Be Centered - Day Six - Shelby Melissa

Wooo! We've made it to Day 6!

How has this journey been for you? Are you feeling more powerful yet? Keep working your tools, and let’s keep going with one more tool- tapping!

Tapping is also known as EFT, or Emotional Freedom Technique. It seems to be gaining momentum – I first heard about it like 4-5 years ago. You may be familiar with it, you may not! But either way, we’re going to dive into it real quick before we get into your homework!

Tapping is the process of physically tapping on certain spots of the body while repeating the belief or thought. Now, I don’t know a ton about the history of tapping, but I do know that it works for me and how I use it.

So – we’ll be taking the ideas that “I am not powerful. I can’t do anything. I’m subject to the storm.” And “I am powerful. I can shift and create impact. I can emerge from the storm – more centered and more in my power.”

The spots for tapping are as follows:

top of the head
the forehead
sides of the eyes
under the eyes
under the nose
above the chin / under your bottom lip
on your collar bones
side of your chest under your arm
karate chop points

I typically skip the side of the chest because it can be difficult to do and doesn’t flow as well for me. So, in the video I’m attaching for you to follow, we’ll be skipping that point. But you can choose to include it on your own.

*For the sake of safety, and following CDC and WHO recommendations – I’m going to recommend you actually skip all of the face points and just stick to tapping on your karate chop points for now.

You can see the karate chop point illustrated in this photo. It is on the sides of the hands, below the pinky and above the wrist.

So while you have the video to follow along to, please follow along with the statements rather than the points themselves. And keep yourself safe. <3

We’ll be starting with the old programming and moving into the new programming in this quick 6 minute video!

So – make sure you grab a glass of water or something hydrating. Then get comfortable and hit play on the video!

The Tapping Video:

Whew! How are you feeling? Give yourself some time to relax. Maybe some permission to do nothing. Hmm? Nudge nudge. lol.

And that is the last day! You’ll be able to access the last day tomorrow, just to wrap up so that you have time and space within this container to do the video if you are choosing to do it later.

So, I’ll see you one more time tomorrow! <3
