In this episode we explore the science of Tapping with Fiona Schipke. Tapping, a method that many adults and children alike have found helpful in managing their emotions, has become more popular recently and we thought it was time to find out more.    Fiona has a Diploma in Counselling and is a Certified Practitioner of the Emotional Freedom Technique - usually referred to as EFT or Tapping.   Fiona has worked in various fields over the course of her life including the legal field and in music, teaching and performing on piano, which she still does on a part-time basis.  However since her late teens, a common thread in her life has been a deep interest in people, why they feel and act the way they do, and a fascination with all types of mental health.   Fiona devoured books that went deep into eating disorders, relationships, anxiety, personality disorders - anything that looked like it would shed some light on the "Why" of people's behaviours and provide some answers.     In 2007, Fiona was given an EFT Manual and realised this was a huge piece of the healing puzzle she had been searching for.   She completed the training to become a Practitioner and continues to work, study and deepen her skills in this field today.    Contact Fiona: http://www.fionaschipke.com   Show note links: https://eftuniverse.com/community-resources/bookshelf/ http://www.eftuniverse.com/images/pdf_files/EFTMiniManual.pdf Science Of Tapping (2022) - https://www.petastapleton.com/science-of-tapping-2022 Tapping Q & A with Gene Monterastelli – Get the most out of tapping and EFT https://tappingqanda.com/
