Your connection to people you care about can interfere with your tapping. But only when you’re not aware of the possibility. When someone who is important to you shares your issue or the experience it came from, your subconscious can send up a red alert. It says, “I don’t want to release this issue. I’m [...]
This tapping tip can really speed up your EFT. The secret: unhook your feelings about your topic from your need to DO something about it. They are two separate things. By untangling them right at the start of your session, you’ll be surprised at how much easier it is to let go of things. Watch [...]
When you’re tapping, it’s easy to be slowed down by subconscious resistance (aka “reversals”). These are beliefs and thoughts related to your main issue that you don’t realize are working against you. They are off your radar, so they don’t occur to you when you tap. Remember – they are subconscious (below conscious recognition). These [...]
Do you want to feel better immediately about what’s going on right now? Tap on resistance. This is the one factor that’s always present in one form or another when you’re uncomfortable. So if you don’t know what else to tap on, start there. I did this the other day. I was talking to a [...]

I don’t see what it has to do with me now. I don’t remember much about my childhood. Let’s work on current [...]
Speaking from (way too much) personal experience, I know how it feels to be critical of other people — not so great. Even if I’m feeling so right about it all! It’s still a crummy feeling to experience. And it doesn’t change a darn thing except making me feel worse. So I want to pass [...]
This challenge showed up with a client yesterday, so I dusted off a topic from last year to remind us all about how tricky it can be to do EFT about the people we’re closest to. Resentment and hurt and love are often tangled up together. So when you tap on an issue with these [...]
(If you’d rather listen, turn up your speakers and click the arrow.) When it’s hard to get started, finding incentive can turn into a huge project in itself. Know what I mean? Now you’ve got another thing on your to-do list: Dig up a way to get motivated. Well, I’ve discovered a secret: If I [...]
This is a question that comes up a lot for clients– maybe not in those exact words or with that clarity. Often not even at a conscious level. But the question is there in some form. Not having an answer to that question might create fear, which can keep you holding onto inner junk — [...]
