This tapping point is linked to the bladder.
It supports our ability to release irritable feelings so you can reestablish peace, says Blindt.
According to Kahn, its also associated with compassion and clarity.
Under The Eye
This meridian is linked to the stomach.
Tap between your upper lip and nose for self-acceptance, empowerment, and compassion, Kahn adds.
Chin
The spot right below the lower lip is associated with security and self-acceptance, Kahn says.
It releases shame, confusion, and uncertainty.
It supports your self-esteem, confidence, and overall ability to move forward in accepting yourself and others.
Tapping here is a good way to move on from criticism, indecision, and worry, too.
Top Of Your Head
This meridian is linked to many energy circuits.
Its a meeting point of sorts, Blindt says.
It supports your ability to discern, gain clarity and insight, and connect spiritually.
When Should You Tap?
you’re able to tap anytime you want, Kahn says.
Just be aware that you might experience a wide range of emotions as you go through the process.
We can store energy in our bodies for a long time, she says.
Sometimes, while tapping, memories come up that signal where an emotional experience originally stemmed.
It can be powerful and also upsetting when these things arise.
But itll also come as a huge relief.
