EFT Emotional Freedom Technique: Nervous System Regulation

In this episode of The Connected Community Podcast, host Nicky Yazbeck welcomes Amy McNally to explore the practice of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), often referred to as “tapping.” Together, they trace the origins of EFT, explain its scientific foundation, and highlight how this simple yet profound practice combines ancient Chinese acupressure with modern psychology to regulate the nervous system and reduce stress.

 

The conversation offers listeners a direct, hands-on experience with tapping, guiding them through a live practice designed to ease stress and anxiety in real time. Nicky and Amy also discuss how perspective shifts can unlock deeper healing and lasting change, illustrating EFT’s accessibility and versatility in everyday life.
