You’re going to love this free flowing and engaging episode with Jacqui Acree; a chat that’s a beautiful example of what happens when you meet someone and just click. Jacqui shares the power of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Tapping, the importance of self-compassion, being woo sceptical and the (unintentional) damage done by the self-help and positive psychology movement.
We chat about the upside of being in our (early!) 40s and giving less f*cks, re-connecting to ourselves, working with our mind and body and embracing the fact that putting on our oxygen mask first can be just for ourselves rather than something we do for others (especially as mothers). Yep, that comment was an eye opener for me!
Jacqui Acree is an Emotional Freedom Technique Practitioner with a BA in Counselling. Jacqui is a self-compassion advocate, goal trauma coach, and self-help disruptor. Jacqui often says that if being hard on ourself works, it would have worked by now. Jacqui is the founder of Being Human Together, an online course community where she uses EFT to empower highly sensitive women to free themselves from chronic stress, perfectionism, and their inner critic so they can live each day as their favourite version of themselves.
EFT Tapping is a science-based tool that blends acupressure and psychology to calm your nervous system, soften prickly emotions, and transform toxic thought patterns. Because it works with your body and subconscious mind instead of against them, tapping literally wires new neural pathways with relative ease.
