There is a process (EFT – Emotional Freedom Technique or Tapping) that can be used. Normally, the process would involve or be directed at one person but – seeing as there is a movement of many people, maybe each one of us can practise a tapping moment on behalf of the whole. Maybe we could do it once a day for the next three days. We could even do it at the same time (except then it starts getting complicated.)</span></span></span></p><p class=""><span style="color: #000080;" class=""><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva;" face="verdana, geneva" class=""><span style="font-size: small;" size="2" class="">How to do it? One possibility would be to feel as if you are one of those or an individual part of that group of people. Sit quietly for a minute or two, then 'Be' that person, just while you tap. The process and how to do it is below. I’ll give a ‘loose’ description first and then follow that with three specific suggestions. You may well come up with your own ideas on what to say.
