The EFT and energy psychology community mourns the passing of Gary Craig, the founder of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) also referred to as Tapping.

When I first came across EFT, there was hardly any research to back it up and I was honestly very sceptical about tapping on points to create emotional and physical change.

What shifted my view was the impact I saw again and again, especially in easing pain and helping myself and others feel more grounded and at ease, feel better. Those results led me to train as an advanced EFT practitioner, and tapping has since become one of the core tools I use to support people to feel better, emotionally and physically.

Thank you, Gary, for your courage, your generosity and your “open hand” in sharing this work with the world. Every time someone feels a little lighter after tapping, your legacy is alive.

Struggling with this time of year? 😢😳 Whether …

…you’re struggling with being alone or feeling alone OR

…you’re struggling with pain, fatigue, stress or anxiety OR

…you’re struggling with the tiredness of masking your neurodiversity OR

…you’re struggling with being the only person of colour in the room OR

…you’re struggling with any other difference that makes you a minority….

… you’re likely to have some feelings about that!

This time of year can make what we struggle with in everyday life even more challenging. Don’t suffer in silence. You’re not alone!

There’s a service that’s called “find a helpline” that connects you with emotional support via phone, text or online chat.

It’s connected to over 1300 helplines in more than 130 countries so it’s likely that it can connect you with support where you are.

👉 Tap this link to find a helpline near you

https://findahelpline.com

Personal note: When I was suffering from Complex Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder and dealing with seriously life-limiting symptoms of ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia I benefitted greatly from a helpline that was available where I lived. That in the moment support from a caring and anonymous person was life-changing and life-saving.

I’ve been there and know how hard it can be. You’re not alone - lean into your courage and reach out 💪⛑️

With love and care, Thor ❤️⚡️

Did you know you can learn your First Aid for Feelings on Insight Timer in ten 15 minute modules?

Lauren says:

❝I’ve just finished this course for the third time, and I know I’ll be returning to it again and again. I’ve found this course so helpful for me in my everyday life.

I appreciate how every lesson builds off the previous lesson and how Thor always invites the you to check in with yourself throughout each lesson. Additionally, Thor always provides actionable steps for you to implement, which I really appreciate as it helps me to practice applying what I’ve learned. Also, the ABCs are so simple and yet powerful.

This course has helped me to further develop my awareness and practice being skillful when it comes to whatever I’m experiencing. I also really appreciate Thor’s compassion.

I’ve learned so much from this course, and I’m so grateful for it! Thank you Thor for creating it!❞

❝ Education about the importance of quality rest and sleep and skills training on energy conservation techniques can help patients manage their symptoms better. ❞

This quote is from a recent factsheet from the World Health Organisation (WHO) about Long Covid, also referred to as Post Covid Condition or PCC.

Long Covid and its devastating impact may be less in the news but it’s no less impactful for those dealing with it.

Self-care and specific self-care skills are getting more and more recognition in terms of just how important they are when caring for ill health.

Here’s a list of some of the self-care skills mentioned

• Knowing how to respond promptly to a flare-up or relapse
• Knowing how to dentify possible triggers
• Knowing how to reduce activity levels
• Knowing how to monitor symptoms over time
• Knowing when to return to usual activity levels after flare-up
• Knowing when to use assistive devices
• Knowing how to identify environmental modifications at work and home

Teaching and training self-care skills is what we here at The Helpful Clinic do and what First Aid for Feelings was designed to support.

As a health activist, committed to personal agency, advocacy and self-care skills, this is music to my ears and great news 👍

It shows the power of work by organisations such as International Self-Care Foundation, the Self-Care Academic Research Unit at Imperial College London, Global Self-Care Federation, the Self Care Forum and many others in driving forward a shift towards Self-Driven Health-Care and personal agency.

NOTE Self-care skills may not always support full recovery but they can support symptom improvement, strengthen personal agency and advocacy and increase quality of life.
