Tapping Suggestions for Children

Tapping with children suggestion:

I'm a Donna Eden aficionado! Donna has been teaching Energy Medicine for decades. Example: Last weekend my head was clogged. I looked up Donna's thoughts on draining my sinuses. Following her simple instructions, within minutes, my head began to drain (after putting up with 2 weeks of it being clogged!).
While reading I found another of her suggestions. Sorry, I don't know how to shorten this so it will still make sense.
"Tapping the k-27 points (in EFT that is our collarbone points) 'flips' your energies around. It is so simple and unobtrusive to tap or massage K-27 points that you can use this technique in a classroom or business meeting.
"Tapping the K-27 points not only can keep you awake, but also can help you think more clearly {I also suggest the gamut point on the back of the hands}. I have countless times seen children in school, sitting at a desk, looking first at what the teacher is writing on the blackboard and then looking back to the desk. By the time some children's eyes reach the desk, their mind is blank or the information has become totally muddled. The energy circuitry has been disrupted by this up and down movement of the eyes. THIS IS THE MECHANISM THAT ALLOWS EYE MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION TO DISENGAGE A TRAUMATIC STRESS RESPONSE FROM A TRAUMATIC MEMORY, but it can also keep you from absorbing new information.
"By tapping K-27, however, the energy circuitry will hold strong even as the child's eyes move up and down. THIS TECHNIQUE IS ALSO HELPFUL WITH DYSLEXIA AND OTHER LEARNING DISABILITIES, AS WELL AS ANY SITUATION, SUCH AS TENNIS OR READING, WHERE YOUR EYES ARE SHIFTING FROM ONE SPOT TO ANOTHER."
The K-27 points (collarbone tapping spots) are juncture points that affect all of the other meridians.
Donna suggests that one consider tapping with hands crossed over the chest (tap right K-27 with left hand, and tap left one with right hand) because it assists "the energy in crossing over from the left-brain hemisphere to the right side of the body" and vice versa.
For what this is worth......I may just tap with my hands crossed sometimes for the heck of it!

Tapping and ADD - An Older Article


EFT for Christians receives questions from all over the globe about a multitude of tapping subjects.
There is a steady stream of inquiries about tapping with ADD or autistic children. Yesterday this was posted on another EFT board. The technique is old as compared to how we tap today, but there is no reason it cannot be adapted to meet today's tapping standards. The language is a bit different, but perhaps this link will help someone out there!

Since EFT tapping has a calming effect when used, it would make sense that it should be helpful for at least some parts of a child's life who has a hyperactive streak.

In my EFT for Christians YouTube instructional video series, the first 4 YouTubes (Videos 1-4) are about tapping with children. These videos are collected ideas and thoughts about using EFT on the little ones.

Remember, EFT is not a substitute for sound medical advice. Please consult your own personal physician before doing any tapping work.
