Is it necessary to be on time for the training?
It is important that you be at the workshop when it begins.
Thought Field Therapy is based on the acupuncture system and these
spots will be learned very early on each day. It is difficult
to catch up if you miss the early part of the training.
What time does the workshop begin each day?
Unless otherwise advised the workshop will begin at 8:30
am with sign-ins and a continental breakfast. The working day
will begin at 8:45am with a morning break around 10:30 am, lunch
from 12 noon to 1:15pm, an afternoon break around 3:00 pm and
ending each day at 5:00pm.
What is the cost for attending the training?
The fee for both days is $350.00.
What Should I wear to your Thought Field Therapy Training?
Wear anything you like but DO NOT wear fragrances (perfumes,
scented hair sprays, etc.) Many attendees have environmental sensitivities
and all energy work is more effective and efficient in a fragrance-free
environment. Most attendees dress in casual attire.
What
is the difference between a TFT Algorithm Training and a TFT Diagnostic
Training? |
Diagnostic
Training involves the use of applied kinesiology or muscle testing.
This involves touching the client. It is taught only by Dr. Roger
Callahan the originator of Thought Field Therapy. Dr. Callahan
is constantly improving his diagnostic techniques. Anyone else
claiming to teach a TFT Diagnostic training is not approved and
is using old outdated Thought Field Therapy techniques. A series
of Diagnostic Training tapes can be ordered from Dr. Roger Callahan
for $499.00. This can be followed by a live three day training
with Dr. Callahan for an additional $1500.00. If you would like
an intense 6 month supervision, working with Dr. Callahan after
completing his training this is an additional $3,000.00.
The training
I provide is a Callahan approved training. Thought Field Therapy
algorithm trainings should be taken from a Callahan approved instructor
as approved instructors have the advantage of benefiting from
new techniques as they are studied and approved by Dr. Callahan.
Other (non-approved) trainers are teaching watered down versions
or versions they learned from Dr. Callahan years ago. Taking the
approved Algorithm Training will you to treat anxieties, phobias,
grief, trauma, sadness, disappointment, guilt, anger , rage, depression
and addictions. This is a hands on interactive training that prepares
you to use the TFT techniques with skill and confidence.
What is the
difference between TFT (Thought Field Therapy) and the "newer"
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)?
Several people
who have taken Dr. Callahan's extensive training have simply changed
the name and called it by their own name. You will come across
this from time to time. Others like the "developer"
of EFT have taken Dr. Callahan's training and modified it and
then called it by a new name. In the system known as EFT, all
of the points discovered by Dr. Callahan are tapped over and over,
and often, this can be effective. However, I have found it bores
most clients because it can take so much longer and that it still
incorporates techniques such as affirmations which have been long
done away with in Thought Field Therapy because they have been
shown to be unnecessary and cumbersome.
Also techniques
known as reversal correction techniques are done automatically
with this technique and, as a clinician, you can miss valuable
information about your client by having them perform these techniques
indiscriminately.
If I come to
a training in Sedona where can I stay?
Sedona is a
beautiful and well known resort town with many inns, bread and
breakfasts, resorts and hotels. Sedona Online has a wonderful
directory of Hotels, Motels, and resorts to choose from.
