Tapping: A Simple Way to Release Stress

Feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? Tapping—or Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)—is a simple tool that can help you reset, anytime, anywhere.

Tapping involves gently tapping on specific points on your body while focusing on a feeling or thought. This combination of physical stimulation and emotional awareness helps release tension, calm your nervous system, and clear emotional blocks.

Benefits of Tapping:

• Reduces stress and anxiety

• Releases trapped emotions

• Supports healing from past trauma

• Boosts focus, confidence, and performance

• Strengthens mind-body connection

How to Start:

1. Identify the feeling or issue.

2. Tap on specific

   points (head, face, collarbone, underarm).

3. Say a phrase acknowledging the emotion, e.g., “Even though I feel "anxious" , I deeply accept myself.”

4. Repeat the cycle a few times until the intensity lessens.

   
   

   

   
   

Sure there is a little more to it than I have outlined here but in essence, Tapping is quick, portable, and effective. It’s a gentle way to reclaim calm, release tension, and step into a more centered, empowered state—anytime you need it.( see the points in the image )
