Tapping Basics with Christine Del Negro

Christine Del Negro is a certified EFT practitioner and life coach.  She uses EFT and other coaching strategies to help her clients let go of what is keeping them stuck and cultivate more joy in their lives.

This workshop will focus on EFT.  EFT, emotional freedom technique, or tapping, is a powerful holistic healing technique that has been proven to effectively reduce stress by bringing down the flight or flight reaction in the body.  It’s based on the combined principles of ancient Chinese acupressure and modern psychology.  By reducing stress and calming your nervous system, you are better able to think clearly about a situation and take action.

Every experience that we have produces a physical and emotional reaction in our body.  Negative experiences often produce stress and cause us to try to avoid similar situations whether on a conscious or subconscious level.   When our body and mind are tense, our brain goes into fight, flight or freeze mode.   Our brain believes that we are under attack and focuses on keeping us alive.  This can make it challenging to think clearly, stay calm or make rational decisions.  Our negative association with the issue continues and the cycle repeats itself.

In this workshop participants will learn what the tapping points are and the most effective ways to tap, how a typical tapping sequence is set up and why, and experience the tapping process several times.  We will start by tapping together to relax and be more present in our bodies.   There will also be opportunities for individual coaching for anyone that feels comfortable.

Participants will also receive a complimentary tapping meditation so that they can try tapping on their own.
