Everyone’s familiar with that feeling: Frozen. Stuck. Uncertain. Deer in headlights “I don’t want to make the wrong move so I won’t make any move at all.”
Thing is, choosing not to decide is still a choice. At least, that’s what the band Rush says in their song “Free Will”. I tend to agree.
I used to think about choice in a few different ways:
If you don’t like where you’re at, choose something different.
Most choices are not permanent, so it’s not a big deal if you “choose wrong”. Choose again, try something different.
In every moment, there is always a choice: a choice to continue along the path given, a choice to change, and a choice to remain in-between: not the path given, but not choosing a new one, either.
What is EFT tapping, how does it work, and what are the tapping points? Find out in this introductory video! I’d recommend starting here, and then trying out one of the tapping videos available my YouTube channel.
Tapping points: Side of hand (setup statements) Crown of head Start of eyebrows Side of eye Under eyes Under the nose Under the mouth Collarbone Under the arm Wrist to wrist

Tarot is my main squeeze but the Emotional Freedom Technique, aka EFT or Tapping, has quickly become a modality that has personally helped me with a number of issues, including self-worth, manifestation, healing parental emotional abandonment and trauma (with the aid of a separate licensed therapist), writer’s block, upleveling, boosting intuition, and more.
What is EFT? The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a combination of acupressure and positive psychology, created by Gary Craig. Verbalization of an issue while also stimulating the acupressure points creates a sense of calm within the body’s energetic systems. Tapping can be used for many issues, including pain, anxiety, phobias, and stress relief.
My EFT certification was provided through the Gala Darling Method, which included 3 months of weekly classes and practice sessions facilitating tapping sessions, from February to the end of April 2022.

I keep on forgetting to blog. Because why would I, when I technically vlog every week during my livestream?
It’s hard to keep everything I’m doing up to date. First, there’s my book which comes out 11/22/22 (talk about divine timing!). Then there’s my podcasts, plural: Cardslingers Coast to Coast and the Tarot by Hilary podcast.
To add to my plate, I’m also participating in National Novel Writing Month, which usually finds me sequestered, isolated, and weird. You’d be too if you wrote 50,000 words in a month.
But I digress. We had a really fun and information episode of the livestream last week, and I wanted to let you know about it.
Next week I’ll be on Jenna’s socials talking about MY book, so you’ll definitely want to check that out.
