EFT Journal
If you’ve already worked on your most important issues using EFT to free yourself from emotional blocks, and now are unsure what to tap on next, then perhaps it is time to dig deeper. Keeping a journal is a great way to find issues that are bothering you. Simply write about your life in a notebook. As you do, things will come out… events you’ve forgotten that you still get an emotional charge from, or problems you have that have plagued you for years.
When, during the course of your journal writing, you find yourself aware of an issue that can be helped by EFT (and this includes practically any issue) then at the top of the next page write a word or two about what the issue is. Next write down your setup phrase, and a number from one to ten that indicates how important this issue feels to you. Then go ahead give yourself a round of EFT. Next, reassess the strength of your emotional reaction to the issue, giving it another number.
If you don’t know how to do EFT yet, get a copy of Gary Craig’s FREE pdf e-book about how to transform your life with EFT.
At this point you’ll need to either call this issue “resolved” or go on to tap about the remaining issue… or perhaps you’ve had some insight about another aspect of the issue that needs to be tapped on. Whatever your next step is, write it into your journal on that page.
A sample journal entry:
Consistency:
Even though I lack consistency, I deeply and completely accept myself.

This example illustrates a generalization… which usually isn’t the best thing to tap on. Using a specific event would be better:
Consistency:
Even though I don’t consistently do the dishes every night, I deeply and completely accept myself.
7
2
When you remember another issue in which you have consistency problems, you can tap on that too. Keep going until you tap on every issue that comes to mind during the course of your EFT session.
Keeping a record of your EFT tapping sessions in your journal will give you something to look back at and review. After using your journal for a few months, you’ll be amazed at how far you’ve come and how much your life has changed.

Thanks for the idea of keeping an EFT journal. I already keep a gratitude journal but I can see how this would be helpful as well. I’ll add it to my list of EFT Tapping Tips on my website.
