Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT Tapping) For Family Stress

Posted on December 4, 2021 by Beth AndersonFebruary 4, 2022

Class Overview: Family Dynamics are Complicated!

Are you already feeling stressed, overwhelmed, nervous, anxious, or sad thinking about the family get-togethers? Do you spend time thinking about the time you are supposed to spend (or not spend) with family? Is there conflict, expectations, and unwritten rules about how you need to engage with others?

Perhaps your stress is caused by the loss of a family member or the feeling you are not really included in the family unit. Perhaps you struggle about visiting (or not) extended family or in-laws. You have to consider a variety of aspects including: schedules, holiday child-custody, religious obligations, gift-giving, political conflicts, and health concerns.

In this four-week course you will learn how to:

Explore the source of the exact mechanisms that create stress for you (these are probably different and deeper than you think!)
Learn quick and easy techniques to neutralize emotional situations for yourself (even before they happen!)
Gain confidence and clarity around family dynamics and the role you play
Soothe the past hurts caused by family
Release a variety of feelings including overwhelm, anger, overwhelm, self-doubt, and anxiousness as they happen.
Overcome grief and loss when you feel “not part of” the family unit or acutely feel the loss of a member who has left.

These classes were recorded in November and December and have some emphasis on how to navigate family during the holidays. However, these classes not only apply year round, but the ideas and applications can be applied to any relationship or interpersonal stressors in your life, whether at work, with friends, or in your partnership.

Office Hours & Other Support

As part of this class, you have access to office hours with Dawn. What does that mean? About twice a month, Dawn will be online via zoom in a public format to answer questions for any of her program or class participants (this means you!) This is not a private session, and not a place for you to divulge confidential information, but instead is an opportunity for you to join a community over zoom, learn from other participant’s questions about EFT and tapping, as well as to ask your own questions. Sometimes there will be multiple people online, sometimes there will be only you. No appointment is necessary, and you don’t have to stay for the whole session (or join right on time.)

You can get help with Setup Statements, ask questions about a topic in class, get support if an issue feels too overwhelming or isn’t seeming to resolve, and so on. Bring any question that pops up about Emotional freedom techniques. You can access the calendar Here. To make sure Dawn gets through all questions, she may limit the time she spends with each individual. Be patient and curious, and she will get to your questions as fast as possible. The calendar is also visible at the bottom of this class page. Make sure it is showing in your time zone.

In class one you learn how to use the powerful tool of Emotional Freedom Techniques tapping. You learn how to structure and do tapping for yourself, and get to practice with a quick tap along. I ask you to start working with future potential events that could create stress for you and/or your family system.

Class 2 Video

In class 2 we explore family roles and how they can be shifted by using Emotional Freedom Techniques tapping. We discuss cycles of belief and results, as well as how to navigate family expectations and obligations with grace and strength.

Class 2 Audio

Class 3 Video

In this EFT for Family Stress Class, we look at what OUR triggers, sensitivities, and beliefs are. How does what we learned before age 7 influence how we react to others? Can we also step back and have compassion and empathy for why others are acting the way they are? This class allows us to uncover what prevents us from having choice and calm in our reactions to others.

Class 3 Audio

Class 4 Video

In Class 4 we explore coping with change as well as the emotions of grief, loss, and loneliness. Grief comes from many life changes including death, relationship breaks, tradition changes, and being isolated.

Is It Over? When to Stay in or End my Relationship

When we are in the middle of a relationship, it can be hard to decide if the relationship suits you anymore. Together we explore the toughest of questions. It’s probably the question that you are already thinking about all the time anyway.

Are you in a relationship that’s causing you more pain than joy? Are you asking yourself when to end it already? You know that you love or at least loved your partner/husband/wife but you are now drowning in a sea of never-ending problems.

Are you living a life of frustration, exhaustion and hopelessness, interrupted on rare occasions by moments of connection that offer you a fleeting sense of hope that maybe we can make this work? Do you avoid honest conversations with your family or friends so that they don’t have the chance to ask you how your relationship is going?

Is It Over? is your course of action when you know that you just can’t take it anymore.

EFT for Family Stress

Family Dynamics are Complicated!

Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, nervous, anxious, or sad thinking about a family event in the past or in the future? Do you spend time thinking about the time you are supposed to spend (or not spend) with family? Is there conflict, expectations, and unwritten rules about how you need to engage with others?

Perhaps your stress is caused by the loss of a family member or the feeling you are not really included in the family unit. Perhaps you struggle about visiting (or not) extended family or in-laws. You have to consider a variety of aspects including: schedules, holiday & event child-custody, religious obligations, gift-giving, political conflicts, and health concerns. Furthermore, remembering events and holidays of the past confirm and reinforce your strong emotions.

Or instead you wish that you were excited, looking forward to time together, feeling like the other people honor and accept and love you no matter what. That you are accepted and welcomed.

In this four-week digital course with personal support you will learn how to:

Explore the source of the exact mechanisms that create stress for you (these are probably different or deeper than you think!)
Learn quick and easy techniques to neutralize emotional situations for yourself (even before they happen!)
Gain confidence and clarity around family dynamics and the role you play
Soothe the past hurts caused by family
Release a variety of feelings including overwhelm, anger, overwhelm, self-doubt, and anxiousness as they happen.
Overcome grief and loss when you feel “not part of” the family unit or acutely feel the loss of a member who has left.

EFT Tapping for Cravings and Compulsions Series

Are there foods you crave? Do you compulsively eat or drink things when you are bored, scared, restless, or feeling vulnerable? Perhaps your goal is to lose weight, change your diet, or have more control. If you are ready for a change, this class is for you.

EFT tapping for cravings and compulsions thumbnail

Cravings, compulsions, and overeating can come from many sources. Some of us eat for protection and safety. Some of us eat or drink certain things because they remind us of loved ones or happy times. Sometimes we eat because we are bored, scared, avoiding something, or because we were taught not to let food go to waste.

In this 4-week class, you will:

Explore emotions that prevent you from being able to make choices around your eating and drinking habits.
Explore the emotions that your beloved foods contain or replace
Reduce cravings
Regain a sense of well-being and reduce stressors that create the sense of need
Explore the core reasons why we are challenged to lose weight or change our diet permanently
Let go of guilt and shame that may be linked to your habits or choices

We will also explore how to regain a sense of well-being in our own bodies. After all, stress can impact our hormonal systems and create a sense of need. Our brains can trick us into thinking we need to eat more to be satiated, to be safe, or to feel love. All of this can be healed using EFT tapping.

As a bonus: the second class + included handout features powerful options to break sugar cravings from Beth Schupanitz. Beth is a Registered Nutrition Consultant and Nutrition Response Testing Practitioner from Inspiring Health Solutions.

Not only is tapping (a.k.a. Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT) helpful for creating powerful connections and relationships, but these basic techniques can be applied to all emotional and stressful areas of your life.

Cutting Cravings & Compulsions Using EFT Tapping Class Series

Posted on November 14, 2021 by Beth AndersonMarch 4, 2023

Class Overview: Cravings, compulsions, and overeating can come from many sources. Some of us eat for protection and safety. Some of us eat or drink certain things because they remind us of loved ones or happy times in our lives.

Sometimes we eat because we are bored, scared, avoiding something else, or because we were taught not to let food go to waste.

We will also explore how to regain a sense of well-being in our own bodies. After all, stress can impact our hormonal systems and create a sense of need for foods and drinks that make us feel better. Our brains can trick us into thinking we need to eat more to be satiated, to be safe, or to feel love. All of this can be shifted using EFT tapping.

Class 1

In the first class we explore working with one particular food to reduce cravings. Make sure you have an item (food, drink, technology, etc) you crave or are compulsive about.

Your Homework for next week: –Tap using the craving procedure on your own item daily for at least three days –Start tapping every time you think of or encounter the item, using either technique –Notice beliefs, fears, emotions, memories, etc. that come up around your craving + write them down for later –If you do indulge, allow yourself to have self-acceptance and really sink into the experience.

We start with a 20-minute presentation from Beth Schupanitz from Inspiring Health Solutions who gives additional options to break sugar cravings.
