EFT Tapping Just Won't Work
And What to Do to Help it Work
Wanna know the absolute worst thing about Emotional Freedom Tapping?
It's a total bust…
…if you don't do it.
In fact, if you don't do EFT tapping, it's a complete failure.
And why you don't do it?
I bet you've got some great reasons. These are ten reasons I hear a lot, explaining why people don't do tapping therapy.
1. You can't figure out what to say.
2. You really not sure you're doing the procedure correctly.
3. You have to have a quiet, private place to do it - and that's hard to get.
4. It takes too much effort.
5. You're not a professional, so why bother.
6. It would take way too much tapping to clear all your stuff.
7. It's too hard.
8. There are too many complicated steps.
9. You think you need a professional, but that's too expensive.
10. You don't think you have the time.
Did I name any of your excuses for not doing Emotional Tapping? Whether I did or not, I’ll tell you something.
You will feel better if you do more tapping!
Tapping energizes your body, improves your emotional state and helps you think more clearly and resourcefully.
So, if you're not tapping much these days, I've got a way to get you going.
Just tap.
That's it. Just tap on the meridian points. Words aren't needed. It may be a simple tapping technqiue, but you'll be surprised by its power!
What Happens When You Tap?
Tapping on the meridians helps to resolve stuck energy patterns. So if you're feeling a strong troubling emotion, tapping the points helps to get the energy moving and to clear the upset.
How Do You Do It?
Let's say you notice you are upset. You may be feeling any sort of upseting emotion. You may be feeling sad, irritated, frustrated, overwhelmed, anxious, angry, ashamed, resentful, guilty, scared or embarrassed.
Just start to tap.
Tap at the eyebrow point, then the side of the eye, then under the eye, under the nose, chin, collarbone, under the arm, then the top of the head. Tap as many times as you want at each point. Counting isn't necessary.
Then tap again, starting at the eyebrow point and ending at the top of the head.
After a couple of rounds stop tapping and notice what you’re thinking and feeling. If you're still upset, tap some more.
While you're tapping, just let your thoughts occur naturally. You don't have to say them aloud or change them in any way.
You don't even have to pay particular attention to your thoughts and feelings while tapping.
What You Can Expect?
The tapping will automatically help to balance out your state and bring you more understanding and clarity. While it may not take you to perfect bliss, it still works very well.
And even though this form of wordless tapping may not be as effective as a thorough targeted session with a set-up and lots of words…
…it is far superior to no tapping at all!
The next time you feel upset - just tap. Nothing complicated. There's no need to carve out a lot of time for tapping.
Tap on the meridian points. That's the basic tapping technique.
