This post is a little different than the usual one you get from me. I am going to do three things. I am going to celebrate, I am going to share a useful challenge with you, and I am going to ask you for help.

#1 Celebration!
Sunday March 3rd marked the 10-year anniversary of the Tapping Q and A Podcast!!!!

When I started the podcast all I had was a $19 microphone and a doohickey that I bought from RadioShack (remember them?), which allowed me to connect my landline (remember them?!) to my computer so that I could record telephone interviews.

I had no idea what I was doing, but I thought it would be fun.

I certainly didn’t think I would still be doing it 10 years later!

In that time, between interviews, instruction, tap-alongs, and bonus episodes, I have recorded over 400 hundred episodes.

That is more than 168 hours of free content! (As in, it would take you seven straight days without sleeping to listen to all of the podcasts.)

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For your willingness to listen, to tap along, and to share with other people.

The podcast has been downloaded by people in over 160 countries and more than 1.75 million episodes have been downloaded. (The number is actually closer to 2 million, but because stats weren’t tracked in the early years of the show I don’t know the exact number for sure.)

#2 Go Learn Something
Even if you have been with me from the very beginning and even if you have listened to every minute of the podcast, there is still so much we can learn from those past interviews.

Think of it like an old book you love or your favorite movie. Even though you have read or watched it before, there’s something new for you each time you go back.

The podcasts are no different. There will be something useful when you hear it again – and it might even feel like you are hearing again for the first time.

My challenge to you is to pick seven podcasts from the archive and listen to one each day for the next week. It’s a simple commitment to yourself that will pay huge dividends. (I would also love to hear which seven you chose.)

The whole archive is waiting for you, free of charge, at http://TappingPodcast.com

#3 Help me out!
The podcast is a labor of love.

They don’t just magically appear on the website or in your podcast app of choice. There is scripting, reaching out to guests, recording interviews, editing interviews, writing show notes, writing these emails, making the graphics for social media, and creating the final version of the show.

On average I spend about four hours on every episode of the podcast. Assuming a 40-hour work week, that means I have spent over 10 months working solely on the podcast. (And that doesn’t take into account all the time I have spent learning how to do the podcast and my continuing education to make them better.)

I love doing it. I love the fact you listen. AND I need your help.

There are two ways in which you can support the podcast.

First, tell a friend about the podcast. Well actually, I want to you tell three friends. The marketing budget for the podcast is word of mouth and the most common way new people find their way to it is via a recommendation from a friend.

Think of three people you think would benefit from the podcast. Send them an email, show them how to listen to a podcast, or you might even help them by showing them how to subscribe on their phone the next time you see them.

When people join my email list, I ask them how they found me. My favorite response is always “A friend told me about your podcast.” Those emails warm my heart.

Please help to warm my heart some more and tell a friend about the podcast!

My goal in the next year is to double the number of listeners to the podcast. This isn’t for the pure vanity of doubling my downloads. I believe in my heart of hearts the more people who tap regularly, the healthier the world will be for all of us. This is a small way in which you can help that to happen.

Second, support the podcast. In addition to my time, there are actual costs for producing the podcast. I pay for the hostings, software to edit and make it sound good, and my editor who makes sure all the emails and show notes look good.

There are two ways you can give your support:

• You can become a monthly supporter of the podcast. For as little as $5 a month you get access to a bunch of bonus content, including extra podcasts every month only for supports. You can join here: http://tappingqanda.com/support
• You can make a one-time contribution of any amount https://tappingqanda.com/tip/

The podcast is set up on an interesting business model. Everyone gets free access and then if you think it is valuable, you can give your financial support. It is a risk on my part, putting in the work without any support up front.

Not everyone is in the possion to support the podcast financially, but if you are, I would encourage you to do so. Not because you get bonus content (which is nice), but because it is something you value.

By investing in the podcast you are letting me know you value it AND you are making a statement to yourself that you value your personal growth through the podcast.

There are a number of ways I am hoping to grow the podcast in the future (including transcriptions of all the interviews, including the archives), but I won’t be able to do that without your support.

Thank you!
Once again, thank you for continuing to support the podcast. I hope you keep listening, learning, and tapping along.

Here is to another 10 years!

Eleven years ago this week Tapping Q & A was born! (I wrote the first article July 29th, 2007 and shared it with the world August 1st.)

It is hard to believe that something that started as a hobby in my free time has turned into a website that has had millions of page views and a podcast that’s been downloaded over a million times by people in over 160 countries!

It means sooooooo much to me that you take the time to read, listen, comment, give feedback, and share the Tapping Q & A resources with your loved ones.

As a thank you, I am offering these two special special deals:

1) One-on-one sessions with me: Normally I charge $225 per 1-hour session, but this week you can get then for $110. (Maximum of 5 sessions per person, must be used by December 31st, 2018.)

Get time with me: Sessions w/ Gene

2) 10 Questions System: This is my favorite tool for figuring out the steps and the emotional blocks that are standing in the way of you taking action. Normally it costs $197. This week you can save $110 and only pay $87.

Get out of your own way: 10 Question System

Thanks again for your part in the amazing experience this has been for me. I had no idea how this would turn out when I started and it’s so far beyond my wildest dreams that I can't even process it!

As always, please let me know how I can be helpful to you in your tapping journey.

Blessings,

Gene

Good morning,

In case you haven’t already heard the good news, Google has just made it a whole lot easier to listen to podcasts on your Android phone!

Up until last week you had to install an extra app to access podcasts, which wasn't the most convenient.

Now it is a super simple two-step process:

1. Click the correct link.
2. Click subscribe.

If you happen to be on your Android smartphone you can subscribe to the podcast right here. Just click subscribe and you are set!

If you aren't reading this on your phone right now, the next time you are all you need to do is go to this link: https://tappingqanda.com/abdriod-subscribe

OR download the app!
Did you know that there is a free Tapping Q and A app for both Apple and Android devices? Not only does it provide access to the entire podcast archive, it also includes loads of tapping scripts.

Access the free app here: Android | Apple

Please let me know if you have any technical issues with this,

Gene

At the end of month I will be in the UK on vacation and I would love to see you!

The last two times I have been in London I arranged informal meetups. We talked about tapping, the healing process, and life in general. I had a great time getting to know my readers and those who showed up made new tapping friends.

On Monday July 31st I am going to be at Mulberry Bush (89 Upper Ground, Southbank, SE1 9PP, very close to the National Theatre ) from 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm.

If you are in the city please do come along to hang out and have drink. You can stop by anytime and can stay for as long or short as you would like.

Send me a note if you are thinking of coming so I can send you updated information if anything changes.

I am also going to be in north Wales July 28th, 29th, and 30th. I’m not currently planning a meetup there but if you are in that part of the world, reply to this email and we might arrange a little gathering.

Let me know if you have any questions and I hope to see you soon!

Gene

I am always trying to improve the quality of the podcast and I would love your input to help me do that. Simply fill out the short 3-question survey below. Feel free to add as many answers as you would like for each question.

To thank you I would like you to have a copy of the 4-part audio series NLP for EFT. If you would like to receive this gift, add your email address at the bottom of the form.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Good morning,

I was having dinner with a friend last week and we were talking about the wonders of technology. Right now, I have a smart phone in my pocket, which is more than 1000 times more powerful than the computer I used when I was a professional computer programmer less than 20 years ago.

With this amazing computing power always at our fingertips, we are able to track our lives in very powerful ways.

Personally, I am able to see how much daily exercise I get via my health tracker. Professionally, I am able see which podcasts you download and the articles you read the most so that I can keep producing the content that you need.

Last year about this time, Foursquare published some interesting data. For those who don't know, Foursquare is an app that allows users to check in at different places, so you can let your friends know what you are up to.

With users all over the world, Foursquare are able to see trends in people's behavior by looking at all of their data.

The information they shared was about three particular dates.

1. There is a decrease in the number of visits to fast food restaurants on the first Sunday of the new year. (In 2016 it was January 3rd)
2. Depending on when New Year's Day falls, there is an increase in the number of visits to the gym on the first or second Monday of the new year. (In 2016 it was January 11th)
3. The second Friday of February has the highest number of fast food visits of any day in the first three months of the year. (In 2016 it was February 12th)

Being clever, Foursquare declared the second Friday of February to be the Fatty Solstice.

There is a reason this happens!
When I read this story I wasn't surprised. There have been a number of studies on New Year's resolutions and how they simply don't work.

A New Year's resolution is nothing more than an exercise in willpower that happens at a particular time of year.

If you could make changes in your life using willpower alone, you wouldn't need a New Year's resolution.

Early April Shame
The truth is that you didn't need a data study to tell you that New Year's resolutions don't work. You already know this because you have tried and failed at resolutions in the past.

Even though data analysis can predict when resolutions will fail, we don't notice it in our own lives.

There might be a nagging feeling in the back of your head. Or from time to time you might remember that you want to be making better choices.

The next thing you know it is April. You remember your resolution and you remember you haven't given it a second thought in almost two months.

You are disappointed that your life isn't better.

You are frustrated at your lack of action.

You are ashamed because you promised yourself you would do better and you failed…again!

For me, the worst emotion is shame at having failed. I hate it!

This sense of shame is SOOOOOOO BIG that many people stop trying to improve their lives because they hate the feeling of trying and failing so much.

Make this year different!
It doesn't have to be this way. Change is possible and it doesn't have to be a fruitless exercise in willpower.

To start off 2017 I have created a program that will help you to be successful in the short term AND will teach you how to make change happen in a simple, step-by-step way in the long term.

This process includes five steps.

Step 1: I am going to teach you the 5 tapping techniques I use most, both with my clients and when I am tapping for my own issues, AND the best time to use each of these techniques. Simply knowing we need to tap isn't enough, for me there is a particular way to tap in each situation.

Step 2: We will gain clarity about what it is you want and why you want it. We will not take action if we don't have a clear vision because we don't want to waste time or energy. If we are worried that creating a plan is just one more opportunity to let ourselves down, then we will never get around to planning.

Step 3: Making change in our lives often means we have to take new actions and learn new skills. I don't know about you, but I hate feeling stupid and incompetent. In this step we will clear all the worries and fears that come with not feeling like we can take the necessary steps to bring about change.

Step 4: Even if we have a clear plan, we won't take action if we are worried that taking action will have negative consequences. For example, we may worry that others will judge us because they think our goal is silly, or we could be worried that even though we know what to do, we might not succeed and we want to avoid feeling like a failure. In this step we will uncover and tap for all the negative thoughts and emotions that prevent us from taking action.

Step 5: In the last step we will take on the most surprising reason that we fail at making progress. Did you know that we often fear being successful at our goals? We can worry that we will be successful, but then backslide and worry that we will have to work even harder to maintain the success than we do to achieve it in the first place. Similarly we worry that if we are successful at this goal, others will expect us to be successful at everything. In this step we will knock out the fears around being successful.

The program will be delivered in the format of weekly teleclasses (which you can access via the phone or online). In each class I will work you through the steps, answer all of your questions about the process, and then we will tap. At the end of each class participants will have a chance to raise their hand about their personal blocks. I will then tap one-on-one with those participants.

The calls will be held on Tuesdays at 8pm Eastern time, January 17th – February 14th.

All calls will be recorded so if you can't make it, you will still have access to all of the content AND you can go back to tap along again and again.

For my friends in Europe (and everyone else)
I know 8pm Eastern time isn't convenient for those of you who live in Europe (or for some people in the US). So that you aren't missing out on the chance to get your questions answered and your chance to tap with me one-on-one, I will be holding two additional calls on Sunday January 29th and February 19th at 2pm Eastern.

You will have a chance to listen through the previous classes before the calls and get all of your questions answered.

Even if you were on the Tuesday evening call, you can still show up on these calls for some extra help.

Then there are the bonuses
If that was all there was to the program, it would be enough to set you up for success. But to ensure 2017 is the best year ever, I am adding these three bonuses:

• Bonus Call – On February 21st at 8pm Eastern I am going to hold a "Tapping Jam". I will stay on call until everyone who has an issue that has come up over the program has a chance to tap with me one-on-one.
• The 10-Question System – This is a great tool for planning, taking action, and uncovering emotional resistance to taking action. (I sell this for $197)
• Tapping Script Book – I will have all of the tapping we do in class transcribed so that you can go back to tap along without having to search through the audios.

A Bargain At Twice The Price
You will receive the classes, the recordings of the classes, and all the bonuses for only $300.

If I told you that you weren't going to fail at your resolutions this year, would that be worth $300? For this promise I would pay a lot more than $300!

Add One-On-One Help!
Sometimes our issues are just too big for us face alone or we are too close to them to see them clearly. To help with this I am offering the opportunity to add on three one-on-one phone sessions with me.

Even though I am a tapping professional, I still regularly work with someone to help me get through my issues faster.

For only $500 more you can add three one-on-one sessions. Normally I would charge $675 for those sessions, so it is 25% off the session.

Money Back Guarantee
I want you to have the chance to see if this is right for you. If after the first class you decide this isn't for you, just let me know and I will send you a full refund. No questions asked!

Avoid the shame. Avoid the failure. Get it right this year!
Don’t make 2017 another year of missed opportunities. Start off the year on the right foot. Have the success, progress, and transformation you are longing for.

Yes! I am going to make 2017 my best year ever by joining the class: https://tappingqanda.com/?p=12151

Yes! I am going to make sure I progress even faster by joining the program and working with Gene one-on-one: https://tappingqanda.com/?p=12150

What Are Your Questions?
I know this is a lot of information to take in at once. If you have any questions, just reply to this email and I will respond to you directly.

Do it now! What are you waiting for? Avoid the April shame.

Good morning,

Today is my birthday.

On my birthday I like to reflect on all of the blessings in my life. My life is amazing! I have a great family, wonderful friends, I live one of the most exciting cities in the world, and I get a chance to do work that I love.

As a mark of appreciation for how truly lucky I am, to celebrate my birthday the last few years I have used it as an opportunity give back.

This year I am doing something new. It is a way for me to do some good, for you to do some good, and a chance to get a whole year of one-on-one tapping support.

The Biggest Struggle
When someone new joins my mailing list I always ask them about their biggest struggle with tapping. The number one answer is: "I know it works, but I just don't do it!"

How nuts is that!?!

We have this incredible tool, that has the power to transform our lives, that we can use anywhere…and yet we don't use it.

(I use the word “we” because sometimes I don't use it as often as I should either.)

The Offer
I am giving six people the opportunity to tap one-on-one with me every week for the next calendar year.

That's right, every single week for the whole of 2017 you will have access to me to tap on the most pressing issue you are facing that week.

The tapping sessions will each last for 15 minutes. That might not seem like that much time, but you will be surprised at how much we can knock out in 15 minutes, especially when we are tapping together for 52 weeks.

It just like getting an emotional personal trainer for 2017!

And this is not a group program. It will just be you and me!

AND you will receive an audio recording of each session, giving you the chance to go back to tap again and again. So you will not only be getting personal support, you will also be building your own personal tap-along audio library.

The Deal Of The Century
For this opportunity I am only charging $997.

If you were to get me at my hourly rate it would cost just under $3000.

That is 64% off my normal session rate!

I am only offering this once and I am only offering it to 6 people.

The Give Back
All of the proceeds from this sale will go directly into my Kiva account.

Kiva is an international nonprofit organization that provides microloans to small business owners all over the world. Because it distributes the money in the form of loans, your purchase will be used again and again. Once the loan is paid back, I will relend the money to more small business owners to help them pursue their dreams and provide for their families.

The Fine Print
As I am offering my time at such an amazing discount, here is the fine print:

1) You are responsible for signing up for your sessions. I have an easy online process for this, but scheduling the sessions will be your responsibility. You will be given two opportunities to make up sessions that you missed. Beyond that, if you don't sign up for a session for a certain week, you will forfeit the session.

2) There are no refunds. All sales are final.

I'm Not Joking About Only Six People
Because I am giving 100% of the sales from this promotion away means that I am donating my time every week for the next year, so I have to limit this offer to just six people.

I have my online shopping cart set up to allow just six people to purchase this offer. Once six people have signed up, that is it. It is gone forever.

Questions?
Let me know if you have any questions about this by replying to this email. I will be paying special attention to my inbox today so that you get your questions answered right away.

Make 2017 great!

Have a great Monday,

Tired Of Superficial Results, Being Unsure Of Core Issues, And Healing That Just Doesn’t Last?

Over 8 1/2 years ago when I created Tapping Q & A I thought it would be a good idea to build a website around the idea of answering questions. Little did I know just how good an idea that would turn out to be.

At least, it was the best choice for me and my learning.

Every time I sit down to write about a topic in response to a question from one of my readers I learn something.

This is has made me a better tapper. I am better at tapping for my own issues and I am better working with my clients.

Thank you for reading, commenting, and asking questions. My life is better because of it.

AND The Questions Keep Getting Better

One of the neat things (my editor doesn’t like it when I use the word neat, but that is how it feels) I have noticed over time is that the questions you asking are becoming increasingly sophisticated.

Seven years ago more than half the questions I received were some variation on, “What are the right tapping phrases for [insert issue]?” as if there were some magic words to clear a certain issue.

Today the questions are about clearing resistance, the best way to identify and deal with core issues, and the best order in which to deal with issues for optimum results.

It has been a great joy watching the tapping community grow up!

I am sure you are part of this evolution and are looking to be a better tapper, or you wouldn’t be reading this.

Getting Even Better At Tapping

Along with the development of the tapping community there has also been a maturing of the training resources available. There are at least 3 international organizations offering certification and it seems that every practitioner under the sun has created some “new” version of tapping they are teaching.

It is really hard to know which way to turn to expand your tapping tool set.

If you are looking to learn new tapping skills I have something for you to consider.

A Great Big Fat Marketing Mistake

I have put together what I believe are the best of the best tapping tools in what I think is the easiest way to learn them. This is probably a mistake, but I haven’t come up with a fancy name.

If I were a better marketer I would call it something like SuperTapping, Exceptional EFT, The Monterastelli Method, or The Best Gosh Darn EFT Method That Will Make You Rich And Beautiful Beyond Your Wildest Dreams (AKA BGDEMTWMYRBBYWD Method).

To be honest the only name I considered was “Kick-* Tapping Techniques” but I was worried I might offend.

Coming up with names for things isn’t my strength. Look how creative I got with my website name. I created a site that answers questions about tapping and called it TappingQandA.com.

What is lacking in name is made up in what I think is some of the best tapping training available.

Sharing My Tool Set

Over the last 8 years I have been slowly building my own tool set. I have consumed books, DVDs, and attended live trainings. I subscribe to over 50 newsletters and I spend 3 to 5 hours a week just working on improving my own skills.

I have studied NLP, hypnosis, age regression, parts work, neurological function, and guided imagery. I have spent hours with psychologists, doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and psychiatrists picking their brains about what they have learned in their work.

I have spent hundreds of hours and well over $15,000 on building my tool set.

And I want to share that tool set with you.

I have taken my favorite tools, broken them down into simple steps, and presented them in such a way that you can start using them today!

What is taught?

I like presenting things in easy to use chunks so that you can take what you learn and put it into action right away. The class is organized into 8 lessons.

Lesson 1: 13 Foundations to Healing With Tapping That Every Practitioner Should Master
Lesson 2: 18 Lessons From 10 Masters Of Healing
Lesson 3: Hypnotic Patter And Language
Lesson 4: Guided Imagery
Lesson 5: Parts Work
Lesson 6: Age Regression
Lesson 7: Time Lines, Forgiveness Work, and Score Boards Oh My!
Lesson 8: Meta Models

(For a full description of each lesson please see the end of this note.)

Each of these lessons is designed to stand alone. You can start with any topic you want. I love this training because you don’t have to complete it all to improve what you doing. Each step of the way you will be able to do new things with your tapping.

The moment you hit stop on any of the audios you will be ready to try the techniques.

You Don’t Have To Take My Word For It

Here is what some of the students who were present for the recording of this class had to say:

“Gene is a consummate teacher, and his classes are packed with useful, timely information that can immediately be put into use. It’s rare to find a teacher whose intellect is matched equally by a generous spirit. I’d recommend this class to anyone who wants to surge forward in either their own work or their practice” JW, NYC

“As a professional in the therapy field I am thrilled at the ease with which Gene presents complex material and clarifies with such ease what could be intimidating. He has one of those voices that resounds with enthusiasm, gentleness, and wisdom. He knows his stuff! He knows how to share it!” Helen Kauffman MSW, LCSW-C Towson, MD

“Gene has an understanding of human nature and behavior that most people don’t achieve in their lifetime. He’s wonderful about sharing and explaining. He brings a refreshing outlook to teaching techniques. As a practitioner I learned new ways of looking at EFT that I will incorporate into my practice immediately. So, my advice to you is that even if you feel you know this stuff, take advantage and learn from Gene whenever you get the opportunity. You owe it to yourself.” Wendy Merron, WendyMerron.com

But That’s Not All

In addition to the training audios I have these 6 bonuses to sweeten the deal:

Transcripts Of All Classes – Not everyone learns in the same way and sometimes it is easier to read through materials to find that one point you were looking for instead of searching through an audio file. This is over 150 pages of content!

Two Bonus Hours Of Teaching (plus transcripts) – Since the original recording of the training I have added two more hours of advanced tools. The hour on “Making sure you are solving the right problem” has revolutionized the way I do tapping work.

30-Minute One-On-One Coaching Session – Do you have questions about the material covered in the class, about other topics, or looking for someone to talk through a tough client with? You will be able to have a One-On-One coaching session with me to ask anything you want.

Audios Of Four Sessions – Want to hear exactly how I use these tools with my clients? You will receive four audio sessions of me working with real clients. There are two audios for each session. Audio one is an uninterrupted version of the session so you can get the flow. Audio two is interrupted from time to time with me explaining what I was thinking and why I did what I did every step of the way.

PowerPoint From All Presentations – All eight lessons were originally taught live using PowerPoint. You will receive copies of all PowerPoint slides so you can follow along.

Marketing Mumbo Jumbo

This is the part in the note where I am supposed to tell you how much all the bonuses are worth so you see the value in what you are getting. You are getting all the PowerPoint slides, all the transcripts, 4 hours of Q&A, four client sessions where you see these tools in action, one-on-one time with me, and two bonus hours of training.

I know these bonus materials are worth as much (if not more) than the price of the training program itself. I could tell you exactly what I would charge for each of these pieces. You might believe me, or you might think it is some marketing trick.

I know this for certain: this is A LOT of added value and it will transform the way you tap with yourself and the way you tap with clients.

40% Off

The Advanced Tapping Training normally retails for $497.

For the next two weeks if you use the discount code “spring2016” you will receive 40% ($200) off the price full price.

Guarantee

I know this is going to take your tapping to the next level, but if for some reason it doesn’t work for you let me know. I don’t want you to spend your money in a way that isn’t useful. Just drop me a note in the first 30 days and I will refund all your money. No questions asked.

You don’t want to miss out on this.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the training.

Gene

PS: Imagine what it is going to be like to get longer lasting results faster.

Full Descriptions Of Audio/Video Content

Lesson 1 — 13 Foundations To Healing With Tapping That Every Practitioner Should Master.
In over two hours of audio and videos we will cover:
* Tapping: Not the basic recipe as a formula, but a comprehensive way of seeing tapping protocols
* Everything We Experience Is Internal. Everything We Experience Is Interpretation
* The Three Minds
* Models Of Information
* The Client As An Eyewitness To Their Own Life (Conference Room Of The Mind)
* Everything Exists To Serve Us, AKA: The Power Of Thanksgiving
* Resistance To Change
* Pain Vs. Suffering
* Stages Of Awareness
* Inspired Action Vs. Inspired Outcome

Lesson 2 — 18 Lessons From 10 Masters Of Healing
There is much to be learned from the great teachers and masters in many different healing fields. We can learn from their teachings, how they learned themselves, and how they work with clients. In this section we will look at 18 different lessons from giants in the healing fields that have transformed the way I work. If you master even a handful of these lessons, it will transform your work.

Lesson 3 — Hypnotic Patter And Language
The lessons I have learned from hypnosis have affected not only the way I talk to and communicate with my clients, but every interaction that I have during the day. There are two main skills we can learn from hypnosis: building rapport and navigation/guidance.

RAPPORT: If we are NOT able to build rapport and gain the trust of our clients then it will be very difficult for us to work together. In this lesson we will explore the way a hypnotist uses language before, while inducing, and during a trance. We don’t have to hypnotize our clients to use these tools to help us to create a relationship of trust as well as more easily guiding our clients to finding their root issues. Because of the nature of hypnosis this rapport is essential and, knowing this, a good hypnotist is working on building rapport even before they speak with the client the first time. There is much tappers can learn from this approach.

NAVIGATION/GUIDANCE: In fact all hypnosis is nothing more than self-hypnosis. A hypnotist is nothing more than a navigator. They are providing instruction and guidance as the client works their way to root causes and transformation. We can learn a lot from this strategy when helping our tapping clients. Not only will this help us to get out of our clients’ way, but also we can learn how better to help clients transform.

Lesson 4 — Guided Imagery
Most of the emotional work we do with clients is done in the subconscious mind. (Note: A comprehensive video lesson on the unconscious, subconscious, and conscious minds is part of the pre-class work.) We can’t directly access the subconscious mind to change it (and this is a good thing) so using guided imagery is a gentle and powerful way to create transformation at the subconscious level. In this lesson you will learn the seven steps I use in guided imagery that allow the client’s subconscious to lead us to the root of the issue, plus the concept of “fairytale physics” which will unlock your client’s creativity.

Lesson 5 — Parts Work
There is no tool that I use more than parts work. Over 90% of the sessions I do use some form of parts work. When we help a client approach their issues through the lens of a part we are able to help them to focus in on a small part of something that is much too big to deal with at once AND we are able to discover the solutions to the problem that the system already has. This is the most powerful tool I have in my tool kit. In this lesson you will learn the many different types of parts work (including parts mediation), how to gently guide the client to find their way to root causes, and how to empower clients to use these tools and resources after the session so that their healing can continue.

Lesson 6 — Age Regression
Age regression is a very specific type of parts work, so I devote a complete lesson to it. In age regression we are working with the younger version of the client. (Anytime we are thinking of a past memory it is a version of age regression.) In this lesson we will not only look at what age regression is, but we will look at how we can easily bridge back into the past to find the root of an issue, determine if we have worked back to the earliest memory, and how to heal/transform once we are in contact with these earlier parts.

Lesson 7 — Time Lines, Forgiveness Work, And Score Boards Oh My!
In this lesson I cover three of my favorite tools in my tapping arsenal. I never plan to use these tools, but there are times when working with clients when it will become obvious that one of these three tools will help a client much quicker than just tapping on the thought or emotion they are feeling. These tools are simple to use, each with an uncomplicated step-by-step formula.

Lesson 8 — Meta Models
It is amazing how inaccurate our language is when we are describing what is going on in our lives. “Everyone at works hates me!” “I am never going to get ahead!” “I just can’t do it!” There might be a kernel of truth in these statements, but they are not true. The problem comes when we approach the world as if they are true. Meta Models is a set of tools that helps us to recognize the logical fallacies in our thoughts and words that are affecting our actions and choices. In this part we will explore the 10 most common meta models, ways of helping our clients to see the flaws, and strategies to help clients transform these beliefs. In the practical part of this lesson participants will get the chance to work through real client case histories to practice identifying and reframing these meta models.

Good morning,

I was having dinner with a friend I’ll call “Sally” at a place that serves the most amazing chicken and waffles.

As we were enjoying dinner she explained that she was having a really hard time. She was in the middle of a move. Her job was stressing her out. She was thinking of changing careers. AND she had been sick for weeks.

I was listening closely as caring friend.

She stopped. Looked me dead in the eye and said, “I know you like to leave your work at work, but right now I don’t need my friend Gene. I need Gene the coach. Help!”

So I smiled, ordered another drink, and began to ask her some questions.

It Only Took 10 Questions

Over the next 45 minutes I asked her ten questions. With each answer she gave I repeated back what she had said in my own words and asked a few follow-up questions.

At the end of 45 minutes she said, “Wow! You’re so smart. Thank you for helping me out with that.”

The funny thing is, I didn’t say anything smart.

I didn’t offer any advice. I didn’t make any suggestions. I didn’t help her plan anything.

I simply asked ten questions and in the process of answering those questions she was able to see clearly what she wanted – and, more importantly, needed – which led to knowing the steps she needed to take, and the emotional blocks she needed to clear in order to be successful.

These Are Not Random Questions

When Sally asked me to put my coach hat on I didn’t just start asking her random questions, but instead I worked her through a specific process designed to move us from confusion, to clarity, and then to action.

The 10 Question System (I know it’s not an awfully catchy name) is very powerful and something I use in my own life as well as with my clients.

This system guides me when I’m trying to do something as small as reorganizing my office or something as large as creating a new product line.

I Want You To Learn This System

On the surface this system looks super simple and that is because it is simple.

BUT just because something is simple doesn’t mean that it is easy to do at first.

To that end I have created a training program that will walk you through the full system. Not only will you know the right questions to ask and the right order in which to ask them, but you will understand the motivation behind each of the questions.

Once you master the why of each question it will stop being a formula and start to be something that you can integrate into your daily life as you make choices, as you are helpful to your friends and family, and can be integrated into client work if that is what you do.

And it is not just ten questions!

Each step along the way I teach you how you can tap for the information that comes up from each of the questions. You are not just figuring out what you want and need but also how to clear the issues that will (and always do) come up along the way.

What Is In The Program?

The system consists of more than 4 hours of audios which will teach you:

• How and why we create limiting beliefs, and how to break down your goals in a way so that you can find every fear and limiting belief lurking in your subconscious.
• Tools to knock out these limiting beliefs anytime, anywhere. THIS IS KEY: Not only will this tool set help you when you are sitting at home working through your goal list, but when any fear or limiting belief pops up in any situation you will be able to knock it out.
• How to recognize when limiting beliefs are holding you back (because sometimes we don’t even see them).
• In addition to more than 4 hours of instruction you will also receive a digital workbook that will take you through the ten steps. Because this system works for any of your goals, when it is time to go after the next one you’ll easily be able to print out a fresh copy of the workbook to guide you through the steps.

Bonus Tools To Help You Achieve Your Goals

This system is great at uncovering the root causes for not taking action and the limiting beliefs that make it difficult for you to take action.

I want you to be successful. I want you to achieve your goals. To that end I am adding 4 audio bonuses that you can use to knock out these common beliefs and fears:

Resistance To Change: If there weren’t resistance to change we would already have changed. Sometimes this resistance has nothing to do with the specific change, but is about change in general. This audio will make you more comfortable with change, which will help you to take action. ($13.77 value)

Being Open To The Process: It can be scary to think that we will uncover our fears and limiting beliefs. This audio will help you to know that it is safe and good to do this investigation and work. ($13.77 value)

Believing You Are Worthy of Better: Almost daily I talk to clients who don’t believe they deserve a better life. This audio helps you recognize your worthiness, which will help you take action. ($13.77 value)

Permission To Be Easy With Yourself: We are our own worst critics. We are harder on ourselves than anyone else ever could be. When we are kinder and more loving towards ourselves we are able to move forward faster. ($13.77 value)

That is $55 in free tap-along audios that you can use over and over again.

Very Special Deal

The system normally costs $189, but for the next two weeks I am making a special offer. In addition to the $55 in bonus tap-along audios you can get the system in one of three ways.

1) The Full Program: You receive the bonus audios and the full program for only $97. That is a 49% discount. Get It Now!

Good morning,

As you may know, for two years I was lucky enough to teach tapping as part of an advanced anger management class in a county jail.

Yes!

I had guys in prison jumpsuits tapping along with me and really liking it.

I quickly realized that a number of inmates would never make it to my classes because of other obligations, such as studying for their high school diploma or working through a rehab program.

So I wrote a book containing all the tools I taught in class to make this powerful and transformative emotional work possible for them, despite not being able to attend the class.

It’s Not An Anger Management Book
One day in class I had the guys writing answers to some questions be used with the next tool I planned to teach them.

One of the guys stopped and looked up at me. He said, “Mr. Gene this isn’t an anger management class. This is an emotion class.” He paused for a second or two and then said, “And I’m OK with that,” and returned to his work.

He was right. I only framed the class as an anger management class because I knew that it would appeal to a lot of the inmates. Many of the men I met in jail were there as a direct result of their inability to control their anger. None of them would have been looking for an “emotions class”.

Once I had them on board with the approach and gained their trust, we could spend time on the deeper issues that were showing up as anger.

So this book is not an anger book, despite its title. It is about responding to all emotions in a healthy and proportional way.

The Best Resource I Have Ever Produced
Of all of the tools I have created, I believe this the best one! The comprehensive tools it teaches are presented in a straightforward, user-friendly, step-by-step fashion.

In the last week I have sent pdf copies of it to five of my clients. I told them, “I think that you’d find this tool in my anger book really useful. Let me send you a copy of it.”

I want you to have a copy of it too!

You Can Have A Copy Free Of Charge
I believe in the power of the tools in this book and I’d love everyone to be using them so I have set up a ‘name your own price’ deal for the pdf version of the book.

Which means that if you want a free pdf copy you can have one.

All of the proceeds from the book sales go towards supplying copies of the books to inmates. Each one costs me about $3.20 to print and send to an inmate. So if you do decide to buy it you will know exactly how many men and women you will be helping.

If you don’t want a pdf version the book you can also purchase a Kindle or paperback version. (Unfortunately, I can’t do name your own price for those two versions.)

I Will Match Your Contribution
In addition to all proceeds of the sales going buying more books I am going to match all sales in March and April with an equal donation to Kiva.

Kiva is an organization that makes micro loans to help people move from poverty to being able to take control of their circumstances. Socio-economic factors are a key contributor behind why people commit crime.

This way we are helping people who have made poor choices and helping people in desperate need avoid having to turn to crime.

You can access the book here:

Paperback for $19.95

Kindle Version for $9.95

Name your own price and download a PDF version. (And, yes, you can make that price $0!)

I Am Serious About The Book Being Free
