Energy Tapping
Energy Tapping (also known as Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT), is an easy-to-use way for you to free emotional blockages by gently tapping on yourself on acupuncture points on your upper body.
All emotions affect the body.
Positive energy flows with ease and grace and it feels wonderful to be in the flow of life.
Negative energy, however, causes energy blocks that makes it so difficult for us to be the calm, confident and capable person we know we are.
Tapping is a quick and effective tool that you can use yourself to emotionally prepare for pregnancy and birth.
...and...
You can use it during your birth. I've used Tapping for clients during childbirth and found it to be exceptionally helpful.
One interesting Energy Tapping phone session was with a client en route to the hospital for an induction of labour. She was feeling trapped and frightened and we tapped on that for about 15 to 20 minutes.
We completed our call before she arrived in Labour and Delivery at her downtown Toronto hospital and she was feeling much better. So much better, in fact, that contractions had started on their own and she didn't need the medical induction. Her baby was born that night.
Personally, I use Energy Tapping a lot throughout my day - I love modalities that are fast, easy, effective and don't cost me a cent every time I use it!
Energy Tapping
Energy tapping is simple and effective and is sometimes known as “emotional acupuncture” but without the needles.
It looks a little odd, but it works!
You tap with your fingertips on certain key power points on the body.
While tapping, you will state a truth about how you feel - usually a negative emotion or non-supportive belief.
Tapping on the negative helps to clear out the unpleasant emotion / belief.
When we tap on a positive statement, it strengthens the good feelings in us.
The Energy Tapping points are:
Use your fingertips of one hand to lightly tap on the following:
Side of the hand (sometimes known as the "karate chop" point)
Top of the head
Start of the eyebrow
Side of the eye
Under the eye
Under the nose
Under the lower lip / chin
Collarbone
Under the arm

The Energy Tapping "recipe" is something like this:
Side of the hand - repeat 3 times:
Even thought I have this ____________ (i.e. upset / anxiety / sadness / worry, etc), I deeply and completely love and accept myself.
Top of the head to underarm points:
This ___________ (i.e. upset / anxiety / sadness / worry, etc)
Keep tapping on the points from the top of the head to the underarm until you feel better or the feeling is resolved.
Then, repeat a positive suggestion as you tap on the points. For example:
This better feeling
or
This feeling of relief
or
I'm choosing to feel better, etc
