Pod #393: The Reason You Aren’t Tapping? You Aren’t In Enough Pain!

When people unsubscribe from my mailing list they have the opportunity to leave a comment.

I recently received a really interesting comment from someone who was unsubscribing from my list. She wrote:

“I am very busy at the moment and I don’t have time to practice, so I feel stressed out.”

I find that a fascinating comment. She is saying that her life feels so out of control that the thought of doing something that will make it better (like tapping) is too overwhelming!

The reason she isn’t willing to take the time to tap? It’s not because she doesn’t have the time or know how.

The reason is because she isn’t in enough pain.

I’m serious.

In the podcast I explain why being in pain can be a really positive thing AND how we can cultivate this pain to help us to take action.

Pod #392: The Two (Surprisingly) Different Outcomes That Come From Tapping

by

My first memory of using EFT on my own was getting rid of one of the most profound headaches I had ever had in about 90 seconds. My second big moment was dealing with my social anxiety.

It makes sense that this is what I thought EFT was all about because in both cases I felt SO much better.

But there will be times when using tapping only as a way to feel better will do us a disservice because it impacts the action we take.

This week I explore the two different types of outcomes that come from tapping and how to make sure we get the outcome that makes the most sense for the issue we are tapping on.

Pod #391: Tapping To Take An Action That You Failed At Before

by

Trying again where we have failed in the past is one of the hardest things to do.

I was recently faced with wanting to do something that didn’t go well in the past. It wasn’t that it went badly, but it was far from as successful as I would have liked, so I was hesitant about trying again.

Here is an audio of me tapping in real time for this issue. You will hear me tapping for the issue and then processing each round of tapping to see what needs to be tapped on next.

The tapping produces a useful tapping script and also shows you how I process through issues in real time.

I would love your feedback on the tapping and to know if you find it helpful.

Pod #390: Tapping To Be Our Authentic Self In A Way That Feels Safe

by

Theoretically we all want to be our authentic selves and show up in the world as we actually are.

But for most of us it's just not that simple. From past experience we have learned that there are some situations where others don't understand us, or we have been judged harshly for being our authentic selves.

That makes us reluctant to present ourselves in a way that will be judged by others.

In truth, being our authentic selves is not an all-or-nothing proposition. We can choose how much of ourselves to share, with whom we share it, and when we share it. This will ensure we are doing in a way that is safe for us.

This week I have a tap-along audio and tapping script that will help you to feel safe as you find the ways in which you want to share your authentic self.

Pod #389: I Accept All Parts Of Myself And Send Them Love

by

As many of you know, I also run the member site the Ruach Center. Every day members of the site receive an email from me with a link to a tap-along audio that is designed to conquer self-sabotaging behavior.

Recently, as I was recording one of those audios, I personally experienced a huge emotional shift.

This tap-along is about connecting to and appreciating all parts of our being and our experience. Even though the audio and script are short, it will make you feel more grounded right away.

I thought it would be a great thing to share with everyone, not just the site members.

I hope you find it as powerful as did.
