Psychotherapist, founding EFT Master, and bestselling author Carol Look joins Shannon to demystify Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)—aka “tapping.” Carol explains why opening the “file” (naming the real stressor), tapping specific acupoints, and then layering gratitude can calm the fight-or-flight response and create lasting behavior change. Shannon shares her own session experience, and together they explore safety in the nervous system, why “positive thinking” isn’t enough, and practical targets anyone can use to start tapping today.
