Key Takeaways
- EFT tapping can help calm anxious animals by tapping on acupressure points while focusing on the animal’s emotions.
- Tapping works remotely and can be done on the human first to address their own anxiety about the situation.
- Consistent tapping before an anxiety-provoking event (like fireworks) can help prevent the animal’s fearful response altogether.
- Moving during a tapping session helps the animal integrate the emotional release.
- Keep tapping statements simple – focusing on “I’m scared” or “I’m sad” makes the biggest impact.
