The Power of Tapping

 You might have heard of it: Tapping. Or its official name—Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
It looks a bit unusual at first: gently tapping on certain points on your face, chest, and hand while speaking simple sentences out loud.

When I first came across it in Australia, years ago, my first thought was mostly: This is weird, it can’t possibly work… does it? I don’t understand.
Something so simple?

But that simplicity turned out to be the very thing that makes it so powerful.

After years of using Tapping myself and guiding clients through it, I know now: it isn’t a trick. It works.
Even if it still sounds a little “woo-woo” when I explain it, you’d be surprised how many well-known people now rely on it.

And it’s not just the feel-good effect. There’s solid science behind it.
Research shows that Tapping can:

• Lower cortisol and reduce stress
  • Rewire pain-processing pathways in the brain
  • Improve cardiovascular markers
  • Strengthen the immune system

And Tapping isn’t niche anymore.
You’ll see it in shows like Ted Lasso, Jane the Virgin, and Grace & Frankie—and even artists like Madonna, P!nk and Ariana Grande use it behind the scenes.
Various Olympic sport teams use it to quieten their mind and release anxiety.
It helps to stay grounded. Deals with fear of flying, public speaking,

In other words: it’s not just mindset work.
Tapping speaks directly to the body’s own systems and inner wisdom—where real change begins.

That’s why it often works when willpower or positive thinking simply don’t reach far enough.
It’s a different kind of therapy, soft yet deeply effective—worth trying, especially when everything else feels stuck.

On my (Dutch) website you’ll find free Tapping videos for anxiety, pain, self-confidence and more.
And if you want to explore further, The Tapping Solution on YouTube is a great place to start.
There is also a Tapping Card Deck made by Jessica Ortner, where you shuffle the cards, pick one and do the tapping!
