Though classifying issues as ‘cognitive-emotional’ or ‘physical’ belies the holistic understanding that Tapping practitioners have about the mindbody, the examples below are broken into these two categories for convenience’s sake.

Cognitive-emotional Issues

I have shown clients in Sonoma County how they can tap on a wide array of cognitive-emotional issues. What follows are sample descriptions of my clients’ presenting issues. In all cases cited, clients achieved total or significant symptom relief (either a temporary or permanent).
 
  • 13 years ago a woman was treated for cancer. On the day I met with her, she reported frequently thinking about the possibility that her cancer may return. In addition to this disturbing thought, she also touched her throat frequently to see if she could detect the return of the cancer. At the end of our session her countenance had visibly changed. She smiled widely and said that, even though she was trying, she couldn’t bring up thoughts about the cancer and that her mind was now at ease.
  • A client said that he gets very nervous in social settings. On the day I taught him to do Tapping, he rememberthe last time it happened. It was about a month prior to our session while at his sister’s birthday party  he recalled feeling “a state of uneasiness / like he was not on firm footing / like didn’t belong” at his popular sister’s birthday party. He said that he is always keenly aware of other people’s gaze on him and that he doesn’t like to be observed. After we Tapped, his face lit up. He reported perceiving the memory of this party not only as a pleasant experience, but in his memory of walking amongst the party-goers, things had slowed down and no longer caused him upset. 
  • A mother reported constantly thinking about her daughter’s strong character and being highly stressed because of it. As a result she said she often feels sluggish and tired. She later revealed that her daughter says disrespectful things which, in turn, cause her great sadness. After two rounds of tapping, my client began to feel more relaxed. After more rounds of tapping, she reported seeing an image of her daughter's smiling face come to her mind. By the end of our session, this mother reported feeling almost no sadness, and zero sluggishness.
  • A woman reported fear, worry and “terrified anger” with regards to husband’s incipient dementia. She reported consternation over the little things her husband does that reveal the onset of his condition which, to make matters worse, nobody else notices or knows about. After some tapping she realized that underneath all of her emotions that gave rise to her presenting issue (terrified anger), was sadness about losing “her rock, her best friend, her lifelong companion.” After tracking this sadness she eventually came to discover that she also felt tremendous guilt for losing her patience with him. After still more tapping, she would finally come to accept her guilty feelings* and realize that she can be more accepting of her husband’s condition.

(*One of the principal goals of tapping is acceptance of what is. Through acceptance arises a feeling of freedom that also generally leads to a sensation of personal empowerment that has to be experienced to be understood.)

Physical Issues

Most everyone is aware of some of the effects that our emotions can have on our physical well-being. For example, stress can cause headaches or even ulcers. However, what is much less well-known is the fact that humans have a natural propensity to channel emotional stimuli into the rest of the body wide variety of physical conditions. As such, when a person is a able to identify what emotion 
 
  • A woman reported being under intense pressure at her job two years prior to our session. At that time, she suffered from headaches as well as discomfort in her lower back and calves. Only her lower back and calves continued bothering her the day I taught her Tapping. After three rounds of tapping, she reported her level of discomfort dropping from 5  > 2 > 0.
  • A man in his 70s said that, for about the past six months, his calves have been hurting when he stands. He reported that he also experiences a slight feeling of numbness and tiredness in his legs. He associated this condition with the weight he has gained in recent years. After advising my client to consult his doctor for this issue, we began tapping. He reported feeling more relaxed after the first round of Tapping and said his intensity level had dropped from 5 > 3. Here my client changed his description of what he was experiencing and said that what he was feeling was akin to a “slight irritation”. After a final round of Tapping, he reported the intensity level at 1 to 2.
  • Client reported feeling discomfort in her shoulders and said it dated back to around the time that her husband started drinking. After one round of Tapping, she reported the discomfort level dropping from 8 > 2.
  • A 59-year old woman initially reported having had discomfort in her shoulder for eight years because of repetitive movement at work. After describing in greater detail what she felt, she added that the discomfort runs up and down her arm all the way to her hand. After one round of Tapping, her level of discomfort dropped from 8 > 5. After more discussion and deep breathing, she said she could no longer feel the discomfort in her forearm. She opened and closed her hand several times as if to show me it didn’t cause her discomfort. She commented that the sensation was only present now in her shoulder (which felt like pins and needles mixed with slight cramping) and the top of her arm extending down to her elbow. After another round of tapping, she noted that she  no longer felt pins and needles in her shoulder and that the sensation of discomfort had moved from her shoulder to above her waist. She reported feeling pins and needles above her waist, in addition to a slight burning sensation. The first measurement of intensity for this new location was 4. After a subsequent round of Tapping she reported that the sensation from both her shoulder and her waist had reduced to 0.
