Tapping on Healing and Clearing a Traumatic Event

Written by: Nick Ortner

For many of us, traumatic events don’t just happen “once”. Yes, they happen once in “real” time, but we replay them, hold on to them, and run them again and again and again.

When we let go of the past, when we truly heal the past, everything can change.

Watch this 12 minute video where I tap with someone on a traumatic event, the ensuing anger and more. Pay attention to how the anger automatically shifts and turns into gratitude when we tap on it. It’s a powerful example of how when we let go of a difficult emotion, positive emotions come flooding in.

As you watch, tap along with us, even if this isn’t your exact issue, you’ll be surprised as to what happens when you tap along! 🙂

    It started with amazing Mike Dooley to “show the way” to Nick, even if tapping itself was not new to me, but now to participate makes it a “hurray” experience!

  3. Sheila says:

    I suggest those traumatized by this video tap to release the injury. Another suggestion is to “be” the abuse victim and assume its pain prayerfully, thanking God for letting you, who can understand what is happening and withstand the pain, take it from the original victim.

    You are a wonderful human being Nick Ortner!

    I can’t believe the difference Tapping has made. Even though i wasn’t able to do 2 sessions a day! Eternally grateful to my Chiropractor for sharing your post on her FB page Looking forward to your next summit

  6. Carolyn says:

    Thank you! I am always amazed what comes up when I follow one of the tapping videos! Be Blessed!

  7. Avis says:

    Always love your tapping videos. Do you ever do tapping for older people, living alone, with limited resources? Thank you for being you.

  8. Dave Mann says:

    I am tapping because of the abuse on Brittany Spears that the media does to her. Why can’t they just leave her alone.

  9. Lloyd says:

    To recall an event and experience some associated emotion and then to deal with it in such a positive way is so calming and relaxing.

    Hi Nick, while this is a good illustration of how tapping can help a traumatized person, I would have appreciated a warning that this was going to involve the recounting of a graphic and terrible event. Because I wanted to hear the words you use for the tapping I tried to listen to most of the video but avoid the really bad details. But I didn’t succeed and now i have this gruesome, painful image inside. I’ll never make this mistake again, but maybe you can help others in the future by providing a warning. Thank you!

    I have seen all three of these ladies in videos from Nick and The Tapping Solution. They are all so courageous and inspiring! As an animal lover I felt such grief and anger for what happened to the dog and it brought up how scared I was when my dogs nearly died from an overdose of pills the puppy had gotten into. I wish love and healing for all these wonderful ladies.

    I was balling like a baby.

  13. Ariel says:

    Incredible! Thank you so much for sharing this. It was so lovely to tart my morning with this miracle.

  14. Kit says:

    Fantastic! It all makes sense,thank you for sharing

    Wow! To see how effective the Tapping was for each individual person was so amazing. I also felt a huge release of emotion over a few different traumas I have experienced in my own life- many I still need to work on, but I feel they are something that I CAN and WILL work on over time. I also feel like I’m no longer alone in my grief. Thank you Nick!
