Emotional Freedom Techniques, EFT tapping is a fantastic energy technique. Below are some ideas to use EFT tapping to help you feel in control.
Hi, I’m Coach Wendy. I’m a certified EFT Master Practitioner. I love EFT because it’s a technique that you can use yourself whenever you need it.
If you’re new to EFT, here’s my free EFT GUIDE right here on the blog. It’s packed with tips for making the most of this easy technique.
The reality is that we can’t control everything
The reality is that there are some things we can control and some things we can’t. That’s perfectly normal.
This EFT script will help you to let go of the need to control things that are out of your control.
Start tapping the side of your hand just below the little finger. Either side is fine. As you tap, state why you’re tapping. I’m tapping today to let go of the need to control everything.
Now, tap through the EFT points saying your reminder phrases.
- Top of the head: I focus on what I can control
- Forehead: I can control how I respond to the things that are out of my control
- Eyebrow: I accept that I cannot control everything and that it’s okay
- Side of the eye: I am calm and in control of my behaviour and actions
- Under the eye: I take control of my thoughts so that they support me
- Under the nose: I am not in control of other people and their behaviour
- Under the mouth: I choose to focus on the things I can control
- Collarbone: I’m calm and in control of my thoughts, behaviour and actions
- Side of the hand: I have a clear mind and stay in control
This script can be repeated as many times as you want. Each time take a minute to see how you feel and if any thoughts come up. Write these down and if you want to, you can tap on these thoughts too.
EFT Tap and Talk
I love using tap and talk. There’s no script. You’ve been attracted to this blog post for a reason. I assume it’s because you don’t feel in control sometimes or maybe a lot of the time.
Imagine that I’m there with you and you feel able to tell me exactly how you’re feeling and what you’re thinking – In your own words.
Now tap and talk. Say what you’re thinking and feeling as you move through the tapping points. Keep going until you’ve said everything you wan to say.
Again, note down anything that comes to mind as you tap. You can work on this later or another time.
I find this an incredibly powerful way to use EFT because you’re working with your own thoughts and saying things in your own words. This will shift the energy where it’s needed much more effectively in my experience.
In the moment – Feeling out of control
Do your set-up. Tapping the side of the hand say “I’m tapping to release this feeling”
Take a deep breath in and slowly release. Repeat three times.
Now, you;re going to move through the tapping points and alternate between saying This feeling and Release.
- Top of the head: This feeling
- Forehead: Release
- Eyebrow: This feeling
- Side of the eye: Release
- Under the eye: This feeling
- Under the mouth: Release
- Under the nose: This feeling
- Collarbone: Release
- Side of the eye: This feeling
If you’re out in public, you can tap the side of your hand.
Another great EFT affirmation to tap on is Calm and Relaxed – You can read this blog post for more guidance EFT and Affirmation Combo – I’m Calm and Relaxed
Positive EFT
Start tapping, you can go straight to thee top of the head and continue from there. In your own words say how you want to feel. Be as specific as you can. Say it in present tense. You can focus on just one area where you want to feel more in control or you can work through different areas as you want.
Example
When I am leading meetings at work, I feel in control at all times. I welcome responses from others even if people don’t agree with me. I am able to keep control of myself and the situation in a calm and positive manner.
