits of EFT.  For those who are new to EFT and alternative approaches find it helpful to understand of the mechanisms involved. Below I will provide an introduction to possible explanations to the healing that occurs when applying EFT.

Neurological Plasticity: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) show that stimulating the powerful acu-points on the head and torso has the effect of calming the amygdala, part of the brain involved in the stress response. The body has to move out of the stress response before it is able to repair and renew. 

Primo-vascular System: Until very recently science viewed the concepts of traditional eastern medicine with scepticism since it had not been possible to identify anatomical systems that allowed the responses attributed to the meridian system. But recently a previously unknown biological system has been discovered that actually corresponds to the meridian system.

Improvements in scientific equipment has enabled the discovery of the Primo Vascular System (PVS).  This is an extensive network of miniscule vessels and nodes that exist as a circulatory system independent of blood and lymph.  As this system develops within 20 hours of fertilisation it precedes the development of other organs and systems, and is common to the development of all biological systems including vertebrates, invertebrates and plants. 

While the existing research provides valuable insights, it is important to note that further studies are needed to fully explain the relationship between the primo vascular and meridian systems and the function of these systems in health and healing.

Simply put, EFT tapping is one of the most effective techniques available to you.  Whether you use it on its own or to supplement traditional or medical treatment, 'tapping' can supercharge and drastically reduce recovery time and help you to manage how you feel about it all.
