Affirmation Based EFT Tapping

Are you one to use affirmations?⁠

I ask because I know a lot of folks who have been working with affirmations for many years, and they are left feeling a bit disappointed.⁠

Well I want to tell you about a little affirmation EFT trick. The thing is, for most people, what they are really affirming is the "Tail-ender" of the affirmation. What comes on the tail-end of the affirmation. ⁠

If your affirmation is "I Love my Happy & Healthy body" what you are really affirming is whatever comes after that statement.⁠ The big BUT on the end. 

For example; "I Love my Happy & Healthy body!".... but I have gained 5 lbs without the gym being open, and my hair is kind of a mess today, and my knee hurts, gosh why am I always having injuries, I sure wish I looked liked I did 3 summers ago..... and so on.⁠

An affirmation works powerfully when we really believe it, so what can we do with the pesky tail-enders? We can tap them away using EFT.⁠

So if you have a really important affirmation you would really like to stick, try this exercise:⁠

  • Grab a notebook and open it to a fresh page⁠.
  • Draw a line down the middle of the page⁠

  • On the left side write your beautiful affirmation!⁠

  • Take a moment to check in and look at what might be there that is keeping you from fully deeply knowing this affirmation is true⁠. Write it all down on the page in the other column. Just go for it, now is not the time to be polite/politically correct/positive, just let it flow. With EFT tapping, we are working with the subconscious mind, so no need to be logical here. 

  • This is your EFT tapping script! For example: Even though I have gained 5 pounds since the gym has been closed, I still deeply love and completely accept myself.⁠ Just read what you wrote down on the page out loud as you tap through the points.
