EFT Step 5 – Revise and Repeat

OK. You have just finished tapping your first rounds on your issue. Before you move on to more EFT, it’s time to adjust your tapping by doing the last 3 steps again with modifications:

  • Reassess your intensity level.
  • Revise your setup statement and say it 3 times.
  • Revise your reminder phrase and start tapping again.

Here’s how that goes:

Reassess your intensity level.

Take a look at the original intensity number you wrote down. . Close your eyes, go inside, and ask yourself, “If I started at a (7), what number is it now?” This will help you to measure in the same way each time, which is important. Then write the new number down.

Revise your setup statement and say it 3 times.

To revise your setup statement, you just acknowledge that things are changing. So now it’s, “Even though I still have some of this worry about tonight, I want to love and accept myself anyway.” And again, you’ll repeat it 3 times, using your setup spot.

Revise your reminder phrase and start tapping again.

And now revise your reminder phrase to “this remaining worry.” Tap one round of “this remaining worry,” and tap a couple of rounds giving voice to how you’re feeling now. It could start like this:

  • Eyebrow: I still feel kind of worried.
  • Side of eye: It’s not as bad.
  • Under eye: Maybe it’s a good thing to be worried.
  • Under nose: Maybe it will keep me on my toes.
  • Chin: No, I don’t think so. I want to let go of this.
  • Collarbone: Oh, I’m not sure. Maybe I let go of enough.
  • Under arm: But I’m sick of worrying like this.
  • Liver: Maybe it will be OK tonight.
  • Wrist: I’m glad I feel better, but I still feel tense when I think about walking through that door.
  • Top of head: Yeah, I’m still kind of worried.

    • Let your tapping reflect exactly how you’re feeling now, even as your thoughts change.

    Stop tapping after a few rounds to reassess how you’re doing. Then use your revised setup statement again 3 times, and tap again with your revised reminder statement, followed by a few rounds of giving voice to the issue. And repeat this process until you’re down to a zero intensity level.
