Hi ,
Welcome to the July Newsletter. I hope this finds you are fit and well. Whilst the sunshine has not been so consistent as recent weeks at least the rain hasn't been either!
Summer Holiday Hell
Summer holidays invoke a certain feeling. Fun, sunshine, lazy days, beaches, no schedule, relaxation, reading a good book etc. Unfortunately for some it also invokes other feelings. Lack of money, kids wanting to be entertained every waking minute, childcare problems, flight delays, inadequate hotel facilities, stress etc.
Of course all of these can be tapped on. As many of you will have children home for the school holiday I have focussed the first script on these issues. The second script is tailored for those summer holiday mishaps - delayed flights, lost luggage and sub-standard accommodation!
First of all rate your feeling about having the kids home for the school holidays on a scale of 0 - 10 (where 10 is maximum negative intensity).
Setup:
Tap on the Karate Chop whilst repeating three times:
- Even though I really want to spend time with the kids, it's just not possible for me to be off for the whole summer holiday and I feel guilty about this
- Even though I want the kids to enjoy themselves, I just don't have the money for them to be entertained every day and I accept myself and my feelings anyway
- Even though I wish the holidays were shorter, it would be so much easier to handle, I accept myself anyway
Eyebrow: I want to spend time with my kids
Side of Eye: I can't take off the whole summer though
Under Eye: It's just not possible for me and they don't understand
Under Nose: I feel guilty for not being there for them the whole summer
Chin: I wish the holidays were shorter
Collarbone: It would be so much easier to sort out childcare
Under Arm: It costs a fortune to entertain them all summer
Top of Head: I feel guilty for not letting them do all the activities they want to do
Eyebrow: I just can't afford to let them do all they want
Side of Eye: They feel hard done by and then I feel guilty
Under Eye: Childcare is so expensive
Under Nose: I wish I could find cheap things for them to do
Chin: The summer holidays last so long
Collarbone: The kids get bored and want to be constantly entertained
Under Arm: Summer holidays are so draining on me
Top of Head: They are so expensive and so long
Eyebrow: I'm open to finding ways to keep the kids entertained
Side of Eye: What if I found cheap activities for them
Under Eye: Maybe I can get some help looking after the kids
Under Nose: Maybe the weather will be good and they can play outside more
Chin: What if they entertained themselves more
Collarbone: Maybe things will work out ok
Under Arm: What if I managed to let this guilt go
Top of Head: I'm sure every parent goes through this
Use your words where appropriate to really tune in to how you feel. Remember to keep tapping until the issue has fully resolved.
The summer holiday hell script addresses all those niggles like delayed flights, lost luggage and sub-standard accommodation. If you address each of your concerns before you go, you can guarantee you'll handle it much more calmly and enjoy the experience a whole lot more....continue reading
Tapping Affirmations
You can increase the effectiveness of affirmations much more if you also use EFT whilst you repeat your affirmation. Always remember to ensure your affirmation is positively stated, not too long and easy to pronounce.
Start tapping at the eyebrow point, repeating your affirmation. Continue tapping at the side of the eye, under eye, under nose, chin, collarbone, under arm and top of head whilst repeating your affirmation. Take a deep breath and repeat. Depending on how many times you usually repeat your affirmations you may want to do several rounds. There is no need to use the karate chop point or setup statements. Enjoy empowering your affirmations with EFT!
Energy Exercise of the Month
Separating Heaven and Earth
This is another quick one - under 2 minutes.
Benefits:
- Eases insomnia
- Immune system is activated
- Shifts energy stuck in your joints
- Releases energy (including energy picked up from others)
- Opens the energy channels
Stand upright and spread your fingers on your thighs. Breathe in deeply through your nose and raise your hands in a circle to your chest, bringing your hands into a prayer position. Exhale through your mouth. Breathing in through your nose again, separate your hands raising one hand to heaven and one hand to the earth. Push through your hands so that they are flat and you feel you are resisting something above and below you. Hold for as long as is comfortable. Exhale through your mouth and return to the prayer position. Repeat on the other side raising and lowering the opposite hand. Repeat a couple of times each side. Now, lower your arms and bend your body at the waist, folding over. Bend the knees and hang there, taking two deep breaths. To come out of the pose slowly uncurl and return to the start position

Quote of the Month
"Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it's always your choice." ~ Wayne Dyer
We often forget that we ALWAYS have a choice. We can react or we can walk away. We can wallow in negativity or we can tap our way out of it. We can think why did this happen to me, or we can look for the lesson. EFT can really help you deal with the negatives, react calmly, find the lessons and make the right choice. All you need to do is a little tapping.
Fitting in EFT
One of our biggest challenges is actually making the time to help ourselves feel better. We all have the ability to do this, it's just sometimes we can't find the time. The beauty of EFT of course, is that it usually works very quickly. I'm going to bring you ways to fit EFT in each month, so you can find the time to feel better.
Tap Now:
That's right tap now, as you read this newsletter! You can use the fingertip points, whilst sitting there in front of your computer. To do this, use your thumb to tap the fingertip points on the same hand. You can either just do one hand at a time or both. I usually find it best to rest my hands in my lap to do this. The more we tap, the more our energy system is tuned and toned. In turn our stress reduces leaving us feeling calm and in control! So remind yourself to tap every day. You can put a post-it note on your computer, bathroom mirror or next to your bed to remind you to tap right now!
