Trauma-Informed EFT Study Circle

Bridging Trauma Theory with safe and effective EFT practice

COMBINING THE WISDOM OF WAKING THE TIGER BY PETER LEVINE WITH EFT

This study circle focuses on understanding trauma through the lens of the nervous system, especially concepts such as the freeze response, safety, regulation, and gradual trauma processing.
The selected book explores ways of safely approaching and working with trauma through body awareness, titration (processing in small, manageable doses), pendulation (moving gently between activation and safety), and learning to work within a person’s window of tolerance.
Alongside the book discussions, we will explore how these concepts can be applied within EFT sessions in a trauma-informed way.
For example:
- How to gently approach sensations instead of overwhelming the client
- Recognizing signs of dysregulation or shutdown
- Slowing down & pacing the sessions appropriately
- Working with activation safely and gradually
- Using EFT with greater awareness, safety, and attunement
Each session will include discussion of the assigned chapters along with reflection on how the material translates into practical EFT application.
The format will roughly be:
70% understanding the book and trauma concepts
30% integrating the learning into EFT practice
To get the most out of the study circle, some prior reading will be helpful. Introductory articles and supporting material will be shared before the classes begin.

WHAT IS THIS STUDY CIRCLE ABOUT?

This study circle is designed for EFT students & practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of trauma and bring a more informed and gentle approach to their EFT sessions.

Through guided discussions on trauma focused books, we will explore how trauma impacts the nervous system, its short term and long term impact and how to integrate this information into practical, trauma sensitive application.

Each session will include structured reflection, discussions and practitioner focused insights to help you lead effective EFT sessions.

This is not a therapy group or a sharing circle. The emphasis is on understanding trauma and building skill and ethical responsibility as practitioners.

 

Please note: This study circle is only for those who have finished EFT level 1 & 2 training.

FAQs

Is there any preparation needed for the calls?

Yes. You need to read the chapters before the calls, according to the schedule. This is a mandatory requirement.

 

Can we discuss client cases in these classes?

This is not a supervision or a mentoring call. We can use cases to build awareness and improve decision-making in the EFT sessions - not how to handle client cases.

 

Is this study circle for self-healing?

No. These study classes are not for self-healing. Personal information especially trauma related, must not be shared in the study classes.
