Participants will learn how to use revolutionary new Energy Techniques for emotional self-healing, including Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and Simple Energy Techniques (SET), and will also be given an experiential introduction to the presenters’ unique integrative approach, Provocative Energy Techniques (PET). The workshop will demonstrate how PET can be used to leverage and accelerate self-healing, and also to help others to overcome emotional issues and problems, such as:
• Past Traumas and Hurt
• Fears, Phobias, Panic Attacks and General Anxiety
• Guilt, Grief, Sadness and Shame
Explanation of Energy Techniques used and taught in this Workshop:
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and Simple Energy Techniques (SET) are revolutionary emotional healing techniques from the new field of Energy Psychology. These simple processes involve gentle stimulation of the acupressure meridian points, usually via tapping. This process frequently results in effective and lasting relief for emotional issues and some physical problems, such as pain. SET is a user-friendly approach developed by the presenters, which can be easily learnt and integrated into your daily life.
Provocative Energy Techniques (PET) combines the power of meridian energy tapping (as used in EFT and SET) with the warm humorous provocative communication style and techniques of Provocative Therapy to leverage and accelerate results. PET’s powerful techniques allow you to engage issues at a deep level and promote multi-level changes simultaneously. The provocative techniques get very quickly to the heart of the matter, and the meridian tapping and use of humour offer the means for rapid and effective desensitization of emotional problems. Used with a warm and open heart, PET thus provides the means for effective relief of emotional problems. More information on PET
This workshop will provide an experiential introduction to PET and demonstrate how the approach can be used to provide effective relief for emotional problems.
Important Note: Participants must have a working sense of humour and be unconcerned with non-politically correct language as PET plays with stereotypes and challenges rigid thinking patterns to promote thinking and feeling in new ways. Come prepared to have your paradigms tilted and your assumptions about change shattered!
This workshop provides credit towards certification as a PET Practitioner. Participants interested in certification should also enroll in the PET training workshop that follows.

"I would like to express my impressions on your workshop, like this: PET -makes impossible things possible. I am a doctor, a physician. I’m trained to be sceptical about everything that is not scientifically evidence based. There is a reason why I came to this seminar though. The scientifically proven stuff is not enough, to help people. So I’m looking over the fence. The first day of the seminar I almost succeeded in holding on to my beliefs ... When first listening to a PET-session, my own cognitive limitations came up like a couple of policemen not wanting to cooperate at all. To be the PET-patient was another thing. The provocative style was like having a sauna bath, relieving, refreshing, just great, clear thoughts, limiting beliefs gone.
Other participants at the seminar, all more or less sceptical, did sessions with David Lake and Steve Wells, and had that noticeable cognitive shift, the point where the problem is no longer a problem. Relationship treatment- a brave couple came up with their problems - was magic. The PET method turned their problems into something more like a sincerely happy marriage. So when the sun rose the second day of the seminar, I was convinced, by the results of the PET method, and not only by the great performers, David and Steve.”
--- Eva Maria Lundell MD, Munich

Training Workshop in Provocative Energy Techniques (PET): Skillfully Recreate the Future with Paradox, Humour, Provocation - and Energy Tapping!
Monday 14 April and Tuesday 15 April 2008
This workshop is for those who would like to learn to use this revolutionary approach to help themselves and others to recover from past traumas, build self-esteem, gain self-acceptance, and create new futures.
NOTE: Participants should also attend the weekend Introductory PET Workshop or have prior introductory training in PET.
What is PET?
PET is a revolutionary mind-body approach which promotes deep-level changes simultaneously, through a unique combination of energy meridian tapping (as used in EFT) with humour, and provocative communication techniques drawn from Provocative Therapy.
Provoke means literally “to call out”. PET provides a host of techniques for calling out client’s strengths, self-affirming states, and self-healing energies, whilst providing the means for effective desensitization of negative emotions.
How does it work?
PET’s powerful provocative techniques bypass the usual resistance to get to the heart of problems and promote energy and power for change. The meridian tapping and warm, empathic humour provides the means for rapid relief from negative emotions. Together with the warm, open heart of the practitioner, PET is a powerful combination for rapid results.
"Although I have been using EFT successfully with clients for several years, the fine-tuning and addition of the PET techniques have profoundly expanded my effectiveness ... I am amazed at how much more quickly and comfortably clients have been moving through their issues, pain and trauma. I have received several phone calls after the sessions in which I have used these techniques thanking me for, as one client said, 'bringing me the first feeling of peace I have had in months'."
--- Lynda Malerstein, C. Ht, Power Journeys Hypnosis
Who Should Attend?
The workshop will benefit anyone who wants to learn new energy techniques and add humour to their life but will be of particular interest to coaches, counsellors, consultants, and professional therapists who want to leverage the results they currently achieve with clients.
Benefits of PET for the client:
• Gets to the heart of issues very quickly.
• Provides rapid relief for emotional pain.
• Leads towards self-acceptance, and ultimately towards integration and wholeness.
• Unlike traditional approaches, PET doesn't accept that change is inevitably painful, so change tends to be enhancing, enjoyable, and even fun.
Benefits of PET for the practitioner:
• Rapport with the client is deepened; learn a radical form of empathy.
• Learn to bypass resistance.
• Motivation for change is drawn from within the client. PET thus provides an effective antidote for burnout.
• Leverage the results you can achieve in a session by getting to the big issues quickly and releasing the emotional pain.
Workshop Format and Content:
This 2-day PET workshop will teach you the important theoretical and practical background necessary to understand and use PET. It includes demonstrations, practical and experiential exercises, an outline of the key techniques, as well as the principles and philosophy underlying the PET approach. You will learn some of the core patterns and processes of PET, and will have an opportunity to experience the approach and practice some of the techniques in a supportive environment. Participants must have a working sense of humour and be unconcerned with non-politically correct language as PET plays with stereotypes and rigid thinking patterns to get you thinking and feeling in new ways. Be prepared to have your paradigms tilted and your assumptions about change shattered!
Note 1: This workshop counts towards PET Certification for those who wish to become PET Practitioners. Details of the PET Certification program can be found by clicking on this link: PET Certification Program
Note 2: Participants in the PET Workshop should also attend the weekend PET Introductory workshop, where PET will be introduced and demonstrated.

What Others Say About PET and Training by Dr. David Lake and Steve Wells:
"Steve and Dave possess a truly remarkable set of therapy skills. Their live demonstrations model the excellence of their work in a richly communicative way. Their blend of provocative therapy & EFT is fascinating."
--- Steve B. Reed, Psychotherapist, Dallas, Texas
"A terrific experience! One of those workshops and experiences that stretch you. I grew as a person, therapist and learnt so much. Usually, you may be happy to come away from a workshop picking up 1 or 2 new distinctions. I was coming home every night tired but happy to know that I was taken out of my comfort zone to learn new ways of being.”
--- Rocky Biasi, Counsellor and Hypnotherapist
"The total immersion in the process and the exercises that we did gave me a real “feel" for PET and the knowledge of what to do. My practice has not been the same since. I have dealt with difficult cases which I would have gotten stuck with before attending the workshop - and it was easy. You just go with the client (and a few other things). How simple, how rare!
...I like the realness of the approach, no sidestepping the pain and the problems. Rather, letting the hard be hard and the terrible be terrible...and still, you can live through it. It can even be funny and ironic. PET, as taught by Steve and David, lets you be OK just being human."
--- Binyamin Dov Zuriel, Jerusalem Israel
