Pod #555: “AND I choose to put it down…” – My favorite tapping phrases (Part 6)

April 19, 2023 by Gene Monterastelli

One of the biggest obstacles to transformation and healing is our history.

It would be one thing if we were simply trying to add a new worldview or belief, but trying to replace an old belief with a new one is a completely different process.

When trying to create change, we are trying to unroot the lessons that our history has taught us.

In this week's podcast we are continuing the My Favorite Tapping Phrase Series with my go-to phrase for work on replacing the past beliefs that no longer serve us with something that is more useful today

Pod #554: “I’m gentle and easy with myself…” – My favorite tapping phrases (Part 5)

April 12, 2023 by Gene Monterastelli

Our healing journey doesn't always go as planned.

Sometimes we stall. Sometimes progress is slower than we'd like. And sometimes (heaven forbid) we actually backslide.

Hitches and delays are an inevitable part of the healing and transformation process. How we respond to these moments determines how quickly we return to the healing path.

This week, as we continue the My Favorite Phrases Series, I am sharing the tapping phrase I find most valuable when things are not going as planned, why it is such a hard phrase to say out loud, and why that is actually good news.

It is a phrase I use daily when tapping on my own and with my clients.

Pod #553: “I’m open to the possibility…” – My favorite tapping phrases (Part 4)

April 3, 2023 by Gene Monterastelli

A key characteristic of the subconscious mind is how it tends to perceive the world in black and white.

Given this all-or-nothing disposition, it can sometimes be difficult to see a way forward or believe that better is possible.

In this week's podcast, we talk about the power of the tapping phrase “I am open to the possibility…” and how it can soften the subconscious mind's “all-or-nothing” stance.

Not only do I share why the phrase is useful, I also share all the ways in which I use it when tapping on my own issues and with clients.

Pod #552: “I know it is a healing process AND…” – My favorite tapping phrases (Part 3)

March 29, 2023 by Gene Monterastelli

One of the exciting prospects that tapping opens up for us is the possibility of creating meaningful change in our lives.

AND tapping creates that internal change much faster than many other tools.

This speed is great, except for the fact it can also give rise to unrealistic expectations about how quickly we believe transformation should happen.

When the change we want does not happen instantaneously (or as quickly as we would like), it is easy to feel frustrated, or even demotivated, in the midst of the healing process.

This week I share my favorite tapping phrase to help with this frustration.

As an added bonus, of all the tapping phrases I use with my clients, this is the one that is most likely to cause them to laugh (and humor can be a great tool in the healing process).

Let me know how you incorporate a phrase like this one into your tapping in the comments below.

Pod #551: “I give myself permission” – My favorite tapping phrases (Part 2)

March 22, 2023 by Gene Monterastelli

The main job of the subconscious mind is to keep us safe.

It is constantly on the alert for anything in our environment that could be harmful.

This is great…except when it is not.

It is not so great when it causes us needless worry.

Even with its constant desire to keep us from harm, the subconscious mind is good at recognizing the places in our lives where we are normally safe. For example, many people regard their home as a place of safe and predictable sanctuary, so their whole system relaxes when they walk in their front door.

I have found using the phrase “I give myself permission…” can do exactly the same thing when we are tapping. Letting our subconscious mind know it is in a safe space allows it to be less vigilant and more relaxed, which in turn makes healing easier.

In this week's podcast I share the many different contexts in which I use the phrase “I give myself permission…” and how you can start to use it in your tapping right away.
