Is There a Difference in How You Tap on Positive vs. Negative Affirmations?

Hi, Anne -

I love getting your positive affirmations [from the Facebook "Think it... Be it... See it!" fan page], but I’m a bit confused on how you tap the positive affirmations vs. the negative. I thought EFT was for tapping on negative emotions or problems to get rid of them and not sure how to do the positive tapping. Would you be able to give me some examples?

Thank you,
MB

Hi, there!

Yes, you are absolutely correct that when you use EFT to clear out “stuff” or negative feelings/beliefs you would focus upon those negative feelings.

But we’re not always feeling negative (thank goodness!) AND we all want to create more of what it is we want in our lives. If we choose to consciously create by using the Law of Attraction (LOA) and EFT to focus our attention upon what it is we want, then we can actually create our desires more quickly into being. (Basically, the LOA is simply this: whatever we focus upon increases. Abraham (of Abraham-Hicks fame) puts it this way: “That which is like unto itself is drawn.” (By the way, we are always using the LOA, whether we are doing it consciously or not.)

So, this means that by focusing upon what we DO want and tapping on that, we can move the energy even more quickly so that we become more aligned with what it is we desire or wish to create. When we are in alignment with it, meaning we believe we can have it or create it, then we see it manifest in our lives.

EFT is a powerful tool to help us clear the stuff that says we can’t have what we want. You can use EFT to tap on the “tail-enders” of an affirmation. This would look like this: Say the affirmation is “I can create all the wealth I desire.” Well, you may be thinking “yeah, right!” because in your life you haven’t been able to create all the wealth you desire. That “Yeah, right!” is the tail-ender. And it is made up of all the negative emotions, memories, beliefs, inner conversations, things your parents, teachers, friends, society have told you that you on some level believe. THAT is the stuff to shift.

You can break it down one piece at a time and tap on each one, which is a painstaking process, but effective, or you can tap when you are aware that you’ve been triggered about something (there’s a disturbance in the force, as I like to say). And you can also listen to affirmations and tap along with them.

We can (and do) shift our beliefs/energy/vibration/thoughts in many, many different ways. And it is up to us to actually do the work of shifting them. If we do not, we will not ultimately move into alignment with our dreams and our desires.

I hope this helps.

Warmly,
