What is Tapping?

Tapping—also known as EFT tapping—is a mind‑body technique where you gently tap on specific acupressure points on the face and upper body while focusing on an emotion, thought, or physical sensation. It’s based on the idea that stimulating these meridian points helps calm the nervous system and reduce the body’s stress response. People often pair the tapping with simple phrases that acknowledge what they’re feeling, which helps the brain process the emotion more effectively. Many find that after a few rounds, the intensity of stress, anxiety, or discomfort noticeably decreases.
