Granny Taps with the 12th Annual TWS

12th Annual Tapping World Summit


TAPPING: 

Tapping on body meridians to deal with any number of issues and goals, from easing a recurring headache to becoming a confident, self-caring unstoppable on the way to success in all areas of your life, is not a newly introduced "energy medicine."  But this is the first time I have done an article on it in some time, so if you are new to the concept, and curious how it works, here is a useful video to watch: Suggestions on How To Tap with Brad Yates  After you get over the feeling that it is a woo-woo thing, you will understand when Brad says "The only silly thing about tapping is not doing it."

The Tapping World Summit is the longest-running online "summit" or series of webinars of interviews with prominent experts in the Tapping Community.  The Ortner family-- siblings Alex, Nick and Jessica-- have developed this effective way of getting the benefits, mechanics, and recent trends out into the online world.  While you can purchase an entire kit of interviews and other useful teaching items for the cost of a couple of self-development coaching sessions, you can also watch all the videos (30+) for free during the time the Summit is live.  Each day's offering of 2 or more video interviews is available to watch free, on-demand, for 24  hours. This above promotion ran in 2020. There will likely be another Tapping Summit early in whatever year you are coming up to.

PRESENTER JIM KWIK (from TWS presentation 2020)

Last night we were introduced to Jim Kwik, who has been a friend with the Ortners from before the tapping involvement.  Jim's session with Jessica Ortner is entitled "Boost Your Brain Power-- How to Improve Your Memory, Focus and Ability to Learn Easily."  Jim had an unfortunate fall in his kindergarten year, resulting in a brain injury and a number of discouraging comments grew out of the learning challenges that came of that injury.  But like many resilient children, Jim didn't give in and accept a label of having a "disability" or a "broken brain".  He worked hard to catch up with his peers, teaching himself to read, even though it took him three years.  

Today Jim is a memory expert who can teach anyone to remember names and learn whatever they want to in a focused, fun way.  Before he became expert in the field, Jim had a pretty classic phobia around public speaking.  Today he gets up in front of thousands to present.  He credits tapping as a real boon to anyone who is naturally introverted or shy (not the same thing-- shyness is the lack of confidence that grows out of being shamed).  For anyone who had a patchy time of it in school-- who was put down or picked on or felt invisible-- tapping can be particularly helpful to working to eradicate the feelings of unworthiness and hurt.  These feelings continue to use up all kinds of energy years after the original events that instilled them.  If you want to free up that energy to get on with a happier life with a boosted brain, I recommend getting hold of Jim's interview with Jessica, where they do 2 or 3 great tapping sessions, and where Jim talks more about his fascinating area of expertise.  

Here is Jim Kwik talking AND teaching about his passion:



And here he is using tapping (EFT- Emotional Freedom Technique) with his friend Nick Ortner-- to demonstrate how you can clear self-sabotage in learning:

Spunky Monkey DIY Vegan Chocolate-Chia Ice Cream

Vegan, plant-based, and 100% delicious! This creamy homemade ice cream will win over everyone— no politics, just pure joy. Vegan and Delicious: Everyone Will Love This! Sometimes the word "vegan" evokes strong feelings like anxiety (as in "Please don't take away my meat") and/or hostility (as in "What a bunch of commie flakes all vegans are"). There are probably good reasons for both of these passionate emotions because we frequently come across strident, fear-mongering diatribes online blasting us from the ivory towers of the most raging animal-freedom activist or the highly evangelistic plant-based health advocate. "Plant-based" is an alternate description for a lifestyle choice to eat from the array of fruit, greens, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. Using the term "plant-based" instead of "vegan" may be less intimidating. It even sounds like, although the diet has a plant-based foundation, it possibly includes meat and eggs...

G7 2025: Why It Matters

  57th G7 Summit- Wikipedia commons. What is the G7? 🤝 The Group of Seven (G7) is a forum of seven wealthy, democratic nations: Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan, along with the European Union . It started in 1975 as the G6 to coordinate responses to global economic shocks like inflation and oil shortages. Canada joined in 1976 to form the G7(1). Russia was briefly part of the group (making it the G8), but was expelled in 2014 after invading Crimea (2). How Does It Work? The G7 is informal — there’s no permanent office, headquarters, or constitution . One country hosts the summit each year and sets the agenda. Leadership rotates annually among the member countries in a fixed order (3). The summit itself is usually a 3-day event where world leaders meet in private for discussions, photo ops, and joint statements (although this year’s format is changing — more on that later). What’s the Point? The G7’s original mission was to tackl...
