“…when there are too many memories of the same type of event happening over time [...] I ask the client to create a two minute movie drawing on elements of what they’ve experienced. This seems to have the effect of neatly gathering together many similar memories, whilst still giving the focus and specificity we need to neutralise their emotional distress using EFT. ”

“For me, this session represents the depth of inner wisdom each of us carries. It also reveals the profound emotional healing we can consistently experience during a fully explored EFT session, especially one that includes creative use of inner visualizations.”

“Melanie wrote: ‘I always tried hard to get them emotionally involved anyway, but it never worked, and I only got hurt. Stepping out of this pattern feels so good.’”

Yet, strange as it looks to be tapping on your skin while humming ‘Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah,’ it works!”

“In 2006, psychologist Caroline Sakai conducted a study of Energy Psychology treatments with 50 Rwandan orphans. The outcomes, recently reported in The International Journal of Emergency Mental Health and summarized in the article, vastly exceed those of any previous peer-reviewed study of a PTSD treatment in terms of speed, degree of effectiveness, and percentage of subjects who were helped.”
