066 - Emotional Freedom Technique

A few months ago, Whitney Low hosted Sandy Fritz on The Thinking Practitioner. Both Bori and Jeff had pretty strong positive and negative responses to what Sandy had to say. In this episode, we try to tease out what struck such a strong chord with each of us. You can listen to the TTP episode here. Each of us listened to it more than once, and we encourage you to do so as well!

Half book review and half "maybe this is why the work works" discussion, about a year ago Jeff read Lisa Feldman Barrett's How Emotions Are Made and has been mulling it over ever since. Credit to two others in the field for pointing us down this path. Science of Touch's Eddie Ulm for providing a framework of bodywork through a predictive coding lens. The authors of this paper for linking predictive coding to osteopathy. 

Jeff's flying solo this week talking about teaching; not just continuing education but being faculty at a massage school. The school I teach at is located in Boston and also has locations in Easthampton, MA and St Paul, MN. It's called, fittingly, The Massage School.
