This week, Tracy welcomes you to episode #123 of ADHD for Smart Ass Women where she is going to talk about ADHD, procrastination, and tapping. Tapping combines Ancient Chinese acupressure and modern psychology. You tap specific meridian points on your body while focusing on negative emotions and/or physical sensations. Tapping can resolve stress, anxiety, phobias, emotional disorders, chronic pain, and limiting beliefs and there's science behind why it works.

Tracy shares the science behind tapping, how the VA uses tapping for veterans with PTSD, why body-based somatic therapies work better for trauma, what tapping can do for gene expression, how tapping can help reduce anxiety for ADHD women, how trauma encodes itself in the body, what EFT/tapping can do to the brain's learning, how tapping calms the nervous system, the difference between tapping out and tapping in, how she uses tapping to start work that she doesn't want to do and the tapping process and how to do it.
