		<description><![CDATA[When you have a song stuck in your head it can be very annoying and frustrating. EFT offers you a way to explore the hidden meaning of the song.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_431" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 167px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-431" title="mens-head-listening-music-thumb3304062" src="/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/mens-head-listening-music-thumb3304062.jpg" alt="Song Stuck in Head" width="157" height="118" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Song Stuck in Head</p></div>
<p>We&#8217;ve all experienced having a song stuck in our head looping as if on continuous playback. The German language even has a word for it, &#8220;ohrwurm&#8221; which means &#8220;ear-worm&#8221;.</p>
<p>So can EFT help with the song? It is my belief that the song is repeating because your subconscious mind is trying to convey a message. A bit like a dream that contains strange symbols and experiences, the song itself has a subtle message for your benefit.</p>
<p>A simple way to tune into the message is continuously tap through the EFT points whilst listening to the song. This will clear any emotional experiences that you associate with the song and may give you some insights into why it has been stuck in your head.</p>
<p>Alternatively, you can apply the following tapping to get the message behind the song. In this example, I will use &#8220;this song&#8221; and you can be even more specific by using the actual name of the song if you know it.</p>
<p>Using this <a href="/eft-tapping-points/" title="EFT Tapping Points" class="liinternal">EFT tapping points guide</a>, start and continue tapping on the Karate Chop Point while saying:</p>
<table border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Karate Chop<br />
Point:</td>
<td><em>Even though I have this song stuck in my head, I deeply and completely accept myself.<br />
Even though this song is so I annoying, I wonder if there is a message that I need to hear?<br />
Even though this song is stuck in my head and so annoying, if there was a message in it for me I wonder what it might be?</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Head:</td>
<td><em>This annoying song in my head</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Eyebrows:</td>
<td><em>This annoying song in my head</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Side of Eyes:</td>
<td><em>What could this song be trying to tell me?</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Under Eyes:</td>
<td><em>Who does this song remind me of?</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Under Nose:</td>
<td><em>If this song was trying to tell me something,</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Chin Point:</td>
<td><em>what could it be?</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Collarbones:</td>
<td><em>I choose to be curious about the message for me in this song</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Under Arms:</td>
<td><em>Even though I&#8217;m still annoyed by this song in my head</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Wrist Points:</td>
<td><em>I choose to accept the message in it for me</em></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>You may need to do a couple of rounds to get rid of it completely. Or if you get really frustrated with the song, simple tap and ask you subconscious mind to send you the message in a different more obvious way.<strong>Related Posts:</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes we get stuck in our heads thinking the same thoughts over and over again like a music track on repeat and can&#8217;t find an escape. Often we turn to alcohol, drugs, addictive behaviour, and even self-harm to break the thought patterns.</p>
<p>The Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is an innovative approach to healing that can be applied to any emotional and physical issues you can name and often gets results when nothing else works. When EFT is combined with music it can often tame our thoughts and give us some much needed peace.</p>
<p>The success of EFT lies in the balancing of the body&#8217;s subtle energies that flow through the body, in much the same way as blood flows through veins. This balancing is done with an elegant sort of emotional acupuncture. Instead of using needles, specific points on the body are stimulated by tapping with the fingertips.</p>
<p>The basics of EFT can be <a href="http://www.emofree.com/a/?397/1" class="liexternal">learned by anyone</a> and can be self-applied (usually in minutes).</p>
<p>When you get stuck in your head continuously looping on the same issue, try applying EFT while listening to your favourite uplifting music. Having music playing helps the right brain become involved and balance out the left-brain dominance which is keeping you stuck in the loop.</p>
<p>Someone recently mentioned to me that the first movement of Beethoven&#8217;s 5th Symphony was especially beneficial. I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll recognise this piece of music when you hear it. I use this piece at the end of group sessions and often see people in a blissful state when it&#8217;s finished.<strong>Related Posts:</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When next you are having trouble with a stubborn issue that just doesn&#8217;t seem to respond to normal EFT tapping, try putting on some of your favourite uplifting music and tap along with the beat.</p>
<p>Having music playing helps both the left and right brain become involved and may further influence the vibrations of the meridians that you are tapping on.</p>
<p>Have a go with this and let me know your results. Someone recently mentioned to me that the first movement of Beethoven&#8217;s 5th Symphony was especially beneficial. I&#8217;m going to try this one myself very soon.<strong>Related Posts:</strong>
