Update: The Times We Live In – Covid and More
What a year we have been through, my friends. The world has changed drastically since I last offered my EFT International Mentoring Groups. My heart goes out to all of my fellow EFT Practitioners for the hardships you may be going through. We are all living through a very challenging time, in every corner of the globe. May your skill in the healing arts and the gift of EFT continue to support you and everyone you share it with as we continue to move through these challenges and heal from all we’ve been through.
THIS IS HOW MY MENTORING GROUPS WORK:
-
- Our 90 minute sessions are offered weekly for four weeks, plus one bonus session (after a week off). You can sign up for the entire series to complete mentoring requirements, or if space permits, you can choose single sessions as a part of your annual mentoring.
- Our time will be 7 pm NY time, which also works for Australia and New Zealand (next day).
- These sessions will include acknowledgement of what is going on in our world. We will, of course, allow time for each participant to bring in their specific mentoring needs for their EFT practice. And with each session, we will keep in mind the broader context of these times we are living through.
THE PANDEMIC: This on-going threat presents a level of stress and challenge to our nervous systems that needs our attention and care. We will talk about EFT for self-care during this time as well as how to assist clients. We will also discuss ways that tapping can help us maintain a healthy immune system.
RACIAL JUSTICE AND OTHER INEQUALITIES: In addition, as healing arts practitioners, we all have a responsibility to understand social and racial justice issues. Here in the US, it is a critical question at this time and one that is relevant around the world as well.
To be trauma-informed EFT practitioners, we need to understand all we can about both personal trauma, collective trauma like the pandemic, and ancestral and racial trauma and the complex affects on the nervous systems of all of us. In these mentoring sessions, I will share what I have been learning about the vital necessity of somatic, body-centered approaches to bring healing to the many layers of trauma encoded in us all. It is important to bring healing to personal trauma and life challenges and also see these in the context of the broader collective traumas and challenges.
FAST TRACK MENTORING GROUP SESSIONS
The mentoring groups scheduled for March-April, 2021, are now full. The information below shows you how the groups are run. Please email me if you would like to be notified for the next series. Thank you!
Details: Two options: the Tuesday group or the Wednesday group. We will have four 90 minute mentoring sessions, which complete the 6 hours required for EFTi renewal. I also offer a 5th bonus session as a make-up session (or a freebie).
Who Can Attend? These groups are offered for EFTi Accredited Certified Practitioners and Advanced Practitioners only. I don’t currently offer a mentoring group for EFTi Trainer-level practitioners (M.O.T. or M.T.O.T), though such a group may be offered in the future.
If you have done some hours elsewhere or plan to, it may possible to sign up for one, two or three sessions instead of the whole series. Please email me to let me know which evening you wish to attend. Per EFT International guidelines, space is limited to 8 participants per group. You can reach me at bettymh.vt@gmail.com.
DATES:
Tuesday Group: March 23 and 30, and April 6 and 13; Bonus session April 27 ⇠ the Tuesday group is now full
Wednesday Group: March 24 and 31, and April 7 and 14; Bonus session April 28 ⇠ the Wednesday group is now full
Time: 7:00 pm New York Time (6:00 pm Central, 5:00 pm Mountain, 4:00 pm Pacific US times)
This time also works for Australia and New Zealand, daytime on the next day.
Duration: 90 minutes
Format: We use the Zoom videoconferencing service. You can join via the internet on a computer (or smartphone or tablet), or you can join by calling on a phone (audio only). You will receive an email invitation which gives you the link to join the videoconference on-line as well as the phone number if joining by phone.
Cost: I’m still offering my special rate of $120 for the package of four sessions. Places are reserved as the requests are received for a maximum of 8 participants in each 90-min. session. The website will be updated to show availability on any given date. (see box below). After signing up, email me your choice, either the Tuesday or Wednesday group. If you wish to sign up for a single session (or 2 or 3) at $35 per session, please email me before registering and paying, to assure availability on the date(s) you wish to attend. I allow 1-2 spots per class for single sessions, first come first serve. Feel free to email me with questions: bettymh.vt@gmail.com
What to Expect: These groups become an enriching experience of community and sharing. Not only do participants discuss their practices, difficult cases, questions and concerns – we also share our ideas, what is working for us, resources we have discovered and more.
As healing arts practitioners, we can become a little isolated. This form of mentoring/supervision can be an excellent way to connect, be supported, and support others.
Anyone who has to miss one of the sessions can make it up by attending the Bonus session. Anyone who attends all of the first four sessions is invited to attend the Bonus session for free, provided that there are open spaces. And if you paid for the package but cannot attend 4 of the 5 sessions, you will have credit for your missed session(s) to use for future groups.
Both groups are now full. Please email me if you’d like to be on the list to be notified about the next series.
