Add Heart to Emotional Well-Being; Creating Our Way Out of Overwhelm, Anxiety and Other Stressful Emotions
Guest: Nick Ortner, CEO of The Tapping Solution, LLC Mental and emotional well-being perhaps has never been more important than it is right now. As a result of the pandemic and ongoing challenges it’s created, nearly three-quarters of U.S. adults say they have experienced an increase in headaches, fatigue, feeling anxious or overwhelmed, sleep challenges and so on. A Harris Poll conducted on behalf of the American Psychological Association found that more than one-third of Americans say making basic day-to-day decisions has become far more stressful (e.g., what to wear, what to eat, etc.). In this podcast, Deborah Rozman, our Add Heart® Podcast host, and her guest Nick Ortner, best-selling author of The Tapping Solution: A Revolutionary System for Stress-Free Living and CEO of The Tapping Solution, LLC, will talk about how we can better support our mental and emotional well-being during these uncertain times. Many people assume that they have no control over how they feel. Feelings and emotions often come and go with no apparent reason. Yet, HeartMath® research and Tapping research confirm that we can take charge and release or shift many unwanted feelings. We can create our way out of overwhelm, anxiety, and other stressful emotions. Deborah and Nick have both made their life’s work about helping others learn how to release anger, anxiety, and depression and experience more renewing and uplifting emotions. They will share some of the hopeful research and provide helpful information along with a technique you can start using right away to increase your emotional well-being. They will share insights that can help address some of the compounding pressures we may be experiencing at this time. The podcast will close with a guided heart meditation to activate your heart power and create a reservoir of heart energy you can draw from any time you need an emotional uplift.
