Upcoming Events - Aviva Chansky Guttmann, LMSW

We live in a fast-paced and stressful society which is perpetuated and reinforced by social media’s frenetic presence in our lives. Our nervous systems attempt to match this constant state of readiness and alertness but as a result, we often feel depleted and lacking emotional and energetic reserves. We are not designed to remain in this high activation state as often as the world encourages it.

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), also known as tapping, offer an easily available method of self-care and self-soothing based on Eastern methods of energy healing. Tapping involves gentle self-administered finger tapping of meridian points along our bodies. It is a non-invasive method of calming the nervous system. Some liken it to “emotional acupuncture” (without the needles).

Aviva will lead an interactive and informative workshop showing participants how to self-administer tapping, teaching about the meridian points, offering some background and history of EFT, and she will provide resource handouts for participants to take home.

Tapping for Serenity

In today’s fast-paced, stressful society, amplified by social media, our nervous systems struggle to keep up, leaving us depleted and emotionally drained. Humans are not designed to remain in a constant state of high alert, which can harm our well-being. Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), or tapping, provide a simple, self-care method to calm the nervous system. Rooted in Eastern energy healing practices, tapping involves gently tapping specific meridian points on the body with your fingers. Often referred to as “emotional acupuncture” without needles, it is a non-invasive way to promote relaxation.

Enhancing Connections Through Active Listening

Join us for an interactive and dynamic workshop in which participants will be guided in developing and practicing the skills of active listening. Many of us struggle with situations and relationships where we feel not fully understood for our intent, nor heard completely when we express ourselves. Aviva will teach the skills of active listening. Participants will enjoy guided practice exercises in these skills in addition to increasing empathy and validation skills. These skills will be useful and valuable in any interaction and relationship, offering more connection and clarity between partners.

Dates: 2/23/2026 – 2/23/2026
