Month: July 2026

In our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, we’re doing a deep-dive into our Book Club selection! This week is Chapter 4 of REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease by Nick, Jessica, & Alex Ortner.

In Chapter 4, When It Feels Like Too Much: Finding Ground In Overwhelm, the Ortners describe the modern predicament that all of us humans face now that we are far removed from our hunter/gatherer ancestors:

Rather than basking in a state of technological bliss, many of us are consumed by a never-ending sense of stress because of the situational, social, and emotional vulnerabilities that our brains misperceive as true “threats” to our survival.

On a scale of 1 to 10 many of us are operating at a 9 Level of Overwhelm when we don’t have to be.

The 5 Styles of Overwhelm

The Ortners describe the 5 Overwhelm Styles we can adopt:

1. The Human Alarm System — Everything’s “urgent.” A crisis. A fire that only you can put out. Your nervous system can’t tell what’s an actual emergency or not.

2. The Plate Spinner — You’re spinning way too many plates at once, afraid for the crash that feels inevitable. Exhausted, but you still won’t stop.

3. The Yes Machine — You say “yes,” when you mean “no.” Over-loaded, but “sure, yes I can, happy to,” comes out of your mouth anyway.

4. The Future Borrower — You’re focused not only on today, but on tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after that. Stuck in a mental loop that’s always focused on and responding to a future that hasn’t even happened yet.

5. The Absorber — Like a sponge, you soak up everyone’s stress, not just your own. You can’t tell where you end and someone else begins anymore. But, no matter, just keep feeling what’s not yours to begin with.

⭐️ Which one are you?

I see myself in # 1 and #2. A long time ago, I was stuck in #1 and now I’m closer to #2. This might sound odd, but somehow I feel like this is an improvement! 🤣

But, I really do!

#1 felt worse in my body. Like the fire was always ablaze.

#2 feels frantic and overwhelming, but I know how to aim the hose and trust in my ability to put out the fire, one room at a time.

Either way, I’d much rather live my life as far away as possible from all 5 Types, and I’m hopeful EFT can help me get there.

The Sovereignty Principle

We all have a “Choice Point” when we feel overwhelmed: to recognize that we have the choice to stop pushing through with unnecessary strain and struggle.

I love how this puts us back in our rightful place: A Position of Power, where we can “stop managing the world,” by “cultivating internal safety [inside our body, mind, and emotions,] regardless of external circumstances” (emphasis added).

How can we Stop Managing the World & Regulate Our Nervous System Instead?

As soon as we (1) Recognize we’re overwhelmed, we can (2) Interrupt the pattern our Sympathetic Nervous System is used to, by giving ourselves five minutes of EFT tapping to create space within and build the resilience to ask ourselves one simple question: What is the next right step that we can take?

When we do this, time after time, we (3) Rewire our nervous system to relax into the Parasympathetic, improving our mindset and body in the long-term.

So much so that our goal is not to get rid of all of the external circumstances surrounding us.

Instead, the goal is to widen our physiological, mental, and emotional bandwidth to handle our lives in a calm, centered, and focused way.

My MINDFUL Reflection:

I love this framework. It allows us to pull ourselves out of the turbulent waters — the external circumstances of our lives — and trains us to ride the waves instead.

And when it gets turbulent, our cortisol’s spiking, and we’re about to capsize, we can put on some goggles so the highest waves don’t bother us, even when they’re splashing in our face.

We can do something right away to help ourselves. To be the Captain of our own ship.

As soon as we see an impending storm, forming far off in the distance, we know what to do. Before things start to get really hot and humid, EFT tapping helps us to de-fog our foggy thinking and clean off our lenses, each & every time stress and overwhelm starts to fog them up.

So we can see clearly.

Then take action. One tiny step at a time.

Now, Take a Mindful Moment, to ask yourself:

⭐️ Of the 5 Types of Overwhelm Styles, which one are you?

⭐️ Were you always that way? Or, have you transformed from one style to another over time?

⭐️ Can you identify a “Choice Point,” a moment when you could use EFT to BREAK FREE instead?

⭐️ This week, pick something that overwhelms you multiple times a week to experiment with EFT. When you (1) Recognize yourself getting overwhelmed, use EFT to (2) Interrupt your typical Overwhelm Style before it takes over, and notice: the more you do this, time after time, do you sense it (3) Rewiring your nervous system? Are you able to enter a state of calm faster than usual?

⭐️ Imagine yourself, as the calm and collected Sovereign Captain of your ship.

You not only survived the storm, you’re dropping anchor, ready to spend your days relaxing in a private cove, full of pristine, soft sand, and crystal-clear turquoise water.

With EFT as my First Mate, I’m sailing there now…

In our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, we’re doing a deep-dive into our Book Club selection! This week is Chapter 3 of REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease by Nick, Jessica, & Alex Ortner.

In Chapter 3: The Science of Rewiring: What’s Really Happening in Your Mind & Body, the Ortners describe the funny disconnect when a few rounds of tapping take you from a state of stress & worry, to a state of calm, where your mind feels like it’s resting and your thoughts are no longer trapped in an anxiety spiral.

You take the win, but of course your logical mind starts cranking its gears, wondering, as the Ortners put it,

• “Was it just distraction?”

• “Is this some kind of placebo effect?”

• “Did I just imagine feeling better?”

• “How could something so simple actually work?”

Yes, it actually does work, and guess what?

EFT was A Happy Accident

EFT Tapping was first discovered in 1980, when Dr. Roger Callahan tried for a year and a half to cure his patient Mary’s fear of water using numerous modalities — systematic desensitization, cognitive therapy, and hypnosis — but nothing worked…

Until Mary described how she felt a terrible sensation in her stomach every time she thought about water, and he remembered from his study of an ancient Chinese medicine that there was a point underneath the eye that was linked to the stomach meridian. He had her tap that point while thinking about water and, like a miracle, the dis-ease she felt so strongly in her stomach disappeared.

Sensing it was gone, this woman, who never allowed herself to get anywhere near a body of water, not even to bathe in a bath, much less go anywhere near a pool, walked straight outside to a swimming pool, sat beside it, and — the next day — went to the beach by the ocean. Her fear of water was gone.

This result was entirely unexpected.

No one expected it to work so well. Not even Dr. Callahan. It’s just not how the field of psychology thought treatment worked.

Both he and Mary were perplexed, and I might be hard pressed to believe it myself, but no.

My MINDFUL Reflection:

I know EFT is tremendously powerful.

Because it worked like magic for me, too.

The first time I tried tapping during one of my migraines with aura and anxiety, the usually debilitating rumination that takes place during my migraines suddenly vanished.

Without having taken any of my migraine medication.

Without waiting in a darkened room with a mask, furiously massaging my head, begging my brain to give me a break from the anxiety spiral it usually stays trapped in for hours.

Yes, when the rumination evaporated my logical brain definitely jumped into questioning how it could be possible. I couldn’t help it. My thinking mind couldn’t stop asking, “How? Really? What’s happening? Why?” at the same time that my spirit was celebrating the drastic difference of having a migraine that was not only less physically painful, but less emotionally punishing too.

And, amazingly, I noticed that the benefits started as soon as I began tapping. From the start, what was left of the physical pain — the “prodrome” symptoms, in migraine terminology — didn’t reach the highest level of severity that it usually reaches during my migraines.

This was a completely different experience:

The prodrome felt like the beginning of a tornado, forming beneath darkened skies and threatening, ominous clouds. The wind picked up speed, beginning to spiral as it always does. The twisting vortex of pain was nearly upon me, my rumination thrashing my body and spirit as I desperately grasped the ground, flattening my body, hoping to survive the storm, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to escape it. I never could, every other time in the past.

Massaging my head, it’s like my fingers reminded me to do EFT, instead. And I watched, as the steady tapping of my own fingers along my Meridian points, cleared the storm away.

As if each tap called a cleansing wind to save me.

It came. At first a gentle breeze, then a slow yet steady front of clean, clear air that lightened the skies and pushed the darkness away, until the vortex became powerless, unable to collect itself anymore.

Like a miracle, the clouds began to part.

The sun began to shine. I felt its warmth on my face.

And a calm, cool ease spread throughout my body, as I stretched my arms wide, my fingers no longer numb, but able to feel each and every blade of bright green grass.

I did not have to strain or stress about the pain anymore, or brace myself for painful impact, because the storm had passed.

And I was somehow at peace. Without the pain that usually lasted for hours, plus at least a few days of trying to recover afterwards.

EFT was like a miracle, restoring me to just me.

Me.

Being.

In my body, without the dis-ease that threatened to destroy me.

And it wasn’t a fluke.

EFT worked like magic for my migraines more than once. Many times, in fact.

And, if you are a fellow Migraine Sufferer, you know how life-altering that is. Migraines can be so bad you go to the hospital for help. They’re so debilitating, you have to cancel plans when those prodrome symptoms start to flare up. They affect your entire life and make you plan around them.

Trust me, migraines are no where near a normal “headache.” And if you don’t believe me, or don’t “get it,” that means you’re one of the lucky people who do not get them.

And it always amazes me, how people who don’t get migraines cannot fathom the relentless pain that they can unleash. In fact, when I’ve written about my migraines in the past, and gone into detailed descriptions of the terrible rumination that can torment me during the worst of it, I shared a link to my Post with a Note — highlighting how important it is to be kind to ourselves, especially when we’re suffering — and I had a Keyboard Warrior comment, “What in the crybaby non-sense is this?”

I didn’t respond. (Why bother with someone who’s dedicated to misunderstanding you?)

But my immediate reaction was, “Tell me you didn’t read the actual Post without telling me you didn’t read the Post. 🙄”

Or, “It’s obvious you’ve never given birth to a child before — or felt a comparable amount of pain — because, clearly, you don’t know what extreme pain can feel like.”

THAT’s truly how bad my migraines with aura and anxiety can get.

But, therein lies the silver lining:

My own experience as a migraine sufferer has helped me to see just how effective EFT can be.

It’s why I believe it when the Ortners describe the miraculous effect of Dr. Callahan’s EFT on Mary.

And the science backs it up.

Decades later, in hundreds of studies, the scientific research has since confirmed that EFT works alongside your body’s electrical system. Thinking of the negative issue sounds the siren, but then the tapping short-circuits the normal loop of alarm to send calming signals to your brain instead.

And the change can be long-lasting. Scientists have discovered that when we recall a memory — even an alarming one — there is a short period of time when we can actually alter our memory of it. By tapping, we’re rewiring the memory, changing it from one of alarm to one that’s calmed.

That change sticks because as, the Ortners put it,

“The memory itself has been changed…. You’re not learning to cope with fear. You’re actually updating the source code [in 3 steps:

(1) Recognize,

(2) Interrupt, and

(3) Rewire]….

This is how lasting change happens. Not through force or willpower, but through gentle, persistent rewiring of your nervous system’s defaults.”

That’s precisely the kind of brain change that I love.

It’s like the clouds have parted, the sun’s shining, and my airplane for EFT Tapping’s flying through the air, writing my favorite geeky motto, “I 💙 Neuroplasticity!” in the sky. 🤣✈️

Now, Take a Mindful Moment, to ask yourself:

⭐️ What’s the tornado that threatens you?

⭐️ Would you like to rewire that memory so it’s no longer a threat to you?

⭐️ How might that change your identity?

⭐️ How would you feel, if you knew that you could part the clouds and bring out the sun, by simply tapping with your fingertips?

⭐️ What if we’re far more powerful than we think?

⭐️ I’m ready to use EFT to tap on all my Limiting Beliefs — to BREAK FREE from them — aren’t you?

In our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, we’re doing a deep-dive into our Book Club selection! This week is Chapter 2 of REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease by Nick, Jessica, & Alex Ortner.

In Chapter 2, Your First Tap: A Simple Practice with Profound Power, the Ortners describe how we can tap on these 9 meridian acupressure points:

1. Side of Hand

2. Top of Head

3. Eyebrow

4. Side of Eye

5. Under Eye

6. Under Nose

7. Under Mouth

8. Collarbone

9. Underarm

Whenever we think with focused attention on whatever is bothering us (by using whatever “Setup Statement” we wish to use to describe our concern), the fight-flight-freeze-fawn-or-flop modes activate in our Sympathetic Nervous System, and we can acknowledge our feelings as they are — even if they’re negative — by saying, “Even though I feel x, I completely love and accept myself.”

When we do this while tapping the 9 points, magic happens: the piezoelectric acupressure we apply with our fingers sends calming signals to our brain.

As the Ortners put it, “Your brain gets confused — in the best way. [Our brain] is registering the problem but receiving safety signals. In that contradiction, it can finally update its response.”

The rest-and-digest modes in our Parasympathetic Nervous System flips on and, as we do as many rounds of tapping as we need, we can literally gauge how our subjective, felt experience of dis-ease in our mind and body reduces on the Subjective Unit of Distress (SUD) Scale, from a high 10 to a next-to-nothing 1.

My MINDFUL Reflection

What I love most about this EFT Practice is how flexible it is.

I was able to use it many times this past week, to overcome the dis-ease I felt:

• When I didn’t feel like running errands.

• When I missed my morning piano practice two days in a row and was feeling guilty about it.

• When I wanted to put off some weeding that had to be done in the garden.

• When I had to fill out some paperwork for mailing at the Post Office.

In every instance, tapping helped me to move past the resistance in a way that was much kinder than normal. Usually, these kinds of tasks bother me, because they generate this low, yet persistent, level of dread. Like a never-ending “ughhhh” at the thought that I “have to” check it off my To Do List, mainly because I know my To Do List will never end because there’s always something new that has to be done. A few To Do’s every once and a while would not bother me much, but they do add up and generate this ever-present, icky “Background Stress.”

EFT was like a little tap on the proverbial shoulder, where I got to acknowledge that small part of my Adult Self that doesn’t always want to do the Adulting. Without letting myself off the hook, without allowing myself to avoid these tasks, I was able to help myself to feel better. To feel seen and understood. Without taking a lot of time. I really did feel better after a few quick rounds of tapping, whenever the ick arose. And it helped me to just get on with it. To just do the damn do.

Then get back to what I really wanted to do, to enjoy my life instead.

It’s helped me to remember…

There’s POWER in the Littlest Ways we take care of our Self.

And, the way we do the small things matter.

The smallest irritations prepare us.

To build up our resilience.

To relax into our routine — even when its the icky Adulting we don’t feel like doing.

To TRUST in our ability to do what’s best for us.

To be POWERFUL when the Big Issues come along and challenge us.

Now, Take a Mindful Moment, to ask yourself:

⭐️ The next time you feel stressed or upset this week, give EFT a try for 10 minutes. Before and after tapping, rate how upset you feel on the SUD scale of 1 (not upset) to 10 (highly distraught).

⭐️Did EFT help you to acknowledge your upset and allow it to pass?

⭐️Did you feel a greater sense of self-love, acceptance, and compassion?

⭐️ Might EFT be the little, yet powerful, tap on the shoulder that your nervous system needs to feel understood and enter a state of calm?

⭐️ How can EFT train your body and mind to relax, despite your daily life stressors?

Remembering there’s POWER in the Littlest Shift

In our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, we’re doing a deep-dive into our Book Club selection! This week is Chapter 1 of REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease by Nick, Jessica, & Alex Ortner.

In Chapter 1, Nick describes his first experience of putting tapping to the test, when he had terrible neck pain that wouldn’t subside after days of trying everything: painkillers, hot showers, etc. Suddenly, he remembered seeing EFT at an event and, though he was highly skeptical, he decided to give it a try.

Thinking it was “brilliantly simple or completely nonsense,” he was amazed to see that after only 10 minutes of tapping the meridian acupoints on his face, head, and collarbone, his neck pain dissolved to nothing.

It worked so well, he convinced his sister, Jessica, to try it. The same tapping helped her to process her emotions and alleviate her symptoms from being sick and congested for days.

Inspired by this newfound freedom from their pain & suffering, they combined their efforts to raise EFT awareness. Along with their brother Alex and their parents (their Engineering Dad & Therapist Mom), the entire Ortner clan joined forces to bring EFT to the greater public.

In a documentary called The Tapping Solution, they showed how EFT was capable of helping people with a myriad of different physical, mental, and emotional illnesses and ailments to activate the self-healing process that’s present inside all of our bodies. In less than a week, the entire group learned the simple self-directed EFT tapping process for the first time, then took turns discussing their unique challenges. Each person reported substantial progress, and they were able to maintain it, too.

The documentary was made years ago, but, having watched it, I can see how EFT is able to help our bodies, brains, and spirit to process and release the daily stressors in our lives and the physical pain in our bodies.

And, it’s been a powerful tool for handling serious trauma as well: the Ortners were able to bring this healing modality to help the grieving in their hometown of Newtown, CT, after the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

MY MINDFUL REFLECTION

My experience applying EFT to a few of my migraines with anxiety has opened my eyes to its power.

The documentary also helped to open my mind to the possibility that EFT can handle a wide range of issues, whether they’re smaller, like the daily upsets and stress we all go through; or whether they’re larger, like PTSD-level trauma or recurring emotional or physical pain.

Dr. Peta Stapleton’s research shows it’s scientifically supported.

But, I have to admit, a part of me remains skeptical.

The Skeptic in me asks, “Is it really possible, for simple tapping to give this level of peace?”

Upon deeper reflection, I’m starting to realize why a part of me remains skeptical:

I have this lingering Limiting Belief: That true “Emotional Freedom” — or self-improvement in general — has to be hard.

Intellectually, I know it doesn’t.

But, emotionally, I know my experience of gaining emotional freedom has been slow and incremental.

So, the speed with which EFT works is hard for me to fathom.

The Ortners’ EFT stories challenge me to question…

“What if self-improvement and freedom from difficult emotions really could be that EASY?!”

Other modalities like Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) have been proven to be effective and also rely on a similar concept: calming our nervous system with bilateral stimulation.

Might EFT be just as capable of rapid & long-lasting relief?

Merely posing this question is helping me to crack the door of my already Open Mind even further.

What if EFT is precisely what we need, to widen the space in which our subconscious can guide us from the threshold of possibility into a hallway of open-minded practice, to potentially another Room entirely, one in which our minds can develop a felt sense of TRUST in our bodies’ ability to self-heal?

What if we can strengthen our ability to handle any emotion that comes, by acknowledging it and repeating the calming refrain, “Even though I feel x, I completely love & accept myself”?

Ultimately, I see my desire to go on this EFT journey with you, as an invitation for us to practice greater self-love, to cultivate acceptance and understanding inside ourselves.

And it reminds me that…

Some of the mightiest, most powerful personal transformations can happen in the Littlest Shifts.

As I say in this Poetry Video, featuring a poem that I wrote, the Littlest Shifts have worked wonders for me, and I wish the same for you:

It reminds me, we can always find joy in life’s subtleties…yes, even in the smallest tap.

Now, Take a Mindful Moment, to ask yourself:

⭐️ What do you think?

⭐️ Do you have any prior experience with EFT?

⭐️ Have you ever watched the Ortners’ “Tapping Solution” documentary?

⭐️ Which story inspired you most?

⭐️ Might EFT be the Littlest Shift that your nervous system needs?

I strongly believe that we are stronger together. That’s why I’m encouraging us to “do the DO” as a community, in a safe & private space for members-only, where we can embrace Becoming in all of its messy glory. So, let’s BREAK FREE, together!

Simply join The Mindful VICTUS Playscape to step into a 🏡Creative Home🏡 that’s sometimes cozy, sometimes crazy, and always creative!

Together, we will deactivate the Fight-Flight-Freeze-Fawn-or-Flop response of our Sympathetic Nervous System; and activate the Rest-&-Digest response of our Parasympathetic Nervous System, so we can all see how wonderful it feels to experience safety in our body, mind, and heart. 💜 Relax into our “Messy Middle” 💜 Celebrate our Becoming 💜 Champion our Highest Self 💜 Honor our Inner Child; and, remember that, when we are Mindful, we have the power to CHOOSE what’s best for us: To drop the mask 💜 Abandon perfectionism

💜 & PLAY! 💜

Announcing The Mindful VICTUS Playscape: Our private Skool to BREAK FREE & BE FREE this Independence Day!

Join us in The Mindful VICTUS Playscape!

In my STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, we’re doing a deep-dive into our Book Club selection! This week is the Introduction of REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease by Nick, Jessica, & Alex Ortner.

But before we dive into that…

🥁 … Drum Roll please … 🥁

It’s finally time to announce our new

Private, Members-Only

🥳 🎉 🔗 Mindful VICTUS Playscape! 🔗 🎉 🥳

☝️Click to join on Skool.com☝️

It’s the safe place for us to

BREAK FREE & BE FREE

to be who we are meant to be!

🥁Why join The Mindful VICTUS Playscape?🥁

As we’ve studied books like the ones we’ve selected for our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, I’ve incorporated them into the THINK portion of The VICTUS Method, to Think-Do-&-Be my way to who I’m meant to be:

• THE ARTIST’S WAY: Recovering a Sense of Autonomy by Julia Cameron
• BEYOND ANXIETY: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life’s Purpose, by Dr. Martha Beck
• ON BECOMING AN ARTIST: Reinventing Yourself Through Mindful Creativity by Dr. Ellen J. Langer

But, the more these teachers have inspired us to Think & Re-Think, to question who we are and who we want to be…

The more I realize how important it is for us to get out of our head, drop into our heart, and MOVE…

To the next step in the VICTUS Method: DO.

Because thinking — without action — doesn’t have the power to bring us peace.

It’s knowledge without wisdom.

It’s the mind, paralyzed.

It’s potential, moving in circles.

Always on standby.

Never embodied.

Not lived.

YES, it’s the DOING that needs to be done.

We need “to do, the DO.” Not later. Now.

But, anything worth doing asks us to go beyond our comfort zone.

Uncomfortable emotions — like regret & the imposter syndrome — can keep us stuck.

MY MINDFUL REFLECTION:

Q: How can we bridge the divide between Thinking vs. Doing?

A: We need to bring SYNERGY to what we THINK + DO.

By getting not just our minds, but our bodies, involved.

That’s why I chose the Ortners’ Book — REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease — for our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵

So we’re not only reading about Better Ways of Being, but also doing the DO: tapping our way to becoming the Creatives we are meant to be.

We all deserve to experience peace, joy, and freedom.

And, because I strongly believe that we are stronger together, I’m encouraging us to “do the DO” as a community, in a safe & private space for Creatives to embrace Becoming in all of its messy glory: 🥳🎉The Mindful VICTUS Playscape! 🎉 🥳

Let’s BREAK FREE, together.

I hope you’ll join me on this Journey of Becoming & tap your way to success.

Together, we can apply the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) with an open mind.

As the Ortners make clear in the Introduction to REWIRED:

You don’t have to be who you’ve always been.

You don’t have to feel how you’ve always felt.

You don’t have to do what you’ve always done.

And it doesn’t have to take years of therapy to gain peace in the present moment.

In fact, the Ortners begin the book with an amazing story, about a mom who’s with her family at the airport. The intercom’s calling for all passengers to board. And she’s just about to abandon their trip to London. She’s panicking. Frozen with fear. She has aerophobia.

But, she’s not alone.

A stranger sees her suffering.

And, instead of staying silent, she invites her to listen & tap along to the Ortners’ guided recording for the fear-of-flying.

It works so well, she boards the plane after 10 minutes of tapping.

😳 TEN MINUTES!

Ten minutes to BREAK FREE of the mental loop that’s kept her imprisoned for years.

Not by being someone she’s not.

Not by suppressing the fear and anxiety she has.

But, by acknowledging her emotions.

By recognizing, “Yes, I’m afraid and anxious.”

And taking back control with tapping.

She taps on her meridian acupoints…

Repeating, again and again, “Even though I’m anxious and afraid to fly, I love and accept myself.”

She taps until the fear and anxiety dissipates.

Tapping the acupressure points scrambles the message of ALARM coursing through her Nervous System…

Sending a message of CALM to her Nervous System instead.

Her fear and anxiety fade away like smoke.

Tapping’s the water that’s cooled her body down.

The ten-alarm siren’s silenced.

It’s a somatic experience that’s felt…inside her body, her mind, her heart…

Until she’s able to look up and say, “I think I can do this.”

As the Ortners tell it, “the once-terrified woman boards the plane first. She gives the kind stranger a thumbs-up as she passes in the aisle. Everyone goes to London, and no one is left behind.”

All from tapping.

Transforming such a strong phobia, with real concrete action to overcome it, this fast!?

I’m intrigued & hopeful!

Because I’ve already researched the science behind why tapping works, and I had promising results with EFT during a few migraines with anxiety, so — on a scale of 1 (highly skeptical) to 10 (true believer) — I’m already a 7.

Plus, I know for a fact that whenever I’ve adopted a somatic practice that involves my body — like my daily cold showers and yoga practice — it always works to shift my mental & emotional State.

I’m all for using absolutely anything in our arsenal to help motivate us.

And you know what else fuels my State, faster than anything else?

🎉🎵MUSIC🎵🎉

In the Mindful VICTUS Playscape, we’ll be using the power of MUSIC to elevate our State!

Why MUSIC?

There’s something so magical about music.

No matter who you are…

No matter how different we might be…

We are unified in our love for music.

Music can bridge any divide. Between us. And inside us.

The lyrics…the crescendos and decrescendos…the universal understanding it imparts in us.

The moment music meets our ears, it connects us and holds space for what was, what is, what could be, and what may never be.

Every emotion’s captured in its cadence, in its heartfelt expression.

Music touches our heart, enlivens our spirit, gives us the energy to dance with our highs, and supports us in our lowest of lows.

And it has a miraculous impact upon our internal State.

Where we might tremble in fear or uncertainty, it can embolden us. It can strengthen our resolve.

When heartbreak comes for us, it can support us in our sorrow.

When we want to shrink in shame, it lifts the mask behind which we hide and whispers, “It’s okay. I see you.”

When we think no one else is like us, it allows us to see ourselves in others.

We experience our shared humanity, through our senses.

It’s visceral.

It’s primal.

Like the beating of our hearts, it’s an ancient language of frequencies, tones, and notes embedded into our evolutionary DNA.
