EFT around the world series
AAMET International Representative for Portugal, Janet Broughton gives us an insight into her
EFT journey, and living and working in Portugal...
I was first introduced to EFT
in 2004 a year after I had bro- ken my back in a horse riding accident. I had begun practis- ing yoga in 1998, and as my yoga journey progressed it opened up many new pos- sibilities in the field of Energy healing.
At the end of 2004, 14 months after my accident, I walked with a stoop and took pain killers like sweets, having been referred to the hospital specialist I was told that this was the best I could achieve.
However I don’t take no for an answer so I was keen to explore al- ternatives to the recognised medical profession.
With a mind open to the possibili- ties I met an EFT Practitioner and in
4hrs I was walking straight and pain free – this was something I had to explore and as a teacher it is always my desire to share my knowledge.
Therefore over the next 4 yrs I be- came an EFT Advance Practitioner and Trainer, an NLP Practitioner, a Life Coach, a Reiki Master Teacher, Colour Psychologist and came full circle and began to train as a DRU Yoga Teacher, giving up my full time job to practise full-time.
Since beginning yoga I had at- tended a number of yoga retreats in a number of warmer European countries, and whilst I enjoyed them I knew I could enhance the offers, as my original training and career was in Hotel Management, so I was often heard to say “One day I’ll have my own yoga retreat – but – not whilst I’ve got my Mum and my cat” I’m an only child, single and childless, my father having died 20 yrs previous

my Mum was my only close relative, so I chose to stay in the UK. My cat was of a nervous nature and I could not envisage how I would get him safely abroad.
In 2009 my Mother was diagnosed and died of cancer in the space of 6 weeks, as I watched her fade away I knew what I had to do, live the dreams she had never had the courage to and decided I would find a way to transport my cat, all was underway when again very unex- pectedly he too died, they had left me free emotionally, physically and financially.
The idea of Portugal had been sewn a few years earlier by a friend who was thinking of moving there and then I saw a TV programme which featured Portugal and then every time I’d meet someone who had been, they would say “You’ll like Portugal”.
