		<description><![CDATA[In the past week I discovered that I have high blood pressure. I am fit, a vegetarian, and in my forties. Because of a medical condition from my thirties the high blood pressure is a serious issue. I am under the care of a medical doctor in regards to this, but am wondering the best way to use tapping to assist the healing process. Also, should I go overboard and tap every hour, or is there such a thing as too much tapping?

		<description><![CDATA[In this episode we discuss how tapping affects the brain and the biochemistry of the body. It is one thing to know that it is possible for us to tap and find relief, but it something complete different to understand what is going on inside the body. When we understand what is going on in the brain and in the biochemistry of the body (and how this effects the way new cells are produced) it allows us to do two things. First, it can help us to tailor our tapping in such a fashion that we can get the most out of the tapping session because we can do it in a more effective way. Second, it helps us to understand the way the body changes so we can more clearly track our progress and maintain realistic expectations of how the healing process is going to unfold.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I do tapping/EFT I normally tap for thirty minutes (or more).  Many times I have noticed that with in the next 24 hours gets very sore, from the top of my head to my tailbone. This is muscle pain and it feels something like lactic acid when you work your muscles too hard and they become inflamed. Do you have any idea what is causing this and how it can be avoided in future?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the lifetime of this web site I have been keeping a very close tab on the most frequently asked questions and the most popular articles.  Here are nine common topics, most of which are based on conversations with clients and e-mails from readers, dealing with why tapping works, what a person can expect during the healing process, and how to improve one's tapping practice.   <a href="http://tappingqanda.com/contact">Please keep the questions coming</a>.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are times when I want to spend a little time tapping, but I don't have a specific issue or I don't really want to dive into a very emotional issue.  Is there any benefit to just tapping with no particular intention? [Note: The example in this article on how to tap without words is a prefect way to tap to help you get a good night sleep or to just relax.]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was on the teleclass you did with Catherine Poole on color and I loved it. But there is still something I am confused about. She talked about how each type of physical issue is related to a color (or a couple of colors). It sounds like if we are suffering in that part of our body we could tap using EFT and just image that color coming in. My questions is how do I know which color to bring in?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I remember reading a suggestion about “asking” a troubled body part what it’s trying to tell you. What exactly does that mean? And how does the answer get conveyed? Would it be a thought or words popping into your head? If so, would it be immediately or would it require additional tapping?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After an accident I have had physical therapy and I’m doing better.  As part of my therapy I am supposed to do sit-ups/leg raises, but the strain on my lower back is too much and the next day I can barely stand up or bend over. I know as I do more therapy it will get better, but I was wondering if I could use EFT to do the sit-ups/leg raises to build my muscles?]]></description>
