How to use this book
First of all, I thank you for taking the time to read this book. I
sincerely hope you will benefit greatly from tapping through these
programs.

This book targets 5 major blocks that stand in the way of success
with anything that you may be trying to achieve.

You can tap on each of these programs in the order they are listed. Or, from the table of
contents, see which program stands out to you. Start from there, and then go one by
one. Skip any program that does not resonate with you.

If you feel the need to tap through any program more than once, by all means do so. The
message of a program gets strengthened by multiple tapping rounds.

Tapping through these programs will neutralize the base fears and blocks. It will also
bring to your attention the specific beliefs or fears that stop you. Once you are done
tapping through these base programs, it should become easier to focus on the problem-
specific issues.

Say for example, you are aiming to lose some weight but are stuck at a certain weight.
Tapping through the program How to Use Emotional Freedom Technique to Get
Unstuck could get things moving. With that change, it may come to your attention that
you were stuck because of hidden resistance to taking the next step. You can take up
that issue next and tap it away.

You can also print out the programs and tap through them at your leisure.

If at any time you need help or clarifications, please feel free to write to me at
sonal@tap-easy.com. I will be happy to help you.

How to Use Emotional Freedom Technique to Get Unstuck
Do you often find yourself wishing how it would be if your life got better? If you earned more
money, if you had more time to yourself, more fulfilling relationships, more fun Then whats
stopping you from getting there? Maybe you learned early on that when things change, even
for the better, they often come with side effects that may not be so palatable.
Such incidents or conditioning can instill fear of change in our minds. So even if
we apparently want to change things for the better, part of us is not really looking forward to
the actual change. And it keeps us where we are.
How about we try Emotional Freedom Technique to tap on this internal resistance thats
working overtime to keep us stuck?

Even though Im stuck and it feels frustrating and disempowering, I wish I could develop the
courage and insight to drive my bus into a happy, thriving future without the debilitating fear
of running into insurmountable challenges.

Even though I desperately need for things to move in a positive direction, but they seem
stuck, even so Im open to learning what else or how differently I can do things in order to
unstuck myself.

Even though part of me is aching for things to change and for my life to become better,
another part of me is uncomfortable about the idea of shaking things up. I wish all parts of
me would team up for my highest good and happiness instead of fighting among themselves.

Tapping Yourself Out of the Success Eludes Me Funk
Maybe you are working to lose weight, searching for your soul mate, managing a difficult job,
trying to get a book published, practicing to learn a new skill, trying to carve a niche for
yourself, or trying to stick to a resolution.
When you started out, you were all worked up and raring to go. But there are often moments
when our spirits fall and it feels like we are getting nowhere with all the work were putting in.
These are dangerous times, since they can influence us to call it quits, even if success is just
round the bend.
The same things that got us all excited and frothing at the leash can start to seem like a
burden if we dont meet success somewhere soon-ish along the way. How about we try EFT
tapping to see if we can pull ourselves out of such despair?

Even though Im trying to do my best, but obviously my best is not good enough, even so Im
open to learning newer ways of doing things that will attract success.

Even though I should have tasted more success by now, what if I could use this
disappointment to whet my appetite for greater success?

Even though a part of me is not comfortable with the idea of success, I wish I could release
this hesitation and forge ahead with confidence and enthusiasm.

EFT Tapping when Sincere Efforts Bring Dismal Results
Are you trying hard to lose weight, make a difficult relationship work, striving for a hard to
come by promotion at work, making ends meet? Or anything else youre putting tons of effort
in, but ending up with unsatisfactory returns?
We often feel the urge to associate ourselves with a goal that shows promise of benefit to us
or others. But as days go by, as we put in more and more effort, our expectations rise too.
Sometimes those expectations arent met at the rate we expect.
At such times we start to question the worthiness of the cause and whether we are simply
wasting our time. This tug-of-war can prevent us from moving forward or backward. How
about we try tapping to see if we can clear the fog surrounding this issue? Focus on any
such matter in your life and tap along!

wish I knew how I could improve my chances of measurable success.

Even though it sucks that all my efforts are just meeting a dead end, I wish things would take
a turn for the better. I wish I knew how to drive my bus to success.

How to Use EFT when Past Failures Hamper Future Success
Remember a time when you tried your hand at something, and failed, miserably? Are you
letting the shadow of your past failures sabotage your present chances of success, even if
unknowingly?
Failures, and the feelings of sadness and inadequacy, can linger quietly under the surface
for years. It could be failure as a child to succeed in school work, or at sports, or as an adult
trying to make their way through the world. How about we try EFT tapping to see if we can
erase these dark writings from our walls, so we can then autograph them with shining
success?
During the tapping, think about one or more failures in your life that you often get reminded
of. Repeat tapping with different failure situations to cover as much ground as possible.
EFT tapping set up
Karate chop
Even though it hurts to even think about my past failures, it is indeed worse to know that my
past failures are preventing me from being successful now, and in the future. I wish I could
reclaim my power and start all over again.

Even though my past failures haunt me, and prevent me from being the best I can be, I wish
I could start over somehow, without the burden of these past failures.

Even though it feels counter intuitive that my future success is not really affected by my past
failed efforts, even so Im opening up to the idea that it might be true after all. That gives me
a fresh start and feels liberating!

Side of the eye of failed efforts everywhere around me.
Under the eye And within me.
Under the nose They preemptively sabotage my efforts
Chin to become better, to contribute better.
Collar Bone What if I could get out
Under the arm from under the shadow of my past failures?

EFT Script to Clear Worry over How Something will Turn out
If we got a penny every time we had a worrisome thought, wed all be billionaires, or richer.
Especially when were waiting to see how something will turn out, worry can scoop over our
thoughts like its no ones business.
Worry is a disease, slowly eating away at our happiness and taking the joy out of our lives.
