| EFT for Animals - The Surrogate Tapping Workshop
With Gwyneth Moss and Heather Smiles
Sunday 23rd September in Ilkley
Surrogate tapping made simple: learn a three stage structured approach to tapping for others with Emotional Freedom Techniques through first working with and learning from animals. We then teach how to apply the process to help humans in need. Learn how to help pets to change unhelpful behaviours and how to free them from the traumas of loss, abandonment and cruelty.
Gwyneth Moss EFT Master says: since writing the article Two Cats and a Puppy (French translation: Deux Chats) for Gary Craig EFT Founder's newsletter, I have received a great deal of interest from those who wish to extend the benefits of EFT to their pets and other animals. The results of the EFT tapping circle for animals that I describe in the article came as a great surprise to me because behavioural change in an animal, at a distance facilitated by a group of strangers challenged my acceptance of what is possible.
I've been running these EFT circles for animals for seven years now, with usually immediate and dramatic change in the animals we have tapped for (and often change for the people tapping too), I now wish to share this method throughout the EFT community. Tapping for animals is a great way to learn about and experience surrogate tapping and powerful borrowing benefits. You do not have to be an animal owner or lover to gain benefits from this day.
Pictured here is Tiki, he is a big, powerful dog and previously was very aggressive to one of his owner Karin's employees. Listen in as Karin and I tap for Tiki in this free audio: Tapping for Tiki mp3 Download. The outcome is that Tiki still gives a warning bark and growl and then settles down and leaves the poor man alone. Fiona Lewis listened to our session for Tiki and tapped along, read the surprising outcome: My Mad Collie (Poppy is pictured below Tiki)
Unfortunately animals can be traumatised by well intentioned humans as well as by deliberate cruelty. Through our tapping sessions common themes emerge such as: early separation from the litter; fear of being returned to a rescue centre; confusion about what is required of them; being parted from an owner or sale of an animal companion yet it is humbling how quickly an animal comes to forgiveness.
Here are some animal tapping articles by my students:

In this one day workshop we work together as a group to explore and experience three methods of surrogate tapping for animals. In first person surrogate work one person role plays an animal known to them whilst another acts as EFT helper. We will also use second person or dialogue work and the third person descriptive approach. Listen to Gwyneth's Interview on EFT Radio for more about surrogate work.
The Surrogate Tapping Workshop
We teach you the three stage approach to surrogate tapping. During the day we will have time to work for animals known to group members. If you do not have animals yourself then ask around your friends and come with the details of an animal with behaviour problems. We start with animals and then teach you how to apply the process for work for humans and we end the day with a group tapping for a human.
The intention is that you:
- experience three approaches to EFT surrogate work to use progressively to help animals and humans;
- gain insight into the world of animals;
- learn how to run Animal EFT circles yourself.
You need not be an animal lover to benefit from learning and experiencing these approaches to surrogate tapping. This class is open to all who love EFT. If you have done some EFT training you will get more out of the day however all that is needed to attend is that you are familiar with using EFT for yourself.
