🤚EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) tapping calms the nervous system by stimulating acupressure points while focusing on stress, which sends safety signals to the brain's fear center (amygdala), lowers cortisol, and shifts the body from "fight-or-flight" (sympathetic) to "rest-and-digest" (parasympathetic) mode, helping to process trauma and regulate emotions.
This dual approach of physical stimulation and cognitive focus helps reset the body's stress response, making it effective for anxiety, trauma, and emotional dysregulation, with research showing measurable reductions in stress hormones and anxiety symptoms.
Benefits for Nervous System Regulation:
* Reduces Anxiety & Stress: Helps manage symptoms of general anxiety, panic, and stress.
* Supports Trauma Healing: Allows processing of painful memories without becoming overwhelmed, beneficial for PTSD.
* Improves Emotional Regulation: Trains the body to respond to stressors with less intensity, leading to more balanced moods.
In essence, EFT acts as a "reset button," providing powerful cues of safety to an overactive nervous system, allowing it to move from survival mode back to a regulated, calm state.
🫴I'm excited to incorporate this technique in some of my future offerings ~ be on the look out !👀
