first of all an apology. I am sorry that no posts have reached you in the last three weeks. This is due to the fact that I have been traveling and was not able to access a computer. Now I am back and here is what I am proposing to you.

The Tapping World Summit 2012. Most of the sessions have already taken place,.
If you would like to listen to them again and again, you can buy the recordings.

The Tapping is the Emotional Freedom Technique I have been talking about many times.
As this method is so powerful, you might want to listen to some of the conferences
that have already taken place but that are still online.
You can listen to them for free.

Last night there were the presentations of “Energy Medicine and Tapping:
a Perfect Marriage” and “Opening Up Your Option – The Choices Method”
You can listen to these conferences right away until 8PM EST tonight.
www.thetappingsolution.com/2012event
Tonight’s theme deals with one of the most
frequently asked questions I get and one
of the most important messages I try to
get across about Tapping.

Here’s the question…

“Can I use Tapping for _________”
(fill in the blank)

That’s what I get asked all the time.

Since Tapping has so many applications,
I’m constantly asked about different ways
in which it can be used and if it works
for different issues.

And after having helped many clients
and having seen it used by so
many others on such a huge variety of
issues, I tend to have a pretty good idea
of how it works for different issues…

But I still always come back to one main
concept that has been one of the central
themes of Tapping since it was first
developed,

And that’s that you can literally…

“Try It On Everything”!

So tonight we’re covering two hot topics
that I’ve been asked about a lot in
the past…

“Does Tapping work for improving sports
performance?”

and

“Does Tapping work for Insomnia?”

The red room presentation is with Tom
Hanson. It’s called…

EFT and Sports: The Mainstream
Breakthroughs That You Can Use Today
to Improve Performance

In this presentation Tom will share:

- His initial breakthrough, that blew him away

- Why athletes are oftentimes the easiest to
convince to use these techniques

- His breakthrough stories with athletes

- Tapping for lack of confidence

- Actual tapping session for past trauma in
sports or other performance issues

And the green room presentation is with Ruth
Stern and it’s called…

Tapping Into Deep, Peaceful Sleep and
Overcoming Insomnia

This topic is hugely popular because with
all the stress we have today, many people
struggle to sleep!

In this incredible interview presentation
you’ll discover…

- How to determine the real cause of insomnia

- Tapping for nighttime “monkey” mind

- How your daytime activities are affecting
your nighttime sleep

- Tapping protocols for deep, peaceful sleep

These two presentations go live tonight at
8PM EST. Until then, make sure to listen to
the Day 8 presentations.

Small and gentle exercises done every day, give you a wealth of benefits. Who has been doing these exercises for years and also who has been doing them for a short time, will tell you how their life has changed for  the better. They feel better physically, mentally, spiritually. Their overall health has improved. They probably do not suffer from colds anymore. Flus and allergies belong to  the past as well as  so many other health conditions  that affected them before they got to know SpringForest QiGong.

Only 5 minutes a day could change your life. Everybody can find 5 minutes to dedicate to their health., don’t you think so?

The Small Universe sitting meditation can also help you greatly. By breathing into all the important energy points around the body, every single cell of every organ and system  gets more oxygen. This means they become healthier and healthier.

I think if everybody did these exercises, Chunyi could really reach his dream of “a healer in every family and a world without pain”.!

Can you imagine how fantastic this would be? And you might contribute to the realization of this dream. It would become true for your family and for yourself!  How does this sound?

Their own contribution to the realization of Chunyi’s dream is also anchored in their company where everybody does the exercises  every working day at 11.30. They do the exercises together and create even more energy. They do it for half an hour and they are all healthy, happy and fit.

And if you want to do more for your overall health, enroll into the SpringForestQiGong retreat. that will take place from September 30 to October 5, 2012. This retreat is a unique experience.

Or others that had been on painkillers for years, could cut down on the quantity or even  abandon them completely. You too can gain perfect health. Your anxiety will disappear and become an experience you used to have and that is no longer part of your life.

Now the leaves are coming back. You can see the green veils on trees and feel the sparkling air while walking and enjoying the awakeining of nature.  Each and every year when Spring is in the air. you feel fresh and ready to face a new adventure. Life is an adventure. If you look at it with curious eyes, you will be happy to see that nature is repeating its outburst of flowers, colors, scents and that you can taste fresh vegetables that not only are delicious but that also deliver a great many health benefits.

I would like to talk about one of the most beneficial Spring vegetables, the asparagus. This vegetable  has been grown for centuries  in most areas of the planet. There exist several hundred types of asparagus but only about 20 are edible. There are three major groups. They have all a different color. The first one is white with long and rather fleshy spears, The second one is green and its spears are less fleshy and thinner  but as long as the white ones. The third group is purple in color and its spears are much shorter than those of the other two groups. In fact the white and the green type of asparagus reach a length of 6 to 8 inches whereas the purple asparagus reaches only 2 to 3 inches. This latter kind has got a fruity flavor that distinguishes it from the other two types. The asparagus should be eaten shortly after having been harvested and bought. You may  store it in the refrigerator for 2 days. After that time it starts to lose water and to shrink.

As asparagus is no longer a luxury food as it used to be time ago, you can enjoy it without spending much.

All edible types of asparagus  bring many health benefits to you. One other reason why you should eat this produce in Spring is its low calorie content. In fact a cup containing 134 grams, brings just 26 calories. .There are many ways to enjoy this vegetable.  You can eat it as it is or accompanied by an egg or some raped cheese on top. You can also cut the spears and mix the chunks with a risotto or with pasta. Whatever you choose, asparagus is healthy and tasty.

You will tell me that this is not a typical spring vegetable. In fact, depending on where you live, you can buy it from February onwards until June or even July. However, its best season is Spring.

The asparagus gives you a wealth of health benefits. I would just like to point out a few of them.

One of the major benefits is its detoxifying action. You can eat freshly steamed asparagus drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with a light seasoning. As this vegetable has high fiber content, it will help your  bowel movement. These fibers can do even more for you. They help prevent colon cancer and other forms of cancer as well. You can avoid taking laxatives if you eat this vegetable. It is also  diuretic and therefore helps you to eliminate waste in various ways.

The asparagus contains many vitamins like C, A, K, E and the complex of the B vitamins. It also brings many minerals to you like copper, phosphorus, potassium, manganese, calcium, selenium, zinc and iron. There are also other components that interest the metabolism and help avoid or better diabetes 2 and heart diseases.

This vegetable can help you  release stress and anxiety naturally if you eat it freshly steamed. You just add some drops of olive oil and  some seasoning. Why can it do this? Thanks to its loads of those B vitamins needed to help fight off stress and anxiety naturally. Enjoy it while it is fresh.

Did you know that your kidneys have an influence on your anxiety and viceversa?

Prevention is a basic tenet of holistic health, and a necessity for the maintenance of optimal kidney health. In its role as blood filter and detoxifier (fluid and waste manager) the kidney is open to significant abuse, from within and without.

Balance is another key wellness principal, and the physical manifestation of balance is the kidneys’ good functioning.. Usually,one has got  two kidneys. However, if you have got only one, it is not a problem. You can live with one kidney as long as you take care of it. The two kidneys are symmetrical bean-shaped organs. Their size is about that of a fist. They are located in the mid-back, below the ribs.

Their function is that of filtering the fluids of the body. The kidneys filter out the impurities that are not desired in your body. They will be expelled either through your skin or through the organs whose task is to do just that.  Obviously, this filtering the fluids  is a very vital function..Your kidneys  keep the body’s fluids in a chemical balance.  If this chemical balance is granted, your mental state is also much more balanced.

This means substances used to balance the interior environment They play a significant role in acid-base balance, and the control of blood pressure In fact, blood pressure is an important indicator for a good balance in the body and in the mind..The kidneys have also another task and that is to  secrete three essential hormones:  These have an important role in the regulation of  blood pressure, of the stimulation of the production of red blood cells  and the third one is an active form of vitamin D.

There are various actions that help to protect your kidneys  And that keep you calm . To be calm also means to not suffer  anxiety. The first thing to observe is to keep your kidneys warm. They are the first organ that suffers from being exposed to cold. It is therefore advised to cover them and not to expose them to cold weather. The second is to drink plenty of water. This does not mean to drink gallons in one go. It means to drink steadily, during the day. A glass of water every two hours is best. The water should not be ice water. Room temperature is best. Although obviously, there are other factors that influence your state of mind, taking care  of your kidneys helps you to prevent anxiety that is strongly linked  to your kidneys.  You can do even more to help your kidneys.

Rub your hands together,  palm to palm until they get very hot. Then massage your kidneys with your palms, then turn your hands around and massage your kidneys with your nuckles. Rub your hands palm to palm again until they are very hot and then pat your kidneys with your warm palms. This is a simple exercise that you can do every day and that helps to keep your kidneys fit. It takes only a few seconds and I am convinced that your kidneys will thank you for this special attention. This is another natural cure for anxiety.

You certainly are now doing what I proposed to you in my previous posts. Do you already feel the difference in your well-being? I bet you do.
Now, let’s get a step further. We have been talking about breathing. I would like to introduce you here to a very powerful way to activate your whole system.
This also means to relax your body more and more. In a relaxed body, the mind is also much less tense and anxiety has no chance.
The human body has various energy centers, the so-called chakras. You can breathe into them and I am going to explain to you how to proceed.
Your main energy center is deep in behind your navel. This is the seat of your life force. Now inhale into this point and, while exhaling, you push the energy to the next spot. This next spot is your bladder. Imagine that the energy you inhale is the energy of the universe that joins your own energy. In this way the energy you can use is much stronger. Then you inhale into the bladder and push, when you exhale, the energy to the spot at the bottom of your body between the legs. Then you inhale in this spot and push the energy, while exhaling, to the next spot that is the tip of your tailbone. Then inhale into that spot. Push the energy, while exhaling, to your lower back. Inhale into that spot on your lower back. Push, while exhaling, the energy to the next spot. This spot is situated between your two kidneys. Inhale into this spot. When exhaling, push the energy to the vertebrae that is situated at the height of your shoulders. Inhale into that spot and, while exhaling, you push the energy to the base of your head. Inhale into that spot and push the energy, while exhaling, to the top of your head. Then you inhale into the top of your head and exhale pushing the energy down to the third eye position, that is to your forehead. Inhale into that spot and when exhaling, push the energy down to your throat. Inhale into your throat and, while exhaling, push the energy down to your heart. Inhale into your heart and, while exhaling, push the energy down to the point behind your navel. This spot is also called the Lower Dantien. This is one complete cycle. You see, you touch all energy points around your body. You can do this cycle continuously. At the beginning you will want to do it for let’s say ten minutes. Then you can increase the time. The best is to do this exercise for half an hour. If possible, do it every day. This exercise will help you in many ways. It is easy to do. You can increase the focus of your mind by doing it. This is a very beneficial side effect. You will feel the relaxatiion in your whole body. You will also feel that your body is energized. This exercise helps not only with anxiety but with a whole range of physical conditions. In any case, it is an easy way to help anxiety and to strengthen your immune system. Chuny Lin, the founder and developer of SpringForestQiGong calls this exercise the “Small Universe”. A Small Universe is the cycle that touches all major energy centers in the human body. I highly recommend this exercise. I do it myself very often. I usually do it for half an hour.
I will continue to give you more natural cures for your anxiety. They all contribute to your overall health. This is also very important. Since I have been doing this exercise, I haven’t had a single cold nor have I had a flu or any other illness. Don’t you think that this is fantastic? I started to do this exercise about 2 years ago.

You know, anxiety can be cured in many ways. We would prefer the natural ones. I know that the synthetic ones act more quickly in general. However, there are many natural cures that act as quickly as you want them to.
You will say that anxiety comes up so quickly that you cannot make it disappear in a moment. This statement is only halfway true. I will be showing you how you can face anxiety the natural way. There are many different methods and you can choose the one that corresponds best to you.
As this is a large and vast field, I will be sharing these methods over the coming weeks. Some take into consideration your nutrition, others your breathing , others your overall life, others the more spiritual aspect. You see, there are many topics we can talk about and they will all conduct us to the same result._ Live without anxiety. I guess you all want this.
Anxiety seems to be part of our lives.. As long as it shows up in critical situations, where there is a real thing to be faced, it is ok. This is then more a fear that shows up as a panic attack and not anxiety as such. I must admit that these terms are often used in an inappropriate way. You can look up a dictionary for psychology and you will find an infinity of terms. Not even at a professional level anxiety equals anxiety.
What we are talking about is the emotion that turns up in an unexpected way , that threatens the person who is experiencing it. In most cases, it does not last for hours on end although this is possible. Anxiety as such does not harm you and you will not die, although you think you will drop dead while it lasts. Only in the long run it might have physical effects but we are here to avoid this. This is why I am going to propose to you natural cures.
The first thing I suggest is that you concentrate your attention on your fingers. You may know that each and every finger can help you to calm down.
Press the top of each finger or massage it. The effect is almost immediate.
Start preferably on the left hand. And do it by pressing the top of your pinky finger, then continue to the ring finger, the middle finger, the index finger and the thumb, then go to your right hand and do the same on the fingers of your right hand. By the end of one cycle, you are getting calmer. Repeat the cycle three times. You can do this little massage also when you do not have an anxiety attack. It is always healthy and helpful. It has an effect on all your inner organs and on the nervous system.
This is the first simple natural cure. I will talk about another simple method next time.

Did you go over your books? I mean did you think of how you had accomplished and fulfilled your last year’s resolutions, the decisions you had taken?
Did you really fulfill them? Or did you find out that they had just remained words?
Whatever your results, please take a moment and make a commitment. I would like you to take some decisions on how you are going to treat yourself.
On how you are going to treat our planet.
Yes, I said planet. You can do a lot to preserve it. It is the year in which you should be very careful about it. What do you think you can do to help our separation of the garbage. Paper on one side, plastic on another, glass on a third side, metals on a forth side. You may even find more items to separate. Maybe that in your community you will find containers for the various kinds of waste.
Something else: Be careful with how you buy your food stuff. When you buy, for example, bananas, you can take them home just as they are. Whatever can be carried without paperbags or other envelopments, is a contribution to a better place.
Don’t buy plastic cups and dishes. They cannot be re-used and are therefore anti-ecological.
When you can walk as the distance is short, please do it. Walking is good for your health and preserves the air. Every person who leave their car at home, contribute to a better quality of the air.
Use public transportation where available.
Don’t buy magazines you do’t really need or read.So many trees are cut that could be preserved.
A part from the contribution to our planet’s health, you also save money. Very often, one does not think of this, but if you add all the waste in your daily life, you will see that, if you are more conscious in your habits, you may save a bunch of money. For yourself but also for the community.
If you take into consideration these few resolutions that are so helpful, you will agree that they do not cost you anything. They will make you feel better about yourself. This turns out to be of help for your anxiety. Feeling better about oneself, is a big contribution to mental health. You see, you can improve your life by living more consciously. Isn’t this wonderful?
You can make a list of what you are going to change in your daily life and what will contribute to the betterment of our planet’s health. It is a question of responsibility
We are all invited to do our part. Thanks for your help.

First of all, be aware that the most important vitamins your body needs when it is anxious, are those of the B-group.
They all have a strong impact on your psyche, on your mental state and on your nervous system.
Don’t forget that anxiety may be a normal reaction in stressful situations. It only becomes a problem if you feel it all day long. Then it is no longer a normal reaction but has become a habit. Your anxiety may become the fear of an anxiety attack. and so on and so forth.
Then it becomes an unwanted reaction and perpetuates itself. It has to come to an end. Otherwise you might harm yourself in your overall health.
In any case, anxiety is not a good companion. A part from a healthy way of living, you need to give your body the vitamins that it needs to protect you against the negative effects of your anxiety.
The best vitamins are those of the B-group and I am going to show you why:
Every single vitamin of this group plays a particular part in maintaining your nervous system in good health.
Vitamin B1: It is also called thiamine. This vitamin improves your mood. It is important in keeping the heart and the nervous system run normally.
A lack of this vitamin can cause irritability. Sometimes it also influences the energy level.
Vitamin B2 is also called riboflavin. It is required by the body to produce anti-stress hormones. It also helps to release energy stored in food. Furthermore, it is needed for the metabolism of proteins.
Vitamin B3. Another name for this vitamin is niacin. Its deficiency causes mental instability. Anxiety and stress can cause skin-related problems. This vitamin provides a protection against skin-problems and inflammation.
Vitamin B5. Again, this vitamin helps the body produce anti-stress hormones.
As anxiety is strongly related to stress, the lack of these vitamins could cause your anxiety to show up more often.
Vitamin B6 also know as pyridoxine has a role in keeping your nervous system functioning properly. If you are lacking of a sufficient coverage of B6, you might experience anxiety or even depression. Insomnia is also related to its lack as is irritability.

.
Vitamin B12 is playing a big role in providing the necessary brain chemicals that make you feel good. This vitamin is also essential for the production of red blood cells.
There exist two other types of vitamin B that are not yet taken into consideration and I therefore am not able to comment on.
You see, every single vitamin B is involved in the functioning of the nervous system which on its part is involved in the good mood or in irritability.
Most of these vitamins are available in their natural form. They can be found in the food. If you are a vegan, you have to take B12 as a supplement because this vitamin is mainly present in meat or in other animal proteins. There are many sources for the whole group of B vitamins. They go from germs, to peanuts, to pork and brown rice for the B1, to milk, yoghurt, avocados, beef liver for the B2, from chicken, potatoes, sunflower seeds for B3, from eggs, avocados, nuts, green vegetables for the B5, from bananas, fish, chicken, seeds in general and cabbage for the vitamin B6 to all animal proteins for the vitamin B12.
You can certainly cover your needs in vitamin B if you take into consideration the various food stuff available in your area. By eating the right food you can protect yourself against anxiety. If you already suffer from anxiety, you can lessen its frequency or intensity by eating the appropriate food.
