Have you ever experienced the heart palpitations, sweaty palms, and dry mouth that come along with the fear of speaking? Whether it is the fear of speaking to an audience, or the fear of asking for what you want in your relationship, or the fear of expressing your opinion around other people, or the fear of being heard in your business, these fears can stop us in our tracks.
When I first learned Tapping, more than 10 years ago, I was working for an organization, and there was a panel presentation that I attended. At the end of the presentation, they asked for questions. I had something I wanted to ask and I could already feel my heart racing and I was certain my voice would be shaky. So I discreetly started Tapping. After just 2 rounds, my hand shot up into the air – almost on its own, and I was called on. I heard this calm voice ask a question and I realized it was me. And then, the biggest miracle, I heard the answer. And I didn’t spend any time reliving the moment. I was able to be present in the moment. That’s the moment I decide to become a Tapping practitioner.
My own fear of speaking had its roots in Kindergarten. Yes, really! Tapping gave me my voice back!
Over the years, I have gone deeper into healing the multi-generational fear of having a voice and speaking my truth.
