Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
Do you have an emotional elastic band holding you back?
- How strong is it?
- How far does it let you go before it drags you back with an almighty twang?
- How satisfying would life be without it?
The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system preventing the energy flowing through the meridians. EFT can release negative emotion (the elastic band), especially:
- Fear
- Hurt
- Anger
- Frustration
- Disappointment
- Guilt
- Inadequacy
- Overload
- Loneliness
EFT can also eliminate deeper emotional issues caused by:
- Trauma - accidents, injuries, physical/emotional/sexual abuse etc
- Phobias - fear of flying, heights, driving, spiders, dentists etc
- Addictions - drugs, alcohol, substance misuse etc
- Cravings - desire for specific food, drink etc
EFT is unique in that the practitioner works on the emotion, not the causes of the emotion

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
NLP is a modern therapy that has enhanced many lives. It especially helps you to:
- Identify why you are unique
- Build rapport with yourself and others
- Develop behavioural flexibility to make whatever changes you need when you need them
- Utilise your senses to better appreciate the world around you
- Achieve outcomes that are well-formed
- Feedback on whatever changes you make
A major benefit of NLP is most interventions are content free - you do not have to tell a story evoking emotional issues from the past
