The question was…

When Tapping was first discovered, what was it first used to treat?

Correct Answer: B. A Severe Fear of Water

The Story Behind the Answer

In the 1980s, Dr. Roger Callahan was working with a patient named Mary who had a lifelong water phobia. Nothing they’d tried so far had worked. She just couldn’t shake the severe fear and couldn’t even bathe her children without debilitating anxiety. In a moment of inspiration, Dr. Callahan asked her to tap under her eye. She went straight to a nearby pool to test it, and for the first time in her life, felt no fear. Her phobia vanished. And the rest is history.

Until next time… Keep Tapping!
