The Tapping Toolbox: Simple Mind-Body Techniques to Relieve Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Pain, and More

With over 30 years of public speaking experience, I have learned that if you want me to give a good 10 minute speech, give me at least 10 hours of preparation. If you want me to give a one hour speech, give me 10 minutes. That is a long winded way of saying that this book by Fred Gallo, "The Tapping Toolbox" reflects years of experience, knowledge and work. I was amazed at how adeptly he put so much information together in 136 pages. This is a great book for somone wanting an introduction to tapping interventions, as well as someone with decades of experience in the field. As an energy psychotherapist, it will be my "go to" recommendation for clients.

After months of searching for a cure of my panic and anxiety disorder after a terrible miscarriage, I came across Fred’s book on Energy Tapping for Trauma. This book was the first one to really understand my pain and suffering from trauma and how trauma gets stuck in the body and how one forgets certain aspects and how to address it energetically. His understanding was also coming from his own history of trauma. After months of working with traditional therapists, medication and acceptance therapy, I still couldn’t get out of this traumatic loop filled with hundreds of triggers. I reached out to him and we had multiple sessions. I also read this book and can clearly say, Dr Fred has vast knowledge of energy psychology, years of experience and establishes a great report with his clients. Not only have I begun to feel relief, many of my memories have become a distant memory of my past. I also love how he transforms dying pain to healing pain! His book is easy to read, easy to understand, we just have to tap in and use the toolbox of methods that is lying inside us!

This book is a champion of the highly beneficial mind-body techniques for self-help and for psychotherapy that supersedes talk therapy. Essentially, this tapping sends a calming signal to the brain which shuts down agitated stress responses and re-establishes emotional and physical balance. Dr. Fred Gallo is a pioneer of these techniques and here is one more of his written masterpieces. Written in simple and understandable language, this book is a guide to teach anyone how to release mental, emotional and physical tensions and even pain.

Great easy to read book on different tapping routines to ease anxiety, fear, stress, pain, etc.

Dr. Gallo has written a brilliant and thorough book which will increase your knowledge of tapping even if you have been studying it for years. He looks at the process of transformation through tapping from many different lens and perspectives, and dives deep. If you do EFT or TFT or want to learn about them, this is a must read!
