All of my colleagues from various communities are cordially invited to an introduction to Emotional First-Aid, a wide umbrella of strategies and interventions that we all need, right now. Whether for yourself or those your serve, it's a crucial element to add to our collective toolboxes of healing, healing techniques.
Emotional First-Aid (EF-A) techniques are incredibly useful to quickly dismantle the body's natural threat response cycle by quickly addressing the somatic and limbic system's operations with wordless Tapping stimulations and movement algorithms derived from some of the most popular Energy Psychology and Tapping modalities. These were adapted and chosen for their ease of use and rapid relief.
The 90-minute online training will cover an interactive power-point of information and demonstrate and experiential introduction to using these techniques in addition to your other modalities. We'll talk about how EF-A might be used in times of emotional overwhelm, during an unexpected or shocking event, and as the event has just passed. In addition we'll discuss how clients during COVID may present in ways that do not allow them to fully access and take full advantage of your helping or therapeutic sessions; using Emotional First-Aid can correct that, and get things back on track quickly with little further impediment.
Although this is a free offering, we do appreciate your $20 donation; the Humanitarian Committee of ACEP (the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology) has been developing materials, resources and training for a wide range of community use across the globe. Your donations help make this effort possible to continue for all of our activities: materials to be created, printed, videoed, edited, and so forth, as well as our Mentoring program for providing community introductions to Emotional First-Aid and scholarship fund. (On this ACEs format I am simply collecting donations via a direct link to PayPal.com, directing the donation to this address: JondiWhitis@mac.com)
I will also be talking a bit more about the handbook co-created with Deborah Miller, PhD Together we developed Compassion In Action: Emotional First-Aid for Children; it contains a wide variety of these techniques and concepts in 3 easy to read and apply sections: Help Yourself, Help Others, and Teaching Others to Help. And it's of course good for anyone, but we sought to teach others to serve and nurture our most vulnerable, our children, to help them better navigate crisis and prevent traumatic event encoding, it's on Amazon, now
