What to Expect When You Begin Tapping

Be ready to let go of beliefs or learnings that may have been helpful at one time in your life but are no longer serving you now. Be prepared to let go of unwanted negative emotions and physical sensations that may be causing you undue burden.

After learning the technique, you may be able-immediately or after some time practicing-to deal with life circumstances that presently seem overwhelming. You may also be (unwittingly) dealing with mental blocks that don’t let you get started on a project or make a decision you have been contemplating for some time. The fact is that, through Tapping, people frequently experience a rapid change in how they perceive their life circumstances in ways that are inconceivable to a person with no experience doing energy work.

What to Expect During Your Tapping Sessions

We will spend the first part of our meeting zeroing in on one aspect* of a ‘Tappable’ problem. I will then teach you the basic protocol that is used for all issues (i.e. cognitive-emotional or physical) so that you are able to use this self-help modality on your own, right away

The Mechanics of Tapping

This protocol entails:

● creation of a set-up phrase
● creation of short reminder phrases based
on the set-up phrase
● Tapping the nine meridian points used
in the ‘basic recipe’

During every Tapping session with me, you can:

Expect to be listened to.
Expect support and encouragement.
Expect your feelings to be gently accepted without judgement.
Expect to find new insights and perspectives.
Expect to feel lighter and more relaxed.
Expect to have an emotional first-aid tool you can use for the rest of your life.
Expect to feel more accepting of yourself which will allow you to move more confidently through your daily life.

*To be Terrific, You Must be Specific

E.F.T. protocol requires that you Tap on only one troubling aspect (i.e. emotion, sensation or thought) at a time. When you have pinpointed a single aspect of an issue, Tapping can be very effective at neutralizing or softening the brain’s automatic response to it. It should be noted here that after a client has identified, tapped on and resolved a troublesome emotion, sensation or thought, a second one frequently arises that also needs to be Tapped on. This is not only a normal occurrence but also helps explain why we often have what seem like inextricable problems: what we think of as a single problem is, very often, for the mind, multiple problems that exist simultaneously.

Intellectualizing vs. True Acceptance

Carl Rogers once said: “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” The type of acceptance he was surely referring to is what I call ‘true acceptance’. True acceptance happens when your mind, lets go of any and every pretense that a situation be different from what it actually is (or was), i.e. your mind perceives a situation in it proper dimension and without any additional baggage that the subconscious

An integral part of getting relief from cognitive-emotional issues (which, often hold physical issues on place).

What to Expect After Tapping

When you practice E.F.T. Tapping, you may get much more than you bargained for!

Oftentimes, when an issue has been bothering you for a long time, you minimize its effects on your life. Perhaps the issue began so long ago that you are able to keep it mostly outside of your awareness. Or, conversely, you might assume that a highly bothersome issue is something you simply have to live with. In any case, when Tapping is successful, the results can produce an (astounding) freeing feeling that begets a sensation of personal empowerment.
