Are you tired of just talking about your problems? Have you been struggling to change your life, to lose weight, or eliminate a painful memory? Energy Tapping is an exciting, breakthrough book in the field of self-help. It is a wonderful guide to the power of our own bodies. The acu-pressure techniques in Energy Tapping will help you to stop sabotaging your life. You can control chronic anger or learn to stop picking the wrong person for a relationship. Each chapter explores a different problem and provides a step-by-step approach with simple diagrams that identify the meridian points to tap. And each treatment can be completed in less than a minute. The techniques in Energy Tapping can help you reach peak performance at work, in sports, or in your personal life. The theory is that an imbalance in your energy system creates chronic problems and self-sabotaging beliefs. Instead of endlessly analyzing your life, you will quickly learn how to free yourself from fear, chronic anger, and food cravings, or how to overcome feelings of depression and trauma.

Imagine if you could think about a problem that you have been struggling with, tap with your fingers at key locations on your face, torso, and hands, and then experience the problem suddenly vanish. All within a matter of a few minutes. The only thing remaining the memory of the problem you used to have. Might that be called "therapy for the new millennium?" In Energy Tapping we have distilled just such an approach: easily applied energy-based treatments for trauma and painful memories, fears and anxieties, low mood and depression, many negative emotions (e.g., anger, rage, shame, and embarrassment), addiction, smoking, overweight, limiting beliefs, sports and performance enhancement, and more. This is a self-improvement book that will be of interest to practically everyone who appreciates the practical. Energy Tapping makes these new and highly effective techniques widely available, not just for the people who happily seek our services. You will find energy tapping to be rapid, painless, thorough, and actually quite enjoyable. One client referred to it as "acupuncture for the soul."
