How to use Emotional Freedom Technique when you're feeling insulted

EFT Tapping when you're feeling hurt by what someone said

The other day something happened that left me feeling upset and angry.

I was out for my daily walk in the evening when a bunch of acquaintances passed by. There was some chit-chat and one of them shot a taunt aimed directly at me.

I was taken aback, but didn’t respond mainly because of the shock. I chose not to make a big deal of it, but those words have lingered in my mind.

The one question that’s bothering me is, how to get even, or get over such situations? Sound familiar?

Rude remarks from undiscerning people are all too common at workplaces, social gatherings and even coming from friends. So if any such incident happened in your life, even if long ago, and you cannot shrug it off, this EFT Tapping will help you. It has helped me for sure.


EFT tapping set up

Karate chop

Even though I just can’t get over those rude words they blurted out, I want to drop this matter like hot coal instead of carrying around the hurt till eternity.

Even though I hate that person for saying those things, and I’m frothing at the leash to get even, all this mental whirring is wasting so much of my energy that I can use doing enjoyable things instead. It sounds difficult, but I do want to feel peaceful.

Even though I’m still in shock about how someone can say such things, I’m open to relaxing a little bit and walking away without feeling like a loser who cannot shoot back.

Under the eye    Some people lack even basic etiquette.

Under the nose    They just can’t seem to control

Eyebrow    look like idiots!

Side of the eye    The worse thing is,

Under the eye    they don’t even realize they are being rude!

Under the nose    I want to teach them a lesson.

Chin    So that they remember

Collar bone    not to mess with me.

Under the arm    I want to lash out at them,

Eyebrow    whenever I get a chance.

Side of the eye    But keeping scores is a tiring job.

Under the eye    I want to be carefree

Under the nose    instead of letting their words get under my skin.

Under the arm    keep reminding me to settle scores.

Top of the head    Now before you go about telling me

EFT tapping round 5

Eyebrow    what an emotional ninny I am,

Side of the eye    Now you’ll tell me

Under the eye    to “just ignore” their comments.

Under the nose    Why should I always be the one

Top of the head    in accordance with my highest good and happiness.

EFT tapping round 8

Eyebrow    So I don’t have to walk around fearing

Side of the eye   what someone might say to upset me.

Under the eye    Relaxing this tightness in my jaw and my shoulders.

Under the nose    If there is something I need to say

Under the arm    letting it slip out of my mind

Top of the head    like sand slipping out of my hand.

EFT tapping round 9

Eyebrow    I’m letting this hurt go.

Side of the eye    I don’t need to carry it around

Under the eye    as a souvenir of what someone said to me.

Under the nose    I’m releasing all the stress

Chin    those two-penny worth of words have caused.

Collar bone    I’m releasing this urge to get even.

Under the arm    It’s just not worth my time.

Top of the head    I’m moving on, free and confident!
