Brad\u2019s Bio:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brad Yates is known internationally for his creative (and often humorous) use of\u00a0Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) \u2013 also commonly referred to as Tapping. He was trained and certified at the\u00a0respected Hypnosis Motivation Institute in Tarzana, California, where he served\u00a0on staff. Combining this background with training in energy psychology and\u00a0various schools of thought in the area of personal growth and achievement, he\u00a0coaches groups and individuals in achieving greater success, health and\u00a0happiness in their lives. For several\u00a0years, he taught a weekly class using EFT and guided imagery for addiction recovery at Sacramento Drug\u00a0Court. He has also been a presenter at a number of events, including several\u00a0International Energy Psychology Conferences, all eleven years of the Tapping World Summit and Jack Canfield\u2019s Breakthrough to Success event, and has presented\u00a0teleseminars with The Secret stars Bob Doyle and Dr. Joe Vitale.<\/p>\n

Brad is the author of the bestselling children\u2019s book The Wizard\u2019s Wish, the\u00a0co-author of the bestseller Freedom at Your Fingertips, and a featured expert in\u00a0the film The Tapping Solution (along with Jack Canfield, Bob Proctor, Dr. Norman\u00a0Shealy and Dr. Bruce Lipton).<\/p>\n

According to Brad, why EFT\/Tapping works to improve mental health:<\/strong><\/p>\n

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Tapping \u2013 is a meridian-based energy therapy (opening up the flow of energy through these meridians by tapping strategically on them) developed by Gary Craig from the landmark discoveries of Dr. Roger Callahan. It is a simple technique based on acupuncture, which has been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine.\u00a0 It often provides rapid relief from physical-emotional issues (e.g. Trauma, PTSD, Phobias, Grief, Anger, Guilt, Anxiety, Addictive Cravings, Nightmares, Abandonment, Fear of Public Speaking, Fear of Flying, Love Pain, Depression, Pain, Headaches and much more).<\/p>\n

Research has shown that Tapping can dramatically lower stress.\u00a0 When we consider that most (if not all) of the emotional issues we struggle with are either caused by or worsened by stress, we can understand how calming the nervous system with Tapping can be so beneficial.\u00a0 Not only can it be used to reduce upsets that one might be experiencing in the moment, it can also help to alleviate the emotional residue of past events that can trigger upsets \u2013 even allowing us to reframe the events to facilitate greater peace of mind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
