Trauma Relief in Rwanda at the IZERE Center

This amazing video shows the work being done for Trauma Relief in Rwanda at the IZERE Center.  It was filmed while Dr. Caroline Sakai and her team were there last month.  It emphasizes the importance of the work being done in Rwanda and what long-term implications it can have for TFT around the world.

Teaching Humanitarian TFT in Japanese University

JATFTDr. Ayame Morikawa, president of the Japanese Association of Thought Field Therapy (JATFT), has initiated a program entitled “TFT Partners” based on the TFT Foundation’s community treatment model in which non-professionals are taught to use TFT for humanitarian purposes. This program will help meet the need throughout the world for paraprofessionals who can help with PTSD and other psychological problems identified by the World Health Organization (WHO).

A one-day workshop has been developed as part of a university Psychology class in Japan and will teach the following:

– humanitarian assistance

– becoming a helper rather than a therapist

– trauma care

– assistance to depression

– TFT Algorithms (trauma, depression, and physical pain)

The program will be offered to anyone who wants to help, including professionals, paraprofessionals and university students.

We are pleased to now have a version of the “From Trauma to Peace” documentary trailer with French subtitles. Please share this with French speaking friends, colleagues, and anyone else you think might benefit from being made aware of this powerful tool for peace.

Many thanks to TFT Foundation board member Oob Nding for the translation!

Dear Friends,

In honor of Dr. Roger Callahan’s passing on Nov. 4, it gives me particular pleasure to announce that we’ve added two new translations of the TFT trauma relief technique: Kinyarwanda and Swedish.

Many thanks to Prosper Ishimwe for the Kinyarwanda translation, and to Ann-margret Lövling for the Swedish. Their generosity makes the profound healing and transformational discoveries of Dr. Callahan available to two more countries!

To see the new translations, go to the right column and look under “Pages–Technique Instructions.”
