Category: Spiritual Tap-Along

The reflection for today’s tap along is, “Help me to remember that my words and actions serve as a model for others, even when that is not my specific intention.”

We are not responsible for what others think, feel, and do, but our words and actions do impact those around us. It is good to remember that our actions help to guide the thoughts, words, and actions of other people.

Seeing Beauty
(audio 3m35s)

I am not responsible for the choices of others…I am not responsible for others’ actions…I am not responsible for the thoughts of others…But I do impact those around me…In the words I say…In the actions I take…There are times I do this publicly…Where I take a stand to intentionally be a model…It’s good to encourage others…And to push others…To see things differently…And to think in new ways…But I do this more than just when I do it publicly…I do this more than when I do it just intentionally…It happens all the time…In my thoughts and words…Even when I think I’m not being public…I am being noticed…It’s good I take responsibility…For how my words and actions impact others…Even when I don’t think I’m being noticed…My words and actions impact others…And I define who I want to be…Through my words and actions…It’s important to remember that all of my actions…Not just my public actions…Are impacting others…And it’s good I take responsibility for them…

Beauty is everywhere. We just forget to notice it.

When we see beauty it lifts our spirits and brightens our mood.

When we see beauty it helps to remind us of what is truly important.

When we see beauty it moves us into the present moment.

Today we tap to see beauty in big and small ways.

Seeing Beauty
(audio 2m42s)

Help me to see beauty today…Help me to see beauty in big and small things…Help me to recognize the beauty that’s all around me…In big and small ways…Help me to see beauty… When I recognize beauty, I’m more connected…When I recognize beauty, I’m more whole…When I recognize beauty, I’m fuller…When I recognize beauty, it pulls me into the present moment…When I recognize beauty, it helps me to be here today…Beauty is everywhere…In big sunsets…In recognizing the way that tea leaves have collected in the bottom of my cup…I give myself permission to recognize beauty in all things today…To not be in a rush…And to savor each moment…

Today I tap to and reflect on, “Help me to move through my day and all my interactions with grace and ease.”

When I am at ease and with grace I am able to accept others and situations for what they are. This helps me to keep my emotions in check and make better choices.

Full Of Grace
(audio 2m15s)

I really admire grace…I really admire people who can move with grace…Who can see things for what they truly are…Not overreacting…And not dismissing what is important…But taking no matter what comes…For what it really is…Today, I want to act with grace…Regardless what surprises arise…That I can be in a place…In the space to respond to it easily…Seeing it for what it really is…Not making it too big…Not making it too small…Not thinking, it’s going to take over the rest of my life…No matter what comes my way today…I want to approach it with grace…

Most if the time I do a great good in offering help to others (maybe even to a fault). I am not so good at accepting help. If feels like I am failing and letting myself down.

Today we are reflecting on “Help me to be open to be help to others. Help me to be open to the help I need graciously.”

As I write this I have just finished recording this audio and feel so at peace. Take the time to tap to this. It will set you up for success.

Being Helpful And Accepting Help
(time 4m58s)

I want to be helpful today…I want to be able to recognize the needs around me…I want to be able to respond lovingly to those who need help…To do it in such a way that I’m truly helpful…And to do it in a way where I’m not taking on their burden…To do it in a way that I’m not taking on their responsibility…To do it in a way that I’m not demeaning them or dismissing them in the way that I offer help…I want to be present and loving…To truly see what others need…In a heartfelt and generous way…There are going to be times today where I need help… And I really struggle with receiving help…When I am helped, I feel like I’m failing…When I am helped, I feel like I’ve let myself down…When I am helped, I sometimes feel like I am a burden to others…I very graciously want to help…I love being helpful…Let me be as gracious in receiving help…When others help me, I give them the chance to be helpful…When I don’t allow help, not only am I hurting myself…I’m robbing others of the opportunity to be helpful as well…It’s possible for me to be helped…And be responsible…It’s possible for me to be helped…And be competent…It’s possible for me to be helped…And gracious…I want an open heart to receive help today…Receive it graciously… Knowing I can receive help and still be responsible…Nice deep breath…

Sometimes it is very easy to be judgmental of others and ourselves.

Today for your more soul guided tapping we are going to tap on “help me to be gentle and charitable with others and especially gentle with myself”.

Gentle With Others And Self

As I step into today…In a very special way…I want to be gentle with others…Gentle in how I respond…Gentle in how I understand…Gentle in how I interpret their actions…Gentle in the way that I see them…Sometimes I find it so easy to judge…I judge their choices…I judge their lifestyle…I judge their lack of effort…Help me to have gentle, loving eyes today…To see all of those I encounter with love…I give myself permission to be gentle with myself…To be understanding with myself…To be easy with myself…In the choices that I make…In the choices I don’t make…In the words that I say…In the actions I take…I choose to be gentle with myself…I choose to be gentle with myself…When I find it hard to be gentle with myself…I choose to be gentle with myself…When I find it hard to be gentle with myself…For being gentle with myself…I give myself permission today…To be gentle with myself…

There is a middle place we are looking for when it comes to humility. We want to be able to acknowledge the work we have done and progress we have made with out over doing it. We also want to not dismiss and denigrate the work we are doing.

Today I tapped to find that middle ground.

Humble Tap-Along

Let me know how this worked for you.

I love and accept myself…I love and appreciate myself…Even when it’s hard for me to love and accept myself…I love and accept myself anyway…I’m happy with what I’ve achieved…I’ve worked very hard to achieve what I’ve achieved… And sometimes, it’s easy to get wrapped up in my own achievement…Failing to recognize all that had a hand in that…I’m not trying to hide my achievement…I’m not trying to say my achievement isn’t worthy…It’s good that I recognize my achievement now and how hard I’ve worked…But I’m just looking for that middle ground…I’m looking for that space…Where I recognize my work…And I recognize whose shoulders I stand upon…I recognize the power of inspiration in my work…All of those unseen forces behind the scenes that are setting me up for success…Humility does not mean self-deprecation… Being humble does not mean I ignore my work…I’m just simply trying to find the middle ground…Where I recognize my work and my achievement…I give credit to those around me who have helped…Because when I give credit, it makes it easier for me to access that help in the future…
