EFT Tapping for Overwhelm & Burnout
EFT for Overwhelm and Burnout – Restore Balance and Calm
Life can sometimes feel like too much. Work deadlines, family responsibilities, and constant stress leave you running on empty.
Overwhelm shows up as irritability, anxiety, sleeplessness, or a sense that you’re never doing enough. Left unchecked, it can lead to full burnout — emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion.
​
Burnout isn’t just about being tired. It’s your nervous system stuck in survival mode, unable to recharge.

Why EFT Helps with Burnout
EFT Tapping lowers cortisol and activates the body’s relaxation response. Studies show tapping significantly reduces stress and anxiety, helping restore balance to the nervous system (Church et al., 2012).
EFT doesn’t just manage symptoms. By addressing the emotions and beliefs fueling burnout (“I have to do it all,” “I can’t stop,” “I’m not enough”), it helps break the cycle.

What Sessions Look Like
-
We identify your current stressors and how they show up in your body.
-
You tap while acknowledging these pressures, reducing their intensity.
-
We uncover the deeper drivers (perfectionism, people-pleasing, guilt) and release them.
-
You leave with tools to reset your system daily.

​
How Many Sessions Are Needed?
Most people feel immediate relief in one session. For long-term burnout patterns, 3–6 sessions are recommended.

Common Questions
“Is EFT just stress management?”
It’s more. EFT helps shift the core beliefs and nervous system responses that create chronic stress.
“Can EFT help if I can’t change my workload?”
Yes. Even if external pressures remain, EFT changes how your body and mind respond to them.
“What if I feel too exhausted to do anything?”
That’s okay. EFT is gentle and requires little effort — often clients feel lighter after just a few minutes.

Imagine If…
-
You could wake up feeling rested, not already behind.
-
You responded calmly instead of snapping or shutting down.
-
You ended the day with energy for yourself and your family.
