Cheyenne River Lakota Sioux Tribe Reservation in South Dakota

The Tapping Solution Foundation visited the Cheyenne River Lakota Sioux Tribe Reservation in South Dakota

The Tapping Solution Foundation joined the Hawkwing organization in this endeavor, which is a group of people committed to making a difference with a very neglected and impoverished population. The Cheyenne River Lakota Reservation is the poorest county in the United States with limited healthcare, a life expectancy of only age 48, 85% unemployment and an average annual income per person of only $2,926, according to the Hawkwing Foundation.

Dr. Maria Ortner provided EFT Tapping resources to the Reservation as part of a medical mission to support the Takini School (Grades K to 12th)  Dr. Ortner and the others from the medical mission worked with students, parents, teachers, and community members during a week-long stay. The level of trauma in this community was high, including different layers of trauma such as historic, generational, family, and personal.

Ms. Judith Higgins is a first-grade teacher who taps herself but now she was very excited to have the tools to introduce tapping to her students.
