“The Havening Touch has been a life-changing technique. I can now quickly and effectively regulate my strong and overwhelming emotional reactions, as well as access the deep emotions and neurology behind the hurt and fear, healing them more completely. The periods of calm and confidence now far outweigh the meltdowns, and every day feels healthier. It has been transformational.” -J.J.
“It seemed very awkward at first, but Havening has become a staple for me. It’s a bit addicting, & I’ve also started using it on my children when they are struggling. I would encourage anyone to give it a try, as it truly works!” -R.A.
