Life's a Journey: EFT Smooths the Way
The Wrong Side of the Bed

Hello friends,
Some days, I just wake up grumpy. Sooner or later, I shift. Sometimes I know why I’m grumpy, other times I don’t. Feeling grumpy is information to ourselves: something we are thinking or trying to not think about is not serving us. Once we figure out the disconnect, the grumpiness will shift. So let’s try this.

Enjoy.
Set-Up Phrase:
Even though I feel unsettled, I love and accept myself deeply.
Even though I feel reactive, I love and accept and forgive myself completely.
Even though there are things I don’t want to think about, I love and forgive myself deeply.

Eyebrow: This feeling of unsettled
Side of the Eye: This feeling of anxiety
Under the Eye: What the heck is wrong?
Nose: This off-center feeling
Chin: I wonder what’s wrong?
Collarbone: This feeling of off-center
Under the arm: This feeling of anxiety
Head: All these reactive feelings
Eyebrow: But what if …
Side of the Eye: I choose how to feel?
Under the Eye: What if I choose to feel calm?
Nose: Feeling calm is a choice
Chin: No way! I won’t choose calm and you can’t make me
Collarbone: All these feelings
Under the arm: But what if feelings are merely information
Head: All these feelings

Eyebrow: But what if …
Side of the Eye: I choose how to feel?
Under the Eye: What if I choose to feel calm?
Nose: Feeling calm is a choice
Chin: I can choose calm and also observe my other feelings.
Collarbone: I am calm.
Under the arm: And my other feelings are information.
Head: I am calm.

Thank you.
