Tracking Down The Right Memory With Three Questions

A central tenet of EFT and other tapping modalities is that most of our emotional problems have a history. We learn unhelpful feelings and limiting beliefs in situations that are then embedded in our memory, and play out in our current lives, long after the original experience is over. One of a tapping practitioner’s jobs is finding and neutralising the memories of where problems start, thus neutralising the unhelpful feelings that spring from that experience. In this episode I present a simple, reliable three question approach to finding the right memory to tap on. The Next Episode Episode #7, "Imagine Your Enemy" will drop on 13th May 2026.

Ask Your Body Not Your Mind

In this episode, I explain the use of a simple statement to help your client access information that is not easily available to their conscious minds. This can be useful for clients who are stuck in their thinking minds, or reluctant to connect with their felt experience. Heads-up Episode #6, "Tracking down the right memory with three questions" will drop on 22nd April 2026.

Tapping Into Hidden Emotions

This technique is for experienced practitioners only. If you are a tapping practitioner, you know that when you are tapping, you are working with feelings. Tapping is a very effective way of moderating stressful and distressing feelings so that we, and our clients,  can become more relaxed and comfortable. All you need is the ability to tap and to tune into the feelings you want to soothe. This sounds easy in principle, but what if the feelings you want to soothe don’t want to be felt?

The Safety Ladder

Our clients come to us for help with issues of different levels of importance and intensity. For some of our clients, because of their life experiences, many of these issues could be very intense. You might start collecting a list of issues to work with and rate them in order of importance to the client, after all you want to be able to help them on what is important to them. Understandably, some clients can be determined to get the worst thing resolved as quickly as possible. However, in our enthusiasm to help, we may be tempted to go after the ‘high value’ targets to get the best and quickest results for our client, but there may be problems with this approach. The 'Safety Ladder' is a way to work with vulnerable clients to help them work with difficult issues. Heads-up Episode #4, "Tapping Into Hidden Emotions" will drop on 25th March 2026.
