Have you seen butterflies flutter their vibrant-coloured wings?
Are you aware of their incredible tale of transformation that begins with struggle but ends with them in a joyful state.
Before they get the freedom to fly, they go through a process that strengthens their wings inside cocoons.
Do you also wish to experience a holistic transformation in your life, wherein you help people break free and soar like the butterflies?
Whether you are a professional therapist, or new to the world of energy medicine, healing, mental health and wellness, an Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) training with a certification from the globally accredited training organizations is an investment in 'You.'
What is EFT TAPPING Certification?
Once you decide to attend a formal EFT training from an EFT-certified trainer, you can take one of the following two paths:
- Using it only for your healing, growth, and transformation
- Empower yourself and others to heal, grow, and transform
The choice is yours!
If you choose the second option, and are passionate about upgrading your EFT skills to step up as a professional practitioner, a certification after the formal training is just right for you.
EFT certification is an attestation from an internationally accredited organization. It validates your EFT knowledge and proficiency, and grants you the permission to practice it professionally.
