   Ep 16 - The Missing Piece in Perimenopause

   Ep 9 - Why you need ERT when you are a Metabolic Balance Practitioner

   In this episode, I want to explore how Metabolic Balance and Emotion Release Technique (ERT) are closely linked and can significantly improve client outcomes, particularly for weight loss practitioners like me. Self-sabotage is a common issue, and ERT helps us identify and address the underlying emotional triggers that lead clients to veer off track. It's not about clients being "naughty"; it's about understanding the root causes and aligning them with their dietary plan from the start. ERT is also invaluable for addressing addictions to certain foods, coffee, or alcohol, making it easier for clients to adhere to the Metabolic Balance plan. Beyond that, ERT allows us to assess how emotional stress impacts organ function and metabolism. It's a holistic approach to improving clients' well-being. Combining Metabolic Balance with ERT sets practitioners apart, offering a comprehensive solution that addresses both dietary and emotional aspects.

    Ep 6 - The Evolution Forward: Emotion Release Technique

    I've got some thrilling news to share! After five successful years of running the Naturopathic Emotional Release Training (NER), we're embarking on a significant evolution. NER is now becoming the Emotion Release Technique, or ERT for short. This transformation marks a pivotal moment, allowing ERT to reach a wider audience beyond just naturopaths and nutritionists. ERT offers two distinct arms. The first is for health practitioners, including naturopaths, nutritionists, psychologists, and more, focusing on identifying stressors, addressing self-sabotage, and getting to the root of clients' issues. The second arm is for coaches and life workers, providing a framework to enhance client results by addressing resistance at the nervous system level. If you're already trained in NER, your credentials will automatically upgrade to the internationally recognized ERT credential with no additional training required. This evolution is about expanding our reach and helping more people while providing practitioners with a powerful tool for their clients. Join us on this exciting journey!

    Ep 5 - What I have noticed after the pandemic

    In this episode, I want to discuss the significant surge in mental health challenges that have emerged over the past few years, particularly in the context of the ongoing pandemic in 2023. Many individuals, who had never before experienced anxiety or depression, have been profoundly affected. This isn't solely due to the pandemic itself but also its consequences, such as isolation, travel restrictions, and drastic lifestyle changes, all exacerbated by the pervasive fear. The issue is compounded by the extended wait times individuals face for mental health support, leaving them feeling helpless. I believe it's our collective responsibility to provide assistance and offer solutions. One valuable approach I want to highlight is naturopathic emotional release (NER). NER helps clients process stress and unconscious triggers effectively, without requiring them to divulge their emotions verbally. This method yields rapid improvements, instilling hope in clients, and it can be especially useful for those who struggle to express themselves verbally. By addressing mental health more comprehensively and empathetically, we can better support our clients, their children, and our communities as we navigate the long-term effects of recent events. This podcast encourages practitioners to consider holistic approaches like NER to enhance mental well-being and provide lasting relief.

    Ep 4 - Unconscious Belief Systems We Have and How They Influence Us

    In this episode, I want to chat with you about something super important – our beliefs and how they shape our lives. You know those times when you feel like you're holding yourself back or always stressed? It might have something to do with what's going on in your head. Our beliefs often come from our past experiences and what people around us, like parents, teachers, or friends, have said or done. These beliefs are like hidden rules that influence how we feel and act, but we don't always realize it. That's where Naturopathic Emotional Release comes in. It's an incredible technique that helps us figure out how our minds are wired and why we believe certain things. Even if we don't consciously choose these beliefs, they can affect our lives in big ways. Now, let's talk about why this matters, especially for women who are often juggling a million things and feeling burnt out. Sometimes, we put everyone else first and forget about ourselves. This can mess with our hormones and health. Naturopathic Emotional Release helps us not only understand why we're feeling this way but also how we can change it. It's not just about giving herbs or supplements; it's about getting to the root of the problem. You see, many of us have this inner critic that's always judging us. It's like having a strict teacher in our heads. This constant stress can mess with our hormones, our thought patterns and health. With this technique, we can trace these patterns back to our past, often to our childhood. It's pretty amazing because it helps us connect the dots between our beliefs and our behaviors today. By working on these core beliefs and emotions, we can start to change our lives for the better. I've seen people go from being super critical of themselves to becoming more compassionate and loving themselves. It's like a transformation! So, if you're dealing with stress, burnout, or just feeling stuck, consider looking into Naturopathic Emotional Release. It's all about understanding and changing those deep-seated beliefs that might be holding you and your clients back. Trust me; it can make a world of difference in how you feel, live and the thoughts that are in your mind.

    Ep 3 - The Biggest Issue I See in Clinical Practice: Self-Sabotage

    In this podcast episode, we dive deep into the world of self-sabotage and how we can break free from its grip. Self-sabotage is a sneaky subconscious behavior that plagues not only our clients but practitioners like me as well. It's the silent force that derails the best-laid health plans. But it's crucial to understand that self-sabotage isn't about being naughty or insincere; it's a complex interplay of deep-rooted patterns in our subconscious mind. Our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and actions are driven by the subconscious and unconscious mind. These patterns often originate in our early years as protective mechanisms. However, they can outlive their usefulness and become obstacles to our well-being. Identifying self-sabotage is the first step. Most clients aren't aware they're undermining their own goals. They genuinely want to improve their health, but their subconscious patterns hold them back. Enter Naturopathic Emotional Release (NER) – a powerful tool to assess clients' readiness for change. NER helps uncover and process the hidden beliefs, emotions, and behaviors that hinder progress. Picture clients struggling with weight loss, nutrient supplementation, sleep, or exercise. NER allows us to address the root cause of their self-sabotage. By addressing these subconscious behaviors with NER, we set our clients up for success. They find it easier to follow recommendations, and their health improves significantly. Don't rely solely on willpower to conquer self-sabotage; it runs deep. NER is the missing piece in the puzzle. It doesn't just help our clients; it strengthens our practice too. Satisfied clients are more likely to stay committed and refer others, boosting our success. Recognizing and addressing self-sabotage is transformative in holistic health. With NER, we unlock our clients' full potential and facilitate lasting behavioral changes. It's time to bid farewell to self-sabotage and embrace vibrant health.

    Ep 2 - What is Naturopathic Emotional Release (NER)?

    In this insightful discussion, Karlie McKeand sheds light on the transformative power of Naturopathic Emotional Release (NER). She emphasises its critical role in holistic health practices, providing a comprehensive understanding of its applications. NER serves as a powerful tool for practitioners to address the emotional core of their clients' well-being. By honing in on the emotions and stresses underlying physical symptoms, NER contributes to better results in client care. Karlie highlights that regardless of the practitioner's experience or the client's condition, NER offers an avenue to assess and process emotional drivers effectively. NER's methodology involves assessing the subconscious through muscle testing and processing emotions using specific points and techniques, including elements of EFT. Karlie outlines its simplicity and safety, offering clients an opportunity to share or remain silent during the process. Insightful conversations may arise, enhancing both the practitioner's and the client's understanding of emotional patterns and behaviours. Karlie underscores NER's relevance across a diverse spectrum of conditions, from anxiety, depression, and sleep issues to fertility challenges, trauma, and weight management. NER helps identify and process emotional drivers, enabling lasting behavioural changes that enhance treatment outcomes. Karlie notes that practitioners who incorporate NER into their toolkit offer invaluable support, aiding clients in reaching their goals faster and more effectively. Addressing emotional health is paramount in holistic practice, and NER stands as a non-negotiable addition to the practitioner's repertoire. Karlie encourages interested listeners to explore NER's potential through www.nertraining.com, offering insights into this technique's remarkable impact on client well-being. Incorporate Naturopathic Emotional Release to elevate your holistic practice and offer clients a comprehensive path to emotional well-being and better health outcomes.
