In this episode, Belinda sits down with Dr Peta Stapleton to explore the science behind EFT, also known as tapping.

Once dismissed by many as “woo-woo,” EFT is now backed by decades of research showing its impact on stress, anxiety, emotional regulation and the nervous system. Dr Peta explains how tapping on acupuncture points can help calm the brain and body, and why this simple technique is being used to support overwhelm, trauma, cravings, fear and everyday stress.

Belinda also shares her own journey with tapping, from initially thinking it felt strange, to now using it personally and within her retreat work. Together, they unpack how EFT can help people process emotion, regulate the nervous system and create more emotional freedom in daily life.
