This EFT tapping meditation is to think about anxiety we might be experiencing.
You might be experiencing this in your body or in your mind and we're all different in the way we experience things so if any of the wording of this meditation doesn't fit your experience please do feel free to change the words for something that feels true to you.
If you need to learn the EFT tapping sequence you can find videos for this and I'll post them in the description below.
Please take responsibility for your own well-being throughout and if anything feels overwhelming remember that you can stop,
Pause and come back to this at any time.
So let's begin.
Begin by tapping the side of the hand.
I'm just going to ask you to check in with yourself as to how you're feeling.
Noticing what you feel in your body or mind.
Is the anxiety you're feeling mild or does it feel quite intense?
Just notice that,
Make a mental note and let's begin.
So keeping tapping the side of the hand and repeat after me either out loud or in your head whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
Even though I have this anxiety I'm acknowledging how I feel and I choose to love and accept myself anyway.
Even though I'm noticing this anxiety right now I'm still choosing to love and accept myself anyway.
Even though there's anxiety now in my body I still deeply and completely love,
Honour and accept myself where I am today.
Tapping the inner eyebrows.
I'm feeling this anxiety.
Tapping the outer eyes.
I'm noticing anxiety in my body.
Tapping under the eyes.
Maybe I'm noticing some anxious thoughts.
Tapping under the nose.
This anxiety is with me now.
Tapping under the mouth and I don't want to feel this.
Tapping the collarbones.
Maybe I'm pushing away this feeling.
Tapping the side of the chest.
This anxiety that I'm feeling in my body and mind.
Tapping the top of the head.
All of this anxiety that I'm feeling and now taking a slow breath into the belly.
You can stop tapping now and then releasing slowly and easily.
Take a second to check in.
Noticing what you feel in your body.
Any thoughts or feelings which are coming up for you.
Noticing the intensity of your anxiety.
Does it feel the same?
Less intense?
Maybe more intense?
Just notice what you feel.
And let's do another round together.
When you're ready tapping the side of the hand.
Even though I have this anxiety I'm acknowledging how I feel and I deeply and completely love,
Honor and accept myself.
Even though I'm noticing all this anxiety I'm acknowledging this now and I'm open to the possibility of maybe letting some of this go.
Even though I have this anxiety and I don't like it I'm acknowledging how I feel and I'm working on this now.
Tapping the eyebrows.
Noticing this anxiety.
Outer eye.
Noticing the remaining anxiety.
Tapping under the eye.
I can still feel some anxiety under the nose but I'm acknowledging this anxiety now.
Tapping under the mouth.
Anxiety is my body's way of telling me something.
Tapping the collarbones.
And I'm curious about what my body's telling me.
Tapping the sides of the chest.
I'm listening to my body now.
Top of the head.
I'm listening to what my body needs.
Tapping the eyebrows.
Anxiety says that something is wrong.
Tapping the outside of the eyes.
But maybe nothing's wrong right now.
Tapping under the eyes.
Perhaps this anxiety isn't serving me.
Tapping under the nose.
I'm letting my body know that it's safe right now.
Tapping under the mouth.
Tapping under the mouth.
In this very moment I am safe.
Tapping the collarbones.
I don't need this anxiety right now.
Tapping the sides of the chest.
I'm telling my body that it's okay to let this go.
Tapping the top of the head.
And I'm open to the possibility of maybe releasing some of this anxiety that's no longer serving me.
When you're ready,
Bringing this round of tapping to a close and taking that slow easy breath right down into the belly.
And again checking in with how you feel.
Noticing any shifts.
And then I'll invite you to join me in a last round.
When you're ready,
Tapping the side of the hand.
Even though I have this anxiety,
I'm acknowledging this is my body's way of keeping me safe.
And I'm open to the possibility of letting this go.
Tapping the eyebrow points.
This remaining anxiety.
Tapping outside of eye.
I can still feel some anxiety in my body.
Tapping under the eyes.
But I realise this anxiety is not serving me.
Tapping under the nose.
And I'm open to the possibility.
Tapping under the mouth.
And releasing some of this tension.
Tapping the collarbones.
I'm acknowledging this anxiety.
I'm not pushing it away.
Tapping the sides of the chest.
And in this moment I know that I'm safe.
Tapping the top of the head.
Inviting this anxiety to release.
Inviting relaxation into my body.
Telling my body it's safe.
It's safe to be relaxed now.
When you're ready,
Bringing this round of tapping to a close.
Breathing right down into the belly.
And breathing out through the mouth slowly.
Taking another deep breath.
Easily into the belly.
And sigh out through the mouth.
One more breath in your time.
Breathing in.
And sighing out.
As we bring this practice to a close.
Checking in again with your body,
Mind and spirit.
Noticing how you feel.
You can repeat this practice whenever you need.
Or maybe you noticed something coming up for you underneath that anxiety.
Maybe a feeling like anger or rage or sadness.
Maybe you noticed a memory.
Maybe something else.
You might want to do some tapping on these things by yourself.
And to do that you just follow the same tapping sequence and use your own phrases.
Remember that you hold the key to your own healing.
I hope this has been useful for you and I wish you luck.
Take care.
