So in this video we'll do some tapping on morning overwhelm and anxiety So start by getting into a comfortable upright seated position.
And I'll go through the tapping process before we dive in to addressing the specific feelings about our morning routine,
Whether we wake up feeling anxious with our mind racing,
Or we're worried that we won't follow through on a goal.
So when we start tapping,
We start here at the side of the hand.
Here we state a challenge and an affirmation.
And I'll state a phrase out loud and then I'll give you the space and the time to repeat after me.
And I think it's best if you can speak these phrases out loud.
But if you're not in a place to do so,
You can say them in your head.
So we'll do that three times,
That challenge and then affirmation.
And then we'll tap through the points.
Starting with top of head.
The eyebrow point.
Side of the eye.
Under the eye.
And don't worry,
We will go a little bit slower than this.
Under the nose.
Chin point.
Collarbone.
Under the arm Risk point.
And side of the hand so that is the structure that's how we'll do this practice Let's get into it.
So we're going to start here at the side of the hand.
I invite you to just take a slow breath.
And let it go.
And check in on your level of overwhelm feeling anxious about the day I've had.
Feeling like your mind's racing.
And with EFT,
We use a scale,
A subjective unit of distress scale.
Zero is calm and at peace.
And 10 is feeling completely overwhelmed.
So make a mental note of where you are right now on that scale from zero or one to 10.
And repeat after maids.
Even though I'm feeling overwhelmed about starting another day.
I choose to trust myself and my process for moving forward.
Even though I feel this tension in my chest.
I am creating space and safety in my body now.
Even though my mind is racing in the morning when I wake up.
I would like to love accept and forgive myself.
As I am in this moment.
And take a breath.
And let it go.
And we'll go to Top of Ed.

Okay,
So let's pause tapping.
And take a slow,
Deep breath.
Let it go.
First,
Notice how you're feeling in your physical body.
And now if you can,
Check back in with that number.
On the scale from 1 to 10 with your level of overwhelm and anxiety.
Let's keep tapping together,
Recognizing any lingering anxiety,
That challenge,
While adding in some affirmations through the tapping points.
So we'll start at top of head.
I still feel a bit anxious.
My bro point.
It's okay that I feel this way.

Under the arm,
I choose to focus on each task carefully and with mindfulness.

So we'll pause tapping again,
Take another slow breath in.
Let it go.
Checking back in with your level of overwhelm,
Anxiety on that scale.
And now we'll add in some affirmations through the tapping points.
And ideally you would add in these affirmations through the points when your number is at a four or below.
So we'll start at top of head.

Pause,
Tapping again.
Take one final slow breath in.
Let it go.
And do one final check-in.
With that anxiety that maybe you felt in the beginning.
And notice where it is on that scale from one to 10.
Ideally,
You would end this practice being as close to zero as possible,
Feeling calm,
Rounded,
And grateful.
Thank you so much for showing up for yourself.
You did it.
Even if it was uncomfortable,
You still showed up and you did this practice.
I believe in you.
Sending you so much love and blessings.
Take care.
