The Case for EFT and Writing and Publishing EFT Case Studies

By: EFTi Editor | 13 May, 2021
Categories: The Science Behind EFT

Dr. Liz Boath

Editor's Note: Liz is Professor of Health and Wellbeing at Staffordshire University as well as an EFTi Advanced Practitioner. Her presentation is about how to write a case study for publication.

She also speaks about how there is a paucity of case studies in EFT and why case studies are important. This is a must see presentation for anyone considering doing a case study in EFT.
