Using Emotional Freedom Technique tapping for road rage
When was the last time you cursed under your breath? More than likely, it was when you were on the road. It is crazy how sitting behind the wheel can throw our manners out the window.
You may say, well, I’m not an aggressive driver at all. I sometimes get angry seeing bad drivers, but I don’t exhibit road rage myself. Welcome to the club!
Road rage is about engagement. Even if you are not the one starting it, an aggressive driver can pull you into an argument or say something really rude. They may just drive away after that, but leave you feeling upset for the rest of the day.
In some instances, not engaging aggressive drivers can make all the difference between being safe or not. You never know what might set off someone into doing something stupid.
But the worse thing is, road rage creeps up suddenly. Like a car from your blind spot. Since you are already in a heightened state of mental activity during driving, it is easy to get roused into aggression. So even if you were not the one starting it, you could get involved easily.
Tapping can help calm down this knee-jerk reaction that is road rage.
This script is not so much about how to stop other drivers from being aggressive. It is about how you can drive with a calmer state of mind, so follies of other drivers don’t bother you all that much.
So even when someone tries to provoke you into acting impulsively like pulling over and getting even, you can choose not to engage them.
This tapping script can be used in conjunction with the one about taking the stress out of your driving commute. Also, if getting angry is the main problem, you could tap through this anger management tapping script.
EFT tapping set up
Karate chop
Even though it is other drivers on the road who bring out the worst in me, I want to remain calm and focus more on the road and on how I am driving.
Even though reckless drivers lurk everywhere, and I so want to set them straight, even so I choose to remain calm and detached, for my sake and for those waiting for me at home. I choose to reach my destination safely and sanely.
Even though aggressive drivers dare me to show them my worst side, I choose to shrug off their coarse behaviour remembering that winning on the road actually comes from NOT competing.

You may need to use this script a few times for full effect. This is because road rage is not really a feeling you are trying to reframe, but a behavioral pattern. It is like a habit. It may take a few repetitions for this new behaviour to become ingrained.
For a few days, tap through the script before heading out. Then tap through it any day you find yourself relapsing. The changes with EFT usually come so silently that your new behaviour doesn’t surprise you. It may seem like you’ve always been relaxed during driving. Aggression, who, me? Nah!
