Deeper work

EFT & NLP Practices

These are evidence-informed protocols, gently re-voiced. Move through them slowly. The work is not in finishing the steps, it is in letting yourself be honest while you do them.

EFT

Tapping for what you're holding tonight

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) uses gentle tapping on meridian points while voicing what is true. It is not magic. It is your body being allowed to tell the truth without being punished for it.

The tapping points, a visual guide
  1. step 01

    Name it

    Rate the feeling from 0–10. Be honest. Then complete this setup phrase, tapping the side of the hand (karate chop point): 'Even though I feel ___ right now, I deeply and completely accept myself.' Say it three times.

  2. step 02

    Move through the points

    Tap 5–7 times on each, repeating a short reminder phrase like 'this fear', 'this tightness', 'this grief': eyebrow, side of eye, under eye, under nose, chin, collarbone, under arm, top of head.

  3. step 03

    Re-rate

    Breathe. Re-rate the feeling. If still above a 4, run the round again, but let the phrase evolve into something closer to the truth underneath.

  4. step 04

    Close softly

    End with one round of something true and gentle: 'I am safe in this moment. I am allowed to be here.'
