EFT Tapping Script
Healing Self-Love & Self-Esteem
(Use a calm, steady tone. Tap 5–7 times on each point. Take a slow breath between rounds.)
Step 1 – Identify the Core Feeling
Before tapping, rate the intensity (0–10):
-
“I don’t feel good enough.”
-
“I struggle to love myself.”
-
“I compare myself and feel less than.”
-
“I’m too hard on myself.”
Note the number.
Setup Statement (Karate Chop Point)
(Tap on the side of the hand.)
Repeat 3 times:
“Even though I struggle to fully love and accept myself,
I deeply and completely accept myself.”
“Even though part of me feels not good enough,
I choose to be open to self-compassion.”
“Even though I have carried self-doubt for a long time,
I am willing to see myself differently.”
Take a deep breath.

“I am worthy.”
Take one final deep breath.
Now re-rate the intensity (0–10).
Notice the shift.
