Free Flowing Energy
Hi ,
Welcome to the January Newsletter. I wish you a very happy, healthy new year. I hope that you enjoyed your Christmas and didn't get too stressed! If you have made some New Year's Resolutions and they have already been broken, then take a look at my article - New Year's Resolutions vs Specific Goals. I hope you enjoy this month's newsletter.
Shift The Christmas Spread!
I know, you said you wouldn't do it this year. But it is very difficult not to over-indulge at Christmas. When you visit family especially they always seem to insist you eat and drink a lot! Even if you don't necessarily eat more, what you do eat tends to be richer and more calorie laden! You try your best and yet you somehow manage to put on at least a few pounds. Well now that the new year is here, it's time to shift those extra Christmas pounds.
So take some time out, sit down for a few minutes and do some tapping. Here is a tapping script that can help you. Write down your score on a scale of 0 - 10 first (where 10 is maximum guilt/disappointment etc).
Setup:
Tap on the Karate Chop whilst repeating three times:
- Even though I feel so guilty for putting on weight at Christmas again, I'm willing to accept myself anyway
- Even though I feel disappointed with myself because I over-indulged again, I'm willing to forgive myself
- Even though I feel sad that I've put this weight on, when I was doing so well, I love and accept myself anyway
Eyebrow: Why did I have to over-indulge?
Side of Eye: I'm so disappointed with myself
Under Eye: I feel so guilty that I ate too much
Under Nose: Why do I put weight on so easily
Chin: I feel sad now when I look in the mirror
Collarbone: Getting on the scales makes me mad with myself
Under Arm: I should have had more self-control
Top of Head: I should have tried harder to say no
Eyebrow: But it's so difficult with all the parties
Side of Eye: Everyone else is eating and drinking
Under Eye: I feel so bad when I try to not do the same
Under Nose: I feel pressured to eat as much as everyone else
Chin: It seems rude to not eat at a party
Collarbone: When they've gone to all that trouble
Under Arm: I hate myself for eating too much
Top of Head: I find it so hard to stop eating once I start
Eyebrow: I'm open to thinking about this differently
Side of Eye: What if I could give myself a break
Under Eye: Maybe I did my best under the circumstances
Under Nose: Christmas is a tempting time
Chin: What if I can shift these extra Christmas pounds
Collarbone: Maybe I can lose this extra weight easily
Under Arm: What if I enjoyed losing this Christmas weight
Top of Head: I'm open to enjoying myself as I shift these Christmas pounds
Use your words where appropriate to really tune in to how you feel. Keep tapping until you no longer feel any guilt, disappointment or sadness. If you feel a craving for a specific food then tap along with my video. If you would like some help losing weight with EFT then please do get in touch.
Energy Exercise of the Month
Cross Crawl
This exercise helps balance the energies in your brain. It is very simple and just involves marching on the spot. It balances the left and right hemispheres of your brain, helps you think more clearly and improves your coordination. Perfect to do if you feel exhausted, lethargic or have been carrying a heavy bag or a child.
Before you start, tap your K27 points (on your collarbone) to ensure your energies are traveling in their natural direction.
This is another quick one - 1 minute.
- Raise your right arm and your left leg at the same time
- As you bring them down, raise your left arm and right leg at the same time
- Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth
- Repeat this marching, exaggerating the movements so you cross over your mid line to the opposite side of your body
- Repeat for about a minute

Quote of the Month
"You won't realize the distance you've walked until you take a look around and realize how far you've been."
January is a good time to reflect on the year that has just passed. What goals did you achieve? Where did you excel? If you find yourself focusing on what you didn't achieve and any disappointments then do some EFT to clear that. Keep tapping until you have fully resolved these feelings. Then focus on all the things you did achieve. Some of these things may be subtle. Maybe you got less stressed and triggered by your family. Maybe you spent more time in nature and got more fresh air. Maybe you felt more inner peace. Spend some time appreciating all of those things, even if they seem quite small compared to any goals you set. Do some positive tapping on these things and congratulate yourself for what you did achieve.
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 While You Chat:
Do you ever feel drained when chatting to certain people? Maybe it's a family member, one of your colleagues or your neighbour. Some people seem to always see the glass as half empty, moan and complain. They might even make you feel guilty for not helping them more. Well the next time you have a chat with them do some discreet finger tapping and notice the difference in your energy. Let me know how you get on!
