Why Does Tapping Work?
•Uses the electro-magnetic energy of the small palpable acu-points that are closest to the surface of the skin.
• Tapping points are connections between the positive and negative (yin-yang) energy flowing through the body (think of a battery with it’s two polarities).
• Tapping to release a block or constriction in the energy flow supports body functions and releases emotional stress.
WomenThatHeal.com • TapIntoHeaven.com • TapAwayPain.com • © Copyright Gwenn Bonnell All Rights Reserved
• Functional MRI shows stimulating acupuncture points changes how the brain processes the stress-stimuli response.
• Balances energy flow while focusing on what would normally cause a stress response.
• Next time the same/similar stress trigger appears, brain reacts with a calming response rather than fight-or-flight
• Stress trigger is no longer a stress trigger!
