[ChatAction] Action For Peace

[Diane diskid.22]

Hi Chat Action People

This is just a suggestion but – in order to support and work towards a peaceful transition, here is an idea. 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.)

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. (What do I know – I’m just a little British person hahaha)

Always start your session with a sentence - "Even though........ I have this problem/I'm really disturbed by the state of our nation" – followed by "I completely and deeply love and accept myself"

Then using two or even three fingers, tap the karate chop point (the side of your hand which you would use to do a karate chop) whilst repeating the sentence three times. "Even tho......... Even tho........ Even tho........." Then go round the tapping points, tapping with two fingers and using a shorter ‘reminder phrase’ ("I’m really disturbed.") There are eight tapping points. They are: -

* Eyebrow (inner)
* Side of eye
* Under eye
* Under nose
* Below mouth/chin
* Collarbone
* Under arm (bra level)
* Top of head/fontanelle

There is a very simple video to watch if you feel it would help as an introductionso you can do it alongside. This is Gary Craig (the guy who refined the skill after it was invented by Roger Callaghan). Here is the link (pics added later - not so well done)

Three suggested sentences: -

Even though I’m really angry about the result of the election, I deeply and completely love and accept myself and I believe everything will work out OK.

Even though I truly believe the result of the election was fixed, I deeply and completely love and accept myself and I believe everything will work out OK.

Even though I’m angry that Biden will take over from Trump and I don’t want that, I deeply and completely love and accept myself and I believe everything will work out OK.

Loads of love and peace for you/us all
