The Science: Supporting Your Body's Healing
When you're sick, your body is already working hard to heal. The symptoms you experience—fever, fatigue, congestion—are often signs of your immune system responding. Stress can interfere with this process by diverting resources away from immune function. Anything that reduces stress while you're ill may support faster recovery.
Research also shows that pain and discomfort have psychological components. The brain processes physical symptoms, and that processing can be influenced by stress, attention, and emotional state. Techniques that calm the nervous system, like Tapping, can reduce the subjective experience of symptoms—not by pretending they're not there, but by changing how the brain processes them.
These sessions are designed for when you're sick and just want some relief. They're gentle, they're short, and they target specific symptoms. They work alongside whatever else you're doing—rest, fluids, medication—to help you feel a little better while your body heals.
One session per symptom: Feeling multiple symptoms? Use multiple sessions. Each one is designed to address a specific discomfort, so you can create your own sick-day toolkit.
Real Results
The Stubborn Cold
"I had a cold that wouldn't quit. My head was so stuffed up I couldn't think. I'd tried every decongestant. Someone suggested the congestion Tapping session, and honestly, I was desperate enough to try anything."
Sinus congestion is particularly uncomfortable—the pressure, the inability to breathe properly, the fog it creates.
"I was surprised when I actually felt my sinuses shift during the session. Not completely clear, but definitely better. Enough that I could sleep that night. I used it a few times over the next few days until the cold passed. It didn't cure the cold, but it made it bearable."
The Fever Fog
"When I have a fever, I feel terrible in a way that's hard to describe. Hot and cold, achy, that weird feverish feeling where nothing is comfortable. I just wanted relief."
Fevers are the body's way of fighting infection, but they're deeply unpleasant to experience.
"The fever session was soothing. It didn't break my fever—that's not what it's for—but it helped me relax into it instead of fighting it. I felt more comfortable, less panicked about being sick. I could rest better, which is what my body needed."
Work-From-Home Sick
"I was sick but had a deadline. I couldn't really take the day off. My head was pounding, my throat was raw, and I had to function. I needed something to help me get through the day."
Many people don't have the luxury of full rest when sick. They need to function despite symptoms.
"I did the headache session in the morning and the sore throat one around lunch. They took the edge off enough that I could focus on work. Not 100%, but enough. Having something I could do that actually helped—even a little—made the day manageable."
