Pod #264: Compare And Contrast TAT And EFT w/ Tapas Fleming

By 2 Comments

In 1993 Tapas Fleming developed an acupressure technique that was later named TAT (Tapas Acupressure Technique). In many ways it is a sister protocol to EFT.

In this conversation with Tapas we talk about how TAT was discovered, how to do it, and its similarities and differences to the tapping most of us are used to doing.

Pod #262: EFT For Encouragement

By 3 Comments

My clients constantly tell me, “I know I should be tapping, but I don’t want to spend time stuck in yukky negative emotions.”

I can sympathize. Connecting with and feeling our negative emotions isn’t much fun. Even though tapping is a powerful tool to shift them, it makes sense that we avoid what is uncomfortable.

This week I have a tap-along audio filled with positive affirmations. I recommend tapping along at the beginning of your day, before tackling a difficult task, or any time you just need a pick-me-up.

Pod #261: EFT for Fibromyalgia w/ Dr. Norman Shealy

By 3 Comments

Over the years I have been asked a number of times about how to tap for fibromyalgia. Unfortunately I have not been of much help as I have no experience working with this complex condition and all of the practitioners I have reached out to have reported achieving inconsistent results at best.

For this reason I have been searching for the right guest to interview for the topic and I’m happy to say that I have found Dr. Norman Shealy MD. Dr. Shealy has been working successfully with fibromyalgia patients for over 30 years.

As you will hear in this interview, there is a reason why tapping for fibromyalgia is so hard to tackle AND what you can to to be successful in finding relief.
