Terms & Agreements for Empowerment EFT Trainings & Events

Any information that Lori Lamont may provide is not to be considered medical or legal advice. Lori Lamont is not a licensed therapist, psychologist, or healthcare practitioner. 

In an EFT Training session utilizing Emotional Freedom Techniques, Matrix Reimprinting, and/or Meta Consciousness Training with Lori Lamont, we will employ methods that focus on the body's energy system. These energy techniques are designed to complement, not replace, traditional medical or psychological care. Our approach includes methods such as EFT/Tapping, Somatic Trauma Processing, Matrix Reimprinting, Polyvagal Toning, and more.

Matrix Reimprinting Using EFT Training: Scope, Safety, and Memory Reconsolidation

This workshop incorporates Matrix Reimprinting using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), a therapeutic approach that intentionally engages with past lived experiences and emotional memory. Participants are guided to revisit earlier experiences in a structured and regulated manner to reduce the emotional and physiological impact those experiences may continue to have in the present.

Matrix Reimprinting using EFT is a form of therapy, though it is not clinical psychotherapy and does not serve as a substitute for medical, psychiatric, or psychological care.

Due to the nature of this approach involving a return to past experiences, emotional activation may occur. This is a normal part of the process and does not signify harm. The goal is not to induce distress, but to work with emotional memory while ensuring nervous system safety.

This practice is informed by the neurobiological process of memory reconsolidation. When a memory is purposefully and gently reactivated, it becomes temporarily open to being updated. During this critical window, new information, feelings of safety, and regulation can be absorbed by the nervous system. Consequently, the memory may reconsolidate with diminished emotional charge or threat response.

Memory reconsolidation does not erase memories or alter historical events. Instead, it facilitates the release of outdated survival responses so that past experiences no longer dictate present-day reactions in the same way.

Participation in EFT training is always voluntary. No participant is required to share personal details, disclose experiences publicly, or continue with an exercise that does not feel suitable. Participants are encouraged to pause, step back, or opt out at any time, without needing to provide an explanation.

If a participant feels overwhelmed or presents needs that exceed the limits of this EFT training workshop, the trainer will assist in grounding and recommend seeking appropriate external support. Trainers do not engage in crisis intervention or provide ongoing therapeutic care beyond the training context.

Throughout the EFT Training, we may have demonstrations and practices that provide real-life experiences of the Emotional Freedom Techniques and Matrix Reimprinting being taught. While scientific studies increasingly show the clinical significance of achieving positive outcomes with these modalities, individual responses can vary, leading to different results for each person. These real-life experiences might bring unresolved and distressing memories, traumas, and related emotions or physical sensations into your awareness. It’s possible that disturbing material may continue to surface even after the training concludes.

All participants agree to take full responsibility for their own physical and mental health throughout the EFT Training. Should any participant need additional support during the class, they are encouraged to notify the instructor or the Emotional Assistant.

Each participant in the EFT Training agrees to only address and share safe and appropriate experiences in both the demo and practice settings related to Emotional Freedom Techniques and Matrix Reimprinting. As a general rule, the safe and appropriate topics we will discuss are current, low-intensity events and issues unless otherwise instructed. 

If a participant has an issue with another person in the class, they are to notify Lori privately. Under no circumstances are complaints or grievances regarding another person in the class to be shared openly within the training.

All participants in the EFT Training sessions are required to maintain confidentiality regarding the details shared by other class participants. Each individual is encouraged to share their own personal experiences with Emotional Freedom Techniques, but must refrain from discussing any information related to other class members. 

Lori Lamont reserves the right to communicate the details of the EFT Trainings and the Matrix Reimprinting breakout rooms to her students, mentees, colleagues, and mentors solely for training or supervision purposes, ensuring that personal anonymity is strictly upheld.

To receive a certificate of attendance for the EFT Training course, all participants must attend every class. In the rare instance that a participant needs to miss class time, they must notify Lori in advance. Each situation will be assessed individually to determine if credit for the session can be awarded, particularly for those learning Emotional Freedom Techniques or Matrix Reimprinting. 

Classes start promptly, and all participants are expected to be ready to engage in learning at the scheduled time. If a participant is not present and has not informed Lori of a delay, they may not be allowed to join the class late. Each class is a safe container for learning, and having individuals coming and going can disrupt the experience for everyone, so this is to be avoided whenever possible.

Each participant in the EFT training will be provided with class resources, and in some cases, class recordings. All content related to Emotional Freedom Techniques and Matrix Reimprinting, along with the recordings, are the property of Lori Lamont, Empowerment EFT, and are not to be shared with anyone outside of the class.
