I don’t like to rush. I know lots of people who seem to do everything fast. They wait until the last minute to get started with things then have to hurry to complete them on time (if they complete them on time). I prefer a slow and steady pace rather than a periodically rushed pace. It’s not that I can’t hurry if the situation calls for it. I just prefer to plan far enough ahead so I don’t have to. While I may be comfortable being slow and steady, that doesn’t stop other people from making fun of me.
If you have been following along with the animal theme, the tapping that follows is inspired by the snail.
Setup: (Karate Chop Point) – Even though I’m slow as a snail, I deeply and completely love and accept myself. Even though rushing or hurrying isn’t in my nature, I choose to love and accept my own speed. Even though I am uncomfortable zipping around like everyone around me, I love myself completely.
Eyebrow…I’m slow
Side of Eye…It takes a long time for me to get anywhere
Under the Eye…In reality, I’m ok with my speed
Under the Nose…It feels right to me
Chin…I like following my inner guidance
Collarbone…But when I watch everyone else
Under the Arm…I sometimes feel inadequate
Top of Head…I sometimes feel inferior
Eyebrow…I don’t like those feelings
Side of Eye…Going fast may be good for other people
Under the Eye…And it may not even be as good for all of them as they think
Under the Nose…I am different
Chin…I have may own pace
Collarbone…My pace is the best one for me
Under the Arm…When I feel rushed
Top of Head…I choose to remember the perfection of a snail’s pace for that snail.
Stay tuned. More animal inspired tapping is coming, and watch for my upcoming book, Unleash Your Primal Power: Totem Tapping for Health and Happiness.
