New Softening Event DVD - Coming Soon!
We are busy working on our first DVD. We are VERY excited about it. We've been researching EFT Softening Events for ten years now. We've published and presented extensively on this. Now is the time to put all of it together and show us in action.
We've secured two Softening Events done by Brent, and a third done by Sue. All three of these are from our private collections and have never before been seen. We are busy racking our brains for the most creative way to bring this to you. It's got to be different from what's currently out there to please us. Stay tuned to this site for updates and a release date!

Brent, Jim, and Nick have been profoundly impacted by cancer. Chances are those you love have been too. In an effort to raise awareness and money to fight this hideous disease, the EFTZone and the Lance Armstrong Foundation are teaming up. A percentage of our profits from externships will be donated to LAF off the top. Furthermore, we will soon offer quality tshirts, for example, in which all proceeds will go to directly LAF. Stay tuned to ongoing efforts. Thank you.
