Pod #693: How to tap when you feel like crap

March 19, 2026 by Gene Monterastelli

One of the conundrums of tapping is the fact that you tap because you want to feel better, but you aren't as good at tapping when you feel bad because you are in a lower resource state.

To put it another way, when you need tapping the most, you are the least effective version of yourself as a tapper.

But just because you aren't at the peak of your tapping abilities does not mean you are destined to fail when you sit down to tap.

This week in the podcast, I share a simple game plan where I teach you:

  • what you can do ahead of time to tap effectively when you feel bad
  • the first thing you should tap on when you don't feel great
  • the second thing you should tap on right after that
  • how to continue your tapping session to get the most out of it

Having a plan for those times when you’re not at your best is key for getting help when you most need it. And the best time to learn this is right now!
