✨Dear Students...

Exams coming up and I know how stressful this time can be. It's important to have regulation tools under your belt so you can clearly hear yourself and understand what you're in control of in this moment. Your nervous system.

Here’s how EFT (Tapping) can help you stress less and perform your best 👇

1️⃣ Calms the nervous system – lowers cortisol so the body moves from fight-or-flight to rest-and-focus mode.

2️⃣ Builds emotional regulation – helps manage panic, frustration, and self-doubt in real time.

3️⃣ Improves focus and performance – supports memory, clarity, and confidence during exams.

Backed by over 100+ clinical trials, EFT is an evidence-based tool that empowers students like yourself to self-regulate — anytime, anywhere.

🧠💛 Learn how to tap into calm and confidence before your next exam.

There is a link in my bio to learn what EFT Tapping is all about.

All the best for your exams! and remember...
You don’t have to have it all figured out, just take the next small step with intention.
Tap. Breathe. Refocus. Keep showing up.
Learning isn’t about being perfect — it’s about growing stronger, calmer, and more confident each day. 🌱

From myself, Dr Peta Stapleton

I’m thrilled to share that my latest research paper with Smiling Minds!
✨ Daily Meditation versus Emotional Freedom Techniques: A Pilot Australian Primary School Trial, has been officially published in the International Online Journal of Primary Education!

This study compared the effects of daily mindfulness meditation (using the Smiling Mind app) and EFT tapping on emotional and behavioural regulation in 5-year-old children over a three-week period.

Both interventions significantly improved self-regulation, showing that even short, daily practices can nurture emotional resilience in young learners. While no major changes were found in overall happiness or life satisfaction, it’s worth noting that participants were already reporting high levels of both before the study began 🌈

This research is part of a broader trial exploring how mindfulness and meditation can support wellbeing in school settings, helping children feel calmer, more balanced, and better equipped to handle life’s challenges.

A brand-new 2024 study has shown the power of EFT for first-time pregnant women in their 3rd trimester.

Before EFT, all 30 participants had severe anxiety. After just 5 days of EFT:
✨ 30% reported no anxiety
✨ 26.7% had mild anxiety
✨ 43.3% had moderate anxiety
✨ 0% remained in severe anxiety

This is such encouraging data for the perinatal space, adding to our growing evidence base that EFT is a safe, effective intervention across diverse populations.

💬 I'd love to hear from you:
➡️ Do you already use EFT with pregnant clients?
➡️ How might this research shape your practice?

Let’s keep building the case for EFT together. 💚

✨ “Health is all about coherent energy and harmony.” – Mary Sise ✨

At the heart of wellness is balance, not just in the body, but in the mind and emotions too. 🌿

In this episode, Mary Sise discusses the integration of spirituality in therapy and the importance of addressing trauma before introducing spiritual concepts. She explains the process of soul weaving, which involves bringing the client's present self back to their younger self to heal and integrate fragmented aspects. This process allows clients to develop a loving relationship with themselves and access suppressed emotions. Sise emphasizes the significance of working with a trained practitioner when dealing with trauma and chronic health issues.

✨ As therapists, we know stress relief is only the surface. Clinical EFT goes deeper — activating key brain regions like the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and hippocampus to regulate emotions, reprocess memories, and release physical tension.

From the Basic Recipe for everyday anxiety to advanced methods like Tell the Story, Chasing the Pain, and 9-Gamut, EFT offers flexible techniques you can tailor to each client’s needs.

💡 Whether you’re supporting trauma recovery, stress regulation, or somatic release, EFT provides a safe, evidence-based framework.
