WOW! Did August zip on by for me!
Here we are yet again watching nature change into another season.
Fall means back to school for many kids. I had an opportunity recently to help a young girl who was just starting middle school and was feeling anxious. In talking to her and trying to find the specific “nugget" or ”aspect” that was making her anxious, she was able to identify she was afraid the teachers might be mean. She had no idea where she got that idea, but it was indeed the reason for her anxiety.
We tapped on those words and soon she was smiling and all the anxiety had resolved. Finding the story we tell ourselves about a particular situation can be very helpful when Tapping.
I had another experience with a client who had an intense back spasm to the point where she had been flat on her back, missing work for 2 days. By the time we Tapped together on the 3rd day, she was functioning, but still had a pain level of 6/10. She had not had an injury per se, just bent over to do a gardening task when the severe pain began.
She was telling herself a story that she was a healthy person but now that she was “getting older, it was all downhill from there”. We Tapped on that belief making it into a silly story she was telling herself, after all, she knows plenty of older people who were healthy and not in pain.
The pain resolved 80% in that 15-minute session, and by morning she was 100% pain free.
I often find some of the beliefs we hold are so powerful in stopping the body’s healing process.
What stories are you telling yourself about an issue that is stuck, whether physical or emotional?
I am happy to help if you get stuck with wording. Often it doesn’t even require an actual session, just a short text, phone call or email. But if you find you are needing more help than that, feel free to book a session and let’s get to resolving whatever “yucky” is getting in the way of your JOY.
I am here for you!
I offer private sessions, virtual or in person if you live near Sandpoint Idaho. Workshops in private homes and Workshops for Staff Enrichment in Workplaces are also available.
Please let me know how I can serve.
