 I hope that you will sign up for our wonderful series of free teleclasses starting Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 8 PM Central Time.  Go to www.ProjectGivingHope.com and sign up.  You will be sent an e-mail with all of the instructions for calling in to the workshops.

The focus of this series is about cancer patients, caregivers and anyone impacted by cancer.  So, everyone is welcome.  Six worldwide tapping experts (including me) will be offering informative workshops every Thursday and Tuesday until the end of September (for a total of 13 teleclasses).

This week, I will be co-leading the first Pre-Class to introduce everyone to our series and to tapping.  Then, on Tuesday, August 24, 2010, I will be the keynote speaker for our first official workshop.  I will be talking about my own personal experience as a survivor of breast cancer 16 years ago.  I will point out the many ways that tapping would have been a great healing resource for me (if I knew about it 16 years ago).

Every teleclass will be recorded, so you will be able to listen in to any class that you might miss.  If you have any questions about our series, or you would like to set up a live, telephone or SKYPE session with me, please call: (773) 880-5492 or e-mail me at: kiya@eft-tap.com.  

Last week I tapped with a volunteer on an EFT Radio show and the host told me that she got the best response ever to the show.

I talked about my technique called “Revenge Tapping” that allows a person to safely vent their anger towards a person and move in the direction of letting it go.

People commented that they “fell on the floor laughing.”  Please listen in.  I’d love to know what you think.

I was so delighted recently when a friend and colleague, Christine Kolenda told me about a technique she uses with her coaching clients that involves bottles of water. I am one of those practitioners that insists that my tapping clients drink plenty of water before, during and after each session. It is my experience that people do tend to get dehydrated when they tap.

My friend Christine was inspired by the illustrated book, Messages from Water by Dr. Masura Emoto. Dr. Emoto attached positive words and prayers to small water sample containers and then showed photos of their beautiful snow flake-like water crystals under a microscope. Samples of water with negative words produced distorted, misshapen crystals.

Here is a quotation I found on-line about the book:

From Dr. Masaru Emoto’s work we are provided with factual evidence, that human vibrational energy, thoughts, words, ideas and music, affect the molecular structure of water, the very same water that comprises over seventy percent of a mature human body and covers the same amount of our planet. Water is the very source of all life on this planet, the quality and integrity are vitally important to all forms of life.

Christine has her clients put a “post-it note” on a bottle of water with a word or phrase that represents their positive thought for the day. So, while drinking water and tapping and going about the business of your day, you are drinking in that positive thought.

Since we tend to drink more than one bottle of water a day, you can transfer the same note from bottle to bottle, or put a different sentiment on each bottle. My suggestion is to tap on the word when you first start drinking the water.

If my word for the day is “Prosperity,” I might tap:

EYEBROW: I choose to drink in ‘prosperity’ today.

SIDE OF EYE: I choose to think of prosperity every time I drink my water.

UNDER EYE: I choose to have a prosperous day.

UNDER NOSE: I choose to notice prosperity all day.

CHIN: I choose to celebrate prosperity all day.

COLLAR BONE: I choose to create prosperity in all my interactions today.

UNDER ARM: I choose to project prosperity all day.

RIBCAGE: I choose to enoy prosperity all day.

WRISTS: I choose to believe I am prosperous today.

TOP OF HEAD: I choose to engage in prosperous thoughts today.

What a great way to start my day. Since the name of my practice is “T.A.P.” for “Transcending All Problems,” I encourage everyone to drink in T.A.P. Water with encouraging words this week. Let me know how it works for you.

I will be interviewed on an EFT radio show with Alina Frank on Wednesday, May 5, 2010 talking about “Revenge Tapping,” my technique for venting anger without hurting anyone. You’ll enjoy it! Be sure to listen in or get the recording by following the link below:

April is the Cruelest Month?

I never understood “The Waste Land” poem by T.S. Eliot, but that first line always haunted me.  Some tongue-in-cheek writers claim that it is the “cruelest” month because tax day comes in the middle of it.  Maybe it has something to do with the strange fluctuations in the weather…especially in the Midwest.

Whatever Eliot was thinking, I have found a new significance for the month of April.  I just discovered that it is “National Stress Awareness” month, and that April 16^th is “National Stress Awareness” day.

Since a great deal of my tapping work is about relieving stress, April seems like the “coolest month.”  I found out this rather obscure piece of information on a relatively new search engine that I love:  it’s called Leapfish and I encourage you to check it out.  Go to www.leapfish.com.  What I love about this search engine is that it saves you a lot of time because when you search for a word, it shows you every other major search engine results plus Facebook, Twitter and You-Tube.

I am so convinced that people are going to love this easy and very efficient search engine, that I actually “bought” the word “stress” from them.  So, if you search for the word “stress” on LeapFish, my little ad shows up at the top of the page.  It says:  “Got stress?” and leads you to my website.

I think the best way to celebrate “National Stress Awareness” month is to tap.  The next time you feel stressed out (and who doesn’t these days?), stop and tap for a few moments.  Don’t worry about coming up with specific phrases, or figuring out how intense your stress might be, just tap.  If you are in a public place and people might look at you strangely if you start tapping under your arms and on the top of your head, just tap all your fingertips together.

In my next blog post, I’ll talk about some of the physical manifestations of stress, and how tapping can help.

If you would like to learn more about tapping and getting quick and lasting relief from stress, please contact me at: (773) 880-5492, or kiya@eft-tap.com.

 Blessings,

 Kiya

I know it is too late to hear me live because I’m going to be on in just a few minutes, but I know it will be possible to listen to the recording later.  Then I’ll see if I can send it to my great “Web Guy” who will hopefully put it right on my website.

This just came up suddenly or I would have given you a lot more notice!  Here is the notice from my friend Cathryn who is hosting the show:

TONIGHT!!!  5 PM - On BlogTalkRadio – Take A Soul Step With Me!  Join author and host, Cathryn Taylor, for a “live conversation” with my friend and colleague, Kiya Immergluck an EFT practitioner out of Chicago . 

“I just spent the week end with Kiya and one of the things she talked about was a new twist to EFT which she has coined, “Revenge Tapping!”   This is what Kiya had to say!’ 

“I went to hear a very wise woman speak recently, and she answered someone’s question in a very unusual way. A woman I’ll call “Jane” asked: “How can I get over the resentment I feel about being stuck taking care of my abusive mother now that she’s old and there are no other relatives?  I was sure the wise woman was going to speak about forgiveness, or the possibility of learning valuable lessons, or the “gift” of having time to heal a toxic relationship. But the message was very clear and very controversial. She said: “Entertain revenge fantasies!”

Kiya has added her own spin to it with EFT Sequences!  The concept is brilliant! 

Tune in at 5 PM to hear all about it. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/healthandharmonynetwork

Avatar Fan

I have been reading a lot lately about “going beyond your comfort zone” and pushing the limits of your experience.  I did that twice in the last 2 weeks.  Ordinarily, I don’t like movies that have any kind of violence, especially “war movies,” I have very little interest in the fancy camera and graphic tricks that kids love, and except for “Shrek,”  I don’t like “cartoon” movies.  I don’t even like the arrogant “king of the world” guy who directed “Titanic,” James Cameron.

But twice in the last 2 weeks, I went and experienced “Avatar” in 3-D and I absolutely loved it!  Part of me was a little nervous when I went to an “Omnimax” theater.  I was afraid that some giant monster was going to jump out at me in 3-D, “Surround Sound” and a 360 degree screen and I would jump out of my skin!

I was very pleasantly surprised.  Because of truly amazing technology, the world of “Pandora,” a planet in some distant solar system was filled with life-like, magnificent creatures and plant life.

There was some violence, but nothing excessively gorey.  I thought the story was wonderful, and amazingly creative and I was totally mesmerized for almost 3 hours!  (I have the kind of learning disabilities that sometime make it difficult for me to stay focused for that long of a time).  I saw it twice and loved it twice.

What does this have to do with tapping?  Not much, really, except that I did a little tapping to get past my reluctance to see this film and I’m very glad I did.  Is there something you’ve been putting off doing because you ‘can’t face it’ or you’re a little scared, or nervous?  Try tapping.  You might be very glad that you did!
