This EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is for tapping to release the fear in a relationship. You could do it in a phone or Zoom session with me or try it yourself. If need be, refresh your memory as to the tapping points here Emotional Freedom Technique. Here is a protocol that may be helpful in working with the fear:
Even though I might not understand what holds me back from finding and staying in a fully loving relationship I deeply and completely love and accept myself.
Even though I think I’m ready for a relationship, and it isn’t here, so I must not be ready, I forgive and honor myself.
ET some unknown thing is holding me back from having and keeping my desired relationship, I’m ready to move forward.
This fear I’m hiding from myself
I’m confused
I just don’t know
It’s so frustrating
Why do I pretend to myself I don’t know?
I’m so confused
I’m so frustrated
I just can’t seem to get it right
Even though I don’t have a healthy relationship (or any relationship), I completely love and accept myself
Even though I want to be emotionally healthy in a relationship, and I’m afraid, I forgive and honor myself.
Even though I’m struggling to keep (or create) a healthy relationship, I’m working on it right this minute.
