EFT to create Positivity, by Jim Montrose, Ayurvedic Specialist
If we are in stress we can’t heal or stay focused.

EFT to Create Positive Emotions, June 2023
Turn around negative emotions and create positivity.
Emotional Freedom Technique, Tapping, gives you a practical tool to turn negative emotions into more positive emotions and positive emotions into more loving, joyful and blissful emotions. The negativity creates stress in our life that reduces our cognitive capacity, lowers immunity, impairs healing, and keeps us from relaxing.
Tapping has two formulations to increase our positive emotional state: a positive tapping and a negative tapping protocol.
The positive tapping protocol is used when we feel good and above the neutral state of boredom (see the tone scale chart below, state 8) and we wish to increase our state towards joy and bliss.
When we are in a negative low emotional tone (state 8 and above) we use the negative formulation to start the reversal and climb to positive emotions.

Whenever you are feeling less than good, if you will stop and say, Nothing is more important than that I feel good—I want to find a reason now to feel good, you’ll find an improved thought. Anytime you feel negative emotion, you are in the mode of resisting something that you want, and that resistance takes its toll on you. It takes its toll on your physical body, and it takes its toll on the amount of wonderful things that you are allowing to come into your experience. -Abraham Move up to the best feeling emotion you can reach each and every day!

Step 1 Locate your current state on Figure 1 below. Read each statement and drop to the heart and test the statement with how you feel. Your intuition, with practice, will clue you in to the state you are in. To do this you must move beyond the mind to the intuition. Practice developing your intuition often and it will start to become available.
If you can’t locate it or aren’t sure look to the sensations in your body are any parts or organs painful, tight or feeling congested (use the organ – emotion correlations in the six healing sounds) to get a baseline. Still can’t get it proceed with this feeling (the one in your body that you haven’t identified yet (it may come to you later).
Step 2 rate this state of emotion or feeling, from 0 (lowest intensity of the feeling) to 10 (highest intensity of the feeling).
Step 3 Tap it out for the first round using either the positive formulation if you are feeling really good, use the negative formulation if you are sort of neutral or have an emotion active in your experience today.

Under bottom lip (UL)- I choose in this moment to intend to have a really good day.
Collar bone point (CB) – I feel really good.
Under Arm (UA) – I choose to really feel good because I know the better I feel the better day I
Will have.

Even though I have this feeling (_____), I complete love, accept myself as is and forgive myself.
Even though I feel (______), I love, accept, honor and love myself completely.
Tap the points (start with owning and feeling your negative emotions, emotions when named and felt are released, then move to positive feelings, thoughts and emotions – until you feel better):
Between Eyes (BE) – This feeling
Side of Eye (SE) – These sensations
Under Eye (UE) – How my body is feeling
Under nose (UN) – I breathe deeply releasing any negative feelings, emotions and thoughts.
Under bottom lip (UL)- I choose in this moment to intend to have a better day.
Collar bone point (CB) – I reach for better feeling thoughts now and throughout the day.
Under Arm (UA) – I choose to turn from my feelings (for example resistance) to releasing the
tightness and stickiness.
Top of Head (TH) – So I choose right now and throughout my day to release and let go.
BE – I reach for better feeling thoughts to love myself to free myself.
SE – Maybe I can choose more (perhaps freedom in this example), I trust I can
work through this issue.
UE – I choose to release myself and trust myself that I can do it.
UN – I can feel better and release to boredom (neutrality).
UL – I can choose to love myself and feel great in this moment as I
move to contentment.
CB – maybe I can feel hope.
UA – So I choose to relax and release the negative and feel grateful.
TH – I am choosing to start my day feeling better so I can have a better day.
BE – I have this great tool (tapping) and I am in control of my emotions.
SE – So I tap out the negative emotions I had.
UE – I start to program my sub-conscious with positive emotions and thoughts.
UN – I am master of my emotions and thoughts.
UL – I choose to feel good and enlist my 70 trillion cells that know how to feel great.
CB – I let any remaining negativity go.
UA – I am so grateful I can release my emotions in this moment and so release them.
TH – I am going to have a fantastic day (if still feel unsettled or something comes
up continue until you feel it releasing).
Step 4 Rate how you feel again, 0 (no charge) to 10 (most charged in the emotion). Congratualte yourself on any reduction of the feelings. This is movement in the right direction. If you are above 2-3 find time to continue tapping when you can and release the charges you have.
Step 5 have a really great day and continue to tap daily or whenever you need it.
A noted researcher in the EFT world, Dawson Church, says even if we can’t figure out the exact words to use while tapping; just tapping on the endpoints releases stress and makes us feel better. This is the way to create more positivity and lower stress.
The more specific to your situation you make the script the better results you will have. Have fun and play with making your own scripts they get better the more you do it and if it feels good you are doing good for yourself.
Have a great winter, a great time to hibernate and prepare for the spring by examining where you are emotionally and changing to a more positive emotional lifestyle (lower stress and create positivity),
