Your post made me realize tapping is essentially a desentization(sp?) technique. I've been wondering how it worked so well for so long...lol.

On another note, I agree with Trippin. I have days where I make me time or do things to make myself feel better about myself. I even remember finding your youtube channel and watching cat videos...

Anyway, delegate an hour of your day to relax during these crazy times. Turn on some eurovision while dancing along and drink herbal tea. No one should be upset that you need time for yourself. It helps to have a space where all your allowed to do is relax
Then your body starts to associate that spot with relaxation. (Slower heart rate, muscles wont be tense, even.breathing etc)

I know that exposure to too many people in a day stresses me out! I work in fast food so it's important I make me time to recharge my batteries.
