In places where physical activity is a substantial part of the school day, rates of learning difficulties are lower. In countries where kids are required to sit still for most of the day, the rates are much higher. Childhood physical and emotional needs and experiences are not often considered when designing the school curriculum, although there is a movement towards the creation of ‘trauma informed’ educational systems.

Adversity can be overcome

Dr. Gabor Mate wrote the following in his book, Scattered Minds: The Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorder:

“Throughout the human lifespan, there remains a constant two-way interaction between psychological states and the neurochemistry of the frontal lobes, a fact that many doctors do not pay enough attention to. One result is the overreliance on medications in the treatment of mental disorders. Modern psychiatry is doing too much listening to Prozac and not enough listening to human beings; people’s life histories should be given at least as much importance as the chemistry of their brains. The dominant tendency is to explain mental conditions by deficiencies of the brain’s chemical messengers, the neurotransmitters.”

EFT Tapping is a highly effective method to calm our nervous systems. We can, with Matrix Reimprinting, learn to positively reframe the meanings we have given to those past stressful circumstances that keep us on ‘high alert’. We no longer need to get triggered, particularly when faced with no immediate danger.

Establishing healthy boundaries, AND STICKING TO THEM, is an essential part in preventing future adversity, while dealing with situations that currently exist by significantly reducing the symptoms of anxiety, depression and many learning difficulties. Most of us were not taught how to set and stick to healthy boundaries but the good news is that we can learn. Let me show you how. 

Learning new ways to deal with conflict by using Non-Violent Communication skills, can also help to reduce anxiety, depression and learning difficulties.

Feeling powerless?

Initially, many EFT recipients felt powerless to make any changes in their lives, but soon came to realize that positive change IS possible.

It is important to understand that our emotional and physical responses to stress were taught, or modelled, by parents, teachers, and other caregivers. As children, we had little choice or power to do things differently. Our childhood traumas have defined us.

As adults, we CAN choose to learn how to release the emotional and physical stress imprinted during traumatic childhood events. We CAN reframe those limiting beliefs which  cause our physical and psychological issues.

We CAN learn healthy ways to negotiate demanding situations, usually with remarkable, long-lasting results, (and healthier relationships). We CAN live lives that are much more satisfactory, and even fun!

It would be my privilege to support you in releasing your old and limiting stories, stresses, fears, anger, resentments and grief…

I love helping people to discover new and positive ways to live life.
