This organization truly makes a difference helping people move forward in life after traumatic and difficult experiences. I personally believe this is how we can change the world making it a better place for all, by healing and helping each other heal.
Peaceful Heart Network stands as a beacon of hope and healing in a world that often struggles with the effects of conflict, displacement, and trauma. Through their tireless efforts, they have brought emotional resilience and trauma recovery to communities most in need, transforming countless lives with their innovative Trauma Tapping Technique (TTT).
At the heart of their success are two remarkable individuals, Gunilla Hamne and Ulf Sandström. Their deep compassion, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to healing have driven Peaceful Heart Network’s global impact. Gunilla and Ulf have developed and refined TTT into a simple yet profoundly effective tool for emotional recovery, teaching it in a way that anyone, regardless of age or background, can use. They have empowered thousands of individuals to take charge of their own healing, even in the most difficult of circumstances.
What sets Peaceful Heart Network apart is their focus on sustainable, lasting healing. Their work goes beyond immediate trauma relief – it fosters long-term emotional resilience, allowing communities to continue the healing process independently. This approach not only provides relief in the moment but also offers individuals the tools to rebuild their emotional strength and reengage with life after crises.
During a project I participated in with Ukrainian refugee children in Poland, the power of Peaceful Heart Network’s methods was truly evident. Gunilla and Ulf’s guidance and support from afar were indispensable. Their expert advice and tips on how to implement TTT allowed our team to effectively address the complex emotional needs of the children we worked with. Their insights gave us the confidence and knowledge needed to create a safe space for healing, providing these children with tools that will benefit them long after our work was done.
Gunilla and Ulf’s unwavering support, whether on the ground or from afar, has helped foster a sense of hope and resilience in the communities they touch. Their personal commitment to healing is reflected in the compassionate and respectful way they engage with every individual and community. Through their leadership, Peaceful Heart Network is not only addressing the effects of trauma but is also empowering individuals to take control of their emotional well-being, creating a ripple effect that extends far beyond their direct involvement.
Peaceful Heart Network is transforming lives, one heart at a time, and their work is a testament to the boundless potential for healing, peace, and resilience in even the most challenging of situations. With Gunilla Hamne and Ulf Sandström at the helm, this organization is building a more compassionate, peaceful world for us all.
Peaceful Heart Network, is for me an old story that began in 2007 in the DRC when I met Gunilla in the training on "Though Field Therapy", with a tapping technique (TTT) on some specific body areas (points) for a patient concentred on his history or active painful memory.
It was a great experience, I went to practice the technique to confront the theory learned with the reality of my beneficiaries as I was a Psychosocial Assistant at the time in a local NGO in Bukavu City East of DRC which is very experienced in Child Protection and care of children in complicated situations /"Enfants en Situations particuriement difficile" (ESPD)-in french) including children released from armed forces and groups, unaccompanied children, children accused of witchcraft, street children (in rupture of family ties), children victims of sexual violence and exploitation at work, and victims of sex slavery. in general, children affected by armed conflicts and economic marginalization as well as refugees and displaced children from wars in Congo, Rwanda, Burundi, etc.
I started to practice this technique on myself whenever I felt depressed and anxious, I realized that it worked well, I recovered so quickly and completely.
This is how I began to use this technique on patients (children and other patients in our charge/supervised) after obtaining these amazing results.
Every time I used this technique, the results were good. Our beneficiaries became less and less aggressive, more focused, much calmer, slept well with fewer nightmares and insomnia, and had fewer self-punishment tendencies (feelings of suicide or homicide, self-harm, or personal condemnation) which were the major and difficult symptoms to treat with the different techniques and therapies we were using before.
Having seen these results, I reported to Gunilla to thank her and encourage her to train more people in the region. We then formed with her a training duo, trained more than 843 people from 15 women's and youth associations, local NGOs, international NGOs, and state health structures via the mental health coordination and specialized center in neuropsychiatry in the city of Bukavu, territory of Kalehe, Mwenga, Walungu and Kabare in the province of South Kivu then the territory of Nyiragongo, Masisi, Rutchuru, Beni and the city of Goma in North Kivu; two provinces most affected by armed conflicts and violence of all kinds in the DRC since the 1990 and whose trauma rate is very high.
TTT has been a relief for psychologists, sociologists, psychosocial assistants, social workers, Counselors, Nurses, Medical doctors, military and police officers trained in prisons, transit and child orientation centers, support and care centers, shelters for victims of armed conflicts, rape and sexual violence, hospitals, Police and military camps, psychotherapeutic clinics, the process of psychological rehabilitation of victims of wars and sexual violence,...
I have been committed since 2007 to being an ambassador of TTT and Peaceful Heart Network in Africa / in regions affected by armed conflicts; whenever I can carry high the standard of TTT / PHN, I do so because I know well the therapeutic effects and its impact in reducing and preventing the consequences of stress, trauma and depression for people affected by armed conflicts. This is how I was able to train several mental health, protection, and education staff for children victims of Boko Haram in Borno State - North-East Nigeria, in Maiduguri, Hajji camp; in South Sudan, Jonglei secondary Health care, in Lankien, an area affected by intercommunal violence and armed conflicts; in the DRC, especially in Kassai Central while the province was affected by a humanitarian crisis due to the Kamwena Nsapu conflict, in Ituri, South and North Kivu, regions with a chronic humanitarian crisis of more than 20 years due to wars and armed conflicts, disasters, etc.
Recently during the health crisis triggered by the Ebola Virus in Beni and COVID-19 worldwide; we used TTT for stress management during the lockdown/curfew and quarantine period in Uganda, DRC, and Burundi (online and face-to-face sessions in my family).
Peaceful Heart Network, which I got to know through TTT initiated by Gunilla and Ulf, has brought innovation to the world of psychosocial management of acute stress, cumulative stress, PTSD and secondary trauma, and burnout/psychological overload. It is also a key element of personal, inter, and intrapersonal development and so is an important factor in building peace and a healthy environment.
Germando Kagomba Barath,
Gunilla and Ulf are genuine, heart centred people who give their knowledge freely to those who need it most. The technique they teach is so simple, so safe and so effective, and moreover, they make it fun and teach with a light and playful touch intertwined with deep empathy and care.
Ulf and Gunilla are so professional. They have really contributed to the spread of this effective and free metod of selfregulating emotions and trauma worldwide.
I have worked with Peaceful Heart Network for many years, supporting their volunteers with Verbal First Aid training, providing a chapter in TTT on Verbal First Aid, and spreading the word about their extremely effective, extremely easy, extremely vital work with refugees, with prisoners, and with people suffering from trauma. Ulf Sandstrom and Gunilla Hamne have offered a gift to the world that exists, is passed along, and has become a movement of great joy and well being. Long may its effects bless all who hurt and all who share this gift from their shining hearts. Judith Simon Prager
Så mycket hjärta och kompetens i PHN och en generös och alltigenom välvillig och engagerad vägledning av Ulf och Gunilla.
En effektiv och enkel metod, hjälpsam och omedelbar.
Gunilla & Ulf are doing outstanding training with a follow up by monthly online meetings and WhatsApp group interaction. Though I am already certified @PHN it‘s so great to engage in both of the opportunities for sharing & learning in an ongoing process. As a volunteer I appreciate this method, because it‘s trauma sensitive and less words are needed. Also it‘s so easy to learn & pass it on and also the effects of reducing stress-symptoms and building resiliency is a benefit for all who are practicing it. I appreciate the kindful & supporting manner of every single training group I joined in. Kind greetings Jutta / Shanti

I have been with Peaceful Heart Network from the beginning AND I have loved every minute. I use and share TTT with military, veterans, their family members, First Responders and their families, with youth, in the board room, in the work room, at conferences and in trainings unceasingly. WHY???? Because it is easy to learn and use as well as FUN!!!

The people and backbone of this wonderfully humane organisation are simply amazing. A lot of people around the world talk about how change could and should come. Peaceful Heart Network DO the change!
In my experience, one of the most acute areas of humanity for us to deal with, is trauma and stress. PHN seems to have reached hundreds of thousands of people with their stress- & trauma recovery models over dozens of countries. For me THAT'S a real contribution to humanity. And from personal experience I know that they all do it from a prestigeless place of love, compassion and the very best interest for the single individual as well as the humanity as a whole.
PHN is inspiring.
PHN is hope.
PHN is humanity as it best!

Two determined and fun pioneers in the field of non- verbal emotional first aid techniques. Determined to make the seemingly impossible both possible and easy with their Trauma Tapping Technique (TTT) they teach and people reap positive results worldwide. “Heal one teach one” is a motto of theirs, encouraging the grass roots spread of preventative health care energy techniques, seeking to improve the world’s emotional health.
TTT is my ‘go to’ mind body tool for easing headaches, tummy issues, procrastination, stuck ness and general ‘pissed-off-ness’. I am lucky to not require it for the extreme uses it has been tasked with effectively helping such as PTSD in Rwanda genocide.
Ever-ready to help, with their ever-ready TTT technique. What a pioneering pair of humanitarians. Thank you Ulf and Gunilla
The Peaceful Heart Organization plays a central role in offering effective and secure healing resources to individuals and communities grappling with stress and trauma. Numerous groups and organizations have found success in enhancing their contributions to creating a more harmonious world through the inclusion of TTT (Trauma Tapping Technique, developed by this organization) in their toolbox.
I got in touch with PHN in 2015 when I needed help with managing the trauma and sleeping issues that I had been through at the time. I then volunteered to help people who have been through the same experiences that I had.
The people who are engaged in this nonprofit are of the most competent people to work with and learn from with when it comes to help people with self help techniques such as trauma tapping technique and heavening to deal with trauma and stress. The work they put on teaching people selfishly over boarders is incredible and changes many lives all over the world for the better.
In August 2022 I started attending online training sessions with the Peaceful Heart Network. In March 2023, I became a certified Trauma Tapping Technique (TTT) volunteer. The quality of training and support provided by Gunilla and Ulf is outstanding. The robust model they have created and developed allows this self-help for trauma technique to be easily taught and used by anyone worldwide. Hundreds of thousands have already benefited from TTT.

The Peaceful Heart Network (PHN) provides free training webinars in a Trauma Tapping Technique, that helps free people from the effects of traumatic experiences. I have already used this amazing tool to support people in my community, who otherwise would not have been able to afford access to such therapy. The effects are truly life changing. I can only imagine the value and impact this non-profit organization has in the most vulnerable communities of the world.
The PHN is clearly run with love, dedication and authenticity, and with a desire to give every traumatized person a safe space.
The Peaceful Heart Network has methods that are amazingly effective in reducing, and in some cases completely eliminating, uncomfortable feelings. These are powerful methods that open up the possibility of increased quality of life for people who would otherwise live more isolated lives.
It has given me tools for getting back to my sane and calmed baseline.
I can teach these simple tools to my peers, in fact is my favorite tool to show the magic of TTT.
It has a great easy to use app, and you will see calming results immediately.

They have help so much in stablishing connections to and sending energetic and psicological help to the displaced population from Venezuela. I have shared the app with my family in Venezuela. It is a extraordinary organization that does so much for people affected by trauma around the world. There are no words to thank them.
They are dynamos in bringing Peace and releases from Traumas/Stress all over the world. Ulf has worked with the Peace Lab for podcasts that reach tens of thousands. They use music, story telling, and psychosomatic practices so effectively integrated for the particular 'audience'. Thank you.
They are manifesting some of my personal Vision of Peace: “Because I believe total Peace is Possible, I am called to BE Peace in a way that Excites in others their vision of Peace resulting in Peace IN Everything, Everything WITH Peace.”
This is a beautiful organization with beautiful kind caring people. The Peaceful Heart Network takes a compassionate view in all things they do. They care about reducing suffering and providing for the person in a way that their present and future is full of life-giving potential, no matter their past. There is grace and strength present in this organization---one is in safe hands when working with them.
Jag fick väldigt bra hjälp av peaceful heart network, som lärde mig att använda Havening då jag fått besvär av ptsd.
I have learned tapping by Ulf Sandström and know him as a remarkable person who is truly committed to making the world a better place. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
So many lives changed, the results speak for themselves. Not only that, they freely train and equip others to reproduce their good work.

The Peaceful Heart Network offer the most amazing self help tool to people in need for a fast and safe way to deal with distress and trauma. Their work is truly invaluable!
I always like to recommend the site to poeple with anxiety and tramatic symptoms because the imagery makes it very easy to understand and use the effective tapping tool!
Thank you for the commitment!
This organization has taken a complex subject and presents it in an easy to understand manner that is readily accessible to all. So valuable for everyone's health and peace of mind.
I took part in a 24 Hours of Tapping marathon hosted by Gene Monterastelli which was to raise funds for the Peaceful Heart Network and I was blown away by their ethos to bring their Trauma Tapping Techniques as a self-help tool to those most in need across all socio-economic barriers who have been ravaged by Big-T trauma.
This is so aligned with how I feel tapping should be shared to reach all who are willing to embrace this powerful holistic tool. I loved their share on how through doing silent tapping it is possible to prevent ab-reactions while tapping with big groups whose trauma is very present in their reality.
I now use the Trauma Tapping Techniques not only with all my clients as a safe way to introduce self-tapping on their own to grow their confidence in owning their inner healing power too, but also on myself as part of my morning tapping routine. I am a true believer that' Tapping only works if you use it!'
This is exactly what the Peaceful Heart Network does - Bravo to their heart and tangible love for humanity. They make this world a better place!!!
Margot Khan - EFT International Practitioner - www.tappingwell.com
With their Peaceful Heart Network, Gunilla and Ulf do great jobs, not only by teaching the tapping methods but also by supporting people with traumatic experiences.
Their website and workshops are valuable treasure chests full of resources and connecting stories for both professionals and those affected.
I am very impressed by Gunilla‘s and Ulf's generosity and their enthusiastic efforts to share their knowledge and experiences with as many people as possible.
Their extraordinary and beneficial way of teaching has a great impact on countless people around the world. It makes it very easy for practitioners to learn and pass on the methods.
In my work as a learning therapist and my non-profit work, I find tapping to be a constructive and relieving way to deal with traumatic experiences, fears and blocks. The methods are easy to use for both children and adults. Especially at a time when the number of people affected by anxiety disorders is increasing so much because of the pandemic, climate change and war, I am very grateful that I can pass on tapping as an easy-to-learn and easy-to-use first-aid method so that people can help themselves in anxiety-provoking moments.
Good luck to you, dear Gunilla and Ulf!

I am part of a small group and we do healing. We have different methods and we work on each other and whoever requests prayer. We stumbled across your site for Tapping and signed up for the 2 part Zoom meeting. It is extremely beneficial. We did not know that it is not necessary to speak through the tapping and identify all your feelings. This has been a stumbling block for me. Not knowing what to say. So watching Winkie is wonderful and I can now tap and feel confident that it works. I even got my Son to Tap with me. It was so heart warming to hear the testimonies from PTST patients who have overcome addictions and have found relief from all sorts of traumas. God Bless this group and keep doing what you do.
Hi, my name is Lisa from Australia and I needed to get up at 4am to attend the training on the Trauma Tapping Technique- it was definitely worth the effort! Gunilla Hamne & Ulf Sandstrom are great teachers and I have read the whole book as well and their work has significantly enhanced my work in many ways.
It is a delight to write this review for Peaceful Heart Network. As a health care provider, I often suggest the use of their tapping and havening protocols to help people with stress, pain and other conditions. I highly recommend using their training and spreading the word!

Important, effective, friendly, and easy-to-use stress-relief and trauma-reloef technique. It doesn't get better than this!
Det finns inte tillräckligt med ord eller stjärnor som kan förklara och lyfta den sanna vikten i arbetet i och kring denna organisation. Med Ulf & Gunilla i spetsen så är dess arbete, på alla nivåer och dimensioner, ytterst nödvändig och mest meningsfull då individer, unga som gamla, lär sig effektiv hjälp till självhjälp OCH att hjälpa andra. En mycket viktig nyckel till framgången står att finna i att ingen behöver minnas ord, bara positioner. Därför är GHN en skola som, på flera sätt, inte pratar utan visar hur man med enkla medel skapar empati och medmänsklighet, att oavsett var vi kommer ifrån är vi alla ett, att vi hör ihop och att när vi ger får vi mångfalt tillbaka. Sannare och bättre titel på en organisation står nog inte att finna!
Jag har främst utforskat TTT på mig själv, i och inför olika situationer, med fantastiska resultat och jag kommer inom en snar framtid certifiera mig så att jag kan använda det fullt ut på alla mina klienter.
Tack Ulf & Gunilla, ni är fantastiska!

I was skilled in TTT by Gunilla and Ulf. From time to time I use TTT in the eastern part of the Ukraine. In these workshops I give it to therapists (psychiatrics, physicians and psychotherapists), psychologists, veterans and crisis honorary workers to help the lots of traumatized internally refugees and veterans. Of course there are traumatized people in these seminar groups, too. I watched a lot of fast and fantastic results to occur right in these live demonstrations in front of participants, already.
Later on, a lot of participants gave their incredible stories to me, they experienced when they worked in hospitals, rehabilitation centres and in the fields of war as well. Treated people calm down very soon, nightmares and flash backs stop, wound healing processes increase, less medics are needed...
One psychiatric doctor in Charkiv had to leave seminar at the first day after just a few rounds of tapping because of an emergency call. Next morning she apologized about and told her story:
As she arrived at the hospital she came to that patient who was in a flash back. Before applying medication she decided to try the tapping, even though she didn't knew very well about it by then. After a few rounds of tapping she didn't need medication anymore and she (and not only she) was fascinated by the effects, she could watch by herself...
I could tell dozens of such stories by now, even of my own experiences out of my practice in Berlin, Germany. Veterans of Vietnam, Afghanistan, Falkland, concerned people of 9-11 who live in Berlin, raid and accident victims, abused and tortured people, and so on.
This technique works!!! And it is a great first aid help for all kinds of traumatization's. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!
Hans-Hermann Baertz, EFT-Institut Berlin, Germany
Peaceful Heart Network uses evidence-based practices to support people on their healing process and in crisis. Additionally, Peaceful Heart makes training affordable and available internationally. I have been connected with PHN for the past six years, as a trainee, and now as a collaborator, using their tools to serve incarcerated persons and in support of Bhutan during the COVID crisis. Fabulous organization!
They bring a very useful method that calms the mind and speeds up the healing process. Also very easy to learn and spread. A must-have in the psychological toolbox.
I have been using and teaching through workshops the traditional E.F.T. (Tapping) in my practice for over 20 years with great results. But once my clients went home they were all facing the same challenge and often never used it on their own. With T.T.T. (Trauma Tapping technique) where we don't need to use words to heal through our trauma, it was a game changer.
Gunilla and Ulf are dedicated to this work and have done incredible work in places where many of us would be afraid to go. They have changed the lives of so many where hope appeared to be non existing.
I feel very blessed to have had the chance to come across their work and working towards my certification. So we can all be part of the healing
Thank you Gunilla and Ulf
They do great work around the world using the Trauma Tapping Technique. I use the technique myself to let go of childhood trauma that I can't seem to articulate effectively. I always feel better. I have to thank the Peaceful Heart Network for bringing this technique into my life.
-- L. Valtri
Absolutely brilliant, pioneering, generous, fresh, and trustworthy, everyone would benefit from having this information which is given so clearly and kindly. The information doesn’t just help us understand our human lives, it also enables us to develop skills to shape ourselves, to free ourselves from the results of experiences which were distressing to us in some way and skills which we can use to move forward or to help other people.
If all this seems just too good, or too simple to be true. Test it out for yourself.
I suggest Tapping to young people and their parents that survived war and torture and even with those youngsters who survived other trauma in childhood as sexual abuse and maltreatment.
I suggest Tapping in combination with psychotherapy in different kinds as Ego State Therapy (EST), Internal Family Systems (IFS). Lifespan Integration (LI), TF-CBT, EMDR and Neurofeedback.
I work in a Trauma unit at a Child psychiatric clinic in the south of Sweden.
I am a psychologist, psychotherapist and supervisor.
I was well acquainted with tapping before being introduced to the PH Network, but when I saw the combination of their work and their practice, I was blown away. These people walk their talk. I immediately gave them money. Their practice of Trauma Tapping Technique is simple and it works. They want everyone to learn to do it as "emotional first aid". If you haven't checked them out, please do! They have come up with something that is simple and that works well.
An incredible non-profit that I wish the whole world knew about. Check out their website. It may well support or save the life of someone you know.
This organization stands behind its commitment to bringing the Trauma Tapping Technique to the entire world, and at little to no cost. They host free seminars, on a donation basis only, teaching TTT in various situations and settings - even though it can be used anywhere by anyone. I took two different seminars last month which was amazing. Gunilla and Ulf brought in folks specific to the topic. The first seminar was for refugees, in which folks from a Poland organized child services and TTT for displaced Ukrainian children. The attendees were privileged to get a birds-eye view into how TTT is being used at this very time. The second seminar was on Addiction Recovery, in which Gunilla and Ulf had directors of two prison groups that teach TTT to inmates. Inmates shared their stories of how TTT has helped them. Peaceful Heart is an organization for the people and the work they do is unbelievable. I fully support this organization to be recognized as a Great Nonprofit. It truly is and so much more!
These wonderful humanitarians generously train other facilitators to do what they do, which is to respond to world crises. They are first responders themselves. They have a book, an app, several youtubes and a website to help spread the word on how to successfully treat trauma. I have trained with them.
I'm very inspired by what Gunilla and Ulf have created and the amazing work they are doing in the world. This organization is a powerful force for good on this planet!
The hearts of Gunilla & Ulf are so big and generous. The techniques provided by the foundations are highly effective and easy to use. I've used them personally and with my clients to relieve stress and trauma. I highly recommend the Peaceful Heart Network.
I learned and became certified in the Trauma Tapping Technique from the Peaceful Heart Network. This is a free technique that PHN teaches which has been extremely beneficial in my work with refugees. I highly recommend them.
The collaboration with Peaceful Heart Network allowed us to develop a community recovery program for internally displaced people in the DRC and to create a network of volunteers who transmitted the tapping exercises in the bush, in places inaccessible to us. The people who regularly participate in the tapping exercises have been able to set up income-generating activities for the community and thus finance the projects in the bush themselves. Peaceful Heart Network: a committed, humane organization that listens and promotes co-learning and mutual enrichment. Our NGO Epiceries is deeply grateful to them for all the contribution, support and sharing since 2015. We look forward to further collaboration. Good luck and well done!
Véronique Isenmann, founder
This is such a wonderful and very helpful technique this organization shares with so many traumatized people! I'm so glad I got to know them.
I met Gunilla in DRC while doing research with women who had been raped in war and with child soldiersand their experiences. She was doing Peaceful Heart work and shared with me about tapping. I was amazed at the results and the uptake of her infomation by the local people. Her dedication to travel the world, especially visiting low resource settings to offer this simple yet profound technique to those suffering from trauma for a multitude of reasons, really impressed me. She works tirelessly to not only bring releif to people but to teach and empower people to perform this mental first aid to others. Learning tapping is such a gift as it requires no equipment, brings people together and gives people a tool to lessen suffering. Mental Health has historically been underrecognised and left untreated in low-resource settings and this charity has really focused on a critical population that is in deep need of releif.
The Peaceful Heart Network is an outstanding example of compassion, kindness and generosity. I have been sharing their information and tools with everyone: clients, students, parent, coworkers, and the public and ask that they pass it on. To paraphrase an old song " I'd like to teach the world to TAP in perfect harmony" The Peaceful Heart Network does much to make that happen. Thank you.

The PHN is probably the most inspiring organization I've ever known. I first learned of their work in Africa some years ago and chose to support them financially. I love how they've modified EFT 'tapping' to fit local cultures and to make it easily learnable. They've empowered SO many healers over the years, to effectively work with some of the worst possible traumas.
It great to know how to do tapping and Having, to help myself and to tell other people about this. Anette Sidkvist Beauty of India Sweden
Having had very powerful personal experiences of releasing old trauma both in workshops with them and on my own using their technique (releasing emotions around childhood neglect, teenage heartbreak, present day work situations, etc.), I began to use these techniques with my own life coach clients on anything from abuse to divorce and beyond.
The positive shifts in perception and emotion can be astounding. People who haven't encountered such techniques before are often surprised. I also use tapping for myself as a way of avoiding secondary trauma from my work.
The simple, hands-on, immediately applicable, cross-cultural, no-language-barrier healing technique that Ulf and Gunilla have developed and that they teach to others for self-care can be life changing!
This nonprofit works and supports amazing transformations in the most traumatized and under-served places, returning personal power and hope for the future to deeply traumatized and disenfranchised groups around the globe.
I hope more places will have access to them and support them in the future!
I first heard about Peaceful Heart five years ago at an EFT group just before I flew to Kenya on my work with girls fleeing FGM.
In just one day they opened our eyes to the possibility of making vast emotional changes with people suffering PTSS or anyone in physical emotional turmoil . We learnt the technique , the aspiration of getting people to gain self help for their trauma .
For me it was revolutionary . They gave me the confidence to try this abroad and it worked …
There is NO psychological support in many areas abroad , in institutions where trauma is prevalent ie prisons , refugee camps .and schools . I’ve seen first hand the difference their teaching has grown . Pyramid schemes get bad press but this is what happens here . One person teaches five which teaches 50 and so on . It will change the dynamics of families as mothers do it to their children and so on. .
Gunilla and Ulf have created psychological support where there is none, and for that they deserve as much recognition and applauds as possible .
For three years now, since 2020 I have been working with teachers from 20 rural primary schools in Kisumu Kenya whom I trained on tapping and they then trained over 4000 children. The results are great! Children have registered improvement in grades,class concentration, reduced exam anxities and reduced truancy.The children really enjoy tapping .They have shared it with their parents too!
This organization provides amazing trauma-healing services for people in countries who have little access to this support. They also provide low-cost, accessible trainings and resources for people who want to learn their methods and help others in an efficient, effective and simple manner. I highly recommend it.
I attended a virtual workshop about EFT with this wonderful charity. By sharing their knowledge about dealing with trauma they are able to make a tremendous difference in places around the globe which may not ordinarily receive this kind of support.
Peaceful Heart creates an amazing and effective healing space for everyone. All are welcome here. I have used their resources and attended webinar events and these are completely uplifting and inspiring. Plus you always learn something practical. This organization is really - and I mean really - changing lives and creating peace across borders. Thank you Ulf, Gunilla and team for all the great work you do.
I have known about them for many years and have the greatest respect and appreciation for their true humanitarian work. They help so many people heal from trauma with simpel but effective techniques like tapping.
The book "Resolving Yesterday" gives knowledge, insights and how to use tapping as a self help technique.
I wish they could expand all over the planet sicne their knowledge and way of seeing life is needed in so many places. Thank you for your wonderful important work for humanity!

I met Gunilla Hamne about seven years ago on a workshop she was giving on tapping and the workd that Peaceful Heart Network is doing in Africa and other places.
I am a tapper since 2005 and is working with the clients since then. Great results. I was so impressed by the dedication, knowledge and experience that she and the network has.
They are such an inspiration! They way they spread the tapping as first aid kit for emotional problems like stress, anxiety and healing traumas.
Since then I have introduced them with total confidence in a tapping project that I initiated in Kenya for children in Primary schools. They quickly send their best instructor Placide and "my" project really was boosted.
I am certified now in their technique TTT = Trauma Tapping Technique. I wanted to learn too and be part of their wonderful work.
There are not words enough for their skilles, generosity, caring loving and professional way of spreading tapping (TTT) to the much needed humanity in many countries.
The photo is from when their instructor came to one of the schools in "my" project ( we are a solid team not just me)
5-Stars is not enough to recognize the contribution made by Peaceful Hearts! Their commitment to decreasing human suffering across the world goes beyond expectations.
Ulf and Gunilla are making such a difference in this world by helping to heal human suffering and by teaching others to do the same. I loved my training with them and recommend them highly to colleagues and clients.
Does Every-body need Peace right now?!?
What I know is my body certainly does.
From what I observe going on around me, others' bodies need Peace, too.
Peaceful Heart Network is doing their share -- and then some -- to promote healing from the inside out.
I'd like to think it's like concentric circles: from teaching/facilitating learning experiences that exponentially increase the peace, to em"body"ing the peace, one-by-one.
Peaceful Heart Network is both Being *and* Doing.
They walk the talk, living and loving, each one as One!

Some might have escaped the devastating events of the past year.
No one was exempt from the effects of environmental catastrophes, political turmoil, economic uncertainty, and violent conflict whether local or international.
The Peaceful Heart Network's effort made a difference in mitigating the traumatic outcomes of these events for people wherever they went -- in person or via the internet (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Od5ql7hNP4w).
They even offered classes to their professional colleagues at no cost.
What a way to walk the talk and exponentially increase their impact!
They might not always know where the need might arise.
You can count on them to rise to the need wherever souls need to transcend circumstances enough to overcome challenges.
Ulf and Gunilla have an amazing way of sharing about trauma and demonstrating how Trauma Tapping Technique can help the body to process it without words. I love their story of how, as journalists, they could not continue to simply report on human tragedy without doing something to help. They have transformed that into a mission to help humans heal from such tragedies. As a trauma therapist, I find their work helpful to me in my practice and inspiring and hopeful that people like this exist.
Peaceful Heart Network is doing some of the most important work on the planet -- healing to heal emotional wounds of those most impacted by human cruelty and injustice. The tools for change are cutting-edge, the offerings powerful and practical, the founder's ethics impeccable. An outstanding organization in every way.
The quality and integrity of the resources and training offered by a peaceful Heart Network are great. They have helped so many people all over the world and will continue to do so. In these challenging times we more organizations like this!

-Jondi Whitis, MTOT USA
Nothing is more inspiring than people who devote time to making life better for others. Ulf & Gunilla’s tireless enthusiasm, professional integrity and compassion to harness the best possible skills to help people most in need is outstanding. Observing your excellent work has restored some of my faith in humanity. May your contagious, joyful dedication and shared learning inspire others! Peaceful Heart Network deserves to receive abundant support to thrive and continue to offer your expertise to all the lives you touch.
I have shared Peaceful Heart Network’s free materials with my clients who are living with PTSD and anxiety. It is simple and so effective,
In addition to the healing services they provide all over the world, I have experienced the trainings that increase my own skill level in treating and responding to traumatized people and communities. Their hearts are in everything they do! The Peaceful Heart Network is exactly what its title states!
Gunilla and UIf and their Peaceful Heart Network are amazing. They have an enormous number of resources including a book, handouts, an app, videos, training, and more. They provide these self-help tools for free and for donations in order to get their life-changing and empowering tools out into the world and to those who need them the most. In addition, they partner with other humanitarian groups that also want to freely share self-help tools. Gunilla and Ulf and their associates are very responsive and encouraging to people who reach out to them for guidance. I have shared the TTT (trauma/tension tapping technique) with NGOs in Africa and the U.S. and with individuals with very positive impacts. And, I regularly use TTT and other tools they have recommended with great benefit to myself and my family as well. Gunilla and Ulf are enormously giving and have changed the lives of literally hundreds of thousands of people, many of whom have been suffering from severe trauma and previously unremitting symptoms of PTSD for many years prior to learning from Gunilla, Ulf, and others trained by them. I honestly cannot say enough good about the Peaceful Heart Network---what it has to offer and the enormous difference that simple to employ techniques can make in people's lives, and about how they operate as an organization. They live their mission each and every day and have made the world a vastly better place because of it. They recognized a need in the world---there is so much suffering and much of that suffering can be alleviated without limited and costly professional intervention as is the usual Western model. Their work has put healing into the hands of those who are suffering and what a gift that is.
Open hearted willingness to assist with healing the most traumatic situations.
Providing services that is needed by everyone from stressed persons to highly traumatized with useful and practical applications for healing and restoring balance. Honest, reliable and forthright and effective.

The TTT technique that Ulf and Gunilla created to support people with serious emotional and physical trauma is extraordinary.
TTT has been an exceptionally beneficial addition to the techniques I use to help people release trauma, abuse, stress, old habits/beliefs and even fears and physical symptoms around an illness. TTT is quick and simple to use. It helps one gently release the heightened emotions and return to a peaceful state, which is beneficial both emotionally and physically.
TTT has been helpful when I’m helping a person who struggles to find the words to express what they feel or experienced because they don’t need to say anything. It supports those who don’t want to vocalize what has happened to them yet allows them to still release those emotions. It even beautifully supports those who don’t speak the same language as I do.
Personally, I find TTT very relaxing. I have added it to my toolbox of techniques to keep myself emotionally fit and sound in order to help others.
The Peaceful Heart Network app is also another tool that children and adults both can use to remind themselves of what TTT points to tap and to be guided in the process.
TTT is greatly beneficial for all ages and I support Ulf and Gunilla’s mission to help everyone find inner peace.

I first came across the work of this organisation a couple of years ago and was so impressed that I trained in Trauma Tapping with them. What they do and the contribution they make to alleviating suffering is just astonishing along with the passion and enthusiasm they have for their work. My training with them has gone on to help many of my clients who battle with anxiety and PTSD making their stress more manageable and therefore contributing to the quality of their lives.
This is a truly remarkable outfit. I have known its two principals for a number of years and had time to watch their actions match their words, and operate in the utmost integrity. They are very conscious of their action plans and making the most of the contributions sent them, and a fine example of a non-profit, and how to walk the walk.

This organization is unusual in that they practice what they preach. Their commitment - and DELIVERY - of what they say they'll do is outstanding. Impeccable to their word, their work, their humanitarian mission. I have watched them for years, taken their classes 2-3 times and still find this all to be true. - Jondi Whitis, MTOT
During one of our workshops with about 100 vulnerable girls at a school in South Africa, a 13-year old stood up and told her story about sexual abuse. She was brave and angry. Her story touched the hearts of everyone in the rom and soon, many girls were sobbing - as only young teenagers can. As the facilitator, I realised that the young girl had opened the proverbial can of worms. I did not know what to do to help these girls. There was just too many of them to apply the kinds of therapy I knew.
I recalled the tapping technique and within a few minutes, all the girls were tapping each other. the tapping technique was holding us. This allowed us to end the session with a sense of peace and togetherness.

I have been offering psychosocial counseling for refugees from all over the world in Germany. TTT is always part of what I give them. There are amazing stories. Some clients started to share their experiences among others. Mothers start tapping with their children and a woman offered TTT to friend who experienced violence during the night. I learned TTT for free and this is how I share it.
I am so impressed by the work that Gunilla and Ulf are doing! I also have had the privilege to attend their training in TTT and it is has added great value in my work as a therapist. So many thanks to your knowledge and the energy you spread around the world.
Peaceful Heart Network helped me, my autistic son and people around me by teaching me Trauma Tapping Technique which I will use all of my life.
Using this technique 4-5 times a week helps me feel much better in so many ways.
They are helping many people around the world with love and empathy.
For me this is love, oneness and compassion which our world needs more especially in these days.
Thank you Peaceful Heart network ... I am very grateful for your amazing work!

The TTT that Ulf and Gunilla teach is so very simple and effective. I have used it with a number of children; it is amazingly effective and creates rapid improvement in childhood angst (eg fear of the fires here in CA, fear of parents getting Covid, etc.)
Ulf and Gunilla have a wonderful heart and amazing professionalism. They share their knowledge and resources with the needed communities. Thank you for all you do!
They are lovely people who are doing essential work in the world. Their work focuses on providing skills and support for resolving trauma. The skills are easy and user-friendly. Highly recommend connecting with them and sharing the tools!
Gunilla and Ulf at Peaceful Hearts Network are true humanitarians. They provide a wonderful service to many communities in need around the world. They are wonderful teachers and I am grateful to be learning effective techniques to teach others to help build resilience and treat trauma
I first learnt about Peaceful Heart Network and TTT when Gunilla Hamne sent a trainer by the name Placide Nkubuito to our school in Migori Kenya to come and train our teachers and kids on TTT. This event marked the beginning of tapping in our school.we have never looked back since then.Tapping has helped us improve the concentration of our learners in class.Their confidence levels have been on the rise lately.They can now speak confidently in front of gatherings.Stress levels have declined considerably.I appreciate Peaceful Heart Network for enabling us acquire valuable skills which have helped us combat trauma,stress and phobia among our kids.We hope to spread the love to more teachers and kids in schools and institutions in Migori and beyond.
I thank God for Peaceful Heart Network. I had spent almost all my life traumatized. I was traumatized since I was only just about six years old. I have been living in very difficult situations almost up to date, but by God's grace and mercy I just push on.
This affected my life very negatively. My face was off and on full of wrinkles. Whether there was no wrong and everything seemed right, it hardly made any difference. My thoughts could be reflected on my face. You can imagine the traffic jam of the flashbacks on their way to visit my little mind.
I was born in 1969 but just two years ago when I met Gunilla in Koboko for a workshop on Trauma healing. I learned TTT, self havening and a few other techniques. I came back from Koboko on fire knowing I had got something too precious that was missing in my life. I had got peace. Yeah, yeah, I had really got PEACE since time I'm memorial.
I arrived home late evening and the following morning just after breakfast, my lovely wife Evalyne Kiden looking at me straight on my face said, "today you look different". Her observation was absolutely right, so the conversation continued to flow on why I looked different. Today, every single day of my life I continue changing for the better. My elderly sister Celina Okuyo testifies this fact and also members of the church I pastor are all fun of TTT.
I pastor the church, Sudan Pentecostal Church, Pasu Healing Center in Palorinya Settlement camp. I am decided to spread TTT and other techniques I learned from Peaceful Heart Network to as far as I can get to. Within Palorinya Settlement I have been able to get to Budri, Keguru, Belameling, Dama, Morobi and Waka. Together with Gunilla and Placide with their support we made together to Yumbe District to another camp called Ambiya in Bidibidi settlement camp. I came back yesterday from Nakasongola district where I trained people on these techniques. Many people are traumatized and struggling with life. According to my own experience I say all they need are these techniques. To wherever I have been, healings and deliverance have been my accompaniments.
The Gospel, prayer and TTT are collinear. They are each independent and can accomplish each a task on its own. But together, they produce im measurable yields. I love to organize as many workshops as possible on trauma healing to save the dying vulnerables.
Examples of TTT in the Church
PHN, with Gunilla and Ulf as the hearts, minds and actors in the lead, is doing amazing work with not only spreading trauma awareness but also by providing concrete tools to deal with stress and trauma. Their openness and curiosity to learn more and continuously improve their work is exhibited by engagement in research on TTT. Working in the field of peace and development, I see TTT as a potentially revolutionary approach to healing trauma as well as establishing the connections of psycho-social wellbeing and peacebuilding.
Very professional and dedicated!
I learned TTT from Gunilla and Ulf 4 years ago. It has been helping me since then with my nightmares and inner wounds. I have applyed and taught theat at work for collegues and clients, family and friends. Everyone who learned TTT appreciated the easiness and effectivness of the tool. Keep calm and pass it on!
Hello my name is CHERIF CHOUKOU I knew GuNILLA HAMNE and PEACEFUL HEART NETWORK (PHN) in April 2012 during a training for the victims of milked the dictatorship of the former President of Chad so since that day, I have volunteered to help needy people across the country.
- in 2012 I had to train a religious leader today that teaches more than 300 children ...
- even more so in 2017 I had to work with Sudanese refugees from Darfur based in eastern Chad.
or we had to train several girls and women and community leaders.
- 2018-2019 We moved to northern Chad on the road the route of trans-Saharan migration
(CHAD-Libya) or we help migrants with TT on average 68 per day for 18 months.
And the same we have provided considerable assistance to Nigerian & Nigerian refugees and displaced to Cause of BOKO HARAM.
Today we are a reference to Chad, at a press conference the doctors had solicit our support in the Hospitals and finally we have a woman also a program to help women detained in different prison.
Today, thanks to the work I have done, I have a clear conscience and the tree that I planted bears fruit.

I love the philosophy of Peaceful Heart Network. I love the dedication and committment of Ulf and Gunilla. I learnt TTT with them and have used it with so many clients and groups! And I love how they are generous in teaching and giving this gift to the world!
The Trauma Tapping Technique (TTT), they developed, did a great work in Ukraine by helping people out of their traumatizations and after we were teaching therapists, psychologists and crisis helping volunteers they immediately were able to help effectively and over and above spread this technique to many other colleagues in a very short time. Because of it's simplicity and effectiveness we could help and reach more than 3,000 people, directly and especially indirectly! Our summary: If you want or need to help traumatized people rapidly, especially with very low linguistic requirement and low budget, use TTT! Hans-Hermann Baertz, EFT-Institut Berlin, Germany
My heart is touched in a great way by TTT and my meeting with Gunilla Hamne.
I strongly feel that this method can be the change humanity needs to make it possible for all of us to live in peace and understanding.
So spread the word and the TTT, and you will make a big difference in healing - not only yourself - but even the future of our children and the whole planet.
/Susanne Kihl, Falkenberg, Sweden
Ulf and Gunilla have created a life-changing organization. Most striking is their generosity in providing resources and tools for everyone to use. I am new to TTT and am excited to introduce it into our nonprofit organization.
I “met” Gunilla when she presented via Skype at an EFT workshop near where I live. The thing that impressed me most at that time was her beautiful, loving spirit. So I signed up for and took the TTT online training with Gunilla & Ulf. I found the technique very useful with clients and staff at the clinic where I work, after the fires here in Northern CA. I love how simple it is to do, how effective it is, and how it can be shared so easily. I use it all the time for my own self-care as well. Thank you for all you do!
A teacher/mentor/friend turned me onto TTT and I have been using it, as well as, sharing it ever since. When she first told me about TTT, my thought was, “I have already done tapping- what is going to be different with this?” The difference for me was that it was easy, effortless and gentle; all while making significant shifts in my thoughts, feelings and overall energy. When I find something good, I always want to share it with everyone. So after using TTT personally and getting certified in the practice, I chose to teach it to my fellow faculty members I teach with at a Spiritual Development school. I also, chose to use TTT with the students that we teach at this school and with my clients that I coach in my private practice. I recently had the opportunity to teach TTT to caseworkers and mobile therapists in the foster care system and my intention is to continue to share and teach TTT to as many people and organizations as possible.
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Gunilla and Ulf at the ACEP conference in Orlando, FL and was immediately taken by the bright light that radiated out through the both of them. I was touched by their kind and generous spirits, as well as their excitement and enthusiasm in hearing how TTT was being used and shared in the world. They offered support, suggestions and resources- continuing to give- when I thought I had already received so much just by learning and using TTT. Gunilla and Ulf- the Peaceful Heart Network- are truly gifts to the world- Angels sent by God! Thank you for all that you are and for all that you do! I am eternally grateful and I think that I can speak on behalf of those I have taught and shared TTT with when I say “Thank you!”
I recently attended a workshop with Gunilla and Ulf , following this I have been using TTT with clients and people in need.
Gunilla and Ulf are doing incredible work and are truly amazing and people. I have been inspired to continue with more training in this area. Thank you so much
I truly cannot recommend Peaceful Heart Work highly enough. I learnt so much from my day training course with them, that I have been able to apply in my practice as an EFT practitioner, trainee dramatherapist and with my work in arts education. Finally, a simple way to deliver relief to people, no matter what. I had been trying alone to think of ways to do this myself, but Gunilla and Ulf have shown that community and sharing is the way and the light! I feel honoured to have gained from their hard work and wisdom - and to pass it on to others of course! Such an inspiration.
I'm exceedingly grateful to have been trained by Gunilla Hamne and Ulf Sandström of Peaceful Heart Network to use their Trauma Tapping Technique (TTT). I have used it extensively with both individual and group clients who suffer from trauma and its complex effects and aftermath. TTT has been life-altering for all of my clients who have learned it. I oftentimes send them to the Peaceful Heart Network web site to learn more about TTT and the organization. Gunilla and Ulf's work worldwide is amazing and inspires me to continue to pay forward the legacy they graciously gave me with TTT. May they and their Peaceful Heart Network continue their incredible work to ease suffering and prevent violence around the globe. Namaste!
I work with different kinds of stress and trauma and since connected to Peaceful Heart Network I have learned a lot of practical skills to handle problems in the nerve system. They teach easy to learn first aid interventions that you can both use on your self and your friends. What's best is that the methods is not only easy to learn, you can even teach it to your friends with no problem so that a wave of possible healing can spread quick mouth to mouth.
They are also eager to learn new stuff and keep expanding the knowledge and practice of better life for more people!
I met Gunilla in Bukavu, a town of DRC closed to Rwanda in 2009 when I really most needed. I was closed to a burn-out.
Since then I share it to everyone who may need it and want to learn how to do it.
Most powerful experiences I ever had were with children even very young, during pregnancie to help the mothers going throught their fears, women who had survive from agression, and people men and women who are going through hard time. And even for anxious artists before their shows or exams.
The work that Ulf and Gunilla is just fantastique and need to be spread out this selfhelp tool and make each one of us a helper for others.
I'm very happy to be part of it and I love to do the trainings to spread it.
The Peaceful Heart Network does incredible work which improves the lives of thousands of traumatized and conflict affected people. I was fortunate to meet Gunilla while working in the Democratic Republic of Congo and I saw first hand how the Trauma Tapping Technique provides much needed relief to people who are suffering. The Network trains other therapists and trauma affected people on TTT so they have a tool to use in difficult times. I can't think of a more genuine and honest organization that is working to heal people who need it most.
Worked with Gunilla in South Sudan, which is where I also discovered TTT from here. A simple and powerful and delivered by someone who cares deeply about people and healing.
TTT is an amazing tool to help deliver much needed ‘first aid for trauma’. I have delighted in using this tool and sharing it with others who work with immigrants and refugees. The results are superb, and it has is an easy method to use, share and teach. Many thanks to Gunilla and Ulf for creating it and making it highly accessible!
Gunilla and Ulf were introduced to me through a committee I joined after the Pulse Nightclub massacre in Orlando, Florida in 2015. They taught TTT to a group of therapists, who in turn have been sharing it with their clients and family members throughout the United States. Further, I have personally worked with both of them to bring TTT and other Emotional First Aid techniques to law enforcement and first responders in the Orlando and Osceola County (Florida) area. Their love and compassion for the people they are connecting with is amazing and contagious!
I wish that everyone will have the opportunity to a fantastic life free from trauma with help from Peaceful Heart Network, as myself. I'm happy now and I have got a better life.
I am so grateful that I meet Gunilla Hamne and Ulf Sandström of Peaceful Heart Network from Sweden. They are amazing selfless people that are changing the world. They taught TTT Energy Psychology at the 20th International Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology Conference in Orlando May 2018. Over 450 people around the world attended and learned how to heal people of Trauma. They were also a part of the first responder training in Orlando. I'm signed up for the June 4th TTT Training and can't wait.
I have known Ulf for over 30 years and I am absolutely in awe of his amazing work helping people with incredible energy and determination. Helps get to where it’s most needed. Worth encouraging in every way possible.
Tone Lyche
Gunilla and Ulf presented our keynote and ran a whole day workshop at The EFT Gathering conference 2018. Their sessions were packed with science-based information and practical learning all delivered in an up beat engaging, entertaining and enjoyable style. Our audience loved them and came away inspired, informed and motivated.
The work they do in war zones and refugee camps is both effective and efficient. We saw videos of people traumatised by unspeakable acts hugging and laughing with the joy of release. What is most important is that they are taking an accessible and simple energy psychology first aid routine to those who really need it. A straightforward tool that is independent of language and that can be used in the immediate aftermath of traumatic experience, or years later. I'd encourage anyone to read their book Resolving Yesterday and to watch the videos on their website. These people and what they do are for real.
I have known Ulf and Gunilla of the Peaceful Heart Network for many years now and been privy to their humanitarian work and the outcomes they are achieving. I have most recently been assisting them in evaluating the outcomes of their trauma training and have continued to be inspired, amazed and truly humbled by what they do and the impact they are having on the young people they are healing. I cannot stress enough the positive impact the TTT training has on the people they assist and teach, and have witnessed first hand the changes that are occurring in symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder, and happiness and engagement. It has been phenomenal to witness and I know the communities who are benefitting would say they same.
Peaceful Heart Network has found the most effective psychological tools for healing trauma, re-crafted them for communities with little financial means, and taken them to the front lines. They have done this with untiring dedication and commitment and have made a huge difference in the lives of many. I strongly endorse their work.

From the moment I met these exceptional healers, I was deeply impressed. Gunilla and Ulf generously travel to serve those in need of trauma relief, crossing borders as well as language barriers easily to minister to the human spirit. Using music, tapping and massive amounts of love without judgement, they are making the world a better place. I highly recommend their book as well as their superb work as humanitarians.
I have met with and worked with Ulf and Gunilla on ACEP's (the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology's) humanitarian committee, and taken their trainings, and watched them teach others, including cops, firepeople, jail people, and 911 switchboard operators, in addition to therapists and energy healers and lay people of all types. They are consistently present and responsive to the needs of others in the moment. They are models of using their vast experience and compassion to provide insight, practical suggestions and encouragement. They have served as powerful mentors for me and many others. ACEP awarded them its Humanitarian Award in 2017. ACEP has also financially supported them in their humanitarian missions, as have I.
I cannot say enough good words about these folks.
Gunilla and Ulf, in addition to their work with PHN, have unselfishly devoted many hours to other nonprofit orgs as well, such as Resources For Resilience and FREA: Finding Recovery and Empowerment from Abuse. Their expertise, positive energy and "can do" attitude have been invaluable. In particular, they devoted many hours to assisting us with our video projects. I can say without reservation that these projects would not be the successes they are, without their generous assistance.
They were honored with the "Outstanding Humanitarians Award" by the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology in 2017. They are on the front lines of healing trauma worldwide, ad they truly "walk their talk."
I am happy to recommend them and the Peaceful Heart Network to any folks and organizations seeking to understand and heal the global effects of abuse and trauma.

Since being introduced to TTT four years ago I have shared it with my clients, students, veterans and plan to take it to the local schools this year. Gunilla and Ulf are genuine in their care and concern for the traumatized people of the world. Their presentations and training are thorough and enjoyable. They touch the hearts of all they meet. They should receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
