Hey there, beautiful spirit,
In this heartbreaking and uncertain time, finding inner peace can sometimes feel like looking for a needle in a haystack. Ever felt like anxiety is that one unwelcome guest who tends to overstay their welcome? Believe me, you're not alone. But what if I told you there's magic at your fingertips? Dive with me into the calming waters of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), also known as, "tapping".
What’s EFT, Anyway?
Picture this: the ancient wisdom of acupuncture but minus the intimidating needles. EFT borrows from traditional energy meridians, yet it's as simple as tapping specific points on your body and saying how you feel. This process helps dissolve emotional blockages, helping to usher in tranquility.
EFT as Your Anxiety Ally?
Simplicity is Key: Just you, your thoughts, and your fingers wiping away worries.
Backed by Science: EFT isn't just a trend; it’s rooted in research that showcases its prowess in melting away stress and anxiety.
A Breath of Fresh Air: Feel that? It's the gentle wave of calmness washing over you post-EFT.
Mind-Body Magic: EFT isn't about picking between the mind and body. It's about creating the balance between the two.
Embark on Your EFT Journey:
Pinpoint the Storm: What's that cloud looming over? Recognize it. It could be current events, a memory, or an impending challenge.
Notice How You Truly Feel: Turn that storm into a gentle drizzle. Let’s say you're anxious about an interview; your inner emotions could be fear, not feeling good enough, or catastrophizing.
Find Your Rhythm: While tapping through the points, focus on your emotions, how they feel in your body, and the story you're telling yourself about these emotions. Try to be curious and observe how you feel without judgment. (See image below for EFT Tapping Points)
Look for Calming Cues: Notice if you naturally take a deep breath, or if those emotions you started with don’t resonate anymore. These are signs that you’re beginning to feel calmer.
Safe Waters: Once you’re feeling calm, take a few slow, deep breaths, ending your tapping experience feeling grounded and peaceful. (Want to be guided through this remarkable process? Click here.)
Remember, while the magic of EFT is profound, approach it with curiosity, and an open heart. And if anxiety ever feels like a overwhelming tidal wave, seeking professional help is always the best decision.
Sending waves of calm and love your way
Much love,
Trina
