When you were a child, chances are that the adults in your life told you over and over again to be quiet. Because these moments happen when we are young and impressionable, we take them on as being true for all time.
Tap along with this short video to create the space to know that you deserve to speak your truth.

Just because we have a to-do list filled with useful tasks doesn't mean that we will actually have a productive day. Sometimes we waste our time on tasks that aren't even on our list, or we complete tasks on our list that are not the most valuable ones.
Being busy is not necessarily the same thing as being productive.
Here is a simple tapping tool I use every morning to ensure that I actually do the tasks on my to-do list AND I do the most valuable ones.

Recently I was working with a client on the grief she was feeling at missing so many experiences she loves during quarantine. As we were debriefing after a round of tapping she said:
“While we were tapping on the grief I noticed all of these other pools of grief that were inside me from the past. As we tapped it was almost as if the wall between those pools of grief broke, the grief combined, and they all released together.”
Even though this was the first time I had heard this experience described in this particular way, with pools of emotions connecting, the experience itself is common. When we experience an emotion it reminds us of the other times we have experienced that same emotion. If those past emotions are not fully processed, it can feel like we're being hit by a wave of past emotions all at once.
In the moment, we may feel worse because the emotions are getting stronger, but in reality it is a great opportunity to heal. We can clear not only what we are feeling in the moment, but also unprocessed emotions from the past.
In this week's podcast learn a simple five-step process to clear past emotions that bubble up during a tapping session.

On one level we know that human beings are made for love. But over the course of our lives we often pick up stories that lodge themselves in our subconscious minds about how we are not lovable.
This tap-along will help you to be open to being loved.

The world is a very big place and when we think of how we can make an impact on the world and everything going on in it, we can feel awfully small.
In reality, our small gestures and ways of being in the world and how we interact with others can have a significant impact.
Recognizing that our choices do make a difference make those helpful choices easier. This tap-along will help you to be a peacemaker in your world, which will ripple outwards and make a bigger impact.

Most choices aren't black and white, so being of two minds is a common experience. There are pros and cons to both outcomes.
On the finale of this season's Project Runway (US version), one of the contestants, Victoria Cocieru, was struggling with which direction to take with her designs. She said, “In my brain I have a thousand little brains and they are fighting with each other.”
I find that a very evocative way of thinking about the problem.
This week's podcast explores and taps for struggling with being of two (or more) minds when trying to make decisions.

Over the years I have worked with countless clients who, on a subconscious level, didn't believe they were worthy of success. They often feel like success is for others, that they already have enough success – meaning it is someone else's turn – or that they haven't done enough to deserve success, to name just a few common beliefs.
In this short tap-along audio we will create the space for you to know you are worthy of success (and more success than you have now).

Most of us spend at least half of our day at work. Because work consumes so much of our time and attention, stress from the working day can easily spill over into the rest of our lives.
This week's podcast provides a tool that will help you to leave work at work.
This tool applies to all types of work, no matter how many hours you work, and whether you travel to a workplace or work from home.
It takes less than three minutes to do and will not only ensure you leave work stress at work, but will also make it easier to return to work the next day.

Family is complicated. Because they are family we want what is best for them. But at the same time we put up with more from them than we'd put up with from others because they are family. We will allow our family to say and do things that we would not tolerate from anyone else in our lives.
This can cause an internal conflict. How can we be a loving family member whilst at the same time not want to be around the person?
This week's podcast explores and taps for:
Even if you have a great relationship with your family, there will be some parts of the relationship you find frustrating.

One of the main reasons that we tap is to reduce or eliminate negative emotions, but that doesn't necessarily mean that negative emotions are bad. Emotions are just information coming from our internal guidance system.
Tap along with this short video to help you to establish a better relationship with your negative emotions, moving from thinking of them as an enemy that needs to be eliminated, to being able to recognize them for what they are, a useful source of information.
This will promote good emotional health and also improve your knowledge of how to use tapping efficiently.

One of the most difficult parts of the healing process is being able to forgive ourselves.
It's common to believe that if we forgive ourselves, we are letting ourselves off the hook and failing to take responsibility for our past choices.
Self-forgiveness is actually the opposite of this. Being able to move to a place of forgiveness means we are taking responsibility for the past and making sure it stays in the past. When we don't forgive, we're just reliving the past over and over again.
This tap-along audio is a recording of one of my client sessions where we were tapping on the idea of self-forgiveness. I was given permission by my client to use this recording and I have also removed his voice from the audio. This will allow you to tap along as if I were tapping with you.

These uncertain times mean that our emotional guidance system is on overdrive. It is working nonstop to keep us safe because it's dealing with the unknown.
That means we're expending energy all day long in the background as our emotional system tries to protect us. It's like we are starting off every day paying a 20% emotion tax, meaning that we only have 80% of our usual reserves and resilience.

Those who are interested in learning tools such as tapping are often the types of people who are thoughtful and caring. Those are wonderful qualities, but can be taken too far if we put everyone else's needs before our own.
Because this is the case, we (and I am using “we” because I do this too) often don't take the time to care for ourselves or feel bad when we do. Tap along to this short video to ensure that you take the time to take good care of yourself.

One of the most common issues I uncover in my client sessions is the feeling of not being worthy to be here.
It's seldom the main issue my clients present when we start working together, but as we work we find instances from their past where they felt dismissed or ignored by the people who were important to them.
This creates a feeling of not believing you are worthy to be here at this moment. Here is a simple tap-along that will help you to recognize that you are worthy and valuable!

The most primitive part of our emotional guidance system is our fear response. Fear's primary goal is to keep us from dying. I know that sounds like an overstatement, but this is exactly how it functions.
Of course it's good that part of our internal guidance is on alert and doesn't want us to die, but in the modern word just because we fear something doesn't mean there are fatal consequences.
Because of this, our fear can often get out of proportion. When we are acting out of fear we don't make the best choices. Sometimes we just freeze and don't do anything at all.
At the same time, we don't want to be so casual that we become careless.
When I am in a pressured situation my goal is to move from fear to urgency. When I am feeling a sense of urgency I understand that I need to act decisively. While fear makes us feel stuck, urgency gives us focused energy to take action.
Here is a simple tap-along to help move you from a state of fear to one of urgency.

While past choices may have contributed to your present, they do not mean that what comes next is predetermined.
It is all too easy to feel trapped by both past choices and your current situation BUT they do not define who we are or who we can choose to be.
In this short tapping audio we place ourselves at a fresh starting point. This audio is lifted directly from a client session, with my client's permission. I have also edited out my client's voice so that you can tap along as if you are working one-on-one with me.
This is the perfect type of audio to use to start your day! Try using it daily for a week or two and see what shifts you notice.

Grief is a much more common emotion than we might think. It is obvious that we feel grief when a loved one dies, or when an important relationship or job ends.
In reality, grief shows up any time we experience a loss. This could be for an opportunity, an ability, or even something as simple as a predictable daily routine.
For the large changes it is easy to recognize grief. For smaller changes it is much harder. We often dismiss the feelings of grief as agitation, tiredness, or just being off kilter.
As our daily lives have changed so radically with the COVID-19 pandemic, it's likely that we are feeling much more grief than we realize.
Last year I interviewed Lynne Staley, an expert on grief, on how to identify grief and I think that now would be a great time to revisit that podcast.
Use this week's simple tap-along audio and script to help you deal with the grief you are feeling right for your loss of normalcy.

When I was younger I had a hard time accepting the idea that God could love me unconditionally. I believed that I had to earn God's unconditional love.
Meaning that I wasn't understanding that unconditional means unconditional, aka it doesn't have to be earned!
Here's an audio from a client session where we tapped for accepting unconditional love. My client gave me permission to use this recording and I have removed his voice so you can tap along as if you were tapping one-on-one with me.
