In this week's podcast we are answering a question from our inbox on EFT Tapping and Anxiety and getting stuck on  the words on love and acceptance in the set-up statement:“Much of my anxiety is related to guilt over past actions where I was selfish and put my own needs before my family. In unexpected moments, when I think of what I did, the anxiety beast rises and sits in my solar plexus hot and alive and can spiral into panic if I let it. In those moments, I use EFT to calm down, but can’t get past the words ”….love myself deeply and completely“. How can I love myself when I feel guilty?”- See more at: http://www.anxietyslayer.com/journal/eft-tapping-getting-stuck-on-self-acceptance.html
