Shopping Cart Checkout →In today’s society, there are reminders everywhere about how one should look, how much one should weigh, who is good-looking and who’s not. It is hard to deal with this social stigma. You cannot control it if people judge you because of your weight because they have been taught to think this way.
The idea of this tapping is to detach from their thoughts about your weight. And to detach from your thoughts about what others might be thinking of your weight. This will benefit you because it will free your mind to reach out to people with your best skills and talents, instead of having 50-60% of your brain power consumed with thoughts about their impression of your weight.

Karate chop
Even though I feel hurt and ashamed when people judge me because of my weight, I accept myself for feeling this way. I’m only human.
Even though wherever I turn, I see reminders of how I should be thin and how I should be losing weight, I now want to turn my attention inward, where I can assess the needs of my body without judgment.
Even though this social stigma of being overweight hampers my style, and keeps me from becoming all that I can be, wouldn’t it be nice if I could look past people’s judgmental ways and be the best I can be anyway?
Round 1
Eyebrow I want to be invisible. I want to hide.
Side of the eye I dread being in groups, I feel like I am standing out.
Under the eye Every time someone looks in my direction,
Under the nose I secretly beat myself up for being out of shape.
Chin What must they think of me?
Collar bone Being around slim people really brings out my insecurities.
Under the arm I remind myself to be tough and to look at my inner beauty,
Top of the head but honestly, I’m getting tired of this “inner beauty” crap.
Round 2
Eyebrow Why can’t I be beautiful inside and out?

Side of the eye I dread family outings,
Under the eye I dread reunions, parties and all kind of social events
Under the nose where I will come face to face with another person.

Round 5

Collar bone even enjoyed it, without having to run for cover.
