New phone scam re Hydro. You receive a phone call that you're scheduled for disconnection TODAY. That you can't stop it by paying credit card or etransfer. When you point out your account is not in arrears, they say if there's an error, it will be refunded to you. They will send a QR code and stay on the phone with you until the transaction is completed at a local Kiosk in cash. Hydro NEVER leaves a toll free number. If you get a call like this, hang up and call Hydro direct...ly at the number on your Hydro bill or look it up online. to confirm your status. DO NOT MAKE A CASH PAYMENT. The money will be gone forever. When I called the scammer on it, he laughed and said "how did you find out" Please share. As a therapist, I prefer to protect people before they are harmed.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Tapping points and some special extra tips. For those curious about Eft Tapping, or just starting out, the following video will get you started and the bonus tips will help you get more out of doing this at home. These basic moves can also be used as a stand-alone method to reduce cortisol levels even without using EFT. Cortisol is a major stress hormone which is useful in small amounts at the right time, but puts enormous stress on the hu...man body and brain when it remains elevated. Double blind studies have confirmed these effects, but also demonstrated the need to do it properly. Volunteers taught sham tapping points saw no cortisol changes. It didn't harm, but it didn't help.

Limiting beliefs Uncovered -An empowering exercise. Limiting beliefs. Virtually everyone is powerfully influenced by them but are blissfully unaware of many of them. They create invisible resistances to accomplishing your goals and desires. Hamstringing you in the search for happy, meaningful lives free of trauma, self-doubt and self-sabotage. The following limiting beliefs checklist can be eye opening. I often use this with clients to quantify the benefits they’ve gained du...ring sessions. Go down the list and without overthinking it, give a number from 0-10 as to how true it feels, rather than how true you think it is. The 1st number that comes to mind is usually the most accurate. Recording how true each statement feels is a lovely simple way to recognize some of the subconscious programming hobbling us. Knowledge is power. Becoming aware of what’s running in the background of your mental processes is a powerful first step towards freedom from limiting beliefs and the stress, emotional distress, and self sabotage they bring. Getting where you consciously want to go in life is so much easier with the emergency brake off. Enjoy this empowering exercise and if you wish to know more, book an initial consult with me.

Looking for volunteers to test non-drug sleep patches for one week each. Initial experiences including my own have been really good but want to see how effective they are in a larger population. Participants who regularly wake up tired and unrefreshed will receive 7 of these non-invasive patches at no cost in return for giving honest feedback on results. I'm an open minded but skeptical therapist, so despite the research, I want more feedback before I make recommendations to clients. It's always my reputation on the line. To clarify. This is not a study, clinical or otherwise. Simply seeking feedback on people's individual experiences with an over the counter accupressure-like patch available in Canada, the USA and the UK.

ADD, ADHD, difficulty focusing or staying on task? Canadian Neuroscience to the rescue. As therapist, I see up close, the mental and emotional toll Covid 19 stress has taken. One of the well-known effects of elevated stress, is a general reduction in how well the brain functions. Stress makes it harder to self motivate, learn, focus, stay on task and make decisions. In addition, an estimated six percent of children and four percent of adults already had ADD or ADHD as of 201...6. Covid 19 stress jut amplifies the impact of these issues. The disruptions in learning potential for students and productivity/wellbeing losses for those in the work force have been profound. Fortunately, a decade of neuroscience research brought us a new technology just before Covid 19 reared its ugly head. At $65.00 per year or less, this powerfully effective technology is a practical investment for everyone. From starving students, to executives and CEOs looking for a safe, non-drug edge on the competition. The technology imbedded in neurocognitive enhancement sleeves is safe, non-invasive, comfortable and carries a 30-day satisfaction warranty. Many children have already seen these sleeves on competitive gamers’ arms. With so much at stake during tournaments, gamers were eager early adopters of the technology. The eSmartr neurocognitive sleeve is worn on the dominant forearm and is shown to have powerful beneficial effects on the brain’s functioning. The research from this Canadian company shows that: The proprietary Cognitive Boost Technology (CBT) pattern embedded inside every Sleeve activates receptors in the skin that trigger a neural response in the brain - resulting in scientifically proven amplified cognitive abilities. Discover enhanced concentration and memory, heightened decision making, increased stamina, accelerated reaction times, and an improved sense of clarity and calm. The sleeves come in a range of colours and styles from shorter, stealth, secret edge no one sees, to longer, bold bright fashion statements. All equally effective. As a therapist, I offer the tools that give my clients the safest, least challenging routes to the ends they desire. These and other related neurotech are useful resources in my practice toolbox. Supporting the Central Nervous Systems, gives my therapy clients that much more traction in their journeys towards healing. To receive a video link which goes more deeply into the science and the QEEG brain mapping studies done, please email a request to [email protected] . To see the many styles and colours of sleeves available, see ecosys.voxxlife.com . Additional resources to reduce stress and anxiety may be found in the Videos section @ www.EcosysWellness.com . Yours in good physical, mental and emotional health.

Good news re Covid 19, free video mini-sessions and Covid 19 safety for clients. First, Some good news about Covid 19 in Canada. To date, there are 405 cases here, but only four deaths; at least 3 of which were people living in nursing homes. Italy which was hit hard, had zero deaths in those under 60. I suspect a big part of the reason why our death rate per case is tiny compared to the U.S. is that 1) health care for the huge low income population in the U.S. is extremely ...poor compared to Canada 2) The diet of this population is typically less nutrient dense and exposure to toxins is vastly higher than that of most Canadians. This of course does not imply the lives of the elderly or disadvantaged are less important. It simply puts in perspective the risk. Due to the enormous stress people of all ages have been experiencing from the current virus situation, I’m providing no cost 30 minute sessions via video cam for anyone feeling overwhelmed by it all. It’s a well know fact that stress damages the immune system’s capabilities, so call or email to request your free 30 minute session. Included will be Energy Medicine routines From Dr Finestine and Donna Eden to support the body, mind and immune system as well as Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT, Tapping, Energy Psychology) to reduce stress. For existing or new clients wishing to come in person, the following safety measures are in place. Currently installed Central Photo-oxidation air purifying and HEPA filtration equipment is approved by Homeland Security for bio-terrorism, sterilizing lights in the treatment area offer additional protection, treated airflow comes from behind clients, providing a bubble zone of enhanced safety, all touch surfaces will be wiped with alcohol after each session and a 30 minute minimum buffer time is in place between the end of one session and the beginning of the next. For those still concerned, sessions will be done via video. A Zoom link will be sent before the session starts. Click on it and the session will open. Over the years, I’ve shared these video sessions with many clients located as far away as Australia and Spain. After the first few minutes, they feel like any normal face to face session. It requires no technical expertise; only access to a PC or laptop with a video camera. At the scheduled time, clients receive a link to click on which will connect them via Zoom; a secure video conferencing platform. During this time of economic upheaval, the fee will be reduced to $100.00/session (+ HST for Canadians). Those with loss of income due to the current situation will receive a further reduction to $65.00/session (+ HST for Canadians). I wish you all good mental, emotional and physical health.

Q: What's the best way to get over a phobia of needles/injections? A: During my years of working as an Integrative Therapist, I’ve found Emotional Freedom Techniques and Picture Tapping Techniques to be so painlessly effective for phobias including needles, that I provide a warranty. Phobias are driven by subconscious programming from earlier in life; usually, although not always things experienced or overheard from infancy to age six. These techniques allow the conscious an...d subconscious mind to collaborate to figure out the "whole story". Determining if the overwhelming fear or aversion is really needed any more to be safe in this moment. Instead of papering over the old programming, which is painful and slow, we’re re writing it. This can be done in person or via video/cam using the free and quite secure program zoom. For further information see http://www.ecosyswellness.com or to find another practitioner near you see EftInternational.com . Yours in good mental and emotional health.

Healing test anxiety with EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques, Energy Psychology) Test and Exam Anxiety: At this time of year many students experience distressing feelings of jitteriness, clenching sensations in the gut, self-doubt and dread; ranging all the way to outright panic. The blood flow begins to be diverted from the logical thinking parts of the brain to the survival centers managing fight, flight or freeze. As the exam performance parts of the brain experience re...Continue reading

Shy Bladder Syndrome fix It’s estimated that about seven percent of the population suffers from Shy Bladder Syndrome (Paruresis). This seemingly trivial inability to urinate where anyone might see or hear can have a significant impact on quality of life. The longer it goes on, the more anxious people become and the more hyper reactive they become to any perceived lack of privacy. Fortunately there is a ridiculously simple fix: Start with an environment where you know you will... have difficulty, but still have significant privacy. Get ready to go, but ignore the fact you have to urinate. Instead, focus on doing addition or multiplication problems in your head. They should be doable, but difficult enough that you really have to concentrate; such as 16 times 16. It doesn’t matter whether you get the correct answer. The effort is the trick. While intensely concentrating on something else, your mind forgets to be bashful and lo and behold, you’re urinating. Each success breeds further confidence in the technique and soon you’ll find yourself happily doing math in your head and peeing any place you like. Eventually the subconscious mind will realize there’s no current threat while urinating and the need for this trick will fade away. However, just the subconscious awareness that you have it handy, helps eliminate the need for it. For most, this technique is quite effective, but the roots of the issue lie in old programming in the subconscious mind. Should this not resolve the issue successfully, then advanced Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT, Tapping, PTT) offer powerful tools to allow the conscious and subconscious minds to collaborate. Re-examining and re-processing the subconscious beliefs and fears causing the problems in the first place. For further information about these techniques and the over 400 research studies already published, call or email. Services are supplied in-office and remotely via Zoom. Yours in good mental, physical and emotional health. David EP Gilbert- Integrative Therapist Work so powerful it’s guaranteed. EcoSys Wellness Center 59 Westcliffe Rd.

The Anger Iceberg and Emotional Freedom Techniques: When helping clients with anger issues, there are always aspects hidden below like the hidden parts of an iceberg. These buried feelings may include sadness, fear, shame, guilt, depression, anxiety, abandonment, trapped, embarrassed, hurt, humiliation and many others. By using advanced Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) or Picture Tapping Techniques (PTT), we address the anger attached to a given experience. This allows the ...conscious and subconscious minds to examine that experience from all sides; collaborating to reprocessing it. Clearing the big T or little t traumas attached and removing their power to cause pain or harm. We repeat the process, with each of the layers underneath as they come to the surface. These techniques are powerful, but so gentle clients avoid being re-traumatized. When anger gets in the way of living the life you want, call David Gilbert - Integrative Therapist.
