Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) or Tapping for Students

Some simple yet effective EFT tools will be taught and modeled. If you wish to help students face their fears, calm their anxiety and enhance their capacity to focus, Tapping is a great tool to teach. This session will provide some new tools to help students who are sometimes dysregulated to learn how to calm their nervous system and be more available to learn. It's a great addition to Brain Gym techniques. This session could be beneficial for Division 1 and Division 2 teachers. Emotional Resilience can be taught!
