The Strangest Way To Improve Self-Discipline? Tap For Better Sleep

June 20, 2013 by Gene Monterastelli

Good Morning!

I don't know about you, but when I get up in the morning I normally have a good idea about what I need to achieve that day.

I might not like what I have to do and I might not know how it will turn out, but I know what to do.

But even when I know what to do, I don't always have the self-discipline to the actions required to achieve it.

This week I found some interesting research on how you can do something while lying down that will improve your self-discipline and I show you how to tap to make that happen.

Check this simple process: https://tappingqanda.com/?p=9119

This week I also I have an interview with Terry Lynch. We talk about love, how we shield ourselves from others in an unloving way, and how to do the protocol EmoTrance. We even do a little work on my feeling of overwhelm with the logistics of moving to another city.

You can hear this great interview (and what it is like to have me as a client) here: https://tappingqanda.com/?p=9125

As always, please let me know what I can do for you.

Gene

Pod #114: Love is Letting Go of Shields w/ Dr. Terry Lynch

June 19, 2013 by Gene Monterastelli

Years ago a friend of mine wrote a book called “Real Love In A Pizza Love World”. In English at least, love is a tricky word. We use it for so many things, and in so many ways, that sometimes it can be hard to get our mind wrapped around the idea of wanting to be loving and be love.

In this interview with Terry Lynch we talk about the way she approaches the word love, and also demonstrates the protocol of EmoTrance on me.

Want To Improve Your Self-Discipline? Tap For A Better Night’s Sleep

June 17, 2013 by Gene Monterastelli

I recently came across this very interesting quote on one of my favorite websites explore:

The amount of sleep you get predicts the discipline your body can produce. Why? Sleep deprivation depletes the glucose level in your pre-frontal cortex, Barnes writes. This has consequences for your decision-making: If you don’t get enough sleep, you leave your self-control engine running on empty. If you do get enough sleep, you restore that fuel base.

I knew that sleep was important, I knew that I always felt better after a good night’s rest, and made better choices as a result.

I just didn't have a clue as to why that was the case.

If you are interested in the full research study on what was discovered you can check out details on the study.

Now that that is clear, did you know that it is really easy to tap for good night’s sleep?

Here is how I tap for a good night of sleep. The link will take you to the tapping script I use before I go to sleep and also a pdf you can print out and put on your nightstand so you don't forget to do it.

Tap for a good night’s sleep.

Get a good night’s sleep.

Improve glucose levels in your pre-frontal cortex.

Make better choices tomorrow.

Everybody wins!

Do it tonight: Tap for a good night of sleep!

Talk About, Talk To, And Talk As If

I love what all my guests have to share. If that weren't the case they wouldn't be on the podcast. With that being said the guest I have learned the most from is Gwenn Bonnell.

The EFT For Improving Performance interview rocked the way I see the healing process and led me to write There Is No Such Thing As An Emotional Action.

I love it when readers and listeners share their insights about the podcasts. What Does Forgiveness Really Mean? has been the most commented upon episode.

From time to time I get interviewed. Here is the favorite interview I did:

The Inconvenient Truth About Shame And Guilt

June 13, 2013 by Gene Monterastelli

Good Morning!

We all know that shame and guilt are debilitating.

When I am feeling either of those emotions I would rather hide under the covers or eat unhealthy quantities of cookies and cream flavored ice cream than face the world. (Yes, cookies and cream ice cream is my go-to for unhealthy emotional eating!)

I hate feeling guilty or ashamed! But did you know that when we feel these emotions we are more likely to make choices that hurt us AND more likely to hurt others as well?

Here is the inconvenient truth about shame and guilt (I warn you that if you read this it will change the way you approach these emotions): https://tappingqanda.com/?p=9085

Once we realize we need to deal with shame and guilt (or any other issue for that matter) we need a plan of attack for tapping.

This week I wanted to share with you how carrying an eraser in my pocket has transformed the way I tap.

If you have ever wondered how I think about my personal tapping work, here is the key: https://tappingqanda.com/?p=9093

I hope you find these two tools helpful this week!

As always, let me know what I can do for you.

Gene

How Carrying An Eraser In My Pocket Changed The Way I Tap – Tapping is not about tapping something in or tapping something out. It's about clearing away what is unneeded. In this podcast I explain how an eraser helps me to know what to tap for.

Your Guilt Is Holding You Back AND It's Holding Others Back – Over the last few weeks I have done a lot of writing and recording on guilt and shame. It is clear that guilt and shame can hold us back, but did you know that guilt and shame can hurt those around you too? Here is why…
