About Brad Yates:

Brad Yates is known internationally for his creative and often humorous use of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), also known as Tapping. Brad is the author of the best-selling children's book "The Wizard's Wish," the co-author of the best-seller "Freedom at Your Fingertips," and a featured expert in the film “The Tapping Solution.” He has also been a presenter at a number of events, including Jack Canfield's Breakthrough to Success, has done teleseminars with “The Secret” stars Bob Doyle and Dr. Joe Vitale, and has been heard internationally on a number of internet radio talk shows.  Brad also has over 1000 videos on YouTube, that have been viewed over 45 million times.  More info is available at www.tapwithbrad.com   

Brad grew up in California – back-and-forth between Southern California and the Bay Area. He graduated from UC Irvine with a degree in Theatre. He also studied acting in London, and has his Bachelor of Fun Arts from Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey Clown College.  Really. After traveling the world doing theatre, he went to Hollywood, where he met his wife. To supplement his modest income as an actor, he studied to become a hypnotherapist. After realizing that helping people with their personal development was his real passion, he discovered EFT, which eventually became his main modality. When YouTube showed up, he thought it would be cool to have a tapping video on there, and created Tap o’the Mornin’… expecting that to be his only online video.  Six months later he felt compelled to post one more… and then another… and now there are over 1200 available. Brad feels blessed to be able to share these tools to help folks feel better, do better and live better.

“We have that stress response that is like an electric fence around our comfort zone. The Tapping is a tool for relieving stress, so it’s like cutting the wires to the electric fence so we can expand our comfort zones. We can start to look at - maybe this fear that I have about money is a misunderstanding. Wait a minute, money is not the root of all evil. That is not even the correct translation of the quote. All relationships are not bad. It’s just my parents had a bad relationship. We can start to expand our possibilities as we give ourselves that permission to look at these situations and the confines that we have been in in terms of our overthinking and behavior. Suddenly, we open ourselves up to all kinds of great possibilities. – Brad Yates
