EFT Tapping is the real deal.

This applies to adults, too!

Love this from WholeHearted School Counseling via Trauma Informed Parent.

When we can remember that it's a stress response, we can shut down the mind chatter or expectations that may be getting in the way of our empathy and come in close and Staylisten. 💕

I've been a Healing Touch Practitioner for 15 years and I still can't say exactly what's happening, but I certainly have seen how very helpful it is.

Healing touch and other energy-based therapy is entering conventional hospitals. Can biofold manipulation and "subtle energy" research validate them as medicine?

I love how she defines emotion in this quote. I've played in the emotional layer for many years now and have found that the emotions are absolutely brimming with useful information. When we can welcome them, they give us what we need to navigate life.
"Emotion, I suggest, is a biologically given sense, and our most important one.
Like other senses--hearing, touch, and smell--it is a means by which we know our relation to the world, and is therefore crucial to the survival of human beings in group life.
Emotion is unique among the sense, however, because it is related not only to an orientation toward action, but also to an orientation toward cognition."

I had a client recently who came to me in considerable pain that flared up after a meeting with her soon-to-be ex-husband. She complained of always picking up his negative energy and how she felt helplessly vulnerable to him. We talked about boundaries, energetic and interpersonal, and she wanted to know how to protect herself. Boundaries are strongly connected to our sense of safety - strong, healthy boundaries promote a sense of safety, a lack of boundaries feels dangerous and can keep us stuck in defensive states. I felt that she was stuck in a defensive state and we needed to help her move out of it and feel more safety in her body. I taught her how to do Embodied Scanning, a simple technique we teach in our Healing Through the Vagus Nerve course for practitioners. She commented after just a minute of practicing it that she felt much calmer. She committed to doing it regularly and to writing down a list of boundaries she wants to create for herself. After doing some Healing Touch and Emotion Code work, she remarked that the significant sciatic pain she'd been in constantly for the last week or so was now gone. I also guided her through the Occupy Your Space technique to strengthen her energy field against negative energy from others. She left the office feeling like a different person - calm, pain-free and empowered. If you'd like to learn more about this approach, our next round of the 5-week Healing Through the Vagus Nerve course for energy medicine practitioners starts on October 14th and you can learn more about it at www.healingthroughthevagusnerve.com.
