TAPPING TO REDUCE SOCIAL ANXIETY
Do you feel anxious in social situations?
If you do, then you’re not alone. Social anxiety is really normal, especially post pandemic. We were isolated from people for a long time and your nervous system would have adapted to that change so it’s understandable that people are still adjusting to social interactions. In small doses a bit of anxiety is no bad thing at all but what you don’t want, is for it to build and feel overwhelming to the point that you then start to avoid social situations because our brains NEED human connection.
Human brains are wired to connect with others, and this need is as fundamental as the need for food or shelter.
Whatever your fear is of social situations, try this tapping process now to calm your nerves and rebuild your confidence once again. Your brain will love you for it!

5 MIN TAPPING TO NURTURE YOUR INNER CHILD
Your childhood forms the foundation of your mental health because it’s when your brain and nervous system are still very much developing. Everything that happens to you in this time forms an internal blueprint for who you believe you are and how you see the world around you. It’s the time when your nervous system learns how to adapt to stress and when your strongest limiting beliefs are formed.
This is why your ‘inner child’ is so important. When we have big reactions to things it’s often our wounded inner child that has been triggered and it’s happening without us even realising.
We all have an inner child inside of us, that for whatever reason, maybe didn’t have their needs met. It’s such an important part of who you are and doesn't take long to tune in to them and make them feel loved.
Try this short tapping process now to nurture your inner child and see how much calmer you feel.

3 MIN TAPPING TO REDUCE ANXIETY
Anxiety is a completely normal human emotion that everyone experiences to varying degrees. If we didn’t have it we would all be lemmings walking into the road, so anxiety quite literally keeps us safe.
The problem is, our amygdala (brains fear response) doesn’t know the difference between a real and imagined threat. This is why you can feel anxious speaking in public, going on a date, new social situations, thinking about a future event, making new friends, getting on a busy bus….none of these are REAL threats to your life but your amygdala still thinks you’re about to get eaten by a sober toothed tiger.
Tapping is the perfect way to face it head on, which is the quickest way to reduce anxiety and bring stillness to your body and mind. The physical tapping sends a calming signal directly to your amygdala and reminds your nervous system that you are in fact SAFE.
Are you feeling anxious right now? Try this quick 3 minute tapping process and see how you feel.

5 MIN TAPPING FOR POSTPARTUM MUMS
The postpartum haze is really tough. Your brain has just gone through more changes than at any other time in your life, your body has just birthed your baby and you are permanently sleep deprived. That’s a lot for any new mum to go through!
Tapping really helped me navigate the postpartum phase with both my babies so try this short process now and see how it makes you feel. Mumma - I see you, and I totally feel you - you are doing great!

TAPPING ON THE FEAR OF FLYING
Do you have a fear of flying?
The fear of flying affects many people but the route cause will often vary. It could be the fear of not being in control, the fear of feeling trapped, the fear of something bad happening, the fear of being surrounded by people, the anxiety will be different for each person.
Anytime you experience fear or anxiety your nervous system goes into the ancient fight / flight response, which means you go into high alert. Tapping is the perfect way to engage your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and relaxation) and the words you say out loud help you process your fear.
With tapping we always face our challenge head on because when we say out loud how we are genuinely feeling it’s the most affective way for your brain to process your emotions. If there is anything else that lies behind your fear then bring that language into your tapping script.
When you are actually on the plane you can simply tap on your points and breathe, alternating your breath and repeating the affirmation ‘I AM SAFE’.
Inner eyebrow - Inhale
Outer eyebrow - Exhale
Under the eye - Inhale
Under the nose - Exhale
Under the mouth - Inhale
Chest - Exhale
Under the Arm - Inhale
Top of the head - Exhale
Try this tapping process above to help you reduce your fear of flying and for a shorter tapping process you can try this HERE.
Collarbone Breathing is also another great technique for reducing anxiety and can easily be done while sat on a plane.

TAPPING TO RELEASE YOUR STRESS
WHAT IS STRESS?
"A state of worry or mental tension caused by a difficult situation" World Health Organisation
Stress is a normal part of being a human being, it's a natural response that prompts us to address challenges and threats in our lives. The problem is we live in such a fast paced digital world where people feel like they need to be switched on 24/7 so there are many things that can stress us out.
Endless access to world news, social media, busy jobs, the cost of living, parenting juggles, mobile phones, and the general day to day stress of life...it's easy to see how a normal amount of stress can quickly lead into chronic stress.
WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING WHEN WE'RE STRESSED?
Anytime you feel stressed your amygdala (brains fear response that contributes to emotional processing) sends out a distress signal to your hypothalamus, which is like a mini control centre in your brain. Your hypothalamus then starts to send out stress hormones (adrenaline, cortisol, and norepinephrine) which then trigger the ancient fight or flight response. Your nervous system then gets your body gets ready for the perceived threat - muscles tense, heart rate quickens, breathing speeds up, digestive system slows down.
WHAT DAMAGE CAN STRESS DO TO YOUR BODY AND MIND?
Short doses of the stress response are ok as your nervous system has the time to go back to a place of rest and relaxation but when you're body is in a constant state of high alert the long term exposure to cortisol and other stress hormones can negatively impact nearly all of your body's process's.
This puts you at higher risk of many health problems, including:
Anxiety
Depression
Digestive problems
Headaches
Muscle tension and pain
Heart disease, heart attack, high blood pressure and stroke.
Sleep problems
Weight gain
Problems with memory and focus
HOW DO WE MANAGE STRESS?
Managing your stress levels is an essential way to look after both your mental and physical health but it's important to remember that life doesn't have to be completely free of stress for you to be able to effectively regulate your nervous system. We can't control what life throws at us, but you can control how you react.
Tapping
Tapping is a wonderful way to bring your nervous system back into balance anytime you feel stressed, try this 10 Min tapping sequence above and notice how it makes you feel with no judgement.
Pepare your Nervous System
The start of the day is really important to get your nervous system ready for the day. Set an alarm (something calming like a bird sound) to wake you up 10 mins earlier and do something that calms your mind. That could be a listening to a meditation, doing some tapping, some breathwork or moving your body like a short yoga sequence. If you’re a mum like me then THIS is how you can meditate in the morning.
Regulate your breathing
Take time throughout the day to bring your breath down into your belly. This is the best way to engage your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and relaxation) and THIS is how you do it:
Be mindful of how you use your phone
Mobile phones can be a big cause of stress and anxiety so be really mindful about how you use your phone throughout the day. Reduce the amount of time you spend on social media, stop reading the news, silence your notifications, don't feel like you need to reply to endless Whatsapp messages, never look at your phone first thing in the morning and last thing at night and physically put your phone away when you are doing another task or sat at the dinner table.
Create a sleep ritual
The end of the day is an important time to signal to your brain - it's time to switch off. Get off any screens at least 1 hour before bed and do something that calms your mind like tapping, meditation, hot bath, journalling, calming smells… When you improve your sleep, it's much easier to regulate your emotions (and stress response) the next day.
Regularly do these three things:
Release jaw, soften hands, relax shoulders.
Listen to this meditation to deeply anchor your mind in the present momet, reduce your stress levels and create a bubble of protection around yourself.
5 MINUTE TAPPING BEFORE BED
It's so important to wind your mind down at the end of a busy day because a good quality sleep is the foundation of your mental health and wellbeing, but it’s not always easy to do if you’ve been looking at a screen or your phone all day. The chances are your brain has been overstimulated and switching off might feel impossible to do, this is where tapping can really help!
The physical tapping brings your nervous system back into balance and enables you to engage your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and relaxation). The words you say out loud, give your brain the invaluable space it needs to process the day and start to unwind.
Watch this 5 minute tapping video to bring stillness to busy mind and prepare yourself for a restful nights sleep.

3 MIN TAPPING TO START YOUR DAY
The start of your day is a REALLY important time for your mind. It can make the difference between having a good or bad day. When you set your brain up right you'll be much better equipped to deal with what the day might throw at you. Never look at your phone first thing in the morning it’s like giving your mental health and power away, instead do something that calms and soothes both body and mind.
This 3 minute Tapping Process won't take long at all but will be having a BIG impact on your nervous system - the perfect way to start the day!
TAPPING ON THE STRESS OF MOVING HOUSE
Buying a house or moving home is one of the most stressful things to go through because our home is our core safety. We need a home to make us feel safe and secure. When that is up in the air, it can make us feel really unsettled, ungrounded and anxious.
I’ve just been through a year long (very stressful) process of buying and tapping really helped me the whole way through. It helped to process the anxiety of uncertainty, regularly reduce my stress levels and ensure that I was able to get through it without fully burning out.
I wanted to share a tapping process specifically designed to target the stress of moving home so if you’re going through it, watch this video now and hopefully it can help make you feel a bit more calm and grounded xx

THESE 10 DAYS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
16th TAPPING WORLD SUMMIT
Life isn't always easy. In fact, for most people, it involves a lot of stress and struggle on a daily basis. With finances, work, health, relationships, and a lot more. Most people are dealing with more stress, anxiety and overwhelm than they realise.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
Which is why I want to share what is probably the most transformational FREE online event that exists - The Tapping World Summit. I've been watching it for years gaining so many insights, inspiration and self healing and this year Jessica Ortner herself invited ME to be part of it (HUGE pinch me moment).

IS YOUR BRAIN HARD WIRED FOR NEGATIVE THINKING?
A lot of people really beat themselves up over "negative thinking."
It is, of course, true that in order to create the life we want today, changing our thinking to be more positive is extremely important and effective for reaching our goals.
But...
Did you know that negative thinking is actually hardwired into the brain, in one of the most ancient parts of it? And that it's there for a very important reason?
If you want to find out what this reason is, and how you can overcome it, I recommend watching a video just put out by my friend and New York Times bestselling author Nick Ortner that shares more about this primitive part of the brain, why it's not your fault if you think negatively, and what you can do about it.
He'll show you how you can use Tapping to literally rewire the neuropathways of the brain to create the life you want. He'll even take you through a simple yet powerful process with it that will have you instantly feeling better. You can check it out here:
Here's the reality about negative thinking...
It's hard-wired in our brain for a reason and not easy to overcome unless you have a technique or tool to overcome it. If you feel you get stuck in patterns of negative thinking, take a breath, and know that it's not your fault.
But know that there IS something you can do about it. With this simple video, you'll learn how to use EFT Tapping to get past this primitive part of the brain and remove the negative thinking, limiting beliefs and chronic negative emotions that stifle our ability to grow and create the life we want.
WATCH IT NOW
Enjoy!
Kim xx
P.S. - Nick is releasing this video as part of the lead up to his 16th Annual Tapping World Summit, which starts on February 26th and this year they asked me to be part of it, I'm still pinching myself!!!
This event has been attended by over 2.5 million people over the last 15 years. It is a truly life-transforming event that you don't want to miss out on.
YOU ARE ENOUGH
Do you struggle to believe that you are enough? If you do, then you’re alone. One of the most common limiting beliefs is 'I'm Not Enough'. Whether it's I'm not good enough, I'm not rich enough, I'm not beautiful enough, I'm not successful enough - not feeling 'enough' can have a big impact on your confidence and self worth.
Tapping is a powerful way to start to change your inner narrative and rewire your mind to think differently.

MANIFEST THE LIFE YOU WANT - 6th December @ 8pm
“A manifestation is something that is put into your physical reality through thought, feelings and beliefs" Law of Attraction
Without consciously realising - we are always manifesting. Every thought you have creates an energy flow within and around your physical being. This energy attracts its likeness. So if you’re thinking “I’m not good enough” then your energy may start to reflect that and it will be harder to attract positive experiences that align to your authentic self. Manifesting is a powerful way to identify what you really want from life, overcome your limiting thoughts and start to turn your dreams into reality.
This one hour VIRTUAL workshop includes:
Insight - into what manifesting actually is and the four step process to follow.
Breathwork - to calm and soothe your nervous system.
Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) to help you overcome any self doubt that might be holding you back.
Manifesting - the life that you want and identifying your dreams.
Visualisation - to help put your dreams out into the universe.
The workshops is only £20 and spaces are limited. To book on just click below or you can email me direct on kim@happyheads.me .
I LOVE manifesting so i’m really excited to share this one with you and really looking forward to meeting you all.
Big Love
Kim xx
