I think gratitude is under-rated. It’s something we hear a lot about, but do we really take time to stop, admire & celebrate life? Whether you are thankful for the small or big, it’s great to get into the habit feeling grateful regularly.
The more you are grateful, the more you will notice & attract things & people & situations to be grateful for. It feels good at the end of the day to recall all the wonderful things in your life. For me it makes me feel humble & glad to be alive.
If you are stuck try tapping on these:
|
‘Even though I have nothing in my life to feel grateful for, I deeply & completely love & accept myself’
‘Even though I’d feel silly being grateful for the little things, I deeply & completely love & accept myself’
‘Even though I am so busy & I simply don’t have time to be thankful, I deeply & completely love & accept myself’

Enjoy EFT!

I was talking to a friend this morning & I wanted to share with you an exercise she practises regularly. She’s aware that to grow in every way she has to expand her comfort zones. This makes sense to a lot of us, but how many of us are practising this? Not enough of us!
Every week my friend picks one area of her life to work on. If she chooses physical fitness, she may add another 500m onto her usual run. If she chooses to work on giving, she may give money to someone she normally doesn’t give to, simply to practise the art of giving (and not only giving to people she sees ‘worthy’).
If she wants to work on expanding her advernurous spirit, she may try something that makes her feel scared. If she wants to work on tolerance, she may count to 1000 instead of 10 when she feels road rage coming on.
In these small ways, every week my friend is actively exercising a muscle that doesn’t get used much by most of us. By doing something every week she is growing richer in every area of her life. The feeling of accomplishment & pride she feels is reason enough.
How about if we all did the same? Each week if we chose one small thing to work on….. in a year this adds up to at least 50 ways we expanded our comfort zones. This is huge!!
When you feel fear in pushing your comfort zone (and you will!) use EFT to reduce your anxiety. Perhaps you generally hide in social situations.
How about if you dined alone at a busy resturant? Perhaps even just the thought terrifies you. Tap your fear down so you’re at a level you can physically go there. If you feel discomfort while you are at the resturant, tap in your mind (this will have the same effect).

Many of us are afraid to go after what we really want. Do you feel limited to what is available in your budget? Yes? Then you are crippling yourself. You do NOT have to settle for second best. Or being confined to what is ‘realistic‘ for you.
Focus on what you really want. Feel it and live it in your mind. Once you do this (and this exercise should feel free & wonderful) this is the first step in attracting it.
Now let it go. Keep doing whatever you’re doing. If you don’t get it, it means there’s something better for you. If you do get it, it will be at a time that’s perfect for you. You don’t need to know when.
It does not serve you being too analytical & trying to figure out how or when this may happen. Enjoy feeling your wants & airily let them go (like a huge kite you release into the sky).
Personally I have acheived many many things that seemed ‘impossible’ and ‘very unlikey’ at the time. Be open & you too will be gifted with your wants provided they are in alignment and for your highest good.
Use EFT to overcome any objections. Tap away those intellectual thoughts. Suspend your doubt & simply try this process.

If you physically tap the top of your head, often you can experience the positive results EFT brings you, without tapping through all the points. I have experienced positive results & many of my clients who are familiar with EFT have also….
When would you use this? Perhaps while you are reading a book, talking to a friend, or watching a movie. Something may come up that you feel like you would like to work on. Simply tap the top of your head.
I was on the train one time, listening to an audio. Something came up I wanted to tap on. I didn’t want to tap the top of my head (I was feeling a bit self-conscious with other passangers around me) so instead I simply imagined I was. The results surprised me.
I got positive results, just the same as if I were physically tapping. I’ve tested out this ‘imaginary tapping‘ in other situations & have found similar positive results. I enourage you to experiment with this.

I think many of us blame others, the world, our government….. I don’t think blaming helps change anything. It just keeps us stuck where we are.
Perhaps the payoff is if we blame something, it takes the heat & attention away from us. What about if we recognised when we are blaming & instead took responsibility for ourselves?
Tap on the following EFT set-up statements:
|
‘Even though I’m too fat & it’s McDonald’s fault, I deeply & completely love & accept myself. I choose to see there is no point in blaming as it doesn’t change anything’
‘Even though it’s not my fault we’re late, it’s ________ fault, I deeply & completely love & accept myself. I choose to take responsibility for my actions insead of blaming others’
‘Even though I think in every situation someone is right & someone is wrong, I deeply & completely love & accept myself. I choose to know there are only different results & any outcome is ok’
‘Even though I want others to be how I want them to be, I deeply & completely love & accept myself. I choose to understand every one has a right to be whomever they wish (even if I don’t like it)’

Most of us shy away from proclaiming love for ourselves. It’s seen as conceited and blowing our own trumpet. How about starting with simply liking yourself….
Treat yourself as you would a friend. Most of us are kinder to others than to ourselves. Be nice to yourself. Look out and after yourself. Be aware when you are beating yourself up & stop it!!
Being aware of your own behaviour towards youself can go a long way. Tap on any justifications your mind may tell you & rid those guilty feelings with EFT.

I suggest you tap throughout this blog post & create your own set-up statements when a ’sore point’ is hit upon!
Jealousy can be seen as putting yourself down. When you feel jealous you’re really comparing yourself to someone else. You make others more important than you. There will always be people you meet who have ‘less’ and ‘more’ than you. Be concerned with yourself & focus more on you.
You cannot control or predict how others act. It is not your responsibility or obligation to feel bad if someone acts in a way that you perceive as being not fair. This is a difficult concept to grasp but once you do, you will appreciate the power & freedom it brings.
For example, your wife may one day have an affair. This decision & her actions have nothing to do with you – it is between your wife & the ‘other man’. If you think it is a reflection on you then you can get into a vicious cycle where you may compare yourself to the ‘other man’ and try to work out why.
Jealousy arises from a lack of confidence in yourself. Basing your happiness upon what others feel, say & do is fickle. Yet many of us do.
Enjoy EFT!
