dr shena young will lead us in a workshop exploring practical tools for nourishing our nervous systems
Tap in
During this workshop, dr young will be introducing the emotional freedom technique known as "tapping." Tapping is a healing method that uses acupressure points and energy meridians in the body to release trapped emotion and physical pain. Participants will learn a tapping sequence that can be done on their own to reduce stress, move through limiting beliefs, improve clarity, and soothe the nervous system.
