It takes some practice, and I think you must believe it works, but the process seems to be working for me. So far, so good.
I bought this without really understanding the jist of tapping in positive qualities. I wanted a manual to guide me in using EFT tapping to deal with negative emotions and memories. Unfortunately, I still rate this book a 3 star because she is very brief in her description of the tapping process, no diagrams, etc.
Indeed, it empowers the reader to effectively treat almost any limitation, pain or insecurity. Laurel Parnell writes beautifully and compassionately in this self-help manual for emotional well-being. Dr. She introduces a new and safe way for anyone to use the powerful healing tool of bilateral stimulation - a tool that, until now, has been restricted to the professional psychotherapist. Tapping In shows readers how to use simple hand movements to calm anxiety, heal fears, improve self-confidence, address sleep problems and much, much more. Parnell introduces a variety of imagery-based strategies that can penetrate deeply into the mind to create profound healing and growth. I will be recommending this book to my own clients frequently.Sarah Chana Radcliffe,Author, Raise Your Kids without Raising Your Voice
This is an incredible resource for everyone - therapists, healers and anyone looking to make their life better. It is a clear, easy to follow resource that helps you find and utilize your own strengths and natural abilities for healing. As a therapist I encourage other therapists and clients to make use of this valuable tool to further their work. As a parent I encourage parents to use this resource to help get through stressful times and to assist your children with their challenges.
And for this change in perspective and experience, Dr. Parnell has in a person's ability to find their own strengths, and that these exist in the first place.
Dr. Parnell details the process of using EMDR's bi-lateral stimulation (the sequential tapping on both sides of the body) to do this "resourcing" work, and then gives a myriad of suggestions on how to apply this to different situations.
Briefly put, "Tapping In" is a wonderful book, an accessible description of how to use the "tapping" part of EMDR to find and strengthen the already existing resources within oneself. You can tell in her writing what absolute confidence Dr.
It's not at all a complex process she's describing, and unlike EMDR, which requires a trained professional to be safe and effective, Resource Tapping seemingly can be used by everyone. I have actually used it with a range of clients, including the actively psychotic, and all of them have benefited.
It's such a simple and yet powerfully transformative experience when people find out that they can adjust their internal states and moods with about the ease that they'd adjust their body if sitting in an uncomfortable position. Parnell's book is a great guide.
