Tapping into Serenity

In working with a phone client, we discovered an effective way to promote serenity. I had been working with this person on fear issues and we had been making progress. In spite of the progress, there were still some persistent fears. She reported waking frequently in the middle of the night with fears. These fears would escalate and grow in her mind preventing her from sleeping well.

After tapping on those specific fears, I was led to employ the Serenity Prayer, which is commonly associated with 12 step groups. I personally have used this prayer for years and never have been in any 12 step groups. I just find that it is a terrific, universal prayer for realignment.

In doing the tapping, I suspended using the Setup (we had been tapping for some time already). I went straight to the Eyebrow Point and began:

Eyebrow—Grant me the grace to accept with Serenity…

Side of Eye—the things I cannot change…

Under eye—The courage to change…

Under nose —the things I can…

Under mouth — And the wisdom

Collar bone — to know the one from the other.

My client responded beautifully to this and it was a great way to finish our session. I have to say that having made it up on the spot, I also borrowed the benefits of this. I now use this one for myself, as well as my clients.
