<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week I want to tell you about a very cool technique called tapping. It&#8217;s also referred to as <a class="zem_slink" title="Emotional Freedom Technique" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_Freedom_Technique" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank">EFT</a> and probably other names I&#8217;m less familiar with. The thing I really like about tapping is that it&#8217;s simple, it&#8217;s easy, and it&#8217;s effective. Basically, the tapping process stimulates certain key points along pathways in the body called meridians. As you tap the <a class="zem_slink" title="Pressure point" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_point" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank">pressure points</a>, you also talk through what is bothering you and in the process, you release the blocked energy and the negative feelings.</p>
<p>When I first learned about tapping, it made sense to me. I&#8217;ve always been a fan of <a class="zem_slink" title="Acupuncture" href="http://www.business.com/healthcare/acupuncture/" rel="businesscom" target="_blank">acupressure</a> (Thanks, Mom!) I&#8217;ve used acupressure points over the years to get rid of headaches and other pain in my body. I also believe that when we repress emotions, they get trapped in our body and cause all kinds of negative side effects. So I immediately bought the idea that you could stimulate acupressure points to increase energy flow and release trapped emotions. I&#8217;ll admit that when I first tried it, I did feel a little akward. The acupressure I&#8217;d used all my life did not entail talking! I dabbled with tapping off and on for a while&#8230; which consisted of checking out video&#8217;s on youtube that demonstrated the EFT/tapping technique and walking through some of the various scripts. My interest was piqued&#8230; but I wasn&#8217;t sold.</p>
<p>Then I stumbled across an event that changed the way I thought about tapping. The Tapping World Summit. There are 10 days of recorded <a class="zem_slink" title="Interview" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interview" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank">interviews</a> with Tapping experts who walk you through various tapping scripts. It&#8217;s a pretty cool way to not just read about, but really experience, what tapping is all about. Each day&#8217;s recording are available for 24 hours. 10 days x 2 interviews per day equals a lot of calls! But even if you just listen to a few of them, it&#8217;s free and awesome &#8211; and you really can&#8217;t beat that! What I experienced when I was listening to the tapping calls was a sense of lightness and calm. It made me realize how powerful the process can be.</p>
<p>I use EFT/tapping on my kids quite a bit. It&#8217;s great stuff and both of my kids ask for it now when they&#8217;re not feeling great or they can&#8217;t fall asleep. Kids tend to be great subjects because they don&#8217;t have all the baggage of what will &#8220;work&#8221; and what won&#8217;t! We have so many great tools at our disposal these days. If this tapping business resonates with you, I encourage you to check out the Tapping World Summit at <a href="http://www.tappingworldsummit.com">www.tappingworldsummit.com</a>. I&#8217;m going to try to take the time over the next 10 days to listen to as many interviews as I can. I&#8217;ll be doing my best to balance work, family and spirituatl growth &#8211; it&#8217;s quite an act! Actually, one of tonight&#8217;s presentations is titled, &#8221;Overcoming Overwhelm for a Life of Success.&#8221; Yes, please!</p>
<p>Love and laughter!  ~Rashel</p>
