Welcome to Season 1 of caregiver tea time!
Episode 2
Let’s get it together with Eft: “Tapping”
“Please remember you are totally worthy of being deeply and completely loved and accepted!”
The Emotional Freedom Technique, also known as Tapping. EFT has a lot of research behind it and has been shown to successfully address many emotional challenges. EFT has been called the psychological version of acupuncture for emotions!
In this episode Val shares how to do the Tapping technique and how she explored using tapping when she was in New York City with her son, who was getting treatment at a speciality medical center in the city.
Val guides the listener through an example of tapping, which uses a set-up phrase and then repeated tapping at several sites on the body while restating a reminder phrase. The set up phrase states the emotional problem and ends with the words “I deeply and completely accept myself”. This phrase is repeated 3 times to start the tapping round. The reminder phrase restates the problem. Val also shares a particularly stressful situation in which her Tapping provider guided her through the tapping technique and the great relief she felt from the experience.
