		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/flower4.jpg" class="frame_right">There are lots of ways to tap for our physical health.  Personally, I have a tapping script that is almost 2000 words long that I tap through morning and evening during the cold and flu season (especially when I am traveling and/or spending lots of time with germy students).

But it doesn't have to be that complicated.  Here are three simple things you can do which will make a huge difference in keeping you healthy.

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/regret.jpg" class="frame_right">Bronnie Ware is an Australian nurse who spent several years working in palliative care, caring for patients in the last 12 weeks of their lives. She recorded their dying epiphanies in a blog called <a href=http://www.inspirationandchai.com/>Inspiration and Chai</a>, which gathered so much attention that she put her observations into a book called "The Top Five Regrets of the Dying".

With any thought, none of these seem very surprising. They even sound a little clichéd, but clichés are clichés for a reason.

Here are the five most reported regrets at death according to Bronnie.  I have added tapping scripts for each.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/donaldtrump.jpg" class="frame_right">There is no question that Donald Trump's public persona is one in which he thinks a great deal of about himself.  I don't think it is a bad thing.  

Sometimes I wonder if he is over-compensating for something else by talking such a big game about himself and his success.  More than likely that is just my own insecurities being projected ontohis braggadociosness. 

When it comes to seeking out teachers and role models for healing, growth, and self love Donald Trump probably isn't in the first six hundred thousand names that would come to mind. Regardless what you think of "The Donald" he reminds us of some great lessons that we can learn about loving ourselves.  Here are few of my favorites.]]></description>

She has a podcast called <a href=http://www.rikilindhome.com/category/podcasts/>Making It</a> in which she interviews actors, directors, stand-up comedians, and casting directors about how their careers have unfolded and what lessons they have learned along the way.  

In addition to being a great interviewer Riki share stories from her own journey.  There is a choice she made very early on in her career in how she dealt with the comments from the people in her life that I find very inspired.  Not only was it helpful for her as an actor, it is helpful for all of us in our healing process.   ]]></description>

It is very easy to see Dr. Phil as a clown and a caricature of himself, but I think we dismiss him at our own peril.  I have always been very impressed with what he has to say and even more impressed with his ability to cut to the chase.

We can make things too complicated (or at least I do).  Here are 5 things that Dr. Phil can teach us about tapping and caring for ourselves.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/teens.jpg" class="frame_right">Tapping with kids can be a very rewarding experience. In many cases kids take to tapping much faster than adults because they are more willing to try new things and aren’t hung up on why something is working. They just want to feel better. 

Here are five things to keep in mind when teaching kids to tap. (Note: All five lessons below are hard won. I know them to be true because I have done the opposite of all 5 at one point.)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/child.jpg"  class="frame_right">We are not just who we are now, but a sum total of all that has happened.  There are parts of us that are still clinging to the past as if it is still happening.  Many times when working with clients we find our way to working with the younger-self.  Much of who we are today is informed by our younger years.  BUT it is not who we are in totality and our past in not written in stone in such a way that it can never be changed.  

I have found it very helpful to speak the my younger self.  It is important to let it know that it is allowed to grow, change, and absorb the wisdom of my older self.  This is how I tap for and with my inner child.]]></description>

It might seem scary, overwhelming, we might know where to begin, or there is just some unknown force that is holding us back from doing the work we know we want today.

Here is a very simple tool to get after those issues with out having to diving in too deeply]]></description>

It requires us to level with ourselves about what is working and many times even scarier why things are the way they are.

Here is a simple three step process that will clear the way to healing and change, BUT be very careful.  These are dangerous and scary questions.  Only read this if you are willing to understand why are are stuck.]]></description>

Here are some of my favorites.  Even if you have read all these before I would encourage you to go back and re-read at leaste on of them.  As the Pueblo people say, "When someone is telling a story that we have heard before we don't stop them.  The store is the same, but we as listeners are different."

There are new lessons in things we have heard before.  ]]></description>

This can be good when we it encourages us to think about what we want and how it will improve our lives.  This can be destructive when we start beating ourselves up over what our life looks like because we have "created" it.  In my mind it isn't this black and white.

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/gift.jpg" alt="" width="" class="frame_right">One of the phrases I hear frequently from clients is <em>"I don't deserve..."</em>  When we believe we don't deserve something then we are going to prevent ourselves from getting it.  It doesn't matter if it is a better job, a loving relationship, or better health.  If we don't feel we deserve it then we aren't going to move forward.  In this reflection we look at how changing the way we understand the word "deserve" can change the way we heal. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/sorry.jpg" alt="" width="" class="frame_left">It is very important to spend time doing self-forgiveness work.  If we do not forgive ourselves then we are never going to move forward because we are going to be an emotional prisoner to the past.  When we refuse to forgive ourselves then it is like we are reliving the past moment over and over again.

There are many steps to this process, but one of the concepts I always talk to clients about is the difference between feeling guilty and regretting what happened.]]></description>

The tool "About, To, and As If" is a great way to deal with emotions around any relationship.  The tool can be used for close friends and family or with people you have never met before.  It can be used for people you have a contentious relationship with and it can be used with people who you want a better life for.

Using the phrase "I love and accept myself..." it one of the bigest challenges my clients face.  For some reason it just feels icky to say "I love and accept myself".   Even though it doesn't feel good, it is good for you. Besides clearing psychological reversal it provides an opportunity to create some gentle reframing moments.  ]]></description>

The critical voice is nothing more then that little nagging voice that is always pointing out everything we have done wrong, everything we are going to do wrong, and everything we are never going to be.

Sometimes this voice is nothing more than a simple annoyance, while other times it can be so crippling that it prevents us from getting out to bed in the morning. 

Here is an easy 8 step process to transform the critical voice into a very powerful tool for change and transformation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://tappingqanda.com/image/post/lettinggo.jpg" alt="" width="" class="frame_left">I was working with a client named “Jane”.  Jane really knows Emotional Freedom Techniques(EFT)/Tapping.  I said to her, “I have a radical suggestion for you.  And you don’t need to do it.  But it is a thought.  I think you need to surrogately tap for both of them!”

Her response was a loooong pause, followed by, “OK, I’m listening.  Why would I do that?”

		<description><![CDATA[I know we are months past the beginning of the year. More than likely you have forgotten all your New Year's Resolutions.

The fact that January 1st is the beginning of the "New Year" is somewhat arbitrary.    Really the first day of the year could have been any day, but for some reason when calendars where being created they chose January 1st.   If we use the "New Year" as a tool to reflect on our life and as a chance to look ahead then it can be a very helpful thing.

So now that we are well past the craziness of the holidays and you have some time to reflect on what you thought was going to be important this year, let's try this again.

Let's make today the Re-New Year to reflect and plan action.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I was working with "Kelly."  We had been working every week or two for 30 minutes at a time on the issue of anxiety she was feeling at work.  When we started working she described the anxiety as being present from the moment she walked in the door until she left.  There were moments that she just wanted to run from the room screaming.

In the last eight weeks we have had six 30-minute sessions.  We have not completely taken care of the issue, but a lot of progress has been achieved. Here are the steps that we have taken and the lessons that can be learned from our process.

In addition to setting up the body's energy system to continue the healing process throughout the day, it also is very helpful to restate all that we learned and achieved during this tapping session. ]]></description>

There are time when I am working with clients in which I can almost hear them hitting play as they start to tell me the pre-recorded message that is their.  The issue has moved from just being an issue to the clients identity.  Chip explains a nice little three step process to get out of our own story to start the healing.]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Toa Te Ching is an ancient Chinese text that is a collection of 81 short passages.  As wikipedia rightly states, "The passages are ambiguous, and topics range from political advice for rulers to practical wisdom for people." 

Some passages are insightful, others are profound, and still others will leave you just scratching your head in bafflement.

The topic of the Toa Te Ching came up during a client session recently.  The types of issues we were tapping(EFT) on reminded me of many passages.  After the session I dug out my dog-eared and tattered copy.  I was amazed at how much peace it brought to tap along to the passages.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mechanically tapping/Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a very easy thing to do.  All you need is to provide stimulus to the tapping points plus tuning into the issue at hand.  The tapping part is easy; what can be hard is the tuning in part.  Often we are so close to an issue or we have been working on an issue that it is difficult to see it clearly.

In the first three parts of this series we build upon ideas from two articles found on Jeremy Dean's <a href=http://spring.org.uk>PSYBlog</a>.  In this fourth part we will look at a number of other ways we can get past block and the feeling of tapping staleness.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the common mistakes we make when assessing a situation is making a generalizations.  We say things like, "Everyone at work hates me!" or "Nothing I do is good enough for my boss!"  It is obvious with a few moments of reflection that these statements aren't true.  Sure, there might be one or two people at work we don't get along with, but it is not "everyone".  

The problem with these types of generalizations is they move us to a place were we are responding to them as if they were true. (The words we say out loud have that much power.)

If I walk into my workplace believing that everyone hates me I am going to act in a particular way.  If I walk into my workplace believing that I don't get along with Bill and Mary. I am going to act in a different way.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Often times when we are approaching transformation we look to adding new skills and resources (to do new things) or to heal past wound (that have us trapped in the past).  These are great paths to pursue with our work, but they are not the only paths.

Many times we are carrying emotions, memories, or beliefs from the past that are no longer useful in the present.  We also choose to carry burdens and problems for our loved ones.  Letting go of these no longer useful burdens can quickly open us for healing of the issues we face in this moment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes we make progress with our tapping that is so sublet that we don't even notice it.   Other times we make such a radical change that it is impossible to believe we had the problem before.   We don't have to recognize the progress we are making.  The simple fact that we are progressing and growing is reward enough for doing our tapping work, but there are some befits to recognizing our progress.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Giving stuff a way for free can be a tricky thing to do as a practitioner.  On one hand it feels like a good idea because we are exposing potential clients to our products and services.  On the other hand we can worry that if we give too much away  potential clients are only going to take the free things and never buy.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the biggest obstacles we face when we sit down to tap is to know what to tap on.   We might have a sense of what we would like to change or how we would like to grow, but the change can feel so large that we don't what steps to take first.  In this article AnaMaria Herrera explains that some times the best first step is to decided to make a change, which then leads to a clearer path and the next step.

Often we are often carry the baggage of failed past attempts at weight release, a family history of carrying too much weight, and the fact that we have held the weight for so long it seem that is stuck and can't possibly be released.  In this article we look at the different reasons we fear failure (not just for weight release) and how we can use tapping to move past these fears.]]></description>

I learned to find the 'right' thing to say by reading lots of scripts and patter written by other practitioners. I found phrases, ideas, and formulas that will make it easier for you to come up with your own.  Here is a great example of a simple 4 step formula to come up with phrases using your own words.]]></description>

The music from our past brings back particular moments and emotions and can be used to help find our way right to the core of many current issues and limiting beliefs.  This can be a very powerful tool when we can't access any memories of a past experience; we can use the music to transport us right back into that time.]]></description>
