The workday is done.
Whatever it held.
The meetings and the deadlines,
The decisions and the conversations.
The things that went well.
And the things that are still sitting with you.
All of it has brought you here.
To this moment.
To this threshold.
Because that is what it is,
A threshold.
A place between one part of your day and the next.
Between the person who shows up for work and the person who shows up for home.
For yourself,
For the people in the moments that matter most to you.
And right now,
In this space,
You have a choice.
You can carry the workday forward with you into your evening,
Or you can set it down here,
Now.
This is your ETF tapping session.
For transitioning from work to home.
A few minutes to close the workday completely.
Clear what you're carrying.
And step into your evening,
Present,
Open.
And ready for what matters most.
Find a comfortable position.
Let your body settle.
Close your eyes if that feels comfortable.
Take a slow breath in through your nose.
And release it fully through your mouth.
And another,
Longer this time,
Breathing in.
And letting it go.
One more deep breath in.
And as you release it,
Letting go completely.
Letting go of any stress,
Any worry,
Any tension I want you to notice what you're carrying from today.
Not to analyze it or solve it.
Just to acknowledge it.
Is there tension in your body?
Are your thoughts still running?
Is there a conversation you're turning over?
A task that did not get finished.
A worry that's following you home.
Just notice.
Without judgment.
On a scale of 0 to 10,
Where 0 is completely present and at ease and 10 is fully in work mode,
Still carrying the weight of the day or stress or tension or worry,
Where are you right now?
Pick a number intuitively and note it down.
We'll revisit it at the end of the tapping session and see if it's moved.
So let's start tapping together.
I want you to bring your fingers to the karate chop point on the side of your hand and begin tapping and repeating after me.
Even though I'm still carrying the workday with me.
Even though I'm still carrying the Workday with me.
I give myself permission to set it down now.
I give myself permission to set it down now.
Even though my mind has not fully switched off yet.
Even though my mind is not fully switched off yet.
I choose to close this chapter of my day.
I choose to close this chapter of my day.
Even though there are things still unfinished.
Even though there are things still unfinished.
I trust that they will wait for tomorrow.
I trust that they will wait for tomorrow.
Even if I have not done everything perfectly today.
Even if I have not done everything perfectly today,
I know that I have done my best,
And that is enough.
I know that I've done my best,
And that is enough.
Stop tapping on the side of your hand.
And bring your fingers to the inner edge of your eyebrows and begin tapping softly and repeating after me.
All the things I still carry from today.
All the things I still carry from today.
Tapping on the side of the eye,
The conversation still turning in my mind.
The conversation still turning in my mind.
Tapping under the eye.
The tasks that did not get finished.
The tasks that did not get finished.
Tapping under the nose.
The decision's still weighing on me.
The decision's still weighing on me.
Tapping on the chin.
The tension I've been holding in my body since this morning.
The tension I've been holding in my body since this morning.
Tapping on the collarbone,
All the mental noise I still carry past the end of my working day.
All the mental noise I still carry past the end of my working day.
Tapping under the arm.
Work that is following me home.
Work that is following me home.
And tapping on the top of the head.
I did what I could do today.
The rest can wait until tomorrow.
I did what I could do today.
The rest can wait until tomorrow.
Stop tapping.
Take a slow breath in.
And release it completely.
As you release.
Feel yourself relaxing.
So we'll move into our second round of tapping,
Starting with the inner eyebrow.
Tapping on the inner eyebrow and repeating after me.
I am choosing to close the workday now.
I am choosing to close the workday now.
Tapping on the side of the eye.
I release the tension I've been carrying.
I release the tension I've been carrying.
Tapping under the eye.
I'm beginning to relax.
It's safe to do so.
I'm beginning to relax.
It's safe to do so.
Tapping under the nose.
What is unfinished will wait for tomorrow.
When I can approach it with fresh energy and care.
What is unfinished will wait for tomorrow.
When I can approach it with fresh energy and care.
Tapping on the chin.
I do not need to solve anything right now.
I do not need to solve anything right now.
Tapping on the collarbone.
I released the workday completely.
It is done.
It is complete.
I release the workday completely.
It is done.
It is complete.
Tapping under the arm.
I am crossing the threshold now,
From work to home,
From doing to being.
I am crossing the threshold now,
From work to home,
From doing to being.
Tapping on the top of the head.
The workday is behind me.
My evening is ahead.
The workday is behind me.
My evening is ahead.
Stop tapping.
Take a breath in.
And release it slowly and completely.
We'll move now into the final round of tapping.
To welcome in the evening.
Starting with the inner eyebrow.
I am present now.
Here in this moment.
I am present now,
Here in this moment.
Tapping on the side of the eye.
I'm open to a meaningful evening.
I'm open to a meaningful evening.
Tapping under the eye,
I bring my full attention to what matters most to me now.
I bring my full attention to what matters most to me now tapping under the nose.
I'm available for the people I love.
I'm available for the people I love.
Tapping on the chin.
I'm available for the moments that matter.
I'm available for the moments that matter.
Tapping on the collarbone.
I welcome an evening that restores me.
That nourishes me.
That reminds me of what I'm working for.
I welcome an evening that restores me.
That nourishes me,
That reminds me of what I'm working for.
Tapping under the arm.
I am home.
I am present.
I am here.
I am home.
I am present.
I am here.
And tapping on the top of the head.
The workday is complete.
My evening begins now.
The workday is complete.
My evening begins now.
I approach it with presence and openness and grace.
I approach it with presence and openness and grace.
I am grateful for what is waiting for me.
I am grateful for what is waiting for me.
And I live my evenings with joy and gratitude.
And I live my evenings with joy and gratitude.
Stop tapping.
Take one more breath in.
And let it go completely.
Let your hands rest where they fall.
Let your face go soft.
Unclench your jaws Relax your shoulders Let your whole body settle and relax.
Just take a moment and really breathe in that feeling.
Of connection.
I find it helps to put a hand on my heart.
Breathe in deeply.
Connect with my body.
Connect with my spirit.
I invite you to check back in with that number from 0 to 10.
Remember that zero is completely present and at ease.
And 10 is fully in work mode,
Anxious,
Stressed,
Or worried.
Carrying the weight of the day.
Where are you now on that scale of 1 to 10?
And have you brought it down a little bit?
Stepping more presently into the current moment,
Mindful and aware.
I want you to notice the difference.
If the numbers come down,
That's your nervous system responding to a direct signal that it's safe to relax.
The workday is complete and the evening is yours.
You did enough today,
Whatever got finished and whatever did not.
You brought yourself to it,
And now you get to bring yourself to something else entirely.
The people waiting for you,
The moments that are about to unfold,
The evening that is yours to inhabit fully and freely.
Work will be there tomorrow.
And tonight is right here now.
Take one more breath.
Slow.
Easy.
Complete.
And step into your evening.
Present,
Open,
And ready for what matters most.
