[Tapping/EFT Q&A] - What If I don't "Completely Love And Accept Myself"?

Published: Thu, 01/14/10

 


Dear ,

As you read this I am leading a retreat in the Houston area. If you have a spare moment could you offer a thought or prayer for the 40 people I am leading?

1) One of the most common things I hear from tappers (clients and practitioners) is, "I don't like using the set of phrase 'I love and accept myself.' Do have to use that phrase as a set up?" In this weeks featured article I examine why we should or should not use the phrase. (link below)

2) This week's podcast is with Rick Wilkes. Rink is just brilliant. Whenever I interview him it feels much more like a conversation than a standard interview. In the interview we chat about the feelings of fear, safety, and how these emotions relate to not only daily life, but also the healing process. Remember, you can subscribe to the podcast through the iTunes music store so you will receive podcast the moment they are published. (link below)

3) Keep your questions coming...this weeks feature article came directly from a reader's question. http://tappingqanda.com/contact

4) Do you have something you would like me to surrogately tap for? It's free. Just drop me a note at http://tappingqanda.com/contact

blessings,

Gene

NEW & FEATURED ARTICLES

Fear, Anxiety, Safety, and Freedom w/ Rick Wilkes (Pod #24)
Writing a description of an interview with Rick Wilkes is always a difficult task. On the surface there is the topic at hand for the interview, but when we are chatting things move more much far afield into deep issues of healing and well-being than just the topic at hand. In this interview we talk about the spectrum from feeling completely and irrationally unsafe to complete and total inanition. Anytime there is resistance to change it is really important to ask "Do we feel safe making this change?" In the interview we talk about a number of ways of framing this question to make is more accessible for every issue. In addition to talk about extreme fears and uncomfortable situation we talk about finding space that is safe to heal and what true healing means. This is not just about eliminating fear, but being in a space of feeling alive in every way.

What If I don't "Completely Love And Accept Myself"?
Gary Craig and many other practitioners use the phrase "I love and accept myself" sometimes adding "deeply and completely" in their set-up phrases. I don't know about you, but I've come in contact with quite a few people that have a real aversion to this statement. Seems to me, that if we loved and accepted ourselves, most of our 'problems' would not exist in the first place. Do we need to use this phrase while tapping?
