Top of Head Point

Top of Head Point

 

 

Top of Head Point: (TH) Directly on top of head.  This is an important energy center since many meridians meet at the top of the head. It is also in the area of the 7th. or Crown Chakra, which is a spiritual energy center. Some say that stimulating this area wakes up the entire energy system and encourages the body-mind to pay attention to what we are about to address. Releases: Inner critic, ‘gerbil wheel’ thinking, lack of focus. Allows: Spiritual connection, insight, intuition, focus, wisdom, spiritual discernment, clarity. (‘Hundred Meeting Points’ Meridian)

 

 

 


 

Heart Centering

Heart Centering

 

Heart Center: Place both hands over heart (one hand on top of the other). I think this is a great way to end a tapping round. You are making a direct connection between mind, body and spirit.  It immediately calms your entire body. Research by the Institute for HeartMath in California has shown that the heart is the most powerful generator of electromagnetic energy in the human body. The magnetic field produced by the heart is more than 5000 times greater in strength than the field generated by the brain.
