TAPPING with MOVIES By Figen Genco
If
there is a TV series that includes a character that you identify with,
or if you feel strong about a scene in a movie and realize sensations
in your body, start tapping. You actually don't need to say anything
while you tap because you are already in the moment. Your physical body
is reacting and your mind thinks you are actually living it. Remember
your mind doesn't know real from fantasy- that's why you start
salivating when you think of cutting a lemon. So seize the moment and
keep tapping!
If you feel the need to say something while you tap, here are a few options that you can use:
1. I deeply and completely accept myself.
2. Even though I feel ........(whatever you are feeling at that moment)........., I deeply and completely accept myself.
3. Even though I want to...... (whatever you want to do to the other people in the movie who are causing the character you identify with suffer)....., I deeply and completely accept myself.
If it is a movie really affecting you, you might purposefully use it for healing by stopping it when the emotions are strong, and when it takes you back to memories. Your emotions don't have to be only the negative ones. You can also tap for the seemingly positive emotions. Often, these highly emotional "positive"looking events keep you in the past with the constant craving of creating and experiencing the same delicious sensations. So tap for them and let them go as well!
