OH. MY.GOD.
I knew this day would come!!! Ever since I discovered the powerful ability of EFT to change what most people believe is unchangeable and remove the limitations we all suffer with, I’ve been waiting patiently for the biohackers of the world to find EFT.
You see, I think I’m in a rather unique position to predict this particular co-mingling. I’m a holistic nutritionist that’s always had an interest in what some call the “meta-physical” meaning beyond the physical-whatever that may be. I studied Reiki, BodyTalk and eventually energy work with EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) to help myself and my clients deal with subconscious blocks, limiting beliefs and energetic barriers.
But, I’m also a personal trainer and a CrossFit trainer and I’m highly involved in paleo, ancestral and ketogenic eating. The biohackers like Dave Asprey and Tim Ferriss are regulars in this world and I’ve been following their work for years now.
So I knew the day would come when these intelligent guys that are always looking for the minimum effective dose of ANYTHING, and finding new ways to hack the human body and mind would EVENTUALLY stumble onto EFT. In my opinion, EFT is probably the most effective, fastest tool to overcome the subconscious, limiting beliefs that most of the world tries to CBT, exercise, eat and medicate it’s way out of.
You can imagine my delight last month when I saw that Tim Ferriss was interviewing none other than Gabor Maté! I had the great pleasure of being Dr. Maté’s victim volunteer at a keynote talk he gave at the Energy Psychology Conference in 2011 and I’ve followed his incredible work for years. In fact, it was Dr. Maté’s work that educated me on the real roots of addiction that I teach in my EFT practice. I could relate SO well when Tim got into a “therapy” session with Dr. Maté in this interview…ha, I feel your pain brother!
But the BEST part of the entire interview for me was when Tim began asking Dr. Maté for his suggestions on just what someone could do to alleviate the childhood trauma that he so eloquently described as being the crux of most major illness including addiction. When he listed “EFT tapping” as one of those tools I nearly started jumping up and down!
Have a listen for some sheer brilliance about addiction and the roots of ADD/ADHD as Tim and Dr. Maté explore this important topic!
As if THAT weren’t enough, just this past weekend I “accidentally” (I don’t really believe in accidents) found an ENTIRE episode on EFT on Dave Asprey’s Bulletproof Radio that had just been recorded! Yeah, baby..EFT just got exposure to MILLIONS of people that are interested in being their best selves and I couldn’t be happier about that.
EFT has been steadily growing for years now so I knew it was just a matter of time before these two worlds found each other and it feels like a turn in the tide for EFT and energy psychology!
Today I’m going to give a presentation to an entire school of kids on EFT and I know that it will make a difference for many of them. It may even change the course of their entire lives for the better. I’m honored and humbled to be part of a growing, powerful movement that has the ability to change our world.
Help me spread the word!
