Higher Energy Podcast with Tapas Fleming, Founder and Creator of TAT
ACEP’s Higher Energy Podcast - Episode #: 006 -- Podcast hosted by:
Paula Shaw, CADC, DCEP and Robert Schwarz, PsyD, DCEP Executive Director, ACEP
Tapas Fleming joins us today to discuss the Tapas Acupressure Technique® (TAT®) and shares how to do the TAT pose while leading us through how the technique works to clear emotional connections to trauma, negative experiences, and unpleasant thoughts that may cause stress and anxiety in our lives, including current worries regarding the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19). She explains how TAT can be used to heal the emotional charge and physical reactions to trauma, abuse, stress, and adverse childhood experiences so that an individual is no longer triggered by those memories and can live from a more spiritually-connected, centered, and peaceful place.
Through TAT, Tapas shares that unresolved emotions and limiting beliefs that have been picked up from family members, society, and events that we’ve lived through can be dissolved in a gentle but powerful way so that individuals can live from a more natural expression of who they are.
What happens when you do TAT?
Imagine there is a part of you in every experience of your life. For each positive or negative experience, there is a piece of you left in it. When you think of memories that make you happy, like certain smells, places or even hearing a song, it almost feels like you are transported back to that moment. You find yourself smiling and remembering the happiness you felt.
The same kind of reaction happens when you are reminded of a trauma or negative experience. You can feel it in your whole body. A sinking sensation, your body tightening up, feeling fear, anxiety or worry, or a feeling of heaviness can come over you. You might even find yourself perspiring, your heart rate going up and your breathing becoming shallow. You are taken back to all the negative parts of the experience, and you are having a reaction to it because parts or pieces of you are stuck in that experience.
The TAT process clears your emotional connection to the trauma or negative experience. While you still have the memory, you no longer have the emotional charge, physical reaction, or stuck connection to it.
Once the emotional connection is cleared, you are no longer triggered by those memories.
Have you experienced any of these feelings?
- I hate myself.
- I have no value.
- I can't trust anybody.
- I'm anxious all the time.
- I'm so angry.
- I can't get out of feeling like a victim and things never work out for me.
- What's wrong with me?
- I'm lonely and I can't connect with people.
- I don't have the kind of deep, meaningful relationship I want with a partner.
- I keep having chronic health issues and suspect that things I experienced in my past are making it so I can't get well.
- I'm afraid I won't be able to do what I came here to do because I keep getting in my own way.
All of those thoughts and feelings come from past, painful, unhealed experiences. The TAT technique can heal all of those. This means that those feelings and thoughts actually come to an end.

Guided Healing for Climate and Disaster Relief with TAT
In this video, I guide you through a short, modified version of TAT for Climate and Disaster Relief.
One of my friends lives in Canberra, Australia, and she inspired me to get it done. I hear about her watering her plants, hoping to save them from the fires, getting government-issued masks to try and help cut the extremely-toxic smoke danger, that the situation is hour-to-hour deciding what to do, and she’s
wondering about leaving her home of 30 years, not sure where it’s even safe to go right now. The situation, as you probably know, is so dangerous and deadly for countless people, animals, plants, and trees. People have lost so much and are in conditions of shock and overwhelm.
TAT effortlessly puts us in a more spiritually-connected, centered, peaceful place. This video gives us an opportunity to join together in our wishes and intentions for the healing, health and happiness of everyone, including Mother Earth. It can be used for anyone who has lived through any disaster, related to climate change or not.
Please pass this link on to everyone you want. You’re welcome to introduce it to groups and organizations you belong to. Doing it together then sharing your experience with listening friends or family makes the healing more powerful. And if you can’t do it with a group, know that the intention we make at the beginning of the recording includes you and everyone who’d like to benefit. You’re already part of the group!
