You’ll learn how to use evidence-based EFT tapping to release thoughts, feelings and patterns that no longer serve you. Workshops can cover specific topics, including: ● sustainable self-care and compassion ● stress and overwhelm ● anxiety and depression ● body image and self-acceptance ● chronic pain ● cravings and addiction ● accepting and recovering from serious illness ● sleep issues and insomnia ● performance anxiety and perfectionism. These workshops can also offer health professionals, educators and caregivers tools to help others suffering trauma, chronic illness and pain, depression and anxiety. I customise each workshop to the specific needs and goals of a group. Workshops are held in a small, supportive group environment, and generally run for two to three hours. If you’d like to book a workshop and learn practical tools for healing, please get in touch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601149368427-6D27VF2ZBC2IJXLJQPX7/Tapping+8+-+Under+Arm+-+BW.jpg Workshops & Speaking - Guest speaking Over the years, I’ve been honoured to speak at a number of self-care empowerment events and retreats. In these safe and nurtured environments, I share my experience and knowledge on self-care and the importance of connecting to your own body and intuition. I talk about practical ways to free yourself from constant struggle and self-doubt, and set the foundation for growth. If you’d like me to attend your event and offer an empowering powerful experience to your audience, please get in touch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601149845693-DA5UKP6VVM76BNIBLTUX/Lou_Coles_with%2BKev%2Band%2BBodhi%2B-%2BBW.jpg Workshops & Speaking - Dog-assisted therapy Dog-assisted therapy is a calm, comforting experience that can be used to enhance and complement traditional forms of therapy. Through the soothing company of Kevin, the border collie, adults and children can benefit from the emotional support a dog can offer. Dog-assisted therapy is particularly effective with: ● soothing people in times of stress ● team building and boosting morale ● relieving stress ● making connections ● supporting people during medical procedures or therapy sessions. My therapy-dog, Kev, and I volunteer in the StoryDogs reading program in a local Hervey Bay school and at a local medical centre. We can also be engaged to visit organisations, events or individuals. Please discuss your needs and objectives with Lou. You can also follow Kev’s adventures on his Facebook page. Whether your workplace needs to reduce stress or boost morale, or you personally need to feel the unconditional support and connection that Kevin can offer, please get in touch https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601149650193-XJ2UJV5ORYTD26AV8G7I/Tapping+9+-+Top+of+head+-+BW.jpg Workshops & Speaking - Mindfulness meditation Strengthen your mind-body connection with short courses and workshops on mindfulness meditation. Mindfulness meditation is a practical and simple way to improve your health and happiness. It helps reduce stress, anxiety, depression and pain, and create a sense of calm and awareness. In each sitting, we practice a variety of mindfulness techniques, such as mindful movement, breath and guided meditation, and relaxed body scanning. There are opportunities to discuss meditation and mindfulness, and learn ways to bring this practice into your daily life. https://www.loucoles.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-06-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601154129797-UFYAK0HWT6P387LKVRCL/Lou_Coles_online+sessions.jpg Contact - Contact Lou.

Much like acupuncture, EFT achieves healing through stimulating the body’s acupressure points, using gentle pressure from your fingers rather than needles. The techniques require you to focus on what you want to change in your life. With this in mind, you tap gently with your own fingertips on points around the face and shoulders while concentrating on how it feels. EFT helps discharge emotional distress and negative thoughts and restore your body to ‘rest and repair’, a state where maintenance and healing can occur. It rapidly relieves stress and balances mind and body—the key to optimal health and healing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601096488561-ZHF5DEOJXITNAEW7GU9P/Tapping+3+-+side+of+eye+-+BW.jpg My Approach - Matrix Reimprinting Matrix Reimprinting is a safe and gentle psychosomatic technique that finds and releases trauma. The process allows you to access memories, trauma or limiting beliefs and swiftly and safely change them into new, more positive ones. During a session, we clear the emotional charge surrounding a memory and dissolve the limiting thoughts and behaviours that it may have set in motion. These beliefs become no longer true or relevant to your present or future. With over 3 years’ as a certified Matrix Reimprinting practitioner, I can help you release long-held traumas from the body and start living the life you deserve. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601096658076-8VQMRSIQQ5PLF55R4T6A/Tapping+4+-+Under+Eye+-+BW.jpg My Approach - Mindfulness Mindfulness is the practice of being in the present moment, rather than being preoccupied with the past or projecting into the future. It brings greater awareness to the mind-body connection, taking a step back from what our nervous system may be telling us. Mindful practice allows you to be who you are, in the here and now, without attachment or judgement. It can uncover unconscious thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and so that you can make conscious decisions about what you want to do instead. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601097042733-O0PWFG4FMWEL7B8RKWP5/Tapping+5+-+Under+nose+-+BW.jpg My Approach - Visualisation Visualisation uses the power of your mind to instruct your body how to use its energy and resources. It draws on the evidence-based research of Dr. David Hamilton, in which visualisations stimulate a ‘placebo’ response. Visualisation has been shown to improve healing in stroke and cancer patients and enhance high-level sports and arts performance. Together we can design visualisations that are personal and specific to your situation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601097085445-ORIOXV62SEM944BAWBBU/Tapping+6+-+Chin+-+BW.jpg My Approach - Yoga Find your centre and balance. Yoga is the practice of connecting the body and the mind. Taking time out of your busy life to inhabit your body with loving awareness. Paying attention and listening to our own body as you find your edge and your peace. With my yoga practice, a safe space is held for every individual, allowing your self-connection and confidence to grow. In a flowing practice, we find our strength, stability and contentment. What we experience on the mat, we take with us into our lives. https://www.loucoles.com/media-appearances daily 0.75 2021-04-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601152503088-JVI7951HLGI4MAK1DAKK/Charlie-Teo-tapping-600.png Media Appearances https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601429969538-408WYHDEYCOEQLTAE421/lou_coles_-_tapping.jpg Media Appearances https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1614670286362-HH33ZV5QA75VFGIO7KGR/Alive+Mag+image.png Media Appearances - Mind-Body Health - Alive Magazine Wide Bay https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1605590683391-YHQZPNP991OCDPKS8Y9P/lou-coles-kevs-adventures Media Appearances https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601492320744-BJS43T9Z0WZE3CUA0XHA/Untitled.png Media Appearances https://www.loucoles.com/private-sessions daily 0.75 2023-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601098169766-URDZCNWWBVE93REIO5TJ/Lou_Coles_Yellow%252Bdress%252Bupperbody.jpg Private sessions https://www.loucoles.com/home-1 daily 1.0 2025-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601063041890-X4KJM3B2TIK2Y5137W61/Lou_Coles_Hand-chin_Left-square.jpg Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions - Hi, I’m Lou. I’m an Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and Matrix Reimprinting practitioner based in Hervey Bay, Queensland. My mission is to support people that are accustomed to caring for everyone else but themselves — to help them learn how to prioritise their own health and happiness. My approach brings together the evidence-based, mind-body practices of Emotional Freedom Techniques, mindfulness and yoga to transform lives. It was my own health journey that guided me to this path. With the tool of EFT tapping, I was able to release the negative thoughts, feelings and patterns that my body was holding on to. By learning how to listen to my body and intuition, I was able to make better self-care choices and live a healthy, active and connected life, free of chronic illness and depression. Now, I empower others with the tools and awareness they can use in their daily lives. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601559975072-U07TFBE97CBWDUR246WZ/Empowerment.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions - Empowerment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601559866750-1GEL8IQJV06DAXA7M17P/Healing.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions - Healing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601559975042-9URMMRF7TE64KTEPMW3R/Understanding.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions - Understanding https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601065487166-79QUXTIP7K547078Y8YR/Tapping+4+-+Under+Eye.jpg Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601560715955-AB5Z9ZXXLAWD876A1VZ2/EFT-Emotional+Freedom+Technique.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions Emotional Freedom Techniques — A range of techniques using your own fingertips to stimulate acupressure points that calm the stress-centre of the brain and release difficult emotions, fears and past experiences. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601560732908-AH0KIBVW29KPYKUT8N36/Mindfulness.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions The practice of returning your mind back to the present moment, granting you the awareness for self-understanding and acceptance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601560782918-J70869HBTJQ53AN7VHYD/Visualisation.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions A powerful cognitive tool that utilises the power of your mind to instruct your body on how to utilise its resources. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601065240573-UP10BAGLXGKNSBEZPQML/Tapping+1+-+Side+of+hand.jpg Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601560696559-47VGJCQLPVO732O8ETFV/Matrix+Reimprinting.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions A deeper level of EFT therapy used to rewrite negative core beliefs and transform traumatic memories into insightful life experiences. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601560768585-C9TCUZIASOE8C5NM0HO3/Yoga.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions The practise of mindful movement to reconnect with the body and feel safe in the present moment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601560749072-SE8G7UZ963KL2WPNYQ5J/Dog-Assisted+Therapy.png Lou Coles Mind-Body Health Solutions Guided interaction with a therapy-dog to lower anxiety and stress and create a calm and soothing environment. https://www.loucoles.com/eft-tapping-points daily 0.75 2022-09-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1612330088803-12BQU2FIEAHYRCXHEYRW/Lou-Coles-EFT-Tapping-Points.png EFT Tapping Points https://www.loucoles.com/loving-kindness-meditation daily 0.75 2023-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1614732596479-6LOHJOW67CRWZGZI9IVT/Heart+on+Sand.jpeg Loving Kindness Meditation https://www.loucoles.com/private-sessions-1 daily 0.75 2023-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601098169766-URDZCNWWBVE93REIO5TJ/Lou_Coles_Yellow%252Bdress%252Bupperbody.jpg Private sessions (Old) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f6d6aeea66b150b3e0f8428/1601494646421-J0M2UL4F39RKJ39N690M/image-asset.jpeg Private sessions (Old) - Ready for change Perfect for people that are ready to change their life and release the layers that are currently holding them back.
