A Simple Tool for Big Emotions: An Introduction to Tapping PH327

What do you do when your mind is racing, emotions feel overwhelming, and meditation doesn’t help? In this episode of Pursuing Health, I share a personal moment of overwhelm and the simple, unexpected technique that helped me regulate my nervous system in just minutes. When sitting quietly felt impossible, I turned to Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), or tapping—and experienced a powerful shift. I’ll explain why meditation isn’t always the right tool in intense moments, the science behind tapping, and guide you through a short practice you can follow along with in real time. If you’ve tried tapping, I’d love to hear what you think. Please share your thoughts with info@pursuing-health.com , or connect with me on Instagram @JulieFoucher .
