Tap Your Stress Away

A few months ago, I had a particularly frustrating day.

My entire family had woken up late while I was at the gym so I came home to a cluster fuck before school. I'm sure we can all agree this is NEVER a good way to start a day.

I had a meeting out of my house (very rare for this coach) and the traffic on the way home was INSANE. So insane that I was going to miss my upcoming zoom. I hate being late and rescheduling last minute. Valuing other people's time is important to me - so I get really cranky when my poor planning leaves me inconveniencing others.

I sat on the highway, going at snail's pace, tearing through my glove compartment and my center console for the spare package of almonds that I was sure had to be somewhere for emergencies just like these. My almonds were nowhere to be found.

Be glad you weren't in my car with me. It wasn't a pretty scene. I was stupidly stressed with no where to go and the inability to do something I discuss with my clients all the time: complete the stress cycle.

We all find different ways to complete the stress cycle - most of them involve exercise of some sort…moving the energy through your body, giving your nervous system an outlet. My personal favorite choices are boxing (hitting something feels GREAT), yoga, and having a killer dance party.

Failing to complete the stress cycle is a one way ticket to burnout.

But what if you don't have time for a hard core workout? What if your office has windows and a dance party isn't an option? What if you're stuck in a car with no almonds and you're running late??????

Enter my friend, Jacqui Acree, EFT Tapping Coaching.

The call that I had to reschedule was actually a tapping trial with Jacqui. By some act of G-d, she had an opening later that afternoon and we got on a zoom. If you've been paying any attention, you know I arrived to that zoom stressed. But after 30 minutes with Jacqui, my stress was way down and I was HOOKED.

Tapping is super easy to integrate into your life and you can do it anywhere (even stuck in traffic in the middle of a highway) - a GREAT option for completing that stress cycle and regulating your nervous system.

It's a perfect way to start your day and Jacqui makes it even easier with her 10 minute guided tapping session to start the day calm, clear and grounded. You'll go from stressed and overwhelmed to more calm, confident and creative. You'll have access to more perspective. And you'll get intentional about how to start your day.

If you want to be more well prepared than I was next time you're running late and stuck in traffic (or you're in need of a good dance party but your walls are glass) grab your free 10 minute guided session with Jacqui now!
