❤️The New Year of 2026 is just around the corner.
Just as Christmas did, this means different things to everyone. It can be painful for people experiencing loss and grief of all kinds. And time for personal reflection.

❤️Social media will start exploding with how well people have done, how well businesses have done and the great times they have had and how they look forward to 2026, which is so lovely to hear and be thankful for.
Please don’t put pressure on yourselves if your year is not like others! Don’t feel like you’ve failed, you haven’t and you’ve survived. It’s just another year. Do it your way.

❤️Let’s open the book of opportunity and look after the things you need to, such as mental health, friendships, relationships and jobs or anything else that’s important to you. Give yourself permission to let go of the things that don’t serve you well.

❤️Let’s also spare a thought for those that need a little help, a little guidance and support on the new path of 2026.

Reach out and ask for help! I’m always here to listen and there is no judgement. DM me if you need support as we move into 2026.

❤️Sending everyone the best of wishes.

🌻Tapping Into Calm: Using EFT to Manage Anxiety

Anxiety can feel like an overwhelming wave, crashing over us at the most unexpected moments. Whether it’s the pressure of daily life, uncertainties about the future, or specific triggers, many of us have felt its grip. However, there's a powerful tool at our disposal that can help us manage anxiety: Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), commonly known as tapping.

What is EFT?

EFT is a simple yet effective technique that combines elements of cognitive therapy and acupressure. By tapping on specific meridian points on the body while focusing on the anxiety you're experiencing, you can help release the emotional charge associated with it.

There are certain steps to take when using EFT for Anxiety

Identify Your Anxiety.
Take a moment to pinpoint what’s causing your anxiety. Is it a specific event, fear of the unknown, or something else? Acknowledging the source is key.

Rate Your Anxiety on a scale of 0 to 10, where do you feel your anxiety is right now? This will help you measure your progress after tapping.

Create a Set Up statement that acknowledges your anxiety and affirms self-acceptance. For example: ‘Even though I feel anxious about [specific issue], I accept this is how I feel’

Start Tapping - Use your fingertips to tap on the following meridian points while repeating your setup statement:

Repeat - Continue tapping through the points while expressing your feelings about the anxiety. You can also use reminder phrases like: ‘This anxiety about [specific issue].

Reassess Your Anxiety. After a round of tapping, rate your anxiety again. Notice if there’s been a shift.

Repeat as Needed. If your anxiety level hasn’t decreased significantly, go through the process again, adjusting your setup statement as necessary.

Top Tips:

Practice Regularly. Make EFT a part of your daily routine. The more you use it, the more effective it can become.

Stay Present - Focus on your feelings in the moment. Tapping can help ground you and bring awareness to your body.

Combine with Other Techniques.
Consider pairing EFT with counselling, mindfulness, deep breathing, or journaling for a more holistic approach to managing anxiety.

Remember, it’s okay to seek support. If your anxiety feels unmanageable, consider reaching out.

By integrating EFT into your life, you can take proactive steps toward managing anxiety and reclaiming your peace of mind. Let’s tap our way to calm!

It is better to work with a practitioner in the beginning to ensure safety and tapping on the correct points. Once confident you can use it daily at home, at work or wherever you need it.

🌻Let’s talk EFT!

What is it?

😶‍🌫️EFT follows a core set of steps that combine a focused mental process with physical stimulation.

💡How do you do it?

1. Identify the problem first and focus on one specific problem, emotion, or physical feeling

For example

All this anxiety I feel about my hospital appointment.

Or

All this stress I feel about my house move.

Where do you feel it?

😥All this pain in my lower back

Or

🥲All this pain in my tummy

Then we need to think about how intense the feeling is, rating it on a scale of 0 (no distress) to 10 (worst possible distress), or somewhere in-between.
This gives you a starting point to measure your progress.

Working with a practioner you can start to use EFT and work through these issues, and clear them all one by one.

🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️Do you have anything you want to clear, are you aware of emotions you don’t want anymore?

⚠️You don't have to believe in it for it to work.
EFT's effect on the body's energy system can occur regardless of your faith in the method. This method has a powerful result and quickly regulates your nervous system.

😩Do you have an ache in your chest or tension in your shoulders? Or carry other types of aches and pains?

💭You may not be aware but they’re not signs of weakness — they’re messages.

🤔 Tummy aches, aching back, shoulders, headaches and migraines to name a few.

♥️ Your nervous system is holding on.

↪️Using Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), otherwise known as tapping helps you gently let go.

💭Have you ever thought about times in your life where things ‘happened’ (THE EVENT)

❓These events happened and your life was never quite the same, you started to believe things about yourself to be true, with no evidence to back this up. (YOUR EXPERIENCE).

😢You struggled!
You started feeling emotions that you can’t explain.
Your behaviour changed. (THE EFFECTS).

‘It’s ok to not be ok’

♥️Don’t struggle alone.

💙A nice hair cut or facial makes you feel good but the journey to self discovery and fulfilment is one worth taking, investing in your mental health is so important.

🌻If this resonates with you get in touch by DM.

This is a really powerful image.

💭Let’s think about ANGER! 😡

🤔 Does it take over your day/week etc?
🤔 Can you acknowledge where you feel it?
🤔 How do you deal with it?
🤔 What triggers it?
🤔 What’s your release/outlet?

Here’s some ideas below to help you manage the feeling of ANGER! 😡

🌻Try to do some journaling and reflect on what’s bothered you.

🧡 Do a workout, dance or yoga, there are free ones on YouTube so no need to cost money to go to the gym or classes.

🚶‍♂️Go for a run or walk

🫣 Intensive cleaning (or maybe not). 😀 But some people like this and it helps shift the feeling.

🗣️Talk to yourself with compassion and empathy as you would talk to a friend who is struggling.

🤛Clench and release your fists 10 times whilst breathing slowly.

👐Give yourself the Butterfly hug

😱Scream into a pillow. (Make sure you feel safe to do this).

🎶Play some music loud, and even dance around.

📝 Write a letter(this helps you vent in a safe way).

😂 Watch a funny video or film. 🍿

Reach out if you are struggling. Don’t cope alone. There are people who can help.

🌎 Today is World Mental Health Day, but it’s important to remember that your mental health is equally as important every day.

☹️ Are you struggling?

🧡 Do you need a safe place with a non judgemental person to speak to?

🙋‍♀️If this is you, reach out to me by DM and we can arrange a chat.

❓Do you worry too much about the future?

⬇️This is why you should try not to worry about it.

👥The future only exists in our own imagination and when we worry about what MIGHT happen it tends to pulls us away from what IS actually happening for us in the present.

💡Most worries never come true and what people worry about either don't happen at all or aren't as bad as expected.
(Try not to worry about what has not happened).

🌻The present moment will always be where your power is. The choices you make shape your future.

💛Stay grounded, you're indirectly taking care of yourself and able to deal better with things that come your way.

🌻 Feeling SAD…..what do you do?

Here’s some tips to help you. 🌻

🧡Text or call someone you haven’t
talked to in a while. (Connection is good).

💛 Step outside and get some natural light. ☀️

🧡Write down things you are grateful for. ✍️

💛 Do one tiny self care thing. (A bath, facial, a walk, coffee with a friend etc). Or find things that don’t have to cost money. I mean look at those Highland Cows. 🐄
An autumn walk 🍁 Collect some leaves paint them, collect shells or stones. Colour in a book.

🧡Listen to songs they make you feel good, or feel good films/comedies.

🌻If you’re struggling and need some help, I can offer therapy, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) or a combination of both.
