Meridian Tapping for Weight Loss
Okay, this wasn't actually on my schedule for the acupressure study, so this will be out of order of my other notes. Meridian Tapping webinar notes here:
Identify what's blocking you.
Set-up Phrase - make it an affirmation that you can live with. (i.e., even though I have problems saying no and people cross my boundaries all the time, I choose to deeply and completely love, honor and accept myself.)
How do you feel about the topic - 1-10.
Say affirmation 3 times while tapping at side of hand.
Next tapping in order at inside of eyebrow, outside of eye, under the eye, under the nose, collar bones, under arms, top of head.
Tap as you talk through the negatives, in the pattern, 3 taps each spot.
How do you feel about the topic? 1-10.
Slowly transition into positives, things you can learn.
Rewiring your brain
NLP - collapse anchors.
Variations - EMDR, tapping fingers. Affirmations with movement. - Breaks the pattern
Breath in and out between each round.
Generic affirmation - even though I'm completely stressed (fill in what you're stressed about), I choose to deeply and completely love, honor and accept myself./ end with "I choose to be calm and relaxed. I choose to let go. I choose to be calm and relaxed."
Okay, interesting video and technique. I think Jon Gabriel's concept that any sort of affirmation with movement is just as valid - the tapping is not really specific enough to necessarily activate meridians. Not sure.
I already know that positive affirmations work - since I grew a garden last year.
Exercises: sitting - grinder, running, L punch, uppercut. 20 seconds, each with 10 second rest - 80 seconds total. Do it twice.
Visualize - connect pleasure and movement (i.e. unzip fat coat)
4 minutes warm-up, 4 minutes upper body strength, 4 minutes walking/biking, 4 minutes cool down.
