Good afternoon,

At the end of every podcast I ask for you, my listeners, to send me ideas for topics you’d like me to cover. I love the emails I receive and some of the best work that has appeared on TappingQ&A has come from your recommendations and requests.

(Please keep them coming!)

A friend of mine, who is also a practitioner, contacted me this week to ask if I had a podcast that one of her clients could use to work on a poverty consciousness, which she had picked up from her father.

My friend's request was for a podcast that would help release the burdens and beliefs we pick up from others.

My response: "No, I don’t have one, but that is a great idea. I’ll record one right now!"

So that is what I have for you this week.

There are lots of reasons that we pick up emotional beliefs and burdens from and for our loved ones. No matter the reason we picked them up, there is a certain point when we realize we need to let them go (which can be very difficult).

This week I have a tap-along to help you do just that.

In addition to that I am sharing with you a post from a few years back that I think needs to be revisited.

I sometimes get a little cross with people when they talk about the "things they attract into their life". I think it is good to spend time trying to figure out how we have ended up where we have ended up. I think it is important that we take responsibility for our actions.

BUT I also think that many people take too much responsibility for why their life is the way it is and use that as weapon to beat themselves up!

There is a HUGE difference between what we create and what we are responsible for. I know those two things might seem synonymous, but in my mind they are not.

This is what I mean: http://tappingqanda.com/?p=2235

I believe that understanding these two ideas is an essential part of our healing process.

I would love to hear your thoughts (especially if you disagree!).

I hope you have a great weekend,

Gene

EFT For The Burdens Of Others - Sometimes we pick up the emotional beliefs and burdens of our loved ones and they can be difficult to release. Here is a simple tap-along to help let go of these burdens.

Create v. Responsible - Just because something bad happens to us it doesn't mean that we have created or attracted it. What is much more important to what has happened is how we react. This is my reflection on the differences between what we create and what we are responsible for.
