Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT): A Research Backed Method

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a modern form of science backed healing. It combines acupressure, exposure therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy to help individuals gain self-awareness and alleviate the pressure caused by stress, anxiety, depression and other emotional turbulences.

Acupressure help to re-balance the flow of energy through the body which is disrupted by traumatic experiences. Exposure therapy helps individuals to release the emotional “charge” associated with the experience. Furthermore CBT encourages individuals to identify and reframe the underlying negative thought patterns and beliefs that fuel the emotional distress. 

EFT is a versatile technique that offers a pathway to healing and fosters greater inner peace and self understanding.

You Can:

  • Alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression: By tapping on specific acupressure points, EFT rebalances your body's energy flow, often disrupted by trauma.

  • Release emotional charges: Safely process and diminish the intensity of feelings associated with difficult experiences through gentle exposure.

  • Reframe negative thought patterns: Identify and challenge underlying beliefs that contribute to emotional distress, fostering healthier perspectives.

  • Gain self-awareness and inner peace: Develop a deeper understanding of your emotions and build resilience.

  • Represent your unique journey with stunning visual art on your skin!

Sigils And Tattoos: A Symbol Of Your Intention

Sigils are symbols charged with a specific and focused intention that act as anchors for your desires and healing goals. Working collaboratively with Oliver, a personalized sigil will be developed based on insights gained during your one-on-one Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) sessions.

This unique symbol will then be tattooed on your skin, becoming a permanent reminder and amplifier of your intention for healing, protection, prosperity, or other outcomes you seek.

The physical experience of receiving a tattoo, with its inherent pain and intensity, infuses the sigil with energy, forging a strong connection to the individual and activating its inherent power.

Drawing upon the ancient traditions of tattooing as a ceremonial practice for initiation, exploration, and empowerment in tribal and ritualistic cultures worldwide, Tattoos for Trauma uniquely blends tattooing with the art of Sigil Creation.

The creation and application of sigils are rooted in the age-old belief that focused intention, consciously directed and symbolically encoded, can influence both our internal and external realities. The act of sigilization itself – the process of condensing a desire or affirmation into a distinct visual form – is crucial in charging the symbol with its intended potency.
