Dear ,
Every six months I like to touch base with everyone so that we are
on the same page. The last six months have been amazing for me. I
hope you have found the resources at TappingQandA.com helpful to
your growth and healing.
I don't want there to be any misunderstanding about why
TappingQandA.com exists or what I am trying to do. Here is why the site exists.
As always if there is anything I can do for you please let me know.
The Four Goals Tor TappingQandA.com:
1) To Help Others Become Better At Using Tapping To Transform Their Lives
I love teaching. I find myself teaching with my clients and through formal classes, but I also find myself teaching while sitting on flights, chatting with others in coffee shops, and everywhere else. The goal of the site is to be as content-rich as possible.
Right now there are over 265 free resources on the site. In 2011 more than 150 resources are going to be added. I will admit that some articles are better than others and not every topic is interesting to everyone, but my goal is that every week or two there is one thing that will really help you in your transformational journey.
How you can participate in this goal?
- Read the articles.
- Listen to the podcast. (subscribe via iTunes)
- Tap along with the audios.
- Challenge yourself to learn something new once a week to heal.
- Heal yourself - heal the world. Don't do it for me, do it for yourself. You are worthy of it!
2) Personal Growth
I have found one of the best ways to understand something is to explain it. There have been countless times in which I thought I was going to be writing a quick email to a question when all of a sudden I have completed a 750 word article. When this happens I have taken something I understood and needed to turn it into something much more tangible and useful. When this happens I expand my own toolbox both for my clients and myself.
Also, I spend time seeking-out guest authors to feature and people to interview. This process through research, conversation, and interviews has expanded my own knowledge and tool set. There were a number of podcast interviews for the fall season that just blew my mind!
How can you participate in this goal? Let me know whom I need to have featured on the site.
- Is there someone I need to be interviewing?
- Is there an article that you read that was awesome?
- Is there a topic that hasn't been covered but should be?
- Please let me know.
3) Build My Reputation
Tapping/EFT Q and A is a very personal site. So much so that almost every tapping-related bio I write begins with, "Gene Monterastelli is the editor of Tapping Q and A." All of the resources I create come from a very personal point of view. It is not the only point of view and heaven knows it is not the best point of view. It is just my point of view.
We live in a time in which technology has made it easier and easier for anyone to create content. This is great in giving everyone (not just the connected) the opportunity to share. At the same time it has created a global information library where there is so much information it is harder and harder to find the useful information. With an improved reputation it makes it easier to be heard in the wild, wild west of the interweb.
By creating a quality library of resources my goal is to demonstrate that there is useful stuff I can provide. This leads to more readers/listeners, chances to make more connections, and be invited to be part of other projects.
How can you participate in this goal? Help spread the word.
- If there is an article you think a friend would like, shoot them an e-mail.
- If you know someone who would enjoy the podcast or the website, please tell them.
- If you have a newsletter and would like to share an article with a reader, then do it.
- You could recommend me to be a speaker at an event near you or online.
- If you have learned something specific from the site, take a moment to write a brief testimonial which I could then feature on the site or newsletter.
I can do a million things to get others' attention, but nothing I am going to do is more powerful than you encouraging friends or loved ones to check it out.
4) Grow My Business
This web site is a very important part of growing my practice and providing income. I am not paid directly for the content I create on the site. I understand that if I provide good quality content that it is going to create the opportunity to demonstrate my competency so that when you are looking for a script book, a tap along, a class, or a one-on-one session you are going to think of me and this site.
I understand that 95% of the people who read my newsletter and visit the site are never going to buy anything from me. That is fine. I am glad you are here, but it is an economic reality that if I am not making a living from the paid services I am providing then I am not going to have the time to create the free stuff.

"I was thankful to have the opportunity to do EFT with Gene recently. It isn't often that I have the chance to be tapped with, as I am usually the one who taps for and with others, so this was great! Gene is very patient and thorough with his approach to EFT, and I always felt validated and that he listened very well...the feedback he gave me was very helpful and allowed me to think about my issues in ways that I would not have done before. I especially liked the use of visualization Gene uses, as I 'saw' my traumas presented as a basket containing black, glass bubbles (my own visualization). As we processed my issue with the tapping, those bubbles gradually disappeared...so this was a very concrete way of measuring my progress. I was left with a feeling of peace and felt that my whole body was smiling! Thanks, Gene." R. Ruddock, Wisconsin
"I have felt great since our session. I have made it to work continually, feel better emotionally and am able to better handle the physical aspects of Fibromyalgia. I have stopped being so negative and reactive with negativity. I now take a step back and breath and calm myself prior to saying anything. I don't feel so paranoid that people are out to get me. I even felt good about my job again. I feel like I am slowly crawling out of the despair and depression. I want to keep on working with you to not just feel great, but feel fantastic. Since listening to all of Gene's podcasts his voice is familiar, calming and guiding. If you are struggling with where to start, EFT or finding core issues, I highly recommend Gene. When I was searching for a practitioner Gene was one of the two practitioners I had decided to choose from. I am so glad I chose Gene. He was reassuring and I felt like I all ready had a rapport with him."

"Instructions for living a life. / Pay attention. / Be astonished. / Tell about it." -Poet Mary Oliver
That advice is something that's been difficult for me. I've spent almost 30 years trying to avoid paying attention through emotional eating. I've read the books. I've analyzed things in my head. I've intellectually understood some of the causes... but even when using "do it myself" tapping, my mental analysis got in the way of really connecting emotionally to past events and feelings. My session with Gene took my analytical mind out of the way as he was the one leading the session--so I could get into emotions, the very emotions I have been trying to avoid for years. I found out that having high expectations of myself right now can change my behavior right now--but that having high expectations of a past self that were not met, only brought a sense of disappointment and low self esteem. I feel freer after my session with Gene. And last night, I ate some chocolate after dinner--and then I stopped. I did not continue searching for other things to eat when I wasn't physically hungry. A little sweetness was enough, because that restless feeling wasn't there, that restless emptiness that food isn't really the right filling for. Thank you, Gene. I am actually astonished at how different I feel after one session, and I plan to have more."

"I feel like I know myself better since I did the tapping session with Gene. The session went in a direction I could have never imagined, it was very intuitive and taught me how to trust & follow my intuition more. The day after the session, I had one of the most amazing experiences of my life and I think it is because I did some deep healing and clearing out of old patterns that might have been holding me back. I look forward to having my next tapping session with Gene. Thank you!" J.
"The session with Gene was a wonderfully liberating experience. He put me at my ease quickly, and the session flowed so naturally. He is highly intuitive, calm and professional, and I felt very safe. He is totally present with you during the session and I shifted some large and deep rooted blocks within my system, and although I felt a little tired afterward, I have since felt, and continue to feel, wonderful. I would highly recommend Gene". Karen UK
"Gene is an excellent transformational therapist. He uses EFT in a unique, intuitive and very effective way. I love way he uses the felt body senses to tap away issues that are beneath your conscious mind. Gene is so clear and focused, and able to produce results very quickly. The added benefit of having your session recorded also gives you additional opportunity to revisit your issue and clear even deeper on your own. Thanks for the great work Gene!" L.L.
"I've been working with EFT on my own for over 2 years. In my session with Gene, I experienced first hand what Gary Craig calls 'the art of delivery', and learned how invaluable it can be to work with a skilled and experienced practitioner of EFT. I just contacted him to set up another session."
"I just wanted to say thank you. Gene, you are amazing. I just got off the phone and you very intuitive. I have to say I feel sooooo great. My vibrations are up big time. I just I will see the benefits of this session."
One week later: "Hi, I just wanted to let you know that a week after my session with gene I had a new website and started a business. That is what we were working on. I had resistance and Gene got me past it."Gay
