DESCRIPTION

In this episode, Tem is joined by Michelle Auton, an Assistant Head Teacher who discusses the benefits of EFT tapping and has practised mindfulness and EFT tapping over the last 8 years. Michelle talks about the importance of mindfulness and tapping and the positive effect it can have on students, and therefore their families.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Tapping has been proven to reduce cortisol levels, which are linked to stress.
  • Encourage the students to be the experts so that they are able to share the strategies with their parents.
  • 3-5 breathing. Breathing in for the count of 3 and breathing out for the count of 5.
  • Tapping can be used to refocus students and manage behaviours in the classroom.

BEST MOMENTS:

"Especially if you've got negative emotions"

"I zoned everybody else out and for 5 minutes I felt this peace inside me"

"I'm practising mindfulness everyday and I feel better in myself, I feel calm"
