EFT Tapping Script
Stress and Anxiety Relief
Preparation
Sit comfortably with your feet grounded.
Place your hands over your heart or on your lap.
Take a slow, deep breath in… and exhale fully.
Bring awareness to your current stress or anxiety.
Notice where it shows up in your body — tension in your chest, tightness in your shoulders, a racing mind, or shallow breathing.
Acknowledge these sensations without judgment, knowing it’s safe to release them.
