EFT Tapping to feel Grounded + Safe in my body - Script + Video
Nov 03, 2022A Tapping into Motherhood Member emailed me this week and said she needed some help - a tapping script to help her feel safe in her body, to help her come home and be present and grounded. So I have created and recorded this video and want to share it with everyone. Please feel free to use this often and share it with anyone who you feel needs it.
EFT Tapping to feel grounded and safe in my body
We don’t always feel safe in our bodies. With trauma, our spirit and our physical body can separate. Sometimes we can feel disconnected from our physical body. We can feel like we’ve “jumped ship”. Disassociation is when we feel split off from ourselves, we can be detached from our emotion or our bodies. This is normal, but when you manage to recognise that you don’t feel grounded, you are not really connecting with your emotions (numb) and you feel low-level anxiety a lot of the time, maybe you aren’t sleeping well either, maybe you don’t trust yourself and are looking for validation or answers externally, then this is the script to do.
Reconnecting to our bodies helps us understand ourselves better, and helps us to feel which allows us to heal. It can bring us back clarity, confidence, trust and a sense of groundedness. It allows us to feel more joy, love and peace.
As you reconnect with your body some feelings might come up, so I suggest if that happens you keep tapping, tune in to those feelings, follow where they lead you, and validate them, they may have been hidden for a long time. It is safe to look at them now, you have a safe container to process them.
Before starting, tune into how you feel or your lack of feeling, perhaps you can connect to a void or a numbness. Where in your body is it? Give it a colour, a texture, and name that emotion if you can too and use your words instead of mine (in the setup and throughout the session). Chase this energy around your body. Rate this on a scale of 0-10 – ten not feeling safe or grounded at all.
Set up Statement: (tapping on the side of the hand)
Even though it doesn’t feel safe in my body right now, and it doesn’t feel safe to be me here in this body, I choose to love and accept my mind, body and soul anyway
Even though I am feeling numb in my body because I’ve ‘checked out’ a little, I choose to love and accept my mind, body and soul anyway
Even though it doesn’t feel safe to be me, to share my true self with those around me and the world, I choose to look at this today and bring my mind, body and soul back into alignment
