Emotional Freedom Technique Tapping Sequence for Anxiety Relief #anxiety #stressrelief #feeling

Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT tapping draws on the ancient Chinese practice of acupuncture, which teaches that the body's energy travels along specific pathways. Certain points on these pathways are stimulated to improve the flow of energy. 

EFT Tapping is an easy-to-learn technique that involves “tapping” on the meridian points of the body while repeating statements that help us focus on an issue from which we're seeking relief, like chronic anxiety.

Tapping on al the ends of the meridian points with affirmations can help remove stress, stuck energy, cravings and even just odd emotions you want to shake off.

I’ve been using this technique with myself for many years, and more currently with my clients with very good results. It’s like it rewires, or creates new neural pathways in the brain.

Negative self-talk can create well worn neural pathways that can become obsessive thought loops, which can release stress hormones that keep us in fight, flight or freeze mode. EFT Tapping can shift these negative thought patterns by tapping on specific meridian points on your body.

You start by focusing on a thought, feeling or emotion by recalling a memory of an experience, or perhaps a sensation in your body, like tightness in your chest or pain in your stomach.

For instance, I’ll use one of my issues - performance anxiety. So I would recall how I felt before a performance, how I felt the butterflies in my stomach, the thoughts I was having like I’m an experienced professional I shouldn’t be feeling this, and so on.

Supercharge this practice by looking at yourself in a mirror while you recite the phrases.
