Wellbeing Tightrope For anyone Balancing on the Tightrope of Life
The tightrope has evolved into a framework for anyone facing a number of pressures and responsibilities. Or perhaps you have a goal or dream that requires a change process and this can create a tightrope situation. The aim is that…
- reflecting on your goals and the factors that support you can increase resilience
- the framework acknowledges past experiences and current pressures that can make achieving your goal more difficult
- you can explore your qualities and strengths and see patterns in the behaviours that are unhelpful
- by utilising Emotional Freedom Technique (also known as ‘tapping’) you can clear limiting beliefs and create a space for healing

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
The Wellbeing version of the Tightrope includes Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) practice. EFT was created by Gary Craig in the 1990s after working with Dr Roger Callahan, who created Thought Field Therapy. Gary describes EFT as a psychological version of accupuncture.
EFT is also known as ‘tapping’ because it involves tapping with the finger tips on meridian points around the head, face and upper body to shift your energy system. The process involves talking through the problem until the energey around the problem shifts towrads release.
Tapping can calm anxiety and stress and can address a range of physical and emotional health concerns. EFT is effective at addressing past traumas to support a journey toward recovery.
An EFT tapping script is included in the workbook, along with an image of where the tapping points are on the face and head.
You can create your own scripts based on any problem or pressure you are facing - keep tapping until you feel a shift or release.
This has been the magic wand for my wellbeing improvement journey!
