The Very REAL Connection Between AD[H]D & Eating Disorders
In this 60-minute presentation, you will discover how the challenges of AD[H]D symptomology can intertwine with patterns of disordered eating - both deeply impacting and exasperating the other. My goal is to share insightful and enlightening research on the topic; looking at genetic and biological factors that hugely impact a person's likelihood of having an AD[H]D diagnosis and developing an eating disorder.
The link between AD[H]D and Eating Disorders is real. I truly believe the more we understand this complex intersection, the more we will understand the underlying mechanisms of eating disorders/disordered eating behaviours and their impact on AD[H]D. This important understanding serves as a solid foundation to which we can then look at helpful (and individualized) interventions, resources, medications, and tools for both recovery and symptom management.
I will also share why this topic is so important to me, both personally and professionally...how a late diagnosis of AD[H]D served as the missing puzzle piece in helping me understand my past struggle with a decades-long eating disorder.

EFT/Tapping is the Missing Link in Addiction Recovery

Addiction is NOT a lack of willpower, it is not a character flaw, it is not about a client’s worth and value.
It is a multidimensional biological body based experience. Candace Fox, an Addiction Recovery Coach and a Master Level graduate of NeftTi’s Conscious EFT certification program, occupies a unique position in the recovery healing world as she integrates NeftTi’s profound transformational framework with the powerful modality of EFT/tapping.

Clinical EFT Outcomes
As a friend and colleague of mind says (referring to EFT), “I put that shit [EFT] on everything!” I couldn’t agree more! EFT Tapping is the ‘hot sauce’ of the self-help world!
While there have admittedly yet to be any formal clinical studies on the efficacy of EFT for symptoms directly related to AD[H]D and Autism Spectrum Disorder - there is a body of research on common comorbidities like stress, anxiety, depression, binge eating disorder, sleep, physical/chronic pain etcetera.
What is also important to note and remind ourselves, while we might be focusing on shifting one symptom or disruption that we are experiencing, when we work on regulating the nervous system we are impacting the whole physiological and subtle energy system - for the better!
Please see FAQs page for more information and access to research and my own preliminary/amateur research project looking at the impact of Acupressure Tapping on AD{H]D symptoms in adults.
