Dear ,

One of the tasks I enjoy the most when putting this newsletter together is searching for the photo that appears here. All I do is go to flickr and do a search of the photos that I am legally allowed to use under the creative commons license.

Most of the time I pick a photo that in some way is related to the content of the newsletter. Today I was just reflecting on how beautiful the morning is here today. So I typed the word "morning" into the search engine.

I was blown away by the beauty of the photos by so many amateurs and pros from around the world. This really has nothing to do with tapping, but if you are looking for a quick escape while you are sitting at your computer just go over to flickr and type in a word like morning, summer, trees, kids, or love into the search engine. Within a few minutes you will be surrounded by beauty.

1) New Resources: There are two new resources on the site this week. First, we look at how hard (but also how important) it is to let go of burdens (esp. the ones we carry for others). Second, we have part two in the series on creative ways to tune into issues. (link below)

2) Tap-Along Audio @ no cost: I receive a lot of great feedback on what the next few tap-along audios should be. One of those audios is going to be provided at no charge to everyone in the Tapping Q and A facebook group once we break 250 members. If you haven't joined please do. If you have joined please invite a friend (or three).http://facebook.com/tappingqanda

3) Store Redesign: I am in the process of redesigning the on-line store. Before the end of the year I am going to adding level 1, 2, and 3 audio trainings as well as new tap along tools, script books, adv-training, and practice building tools. Is there a specific topic that you would like to see address? Let me know http://tappingqanda.com/contact

4) Questions and Tapping Request: Do you have a question or surrogate tapping request? Let me know. http://tappingqanda.com/contact

Peace,

gene

Letting Go
Often times when we are approaching transformation we look to adding new skills and resources (to do new things) or to heal past wound (that have us trapped in the past). These are great paths to pursue with our work, but they are not the only paths.

Many times we are carrying emotions, memories, or beliefs from the past that are no longer useful in the present. We also choose to carry burdens and problems for our loved ones. Letting go of these no longer useful burdens can quickly open us for healing of the issues we face in this moment.

Creativity Boosting Techniques That Accelerate Tapping Success (AKA: How To Keeping Tapping When It Gets Boring Or Stale) Part 2 of 4
Mechanically tapping/Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a very easy thing to do. All you need is to provide stimulus to the tapping points plus tuning into the issue at hand. The tapping part is easy; what can be hard is the tuning in part. Often we are so close to an issue or we have been working on an issue that it is difficult to see it clearly.

Recently Jeremy Dean's PSYBlog had a very interesting two part series (via kottke.org) which explored 14 of ways we can become more creative and more efficient problem solvers. In this four part series I am going to explore how we can apply many of these insights to tune into our issues in new ways (plus a few of my own).
