Tapping Script for Healing the Pain of Losing Your Dog
If you've ever suffered the loss of a pet, you know that it can be every bit as painful as losing a human loved one.
Regardless of whether the loss you've experienced is brand new or took place decades ago, when EFT is used to heal your grief, the layers of pain simply melt away, leaving in their place a profound sense of peace and acceptance.
Though the intensity of grief can make it seem like it will never end, when you use EFT to release it, you soon realize that your sorrow is finite, and that though love is forever, your suffering doesn’t have to be.
Below are some tapping statements to guide you in your healing. As with all of my tapping scripts, these statements can be used as is, or modified in any way that makes them resonate more fully with your experience.
Once you start tapping, you may notice thoughts and feelings arising that can be turned into new tapping statements, which will then give rise to more thoughts and feelings that can be used as tapping statements, and so on.
By using the statements in this script, along with the ones that come to you while you're tapping, you'll find that you are able to heal and release a lot of grief in a short amount of time.
HOW TO USE THIS SCRIPT
As with all of my tapping scripts, these statements can be used as is, or modified in any way that makes them resonate more fully with your experience. Some of them will fit for you, and some will not. Just use the ones that fit your experience and have an emotional charge.
You may notice that when you start tapping on these statements, thoughts and feelings will arise that you can then turn into new tapping statements, which will then give rise to still more thoughts and feelings, which you can use to create additional tapping statements, and so on.
I call this following the thread, and it’s a very efficient way to heal and release a lot of painful feelings in a short amount of time.
PLEASE NOTE
If, when working with this tapping script, you get stuck, aren't getting the results you'd like to get, or would simply like to have the support and guidance of an experienced professional, I recommend working with a trained EFT practitioner.
