11 years ago this week (special deal)

by

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

Pod #322: EFT When Having To Learn Something New (Productivity Series: 3 of 7)

by

This is Part 3 of the 7-part Productivity Series. Each week we are going to tap for an emotional block to taking action. Check out the full series.

Even when we know the right action to take, it can be difficult to do because we are so good at sabotaging ourselves. The Take Action Now program was created to eliminate  self-sabotaging behavior so you can take decisive action towards achieving your goals. Full details here.

When we are faced with doing something that we don’t know how to do or that we don’t have a great of experience with it is common that we won’t take the action we what.

This is because there is a part of us that want to protect us from failure AND when we don’t know how to do something failure is much more likely.

This tap-along audio (and script below) will help you to take action when you are feeling dumb, struggling because you don’t know where to start, and that others will judge you because you don’t know what action to take.

Tapping to this will make it easier for you to trust yourself when you don’t feel comfortable or competent with the tasks in front of you.

I recognize the fact that I have a lot going on…I recognize that my mind is trying to keep track of so many things…And because my mind is trying to keep track of all of these things…It bounces from place to place…Making it difficult for me to stay focused…And difficult for me to get everything done…I appreciate that these distractions are just a part of my system trying to keep me safe…It doesn’t want me to miss anything…It bounces from idea to idea because it thinks all of the stimulus is important…I know all of these distractions aren’t actually important… I don’t need to pay attention to them right now…But my subconscious mind doesn’t always realize that…It doesn’t always know what is important…It bounces from place to place because it thinks everything is important…But I recognize the fact that it is possible for me to stay focused…And to ignore all of these other distractions…And still be safe…It doesn’t mean I will miss something important… When I focus on what is in front of me…I’m not ignoring everything else…I’m simply setting it aside for the moment…I’m simply avoiding it for now…Once the task in front of me is done…I can return to paying attention to all of the other tasks…I can pay attention to any other idea that my subconscious mind throws up…Because I know these thoughts will not be lost…I will be reminded of anything I need to do in the future…So I give myself permission to focus on what is in front of me right now…Calmly letting go of everything else…Except what I am working right now…And if I am distracted again…I give myself permission to be easy with myself…Simply to let the distracting thoughts pass…Returning to the task in front of me…Without beating myself up for the distraction…As I keep letting these distractions go…It will become easier and easier for me…I will become more focused on my work…I will be kinder to myself regarding these future distractions…I know it is possible for me to be more focused…I give myself permission to find that focus gently.

Pod #320: EFT When We Have An Unclear Vision (Productivity Series: 1 of 7)

by

This is Part 1 of the 7-part Productivity Series. Each week we are going to tap for an emotional block to taking action. Check out the full series.

Even when we know the right action to take, it can be difficult to do because we are so good at sabotaging ourselves. The Take Action Now program was created to eliminate your self-sabotaging behavior so you can take decisive action towards achieving your goals. Full details here.

It’s difficult to take action when we don’t have a clear vision for exactly what we want. A lack clarity about our goals means we have to deal with both the practical and emotional blocks to taking action.

On a practical level it is difficult to take action because we aren’t exactly sure what the best action looks like. A clear vision creates a tangible goal, which leads to concrete steps to take and the order in which to take them. Without that we may struggle to know what the best, most constructive actions are.

On a subconscious level we prevent ourselves from taking action as a way of saving energy and effort. When we don’t have a clear vision, our subconscious mind worries that we might choose to take action that isn’t useful. It sees that we don’t know exactly what we want and knows that any action we take is just a guess as to if it is a useful action. The subconscious therefore prevents us from taking any action as way of ensuring we don’t take the wrong action.

In this week’s tap-along audio (and tapping script found below) we tap for being able to take action when we don’t know exactly what we are moving towards.

I recognize the fact that it is difficult for me to take action when I don’t have a clear vision of where I’m going…When my vision is unclear my subconscious tries to keep me safe…By preventing me from taking action…Because my subconscious doesn’t want me to waste time…My subconscious doesn’t want me to waste energy…My subconscious is worried that if my vision is not clear…Then the actions I take might be in the wrong direction…That the actions I take might be moving away from my ultimate goal…And because it doesn’t want me heading in the wrong direction…It prevents me from taking any action at all…I appreciate the fact that it’s trying to save me energy…I appreciate the fact it’s trying to save me time…By not wasting my effort on something that isn’t useful…When I take action it is an opportunity for me to learn…It is an opportunity for me to get feedback…To see if I’m heading in the right direction…Even if the action I am taking isn’t leading in the right direction…Taking the action can be useful…Because I’m going to learn…I am going to get feedback…And it’s going to give me clarity about what my goal actually is…In moments when I lack clarity…I give myself permission to take the action that seems most logical…Even if it isn’t moving me in the exact right direction…It will help me to learn what the right direction is.

Pod #319: EFT for Betrayal w/ Dr. Debi Silber

by

Betrayal is unlike other emotions because it creates problems beyond the immediate pain we feel when we realize we have been betrayed. Betrayal also sows seeds of doubt at a subconscious level, which can create lasting physical and emotional problems.

This week I have a conversation with Dr. Debi Silber who has dedicated her research and work to understanding how betrayal impacts us physically and emotionally. More importantly, she has also developed a process (Post Betrayal Transformation) to help heal those wounds.

In this conversation we discuss the conditions required for betrayal to happen, how it impacts us, and the first steps towards healing.

During the interview Debi refers to a short quiz that you can take to see if you are being impacted by a past betrayal. You can take the quiz here.
