I thought you might enjoy knowing the inspiring results of The Tapping Solution Foundation charitable fundraising aspects of Nick Ortner’s 2014 6th Annual Tapping World Summit. They started with a goal of $25,000 to support tapping relief endeavors across the globe and ended up raising $100,000.
Nick Ortner is the NY Times best-selling author of The Tapping Solution and Executive Producer of the documentary film by the same name. Tapping is a simple, effective technique for reducing stress, anxiety and overwhelm in your life by releasing limiting beliefs, emotions and habits. How could anything so easy work so well? Because it’s based in science. It taps into the electrochemistry of how our minds and bodies are wired to shift us from the inside out—physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
