Editorial Review:

Never has it been so effortless to activate your inner power and resiliency than with the remarkable technique known as "resource tapping." Dr. Laurel Parnell's book and companion audio program Tapping In make available for the first time self-guided instruction in this revolutionary EMDR-based tool. With step-by-step instruction in bilateral stimulation (a core principle of EMDR), Tapping In teaches this clinically recognized system for tapping both sides of the body to release emotional and physical distress, build resilience, aid in healing, and calm the body on a deep physiological level. A world-renowned expert in the field of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Dr. Parnell guides students through a series of practical methods to access latent positive resources for building internal strength and increasing the sense of safety. Tapping In uses personal accounts and innovative principles that show how to: * Cope more effectively with anxiety, creative blocks, insomnia, and other stressful situations * Lift the spirit by finding joy, gratitude, and freedom within * Return to wholeness by supporting the body's ability to heal * Dialogue with your "inner mentor" for everyday guidance "We have a natural healing system ready to restore us to balance," explains Dr. Parnell. Now, this pioneering healer shares her breakthrough tools to resolve inner wounds and reach our highest potential.

As a therapist I encourage other therapists and clients to make use of this valuable tool to further their work. As a parent I encourage parents to use this resource to help get through stressful times and to assist your children with their challenges.

A very accessible manual for a very powerful technique:

Briefly put, "Tapping In" is a wonderful book, an accessible description of how to use the "tapping" part of EMDR to find and strengthen the already existing resources within oneself. Dr. Parnell details the process of using EMDR's bi-lateral stimulation (the sequential tapping on both sides of the body) to do this "resourcing" work, and then gives a myriad of suggestions on how to apply this to different situations. It's not at all a complex process she's describing, and unlike EMDR, which requires a... more info
