Follow this tapping sequence if you're grieving the parts of your life that have changed following a medical diagnosis.
Let's begin by putting both your feet flat on the floor and we'll take a deep breath in.
Let it out.
Now take a moment to tune into that grief.
And then scan your body and see where that grief is located.
Then give the grief a number 1 to 10 for how strongly you're feeling it in this moment.
And then when you're ready,
Let's begin tapping.
We'll start on the side of the hand.
Even though.

That have changed after this diagnosis.
Right here and right now.
