Hello,
Claire here with the Tapping Almanac and safe to shine.
We will be tapping any fears about putting your head above the parapet and being visible.
Last time we tapped for too much,
Too loud,
Too me.
Do check that if you want.
This tapping is for you if you want more confidence and energy as you are visible so that you can shine brightly and share your gifts with the world.
If you don't know the tapping points you can find them easily online or on my tap into your power course here on insight timer or you can simply tap on your sternum or even place one hand on your belly and one hand on your heart.
It all works.
What is most important before tapping is to come into embodied focus so that we are truly in tune with the thing we are tapping about.
So I invite you to begin becoming present to your body in this moment,
In this place.
Let's together shut our eyes,
Lower the center of attention from the head space into the belly space and from there take a few deep breaths,
Softening and lowering.
In-breath,
Space and light into every cell.
Out-breath,
Letting go of that which no longer serves.
In-breath,
Space and light into every cell.
Out-breath,
Letting go of that which no longer serves.
Aware of the support of Mother Earth and the infinity of possibility in the heavens above.
From the heavens through your crown to your heart and your belly,
Know that everything you need is already present for feeling safe to shine.
Let's start by tuning into how safe you do feel to shine.
Are there fears about being shut down or disregarded?
Maybe you've been put down in the past when you have stood out.
Trust whatever comes to mind for this tapping and know that you can always go back and tap for your individual circumstances again.
With that awareness of those fears and worries,
Please imagine where they sit on a scale of zero to ten,
Where ten stands for the most intense.
So now we are just measuring the general sense of not feeling safe to shine.
Trust the first thought.
If no number appears,
That's fine too because you'll have a feeling.
And whatever comes up for you,
Know that it is all tappable.
You are allowed to feel safe and shine.
So let's tap together and repeat after me please,
Out loud if possible or in your head,
Tapping on the side of your hand.
Even though I want to shine and feel safe while shining,
It feels safer to stay hidden.
I love and accept myself.
Even though I have so much to offer the world,
It feels scary to be out there.
I love and accept myself.
Even though I'd love to shine,
And part of me knows I can,
I hold back.
I love and accept myself.
Then tap with me around the points,
On the sternum,
Or place one hand on your belly and one hand on your heart and repeat after me.
All these feelings.
All these judgments.
All these fears.
What will people say?
Remembering the times I was put down,
Told to be quiet,
Told to be a good girl or boy,
Told to keep in line,
Afraid to get into trouble,
Afraid of being ridiculed.
So much unkindness in the world.
Told it's safer to keep my head down.
The world is a dangerous place.
It's not safe to shine.
Just check in one hand on the belly,
One hand in the heart.
Of course you can always go and tapping for your fears for specific instances.
Let's carry on.
Crown of the head we'll start.
When I am seen,
I've been ridiculed.
When I've been visible,
I've been teased.
This hurts.
This embarrassment.
This confusion.
So painful.
No wonder it feels better to stay invisible.
Let's tap on the side of the hand again.
Even though part of me is comfortable with being invisible.
That's not what I want anymore.
I choose to shine.
Even though I learnt certain behaviors.
Of course I did.
They made sense.
They no longer fit.
I choose to shine.
Even though it's familiar to stay small and invisible.
It isn't serving my higher self or my dreams and goals.
I choose to shine.
Tapping on the points.
My dreams.
Just vision.
Just have that vision for yourself of something you want to do in the world.
My choice.
My beauty.
My service.
My offerings.
Perhaps they will ridicule.
I choose to hear them but not believe their words.
Sometimes the world is cruel.
But I choose to believe.
I am worthy of shining and showing my self.
I can learn to feel into this feeling of being visible and shining.
Little by little it can become comfortable.
It will.
Choosing to feel safe and shine.
Choosing to shine wherever.
I can do this.
Beautiful.
Now let's take a breath.
Tune into how you're feeling.
One hand on the belly.
One hand on the heart.
Has your number come down?
Let's just check that.
Mine's come down a few notches.
Does your body feel different?
I do hope so.
And again,
This is just a beginning.
Go back.
Tap the instances.
Give your fears,
Your worries,
The judgments,
Numbers on your own level.
And then tap them down.
But for now,
Please join me in a visualization.
Imagine you are in a crowd.
You see a stage or an open space in front of you.
Whichever feels comfortable.
You choose to step into this space and it is safe.
You are seen.
You are safe.
And you shine.
People are looking at you.
You are seen.
You are safe.
And you shine.
Please breathe this feeling in.
All the way into every cell of your body.
Your bones and bone marrow.
Muscles.
Joints.
Organs.
Skin.
Hair.
Filling your cells with this feeling of being safe while shining.
Like a lighthouse.
Strong.
Confident.
Shining your light in the world.
And people see you because they want to see you.
You've got something to offer.
You are a beacon.
Let's take a moment to really imagine yourself radiating out and being seen.
Thank you so much for tapping with me.
I wish you the very best.
And look forward to tapping with you next time in this tapping almanac.
Goodbye for now.
