Using the Body for Inner Healing: EFT with Mitch Gainey

Growing up in an evangelical church, Mitch Gainey had some powerful experiences of the divine. However, coming into his identity as a gay man didn’t leave him much room outside of the attempts to “pray the gay away.” Today Mitch will share his story of emerging from the shame he had internalized to the freedom he found on his path to healing. Much of that healing journey happened in and through his body, ultimately resulting in Mitch becoming a coach and counselor himself. We’ll talk about one of his favorite embodied practices, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique, also known as tapping), and how this practice taps into your body’s hardwiring so it can process, integrate, and ultimately heal itself.To learn more about Mitch’s work, visit www.mitchgainey.com._______________________WELCOME TO SPIRITUAL WANDERLUST.Contemplation.
