Educator's Testimonial

“As an educator, CPT has be a valuable resource to help manage stress, enhance student performance, and aids in creating an ideal learning environment for children to fully engage in the educational process.

Years ago, when I was teaching kindergarten in a traditional public school, I was tasked with a very difficult class population, both academically and behaviorally. Many of the students were intensely far behind in skill bases such as basic reading and mathematics. To help manage the demands of the day, I would teach the children CPT starting with the emotions of what made them feel “mad”, “sad”, and “scared” based on Laurie’s guidance on how to best bring this method to a child’s imagination level.

One by one, we would pull each of these emotions, and the tied memories of these feelings, into the center of our awareness. We called it: “The little man in the pineal gland of the brain zapping all the yucky stuff”. By the end of the school year, 100% of my once struggling kindergarten class was “at or above benchmark goals” for reading. This was quite a feat given the fact that OVER half of the class tested for having a specific learning disability. I attribute their success, despite disabilities, to our work addressing stress with CPT a little bit each day to remove emotional blocks to success.

This process created a clear portal for organic learning to take place and lead to sustained retention of content. Overall toggling helps me, as an educator, process the demands of the job so my work comes from a place of emotional clarity. It is a technique I use everyday teaching children with special needs.

Students with autism find immense benefit from the process; it’s easier for them to “pull in” emotions rather than “talk” about them. Children who have suffered trauma can also benefit greatly from CPT because it is very private. It allows access to feelings without the over-analyzing process that traditional therapy offers when you “talk it out”. It requires no special “equipment” or special place – just your own mind and your own body.

Accessibility to shifting negative emotions is immediate which makes it the most useful method for stress management I’ve ever found. When crisis happens, it’s an opportunity to pull in that feeling or moment and clear out the blocks that keep us from attaining our best selves. We can teach children how they have personal power over their energy frequency and how to evolve to a place where things just flow easily.”
