EFT Foundations Workshop(Level One Plus)
Emotional Freedom Techniques forms the core of my practice and I can't imagine being without it. EFT is a people-helper's multi-purpose tool - a simple, easy-to-use and respectful way of helping almost anyone with almost any issue. In these two days of practical training I will teach you how to quickly and simply calm your client's (or your own) anxiety, dispell the emotion of disturbing memories, quell addictive cravings and help release the emotional tension held in physical symptoms.

This is a highly praised practical and in-depth weekend of EFT training designed by an EFT Master and experienced trainer for all therapists and people helpers, indeed for all who are curious about EFT and want to help themselves or others. My aim is to build your skill and confidence with EFT through practical hands on experience so that right you are able get going and incorporate EFT into your practice.
You build the foundation by learning the basic skills and then the application to anxiety, traumatic memory, and physical symptoms. After the workshop you have time to practice and to build your skills before returning for the further weekend of EFT training that completes the EFT Level Two standard of eligibility for AAMET Practitioner.
This course is open to all and is particularly for therapists, health workers and all people-helpers who want more than a one day introduction. However if you are not a therapist and don't want to become one please don't be put off. Some of the people I have trained who are most effective with EFT have no previous training or experience in therapy.
As a therapist what I love about EFT is that:
- EFT is SIMPLE. This is not a "clever dick" therapy that requires the mastery of complex language patterns or indirect ways of manipulating others. Anyone from 8 (or younger) to 80 (or older) can learn how to use EFT to help themselves and others.
- EFT is RESPECTFUL. You don't have to ask intrusive personal questions or to ask someone to tell you a story they would rather keep private, indeed often I have helped someone and I still don't know what it was all about. And you don't have to ask them to shut their eyes or to believe in anything.
- EFT is EMPOWERING. When you help someone with EFT you also teach them EFT and they take the tool with them to use themselves for whatever issue they choose.
- EFT is FLEXIBLE and is suitable for one to one therapy or coaching, as a self help tool , for group work and is also effective for use in telephone sessions. EFT can be used by both children and the elderly.
We people-helpers all need a means to release our own stress and disturbances. Even if you choose not to introduce EFT to your clients, having the skill to balance your own emotional energy is sure to enhance your effectiveness and well-being.
Training Approach
In this small group EFT training the tool of EFT is taught through live demonstration and hands on practical experience. This is a practical rather than theoretical training. I do not teach "how it works" rather I teach "how to do it". Modern science has not yet caught up with these phenomena: there are competing explanations and these will be referred to during the course. My aim is not to ask you to believe in anything that I say but to facilitate sufficient practical experiences for you to draw your own conclusions from what you see, hear and experience yourself.
I teach using the ABC method and remain true to Gary Craig's original formulation of EFT and follow his approved content guidelines. The workshops cover a variety of approaches to emotional and physical problems. For those familiar with the Human Givens approach to emotional health, this workshop is taught within the context of the Human Givens organising ideas and models.
To attend this EFT workshop you do not require previous knowledge or experience with EFT and if you are already familiar with EFT you will build on and go beyond what you thought possible. This programme gives participants the skills and know-how to confidently incorporate EFT into their work with others right from the start.
The syllabus follows the teaching of the Association for the Advancement of Meridian Energy Techniques and the EFT Foundation workshop covers:
- Introducing EFT and the Discovery Statement
- the Basic Recipe and shortcuts
- psychological reversal
- aspects and the importance of being specific
- handling emotional intensity
- The Movie Technique
- using EFT for aches and pains
- using EFT for bad memories
- using EFT for chocolate cravings
- what to do 'when it doesn't work'
Gary Craigs EFT Workshops on DVD are an excellent home study follow up to consolidate your learnings. Many people find themselves returning to the filmed sessions over and over again and learning more and more each time.
