The first thing that people usually notice about me is that I’m tall – 1.93m or, if you prefer, 6’5″!
The second most common comment people make when they meet me is that they can’t place my accent. That’s because, after growing up in South Africa and leaving for the UK when I was 26, I’ve lived and worked in England, Scotland, Europe, Africa, Australia, the Middle East and the USA.
After a successful corporate career that spanned 20 years and took me around the world implementing IT solutions, it dawned on me in 2009 that the time had come to draw a line under that experience - to follow my heart.
I’ve worked through many tough and dark emotional times in my life and discovering EFT in 2003 was literally a life saver. Being an EFT practitioner and trainer alongside my ‘day job’ was rewarding in some ways but I was finally ready to take a leap of faith and start my own full-time therapy and training practice; and that is how this site that you are looking at right now was born, and these other specialised projects:
- www.thepassionprojectformen.com – helping men with sexual difficulties
- www.thelaughingmonkey.org - helping men free themselves from internet porn
Note: at the time of writing this – Sept 2011 – these projects and websites are still under development.
 “I had always been a left-brained, analytical type of person. And I had always believed that healing takes a long time, required a lot of work and had to be serious. I was completely blown away by my first experience with tapping. I got results and it was fast, easy and enjoyable.”- Bennie Naude |
As I help people to feel better about themselves and about life (click here to see the types of issues that I most commonly help people through) I also continue my own healing journey. EFT and Matrix Re-imprinting have helped me overcome a range of issues:
- I used to get so anxious speaking to large groups of people that my neck would get blood red; after just two tapping sessions (over 8 years ago) that is now but a distant memory and I now love presenting and speaking to audiences around the world.
- I worked my way out of deep dark depression, hopelessness and despair
- I released uncontrollable food cravings that caused me to put on so much weight that I had to buy new clothes
- I worked my way through a host of self-limiting beliefs, mostly of the ‘I’m not good enough’ variety
- and the list goes on! I believe that continuing to look within and staying on our own healing road is essential to those of use who work with other people.
Besides EFT and Matrix Re-imprinting I also gained experience with other transformational tools, including active visualisation, NLP, Hypnosis, ShadowWork, Byron Katie, and The Sedona Method; this means that I can choose the most appropriate technique to work with each individual client and group of clients.
So far 2011 been a year of extensive travelling for me as I teach around the world; I’ve facilitated workshops in Ireland, South Africa (Cape Town and Johannesburg), Australia (Perth, Queensland, Bellingen and Sydney), Switzerland (Geneva) and Holland (at the Dutch Masterclass in Deurne).
I love exercise, swimming, nature, reading, movies, good food with good friends, and the simple things in life; my life is blessed beyond reason!
| “Surprised to find myself smiling during our sessions…” I called Bennie after a friend recommended EFT. During each individual session, I found Bennie to be a good listener who applied his experience and intuition to understand my situation very well. He identified some issues that I had not realized where relevant to the challenges we were addressing. I felt safe, which was important as Bennie’s tools and methods were completely new to me. - Nigel |
