SEE FULL
SAMPLE OF THIS EXERCISE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE

————————————————————————–

1.
Think


about
a


situation


in
your


life


that
you
would like to be different today.

(Example:
your weight loss or fat loss or body image or food issues or exercise)

2.
Acknowledge
the
facts.


 Ask


yourself:


 What are the top 10 thoughts I have most frequently about this subject? List
them as they come to your mind, no particular order
–
no judgment,
no
explanations.

Sample Thoughts –

• I eat too much

• If I eat that and it doesn’t
  fix my problems, what do I do now?

• I don’t have control over that

• I can’t eat this way for ever

• This situation is probably not
  going to change

3.


Identify
your


feelings
for each statement.


 Ask


yourself:


What
feeling
does
each one of the statements evoke?
(Example:
depression, sadness, feeling

alone,
disappointed, frustrated,
happy, glad, excited, adventurous, and joyful or loving)

4.
Let’s get a really clear picture, let yourself hear all of these thoughts, sit


with
those
feelings
and


allow
them

to
wash


over
you.


Just


allow
yourself


to
see, hear,
feel,
taste or smell

what those thoughts mean to you.

5.
Start tapping, don’t say a word just experience
those
feelings
and continue tapping

until


they


start


to
fade
a little. Once that starts to happen, ask yourself the following questions:

• 
  I choose to have these feelings because ……
• 
  I don’t deserve this problem because ……
• 
  I deserve this problem because …..
• 
  How long have I been dealing with this issue?
• 
  Who else in my family has/had these issues?
• 
  What is my theory about why I haven’t gotten over it yet?  How am I
  responsible for that?
• 
  What new problems or issues will be created by letting go or being without
  these issues?
• 
  What are the benefits of keeping this problem or issue?
• 
  Will I feel safe without this problem?
• 
  Who might be upset if I don’t have this problem anymore?
• 
  Who or what am I controlling by keeping this problem or issue?

6.
Now use
the whole tapping protocol to


resolve


any


unresolved

feelings
or


limiting
beliefs.
While tapping the Karate Chop point repeat the following phrases:

• Even
  though I still may feel on some level that I can’t
  change
  this situation,
  I deeply and completely
  
  accept
  
  
  myself.

• Even
  though I still may feel on some level that I don’t have
  
  
  control
  
  over
  this situation,
  I deeply love
  and accept
  myself.

• Even
  though I still may feel on some level that I feel
  
  
  disappointed,
  I choose to accept
  
  
  what
  is.

• Even
  though I still may feel on some level that this is not
  
  what
  I
  
  wanted,
  I choose to
  
  
  release these feelings
  now.

• Even
  though I still may feel on some level that I feel
  frustrated
  and this situation
  
  
  may
  never
  change,
  
  I choose
  to release these feelings
  now.

•  Even
  though I still may feel on some level that I can’t
  have
  what
  I
  
  want,
  I choose to create my
  
  own
  
  
  peace.

• Even
  though I still may feel on some level that this situation
  is hard to accept, I choose
  to let it go.

Now tap the rest of the points with the

negative phrase
that represents the overall feeling for the problem or issue you have left.

Sample

shortened
phrases you say when you tap 

• 
  This
  frustration

• 
  This
  feeling

• This
  picture

• This
  sound

• This
  …….

NOW TAP …… I completely and deeply accept
myself the way I am!

All
the actions we take in our lives are either to move us in the direction of
feeling good or feeling better than we did before we started.  Also, we create
circumstances and opportunities in our lives based upon how we feel about what
we think about because our actions are determined by how we feel.

We can
sum those up into 2 different actions. 

·       
“Move away from”
- Which means we will move away from something we don’t want and that moves us
in the opposite direction we were headed by default. Or what we call living
by default.  A typical statement would be (I don’t want that, I don’t know
what want; I just know, I don’t want that!)

·       
“Move
Towards”
-
Which means we are choosing to move in the direction of what we want. Or what we
call living on purpose.  A typical statement would be (I want that!)

80% of
the time this person will move away from exercising. Out of the 10 most common
thoughts this person has about exercising, 8 result in actions that are moving
away from exercising and only 2 are moving towards.

**They
will exercise every now and again and sometimes several days in a row but over
the long haul or approximately 80% of the time they won’t!
So START TAPPING
