Dissolving Stress: When stressed, our nervous system gets flooded with hormones like cortisol creating overwhelm meaning it is difficult to show up as the person we want to be in our lives. Through a range of counselling strategies, we can allow the patterns of stress in your body to slowly unravel as you feel seen and witnessed in your experience. My position is to hold safety within the relationship.
Unraveling Patterns: Negative experiences can create ingrained psychological patterns in our nervous system. These patterns can lead to us recreating similar situations or responses. As we learn the way patterns present in our lives and relationships, this gives us power to intervene and grow in compassion towards ourselves.
Compassion and New Perspectives: As the emotional intensity around a pattern subsides, we can begin to see the situation with more clarity and identify healthier responses. This shift in perspective allows for forgiveness, both of ourselves and others, fostering a sense of empowerment and freedom from the past.
The exact science behind EFT is still being explored, but some theories suggest it works by:
Desensitizing the Nervous System: By tapping on acupressure points while focusing on the issue, we may be desensitizing the amygdala, the part of the brain that processes fear and emotions. This allows the nervous system to shift out of a fight-or-flight state and return to a calmer balance.
Integration: Tapping may help integrate emotional experiences with more logical parts of the brain. This integration allows for a more holistic understanding of the situation, facilitating emotional healing and growth.
Overall, EFT tapping can be a powerful tool for managing stress, dismantling negative patterns, and promoting self-compassion, forgiveness, and new perspectives. While it can be done independently, seeking guidance from a certified EFT practitioner can enhance the process and address deeper issues.
