By teaching the neurological repatterning tool of "Tapping," natural foods chef and mindful eating coach Marcella Friel will help you transform the stressful circumstances and mistaken beliefs that have spawned less-than-ideal eating behaviors to re-discover the nourishment that is your birthright so that food can find its rightful place in your life. Sometimes called "emotional acupressue," Tapping (also known as Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT) is an energy-healing based practice which uses gentle self-tapping on points of the body and statements similar to affirmations to short-circuit harmful patterns and imprinting.
While Tapping can certainly help you lose weight, it will also help you to accept and honor your own body. Besides clear instructions on Tapping techniques that make it easy for you to begin practicing right away, Marcella explores the many other factors, from the multi-billion dollar diet industry to the way our industrialized food is produced to the emotional currents underlying trauma around food, that have caused so many people to need healing around eating and body image.
Tap, Taste, Heal offers written tapping "scripts," links to online tapping script audios, and links to online tapping video demonstrations as well as cooking demonstrations for key healing foods. The author is certified in Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT); is a certified natural foods chef (Natural Gourmet Institute, NYC); and teaches online and at retreats. She has cooked at or directed the kitchens at Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia (director Pema Ch dr n), Shambhala Mountain Center in Red Feather Lakes, Colorado, and Spirit Rock Meditation Center.
About the Author

She is a graduate of the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City, a certified EFT (Tapping) practioner, and a certified matrix reimprinting practitioner. A longtime student and teacher of Buddhist meditation, Friel combines laser-sharp insight, playful humor, and gentle inquisitiveness to help clients feel held, seen, and at ease as they release their negative core beliefs about themselves and their food.
