Tap Into Empowerment

“I change myself, I change the world.” Gloria Anzaldua

For the past 5-6 years, since originally reading that quote, it has stayed with me. So many of us want to change the world and the number of ideas for how to accomplish that are just as plentiful. I happen to believe we should take care of our own proverbial skeletons before helping others, and that change can then be affected from there. It’s been a guiding thought on my own path to empowerment, and worth sharing with all of you.

“Little drops of water wear down big stones. ” – Russian Proverb

Another sentiment befitting the ideas embodied at UnTapU. EFT is a small, simple, easy method to employ – but it creates a large, lasting, far-reaching effect. It does so with little or no pain (in the case of traumas, any remembering can be painful), and the ripple effect of working on one issue can be felt across all aspects of our lives. The gentle yet powerful image of a simple water drop reminds us all of the power of small changes, of each one of us to do great things – to be empowered.

That is why UnTapU was the name chosen for this EFT practice. “Tapping into” a resource is a common idea, one that means we can now gain from something that was previously unavailable for any number of reasons. I feel that we are each one of our own untapped resources, that we have all the tools we need to be everything we want, to have everything we want in life. We have those things but don’t always learn how to use them, how to be ourselves, or how to feel empowered.

Through the use of EFT, we can each become empowered – we come into our truest, best versions of ourselves. In sessions, you learn to “untap” YOU, just as you would in class but also as you would through traditional counseling or talk therapy, or through massage therapy. Through tapping, you tap into you, tap into empowerment, and not only become the person you know you truly are, but also begin to live the life you truly want.

I’m still learning and growing UnTapU, adding to my site here and new opportunities are constantly presenting themselves to me, just as new people are as well. So check things out, comment, make suggestions, let me know what you think!
