Pod #716: How to tap when you don’t know where to start

June 19, 2026 by Gene Monterastelli

One of the great things about tapping is that it can be used for a wide range of physical, emotional, and even spiritual issues.

But that breadth brings with it the struggle of knowing where to start when there are so many things that you could tap on.

Recently, I received this email from one of my readers: 

I've been tapping on and off for years. Recently, when tapping, I am quickly lost in a quagmire of thoughts and emotions and can't see a direction to go in. I have been wallowing in something vague and exhausting for the past month, and am wondering if there is anything I can do.

This struggle is common because we aren't just feeling one thing at any given moment. We are thinking and feeling countless things about what is happening in our lives right now, struggles from our past, and worries about the future.

Without a clear entry point, our tapping feels unfocused. We worry that we're just wasting our time, which in turn makes us less likely to tap.

This week in the podcast, I share what I do when I am feeling so many things I don't know where to start. It is a simple approach that every tapper should know.
