Let Me Clear My Throat

When I am working with clients I have them tune into the emotion they want to work on and then ask them to tell me where in their body they feel that emotion.

75% of the time the emotions are located in one of three places. In the stomach, the solar plexus, or the throat.

Typically when emotion anchors in the stomach it is about fear, when in it is solar plexus it is about self esteem, and when it is in the throat is about speaking truth, hearing truth, or both.

We will go after each of these one at a time. This week we are starting with the throat.

This process won’t take a lot of time, but it is important that you give it your undivided attention. I strongly encourage you to get out a piece of paper and write out your answers. This will do two things. First, it will give you greater clarity by writing it out. Second, you might come up with more things to tap for than you have time for right now.

Part 1 – Answer the following questions:

1) What truth about yourself are you afraid to hear?

2) What truth about your future are you afraid to hear?

3) What truth are you afraid to say to yourself?

4) What truth are you afraid to say to someone else?

Part 2 – For each of the answers above complete the following sentences (meaning you will complete these two sentences for each answer):

1) The worst thing that will happen if I speak this truth is…

2) The best thing that will happen if I speak this truth is…

Part 3 – Read your answers out loud and tap

Warning: This is a powerful tool and which will allow you to clear some major issues. There is a part of you that already knows this and that part is trying to talk you out of using this tool. Your inner voice is saying, “I don’t need this….I don’t have time for this….There is nothing left unsaid.”

Thank your inner voice for trying to keep you safe from something that is scary AND then do the exercise.

This is one of the best things you will do for yourself!!
