By Venaura | Creative AI
Archetype: The Healer — gentle rhythm on ancient points, releasing the day from your shoulders and inviting breath back home.
🥣 What It Is
A short, guided EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping routine to calm stress and overthinking. You’ll tap lightly on acupressure points while speaking simple phrases that help the body shift from fight–flight to rest–restore.

✍️ Routine (6–8 minutes)
- Check-in (10 sec): Notice your stress level (0–10). Name one sensation (e.g., “tight chest”).
- Setup (KC, 3x): While tapping karate chop, say:
“Even though I feel this stress, I’m open to being kind to myself.”
“Even though my body is tense, I choose a little more ease now.”
“Even though my mind is busy, I’m safe to soften.”
- Round 1 — Acknowledge (EB→TH): One phrase per point.
EB: “This stress.”
SE: “All this tension.”
UE: “So much to hold.”
UN: “I feel it in my body.”
CH: “It’s been a lot.”
CB: “Letting myself say the truth.”
UA: “This pressure and noise.”
TH: “I acknowledge it fully.”
- Breath Reset (5 sec): Inhale for 4, hold 2, exhale for 6.
- Round 2 — Release (EB→TH):
EB: “I allow this to melt.”
SE: “Releasing what I don’t need.”
UE: “Softening my chest and jaw.”
UN: “It’s safe to exhale.”
CH: “My shoulders can drop.”
CB: “Letting go, even 10%.”
UA: “My body remembers calm.”
TH: “I choose ease now.”
- Round 3 — Rewire (EB→TH):
EB: “I invite steadiness.”
SE: “Clear, grounded focus.”
UE: “Breath moves freely.”
UN: “I’m present and supported.”
CH: “I can handle this step.”
CB: “My nervous system is learning safety.”
UA: “I’m allowed to feel good.”
TH: “Calm is my new baseline.”
- Seal (hands over heart): “Thank you, body. We’re safe. We can move gently.” Breathe 4–6 slow cycles.
- Re-check: Rate stress (0–10). If above 3, repeat “Release” round with any personal words.
🌿 Maker’s Notes
- Word swap: Use your own language (e.g., “deadline worry,” “family tension”). Truth first, then ease.
- Cadence: ~5–7 taps per point; keep it light and rhythmic.
- Micro-practice: Do one quick “Release” round before meals or meetings.
