Do you feel SAFE in your body?
Say aloud: I feel SAFE in my body. How TRUE does it feel in your body on a scale of 0-10 where 0 means “not true at ALL” and 10 means “I feel totally safe.” Until we feel safe — truly SAFE — nothing else will fall into place. We can’t feel abundant, get consistent…

When Your Emotions Keep Dropping: Return Without Forcing Positivity
You may understand emotional regulation, do your tapping, and genuinely feel better—then suddenly find yourself afraid, angry, discouraged, or caught in a thought you believed you had cleared.
