🌟EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is often simply called "tapping". 🌟

It is a mind-body stress-reduction practice that combines ancient Chinese acupressure with modern psychology.

Think of it as a form of emotional acupuncture, but without the needles.

Instead of needles, you use your fingertips to gently tap on specific meridian (energy) points on your body while focusing on an emotional issue or physical discomfort.

What is Tapping and How Does It Work?
When you experience stress, anxiety, or emotional pain, your body often goes into a "fight-or-flight" response, flooding your system with stress hormones like cortisol.
Tapping helps interrupt this stress loop by :

🌟Calming the Amygdala: The physical sensation of tapping sends calming signals directly to the amygdala (the brain's emotional threat center), telling your nervous system that you are safe.

🌟 Shifts Focus: As you tap, you voice out loud what is bothering you (e.g., “Even though I feel anxious about this presentation…”), which helps process the emotion rather than suppressing it.

🌟Restores Balance: In traditional Chinese medicine, tapping helps clear energetic blockages in the body's meridians, restoring a balanced flow of energy.

Where Do You Tap? A question that I am asked alot.

A standard EFT sequence uses 9 key acupressure points on the face and upper body.
You generally use two or three fingers (index and middle fingers) and tap firmly but gently—about 5 to 7 times per point—while taking deep breaths.
Here is the typical order, moving from top to bottom:

🌟1. Side of Hand (SD) The fleshy outer edge of your hand | The side of either hand, opposite your pinky finger. This is where you usually start while stating your main setup phrase.

🌟2. Eyebrow (EB) The inner edge of the eyebrow. Right where the eyebrow starts, above the bridge of your nose.

🌟3. Side of the Eye (SE) The bone bordering the outside corner of the eye. On the bone, not directly on the eyeball.

🌟4. Under the Eye (UE) The bone under the eye About one inch below your pupil, right on the cheekbone.

🌟5. Under the Nose (UN) The spot between the nose and upper lip | Right in the small crease under your nose.

🌟6. Chin (Ch) The crease between your lower lip and chin Right in the indentation of the chin.

🌟7. Collarbone (CB) The junction where your sternum, collarbone, and first rib meet Make a "U" shape with your fingers just below the hard notch at the base of your throat, then move down and out about an inch.

🌟8. Under the Arm (UA) On the side of the body. About 4 inches below the armpit (roughly level with a bra strap or chest line).

🌟9. Top of the Head (TH) The crown of your head Right at the very top, center of your head.

A Quick 3-Step Guide to Trying EFT

🌟Identify the Issue: Pinpoint what is bothering you (e.g., “I am stressed about my workload”) and rate its intensity from 0 to 10

🌟The Setup Statement: While tapping continuously on the Side of Hand point, repeat a phrase out loud three times that acknowledges the problem while accepting yourself anyway:
"Even though I feel so stressed about this workload, I deeply and completely accept myself."

🌟 The Tapping Sequence: Go through points 2 through 9, tapping 5–7 times on each while saying a reminder phrase (like "this stress" or "so much pressure") at each point.

🌟Why I Chose EFT
My path to Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) actually started with a high dose of skepticism 😵‍💫!

One of my mentors was an EFT practitioner, and to be honest, I initially thought it was a bit like a cult 😵‍💫! Tapping on specific points of my body, while speaking out loud about what was wrong, felt completely strange and unfamiliar 😵‍💫.

Then came my second group session. Midway through, something unexpectedly shifted—the heavy feeling I’d been carrying simply lifted😌, and I suddenly didn't feel so sad anymore. That was my pivotal moment 🎉.

Experiencing that rapid shift firsthand changed everything for me.
Inspired by the profound impact it had on my own life, I went on to train as a practitioner. Today, I am proud to be an Accredited Advanced EFT Practitioner, helping others experience that exact same breakthrough and relief 🎉.

If this resonates with you, please get in contact with me ❤️.

💥Imposter Syndrone is harsh.
Have you ever felt like you’re winging it and everyone else has life figured out?
Imposter syndrome is so common, especially for people who care deeply about what they do.
EFT (tapping) is one of my favourite ways to soften that inner critic. With just a few minutes of tapping, you can calm the nervous system, quiet the, “I’m not good enough” voice, and reconnect with your actual abilities, which are more than you give yourself credit for.
If you’ve been doubting yourself lately, you’re not alone.
You don’t have to stay stuck in that feeling. EFT can help you shift it gently, one tap at a time.

✨ A little tapping truth bomb, which I’ve had to remind myself of lately…🤦‍♀️

When I don’t tap regularly, I feel it, not in a dramatic way just in that subtle, creeping sense of being a bit more overwhelmed, a bit more reactive, a bit less grounded in myself.

And it’s funny, because I know tapping works.
I teach it.
I see the shifts in my clients.
I’ve felt the benefits in my own body a thousand times.

But knowing isn’t the same as doing.

Sometimes I slip into being a “sayer” instead of a “do‑er.” 🤦‍♀️
I say I’ll tap later.
I say I’ll do a quick round before bed.
I say I’ll make space for it tomorrow.🤦‍♀️

And then tomorrow comes… and I feel the difference 😵‍💫.

The truth is: tapping only works when I actually tap.
Not think about it.
Not plan it.
Not intend to do it.
Do it.

So here’s my gentle nudge to myself — and maybe to you too:
✨ Tap when you feel the wobble.
✨ Tap when you feel the build‑up.
✨ Tap even when you feel “fine.”
✨ Tap because your nervous system deserves consistency, not just crisis‑management.

I’m choosing to be more of a do‑er again.
Because life feels better when I tap.
And I feel better when I show up for myself.

“Would You Be Interested…?”
I’ve been chatting with people who have felt stretched thin — overwhelmed, overloaded, and running on fumes.

I was thinking, if I created a 7‑Day Overwhelm & Stress Reset — something gentle, simple, and genuinely supportive — to help you breathe again, soften your nervous system, and feel more like yourself?

I’m imagining:
• short daily practices
• grounding tools
• emotional support
• journal prompts
• a personalised calm plan you can keep forever

Before I build it, I’d love to know…
Would you be interested in something like this?

If yes, comment I’m in so I can see if it’s something worth creating.

💫 EFT is basically my emotional support sidekick — like a tiny superhero🦸‍♀️ perched on my shoulder whispering, “Breathe… you’ve got this.”

Because honestly? There was a time when overwhelm and anxiety were running the show. Big plans? Cancelled. Fun things? Avoided. Joy? On the waiting list.

And then this weekend I found myself screaming Harry Styles lyrics 🎵in a crowd, living my best life, and I had this hilarious little realisation:

✨ Past me would’ve been at home in pyjamas pretending she didn’t like crowds.
✨ Present me was vibing, dancing, and fully THERE.
✨ EFT-me is unstoppable.

💫EFT has helped me calm the chaos, shrink the “what ifs,” and actually say YES to the things that make life feel good.

💫So tell me…
What big, delicious thing do you want — and what’s getting in your way?

💫Because if something’s holding you back, EFT is ready to roll up its sleeves and help you move through it.

🌿 My Brand Values
A slightly more “me” take on why my values matter

Right, so… brand values.
Not exactly the most exciting topic, but honestly, they’re the heartbeat of everything I do — in business and in life. They’re the reason clients feel safe with me.

And because I’m me, these values aren’t something I cooked up in a marketing meeting. They’re just… who I am.

✨ Compassion
I’m a big believer in meeting people gently — no judgement, no pressure, no “fixing”. Just real, human connection. The kind where someone finally feels understood and their whole nervous system goes, “Oh thank goodness.”

✨ Safety
If the body doesn’t feel safe, nothing shifts. So safety comes first, last, and everywhere in between. Whether I’m tapping with a client around stress or through overwhelm, I’m always creating a space where they can soften.

✨ Integrity
I’m honest, I’m clear, and I take the trust people place in me seriously. No fluff, no nonsense — just grounded, transparent support.

✨ Empowerment
I’m not here to be the hero of anyone’s story. I’m here to help people become the hero of their own. My job is to walk beside them, not in front.

✨ Humanity
I show up as a real person — imperfect, warm, and fully present. Healing is messy and beautiful and deeply human, and I honour that.

These values guide how I parent, how I work, how I communicate, and how I show up in the world. They’re not just part of my brand — they are my brand.

And if you’re here, reading this ramble with a cup of tea in hand, chances are these values matter to you too. Which makes me very grateful.

💫 In simple terms… this is what I do.💫

A lot of lovely people follow my page without fully knowing what I actually do.
So here it is, simply and honestly.

💫I help people who feel overwhelmed —
nurses, doctors, students, parents, carers, teachers, people juggling work stress, family stress, life stress, or just… everything.

💫The ones who are carrying too much.
The ones who feel foggy, stuck, anxious, or unable to make decisions because their nervous system is running on empty.

💫And I support them through EFT — a gentle, powerful way to calm the nervous system and the body, settle the mind, and bring you back into yourself.

💫Why do I do this?
Because everyone deserves to feel lighter, calmer, and more in control of their day.
Because when overwhelm softens, clarity returns.
Because feeling better shouldn’t be a luxury.

💫Simple.
This is what I do.
I help people feel calmer, clearer, and more themselves again.

💫If you’re curious about working with me or want support with overwhelm, I’m here.
