Finally, I succumbed to that nagging thought in the back of my head … ’what about your emotional internal baggage; it's a burden, and it's toxic?’. That was a scary contemplation. There were places I just didn’t want to go.

Months earlier I had printed off an Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) script more commonly known as tapping. It was sitting amongst the pile of other research gathering dust when it caught my eye.

​

I read it thinking ‘this is too weird to help' but I gave it a go anyway.

​

I had nothing to lose. I had tried meditation, yoga, followed supposed 'gurus' on healing, but nothing was really cutting the mustard.  From here, I got my hands on a book and started working some ‘magic’. That’s how it felt.  I started on some aches and pains and everyday stresses. I got in touch with a practitioner who held my hand through some of my ‘bigger’ stuff that was too scary for me to do alone. I was no longer fighting and swimming against the current; I began to be in flow, finding hope, trust and a future.

​

That was it! I felt and saw the changes in my mind and body. I had to know more and so started my journey to become a certified EFT Tapping practitioner. Little did I know that EFT was the vehicle for me to transform my thoughts, emotions and beliefs: my health and my life.

​

I have choices now. How I respond to what life offers me, how I see the world, how I treat and talk to myself. My mind is no longer running the show. My body and my heart have the biggest, loudest voices.

I have ‘tapped’ into the mind body heart connections to see the choices I always had. 

​

My choice to lovingly connect my mind and body means I now live my life, my way. My gratitude, love, joy and wonder buckets are replenished regularly with my grandchildren, walks along the beach or in nature, riding my favourite paths,  friends, exploring our diverse planet or working with clients.
