Tapping For Nervous System Regulation

A short tapping practice that moves through the points on the head and face, the collarbone, the sides of the body and the sides of the hands. At each point you repeat a simple phrase after Anahita, such as "I give my body permission to soften" and "It is safe to soften a little." The words invite you to notice what your body is holding and to let some of that tension go. The practice closes with a quiet moment to rest and notice how your body feels.
