9 Ways to Feel Less Stressed During the Pandemic Deborah Donndelinger

We all are feeling stressed right now, with the virus situation unfolding. Tapping is a self-care tool that literally takes minutes and uses the mind-body connection to address stress. If you feel too antsy for meditation or mindfulness practices, you might like tapping. It's tapping on acupressure points on your body while tuning into the issue that's upsetting you. I am sharing these tapping ideas with you because I have seen how it helps people move through the emotional intensity using the wisdom of the mind-body. I am an accredited practitioner and have been working with clients since 2006. In this short book, I share nine detailed tapping scripts that you can use to address different feelings and stressors. They follow the emotional journey I noticed in myself and clients during the first month of the pandemic. The nine are: A vague sense of worry. I'm so stressed. Surviving the shock. Angry at other people. Feeling alarmed in the body. This feels like the plague. Fast adapter, stabilizer, or forecaster. Be selfish with your grief. Feeling hopeful. We are so resilient. Tending to your emotional distress is a act of self-care. With tapping and this book in your hands, you only need a few minutes at a time to find relief.
