🍋 Why You Should Start Tapping for Your Anxiety

🧘‍♀️ 35 to 35 - Birthday Countdown 🎂- Day 14 ✌️

When I was first diagnosed with PTSD, I didn’t know what that meant for my future but I knew it was the only way I could explain what was presently happening to me. The nightmare I was in might have been over but the mental prison I was in and still deal with to this day - was just beginning. The road to healing seemed invisible and I was looking for multiple ways to alleviate my anxiety that came on very strong with my PTSD.

A friend had previously told me about “tapping” when I was looking for ways to help my then (abusive) partner with his PTSD - he was a veteran. It’s ironic that what I sought out to help him with his struggles that he refused to do, is the self healing I do for myself now.

What's tapping, you ask? It's a gentle technique where you tap on specific acupressure points to ease anxiety and restore balance. 🤲💫

At first I was a skeptic, it’s hard for me to accept these types of solutions because my brain seems to go into overdrive when I try to zen out. This practice isn't just about the physical act of tapping; it's a powerful way to connect mind and body, releasing the emotional weight that anxiety carries. 🌪️✨

Tapping has become my anchor during times of stress. Each tap serves as a reminder that I have control over my emotions, grounding me in the present moment. It's not about erasing the past but reclaiming my power over it.

So, if you've ever felt the weight of anxiety or if, like me, you've been on the rollercoaster of PTSD, consider giving tapping a try. It's not a cure-all, but it's a tool that empowers you to navigate the ups and downs with ease.

I’ve provided a few diagrams of how you can begin tapping and the mindset work you can do around EFT tapping.

Join me in this journey of self-discovery and healing. Let's tap into resilience, embrace the calm within the chaos, and remind ourselves that we are stronger than we think. 🌟🌿 #lemon8diary #lemon8creator #lemon8diarychallenege #efttapping #lemon8diarychallenge #anxietyrecovery #anxietyattack #ptsdrecovery #ptsdawareness #anxietyawareness New York
