FARMERS STRESS, HELP WITH CHRONIC PAIN, MENS MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT

Together we will use EFT Tapping in a slow and safe way to address your stress as a farmer and help with chronic pain.

If you are a man who has been wanting a space to feel safe and heard, you are welcome here. In our sessions you will get to be yourself, without fear of judgment or jeopardising your privacy.

I am passionate about helping fellow farmers and those living rurally with:

Men’s Mental Health Support

I come from a male-dominated family, so you are welcome to feel comfortable with me—you can even curse if you want to. I take care to create a down-to-earth environment where you will feel heard. And I always respect your privacy.

I can see through the men I interact with that they are under-represented and almost ‘left behind’ when it comes to having someone listen and offer support for men’s mental health.

EFT is different than what you would expect from ‘therapy’ where you would need to sit and dwell on your feelings for an hour. EFT offers a simple and faster way to help you stop worrying about the things you bring into a session and move on. 

EFT uses your own words and your own hands to tap on acupressure points and relieve the tension you feel. At first, you might feel silly and that’s OK. But we think you’ll be surprised at how quickly thoughts, feelings and sensations can shift with EFT and how much this can calm down your life.

Farmer’s Stress

Not only will we be working on lowering stress during our sessions, but I will also teach you some easy ways to manage your own stress while you work on the farm, every day!

On my own journey, I started to notice that the benefits of all my EFT sessions were adding up. I became less reactive when something happened and I was stressed on the farm. You may find that you even stop chucking things at the cows when they’re not moving for you!

We gain a lot by being able to stay calm, even in frustrating situations, we can become better at problem solving and using our time wisely.

Help with Chronic Pain

We can work with pain a couple of different ways in an EFT session. If you need help with chronic pain during our session, we may use a technique called ‘chasing the pain’ to bring you some relief.

We would also explore the emotions that are present around your pain and what happened in your life round the time that your pain started showing up.

Sometimes, it can be as simple as acknowledging the feeling and then suddenly realising that you don’t feel that way anymore. This was my experience when I finally got help for my chronic pain which had lasted for two years before finally finding relief using EFT. 

My perspective on what it means to be healthy and well:

I worked in the health system for 36 years and for the last twenty of those years, as a Clinical Coder in the Classification of Disease and Health Information Services. I feel that our health system is broken and doesn't focus on getting people well.

Rather, it focuses on making people’s symptoms disappear with medications while ignoring the root cause and avoiding a holistic whole-body approach. This approach doesn’t lead to true healing because the body is like a mini universe where everything is connected. EFT is a powerful tool that can address our bodies, thoughts and emotions all at once. 

There is no miracle cure for anyone, but EFT is a simple, practical way to start putting healing back into your own hands. I will show you how to use EFT for yourself, take your power back and support your evolution to emotional freedom. 

Many of us are used to giving our power away to other people or pills, expecting them to ‘fix’ us, but EFT gives us the power to feel better, using our own hands and words.

When given the right tools, our bodies know exactly what to do. EFT can help us to gain back our trust in ourselves and our body’s healing abilities.
