A diagram of tapping points can be found at http://lifeworkswitheft.com/tapping_points.htm.

Round 1:

Setup: Even though I’m feeling totally overwhelmed with all I have to do today, I deeply and completely accept who I am anyway. Even though there’s too much to do and not enough time to do it, I deeply and completely love and accept myself. Even though I don’t know how I’m going to get it all done and I just feel like giving up, I deeply and completely accept how I’m feeling in this moment.

Tapping Sequence:
I feel totally overwhelmed.
There’s way too much to be done.
I’m stressed and I haven’t even gotten started yet.
I just want to go back to bed and give up.
There’s just too much to do.
There’s no time for me.
No one should expect me to do all this is.
It’s just not fair!

Round 2:

Setup: Even though I feel resentful that I have to do all this today, I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself. Even though I’m angry and resentful that I’m expected to do all this work, I deeply and profoundly accept how I feel. Even though I’m angry and resentful that no one even appreciates all that I do, I deeply and profoundly, appreciate all that I am.

Tapping Sequence:
This anger and resentment;
All this anger and resentment that there’s too much to do
They don’t understand that this is impossible to get done;
And they don’t even acknowledge all my hard work;
Why do I even bother?
They really take me for granted;
I’m really angry that they don’t appreciate all that I do;
I’m resentful that they just expect me to get it done.

Round 3

Setup: Even though I may have taken on too much because it’s hard to say no, I deeply and completely love and accept myself. Even though I want to please everyone instead of taking care of me, I respect who I am anyway. Even though I’m afraid I’ll be rejected if I say no, I love and accept who I am.

Tapping Sequence
It’s hard for me to say “no” to people
What if they get angry at me?
Or reject me?
I wonder where this fear of saying “no” comes from?
Was I allowed to say “no” as a child?
Was I praised in the past for taking on more than I could safely manage?
For some reason it doesn’t feel safe to say “no”.
I choose to give myself permission to say “no”.
