Step 1: Neutralize Resistance
Key points:
• Say: “I release all my resistances and aversions to letting go of…” (name the memory)
• Pause ~30 seconds after the statement
• Notice what happens (nothing, relief, or something new comes up)
• Don’t analyze — move on to Step 2 regardless
Step 2: Release Emotional Attachments
As you learned in Module 3, if what you’re focusing on is mainly a bodily sensation or emotionÂ
(tension in the chest, heart racing, sadness), you can also use:
“I restore the right energy flow to…”
… and insert what you’re noticing.
Most of the time, the emotional attachment statement works perfectly.
This is simply an additional option that can work well with bodily sensations and emotions.
Step 3:Â Tell the Story While TappingÂ
This step can feel a bit messy or emotional. That’s completely normal.
You don’t need to do this perfectly. Just tell the story and tap.
Step 4:Â Release the Belief You LearnedÂ
Key points:
• Ask: “What did I conclude from this experience?” to uncover the belief
• Say: “I release all my emotional attachments to…” (insert the belief)
• Tap on the belief and anything new that comes up
• Keep checking if the belief still feels true or charged
• Continue until the belief no longer triggers you
