A meditation expert shows her stress relief ‘tapping' exercise which you can do in 2 minutes
Business Insider spoke to Jody Shield, a meditation guru and author, about techniques to relieve stress.
She explained her “tapping” exercise, which she uses to “tap on the feelings of being overwhelmed and stressed out.”
The exercise consists of a series of tapping movements on various parts of the body to be done while repeating both negative and positive sentences like “I feel stressed out and overwhelmed” or “I choose to relax.”
Jody Shield is the author of “LifeTonic: A Modern Toolkit to Heal Your Life and Soothe Your Soul” (http://jodyshield.co.uk/book/). She is also a speaker, a meditation ambassador for Lululemon UK, and an intuitive mentor.

thank you
Just tried Planet Ayurveda's stress relief package and I'm loving the results! Their products and treatments truly work wonders
Thanks
Wow, that's incredible!
WOW THIS IS SO POWERFUL WORKED LIKE MAGIC
Good tips for stress release
Or you could challenge and assert yourself towards the system -family, work , partner that’s causing you stress! Feeling overwhelmed may not be your fault and you can endeavor to change the politics.
Thank you Jody
Does not work. I have extremely bad and constant anxiety. I'm mostly bedridden. I've tried this many times as well as emdr for 6 months. I'm living proof this doesn't change emotional state whatsoever. I'm a perfect candidate for this kind of therapy. If it worked you would definitely see results with me. This is pseudoscience. For those who claim in works that's the placebo effect and you didn't have severe nervous system dysfunction or anxiety in the first place.
What a load of sh*te.
Thanks so much this actually does work and you can feel the difference. ❤

Quick turn around from high angst to calm. Need to get back to using this more often. Thanks
This is very fast and adds to the stress. Nick goes more slowly
You’ve just completely taken me out of my panic attack omg
Thank you and bless your soul Jody. You have a very heart warming smile and calming voice. xxx
Omg! My friend told me to check this tapping out! It really surprised me how much it helped my anxiety! But I'm puzzled how it works! 🤔 ❤
My therapist told me to give this a go and quite frankly it's not working for me I'm very happy that this is working for other people but I don't think it's my cup of tea
Are you able to just do tapping without saying anything or does it only work if you do that
