Tap, Taste, Heal: Use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to Eat Joyfully and Love Your Body

Product Description

A trained whole foods chef, food and body image coach, and certified Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) practitioner offers a step-by-step guide to using the simple yet powerful technique of Tapping to help you get off the diet rollercoaster, forgive yourself and your body, and truly heal your relationship with food so you can enjoy the nourishment that is your birthright. For many people who struggle with food, mindful eating alone is not the answer. By teaching the neurological repatterning tool of Tapping, natural foods chef and mindful eating coach Marcella Friel will help you transform the stressful circumstances and mistaken beliefs that have spawned less-than-ideal eating behaviors to re-discover the nourishment that is your birthright so that food can find its rightful place in your life. Sometimes called emotional acupressue, Tapping (also known as Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT) is an energy-healing based practice which uses gentle self-tapping on points of the body and statements similar to affirmations to short-circuit harmful patterns and imprinting. While Tapping can certainly help you lose weight, it will also help you to accept and honor your own body. Besides clear instructions on Tapping techniques that make it easy for you to begin practicing right away, Marcella explores the many other factors, from the multi-billion dollar diet industry to the way our industrialized food is produced to the emotional currents underlying trauma around food, that have caused so many people to need healing around eating and body image. Tap, Taste, Heal offers written tapping scripts, links to online tapping script audios, and links to online tapping video demonstrations as well as cooking demonstrations for key healing foods. The author is certified in Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT); is a certified natural foods chef (Natural Gourmet Institute, NYC); and teaches online and at retreats. She has cooked at or directed the kitchens at Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia (director Pema Ch dr n), Shambhala Mountain Center in Red Feather Lakes, Colorado, and Spirit Rock Meditation Center.A trained whole foods chef, food and body image coach, and certified Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) practitioner offers a step-by-step guide to using the simple yet powerful technique of Tapping to help you get off the diet rollercoaster, forgive yourself and your body, and truly heal your relationship with food so you can enjoy the nourishment that is your birthright.
