Glad you like it.<br><br>Recently I've also discovered, and this just cracks me up, that this technique is enormously useful when you're in a bar, & a friend needs help with clearing something that's stressing them out. You can just sit there, surrounded by punters, getting healthier, happier & better all round, and nobody has the slightest clue what you're up to - or even notices *grin* Awesome! Glad you like it.

I used to do the full tap series in my car during my commute. It doesn't look as strange, that is, until you do the whole facial contortion thing. It works well and have turned others on to the unique clearing process. <br><br>Thanks for sharing! This is great. I used to do the full tap series in my car during my commute.

Often only one point is blocked. As your sensitivity improves, you can often just tap that one point for the same effect - but you do have to tap meridians. You couldn't just tap, I dunno, your elbow :)<br><br>There are little meridians on the edges of your fingers, between tip & 1st knuckles (I didn't just randomly pick them *laugh*)<br><br>The ritual/rhythmic nature of it does definitely help though, you're very right.<br><br>.. & thank you. I just haven't had much to say. Professional bloggers HAVE to post all the time - it's their job, after all. I figure it makes more sense to just post when I have something worth saying. Everyone is so busy, & time/attention starved. There's no point in just adding to the mental noise in the world. That's what I figure, anyway. I'm sure I'll kick back up again soon enough.

I think that the tapping serves two puropses apart from the pressure points thing: 1. It keeps the mind from wandering (just like the ritual set of bows etc in Islamic prayers !) It keeps the conscious mind on the tapping, not letting it "think" about the issue, and this lets out things from the subconscious mind.<br><br>BTW have been missing your posts lately !

I love EFT, but yeah, I definitely don't need any help looking any crazier than I probably already do :) So, I'll keep this in mind :) That's really interesting!

I always had trouble sleeping...ha ha not much has changed it is 3:30am...so I would tap my fingers in rounds. I had no idea that it could be helpful or that I would later discover EFT, it just felt calming.

Super happy to hear it. There really are a ton of useful techniques out there - & combining them all (eating well, being surrounded by loving people, giving, gratitude, exercise, energy healing, etc) works super well.<br><br>Everyone has shit in their lives, of some kind or other. Just a matter of finding anything that helps get rid of it :) Am glad EFT is resonating for you, it is a super useful thing. Oh wow, that's great Lucy-Ann. Super happy to hear it.

Learning about this, and other amazing techniques (just learned of the AIM program) and of course wonderful healing food, and helping others is the key to life really!
