Tapping Script for Releasing Stress and Overwhelm
Feelings of stress and overwhelm tend to accumulate in the body-mind, making already stressful circumstances feel even worse. When we tap to release that pent-up stress, it can dramatically lighten our inner load, which then, as if by magic, actually makes our outer load feel lighter too.
I've worked with people who were carrying around the imprints of past stress for years, and once those were tapped away, they felt such a profound sense of relief, relaxation, and lightness that their current set of responsibilities felt much more manageable.
These tapping statements will help free you from current stress, and you can also modify them to release the emotional charge from times in your past when you felt very stressed and overwhelmed. My guess is that you'll be amazed by how much lighter you feel in a very short amount of time.
HOW TO USE THIS SCRIPT
As with all of my tapping scripts, these statements can be used as is, or modified in any way that makes them resonate more fully with your experience. Some of them will fit for you, and some will not. Just use the ones that fit your experience and have an emotional charge.
You may notice that when you start tapping on these statements, thoughts and feelings will arise that you can then turn into new tapping statements, which will then give rise to still more thoughts and feelings, which you can use to create additional tapping statements, and so on.
I call this following the thread, and it’s a very efficient way to heal and release a lot of painful feelings in a short amount of time.
Before you start tapping on a statement, give it a number between 0 and 10 which indicates the level of fear, stress, or concern that the statement brings up for you. Then, do your best to tap on the statement until it is a 0, which means all of the emotional charge is gone.
There is a lot of material here! I recommend spending anywhere from 20 to 60 minutes on this, but not more than that. That means you’ll only have time to tap out a small number of the statements on this script in one session.
If you’re thorough, and tap things down to 0, you’ll likely feel MUCH better after tapping out just a few of them. You can attend to other ones at another time.
PLEASE NOTE
When doing EFT tapping on your own, if you aren't able to completely heal the issue you're working on, so that when you think about it, it no longer causes any stress, emotional pain, anger, or fear, I recommend working with a professional EFT practitioner.
