Sometimes when people hear about tapping, they’re not quite sure what it is or why it works. Maybe you’ve heard it called EFT, or Emotional Freedom Technique. There are very structured ways to do it, with specific points and sequences.

I take a much simpler approach.

For me, tapping is just a beautiful way to help the body move emotion and energy that feels stuck.

Our emotional life isn’t just happening in our minds — it lives in our bodies too. When we feel anxious, overwhelmed, sick, or emotionally flooded, our nervous system can get a little stuck in that state. Tapping is one way to gently help the body shake things loose.

During my years teaching yoga, I started noticing something interesting. After two decades of guiding people through movement and breath, I became very attuned to the subtle signals the body gives when emotions are stuck — tight shoulders, collapsed posture, shallow breathing, restless energy in the room. Sometimes I could almost feel where energy wasn’t flow...

Since my husband's job over the years of marriage has determined where we live, we've moved a lot. I used to freak out inside when he hated his job and wanted to get a new one. In our younger years, we thought that changing our Circumstance was the answer to solving problems.

The I.T. world is constantly changing, and my husband has worked hard to stay relevant and keep current in the tech industry. Whenever his boss or upper management would change, he would get nervous.

On one such occasion, he updated his resume in 2011 and was contacted by an Amazon recruiter who quickly flew him to Seattle, arranged for two days of grueling interviews, and then offered my husband the Amazon moon of a job, with excellent pay, benefits, and stock options.

And just like that, our little family moved to Seattle.

Except that I didn't want to move.

No thank you Amazon. No thank you Seattle. No thank you rain. and NO THANK YOU leaving my music career, friends, and family.

I was comfortable in Utah....
