Tap into your Power

Learning to trust EFT Tapping is one of the best decisions you can make in your life. We need critical thinking and healthy scepticism in this world, but we also need to trust the good things. EFT Tapping is one of the good things. It helps you discern what is safe and what is not. To learn more about the online tapping group The Nest, go to http://bit.ly/NestFounders

Allowing is about facing up to the darkest stuff and dealing with it. Being resilient. Not giving in.  But not necessarily with cathartic drama (though of course if that is necessary, do it). Maybe with a cup of tea and a twinkle.  Tapping can get you there. To learn more about the online tapping group The Nest, go to http://bit.ly/NestFounders

Can you imagine relaxing, without collapsing?  This is not the relaxation of letting go to fall asleep, or to receive a massage.  It is the relaxation of being alert, but with no unnecessary tension.

This month’s theme is Compassion. It’s worth working with self love. It is not a selfish act, but rather gives you strength to love. Please don’t confuse self love with self aggrandizement or egoism. It is about realising that you are lovable and loved. But we can’t simply jump to feeling lovable and loved if we feel unlovable and unloved. So today’s exercise is a simple way to start.

When you love, there is the opportunity to let go of all the judgements, all the limiting beliefs and all the tight containers that keep you small.  But actually loving, real love, passionate love, quiet love – and not a saccharine greetings card love– that is not so easy.  Because of all those thoughts, all those feelings and all that “stuff” that stand in the way.  So we practise… “Even though I have this issue, I love and accept myself.” Let me talk to you about the magic of the EFT Tapping Set Up Phrase.

Although many people may really want to change – they are tired and fed up of the same repeating patterns, when they really dig in to look at their beliefs, they do not believe that change is possible. This may be you. “Of course I want to lose weight, make more money, get over that childhood trauma”. But if deep in your mind you don’t believe that is possible, it is very hard to tap and clear. But imagine if you really believed change was possible, then it makes that change so much more likely. That is when the fun begins! This is what this podcast is about.

Sometimes you feel conflicted. All those different voices in your head are jostling and it is hard to be clear.  Tapping has an ability to help you focus. It brings to the surface that which needs to be surfaced then polishes the gold to a high gloss while clearing the dross. This is where discernment comes in.  You are able to carry on with the things you want to carry on with and you are able to make your decisions with ease - both those are essential to stand in your power.

You can apply this exercise to any evalution of a project, a relationship or even a future plan, but this episode is about adding tapping at year's end.

This episode talks you through how to tap for yourself for the everyday Shadows - those times you notice yourself holding back from doing something, you are avoiding or feeling anxious about something. Everyday Shadows are there in every compulsive behaviour, judgement or fear. Tapping is so versatile but the first thing is to be able to find and use your own words to tap with. Claire walks you through an example of this everyday tapping for anxiety so you can use those same tools for  yourself.

This episode talks about what to do before working directly with the Shadow - those parts of ourselves that get in the way of open heart and connected action. Sometimes the fear of opening up a Pandora's box of memories and fears is very real. There is a very safe way to start working with the Shadow and that is to look at and work with our relationship to working on it in the first place.  It may be fear or boredom or lack of belief it will make a difference. When we tap on that relationship, we work with the Shadow in a safe and contained way. Then we can feel much more comfortable to begin to explore.

This episode talks about the concept and practise of Gathering - that is, being "in relationship to" as a  Loving Witness rather than being inside the fog or overwhelm of our own internal lens. EFT Tapping allows us to be in relationship to the Shadow in a safe and contained way. The Shadow is a way of naming those things which get in the way of open heart and connected action - the beliefs, judgements and fears which seem to be real and which are completely tappable.

Tapping can really help at times of transition, whatever the transition is. This episode allows you to tune into your own transition and tap on that.

The best results from EFT Tapping happen when you actually tap! EFT has a reputation as a "miracle cure" and quick results from specific things can happen, but more often you need to tap over time. In fact, this is one of EFT Tapping's best user-friendly aspects. It is so available to you to tap whenever and wherever you need. This episode goes into the reasons why you might want to make tapping a habit, the different sorts of regular tapping and what to say as you tap.

Tapping for Hope is intended as a way of opening a chink of light when the world seems overwhelming or bleak. It does not replace regular tapping for the speicifics of the situation, but can help open the door to that tapping. It is also great at any time, even if you feel happy to begin with!

Doubt can be debilitating. So much doubt is based on lack of trust or worry, doubts based on fear or not being "good enough". And it is these doubts that we can tap with EFT Tapping. Listening to your doubts and tapping on them. Recognizing the limiting beliefs and fears that stop you in the first place. So that although no-one knows the future, you can tap for the best outcome as possible, including the possibility that tapping can work! Of course, doubt can also be an essential part of discernment. That is not the topic of this podcast.

EFT Tapping is an excellent modality for clearing trauma, loosening the binds of limiting language and thought forms, freeing emotions and setting you on the path to fulfilment. But it can be a spiritual practice too. By spiritual practice, I mean a daily or frequent practice that widens the space between the everyday cacophony of modern life and that blissful stillness that can be experienced in meditation. Tapping can do this to perfection. In this episode I talk in particular about one aspect of tapping that has "spirituality" built in to the very basic words we use.
