Doing the process
The diagram indicates the tapping points we use. Using the points on the
upper part of the body only is quite often sufficient to bring about the
desired relief (Known as the short cut). Using the additional points in the
hand can provide further opportunity for "straightening out" the energy in
our bodies.
1. Start by identifying the issue you would like to work on.
2. Rate the intensity of the feeling on a scale of 0 - 10 at the current
moment where 10 is the most intense; so for example the intensity
of your head or back ache, or the intensity of any emotion - fear,
anger, sadness etc.
3. Then by either massaging your "sore spot" or by tapping your
"karate chop point", say three times...
Even though I have this (insert problem here)______________ , I
deeply and completely love and accept myself.
4. Then, tapping on each point approximately 7 times each and
starting from the eyebrow point, tap on each point in the order they
appear down the body. After the under arm point, finish off the cycle
at the top of the head.
5. Do this tapping sequence twice (point 4) using any two fingers along
either side of the body - it is not necessary to tap on both sides and
it is completely OK to alternate from one side to another. Using two
fingers again seems to work in that it increases the chances of
targeting the exact point.
6. Once you have done two rounds of tapping, score the intensity of
the problem on a scale of 0 - 10. The problem could have:
A. Disappeared completely - well done!
B. Reduced in intensity - do more rounds of tapping, adjusting
the wording appropriately (e.g. "even though I still feel a bit
sad or I have this remaining sadness, I deeply and completely
love and accept myself")
C. Changed to something else or in the case of a physical pain,
moved to elsewhere in the body (do further rounds of tapping,
adjusting the wording appropriately)
D. Increased in intensity - this is relevant feedback and again
alter your wording to fit what you are feeling as you do further
rounds of tapping.
7. Stop when you feel relief and ready to move on.
