  • Masks are coming off, now what? #329

    Masks are coming off and we’re adapting to a new stage of the pandemic. This tapping audio will help manage the stress.

    You’ve done a good job, it’s okay to feel unsettled, and it will get easier.

  • I dislike this arrogant fool #328

    Personality models like the Enneagram, Human Design, and Personality Typing can help us understand our paths of development

    Blame can be masking an unmet need and a feeling of powerlessness.

    Stages of Self-Differentiation
    • I’m like everyone else, and that’s okay.
    • I’m like everyone else, and that’s not okay.
    • I’m not like everyone else, and that’s not okay.
    • I’m not like everyone else, and that is okay.
    • Making energetic room for people who are on the opposite side of the aisle 

      “Without a context bigger than ourselves, we all—whether we identify as right, left or none of the above—suffer from an “I am right, you are wrong” stance that creates strife and reduces all our differences to reptilian-brain consciousness of “I win and you lose.””

      ~ Matthew Fox, October 13 daily meditation

      What we listen to affects our brains and nervous systems.

      When we tap, wisdom and compassion emerge.

      Being gentle when we tap
      • Come in gentle from the edges
      • Imagine imagine thinking about it
      • Then imagine thinking about it
      • Then think about it one step at a time
      • More support for you

        If you want some personal attention working through any of what I’ve talked about, I have room for a few more one on one clients.  Reach out to me here.

      • Talking and tapping about tapping #326
        Mary’s water phobia and the invention of TFT

        The creation story of TFT (thought field therapy) – the precursor to tapping also known as Emotional Freedom Techniques.

        It’s okay to stay on one point if that brings you relief.

        What to say on the setup point

        The affirmative part of the setup statement needs to be something you believe in. The set-up statement – varying the language on the side of the hand points.

        • I deeply and completely accept myself
        • I deeply and completely accept myself anyways.
        • I am open to the idea of accepting myself
        • I just want to feel better
        • I am open to trusting myself
        • Being ourselves
          • Being around people wired the way we are can be very relaxing.
          • 7:00 tapping
            • How comfortable do you feel with who you are and your place in the world?
            • The way you are wired
              • MBTI
              • Enneagram type
              • Human Design
              • Are you okay with who you are?

                How receptive is the world to you?

                When it feels bad, we can blame ourselves, blame the other people, or perhaps there’s a third choice.

                11:00 tapping
                • Blaming ourselves for being ourselves
                • Run your human design chart at jovian

                    • Blurred lines #325

                      First of all, my apologies to Marvin Gaye, Pharrell Williams, rapper T.I., and Alan Thicke for mixing up names and not remembering the name of the artists and the original inspiration behind the song Blurred Lines and for calling it a pop song.  Yikes!  Yes, I suppose I should also name Robin Thicke as part of the production despite the controversy.

                      And now onto the podcast. I think this episode is a good one for all of us during this pandemic and political cycle in the U.S.  Steven Covey’s idea of the circle of influence and circle of concern is both simple yet profound in its impact.

                      Have a listen – only 10 minutes long.

                      If you have a vision for yourself, your family, the world and it doesn’t feel like it uplifts you, it’s time to bring your vision closer to your circle of influence.

                      • “There’s a lot going on” #324

                        A relaxing talk and tap to get your week started ….

                        How are you bright do you feel today, this week, this month?  

                        There’s a lot going on

                        When our minds can’t comprehend it, what do we do? We turn to the heartspace.

                        I can’t get away from the pandemic

                        Science is not a dirty word

                        When a system treats part of itself unfairly, we all feel uneasy.
