My Lazer Tapping program may be my #1 favorite mind/body/spirit healing tool – but that doesn’t mean it is the only tool I ever use! If there’s one thing everyone on a healing journey learns, it’s that true, root-level healing is wholistic. So rather than mimicking drug medicine and looking for the ‘magic pill,’ it is far more helpful to think of healing as a multi-dimensional, or multi-faceted process.

These are the physical-level substances I always have on hand in my medicine bag, but what about the deeper layers – oftentimes the origin of the physical symptom(s)?

This email from a Lazer Tapping member explains this crucial healing process with her own story:

Several months after becoming a Lazer Tapping member, I have to say it is a truly beautiful healing tool.

I started working with it from a Victim viewpoint. This means that I was seeing myself as a never-ending problem to solve, so I was using this technique mainly to search for a “clear healing result” and running away from the pain and uncomfortable emotions. But through the victim you don’t appreciate the subtle changes. You’re waiting for big, obvious ones, and this healing tool, at least for me, doesn’t work like that.

The changes just happen, without fireworks, in a subtle but strong way. So if you are waiting for the big WOW you’ll not realize what’s happening, but the progress is there and it’s working! Even though I was not working with it in a “clean” way, it still works, and I feel it has pushed me through many barriers that I wasn’t really aware of.

At first I wasn’t using it from a conscious place, but trying to escape the pain through daily tapping sessions. But in the last month though, I’ve done maybe two or three sessions only, but they felt so real and grounded. So now I tap only after something important arises; that I wasn’t conscious about before. Then I can truly feel the energies of the brand new consciousness of the issue.

I find that, in my case, I cannot work with tapping on a regular basis, as that impulse in me is my victim escaping from my feelings and sensations, instead of being at peace with them and just feeling them. But, it helps me a lot to open those doors that my inner-work makes visible. I’m finding that it works really well along other tools; such as sound healing. One bring up the hidden stuff and then Lazer Tapping goes for it and re-codes it.

Now I feel I have a well-constructed pack of tools where I can work with vibration, body, voice, subconscious mind, spiritual body, energetic body, and mix everything to make it stronger. I recommend Lazer Tapping highly as it has been an amazing addition to my “go-for” healing tools, helping a lot to re-code my mind and behaviors and helping bringing to light issues that I didn’t want to see, or I was resistant about, even when not working consciously towards that goal!

So, as this email illustrates, make sure you’re not looking to Lazer Tapping to make your icky feelings or traumatic memories disappear. The process involves you going into those feelings or memories, creating a space where you are supported and allowed to truly feel everything you’re feeling. But in a way that does not get overwhelming, or scary. As this member discovered, using it to try to bypass feelings, or tap them away, can work – but it’s not optimal. And it’s not long-term.

What are the ways you currently use to get into your feelings – to get insight on why you’re so upset, or why you feel irritable or edgy?

For me, I like to use guided meditations – this one is included in the Lazer Tapping course for exactly this reason – or journaling, medicine/oracle cards, asking my kids or hubby what they see/perceive in me, or hanging out with my horses. Horses are such energy-based animals that they quickly make me aware of what’s really going on with me.

Have you tried acupressure tapping yet (I wrote about it in Ch. 6 of Listen To Your Gut)? I strongly encourage you to give it a whirl – try a free session and see what you think/feel. I purposely offered these 3 sessions for free since they are issues common to almost everyone with chronic illness. Let me know what you think!
