16. What if my mind goes blank?


At times, during the tapping process, your mind may go blank and you cannot come up with any further scenarios, thoughts, or feelings. Most often this occurs because you simply lost your place, or perhaps some unrelated idea distracted you. Sometimes, though, a person's mind may feel too uncomfortable thinking about that particular thing, and shuts off in an attempt to avoid it. If this happens, it's useful to remember that, in reality, time will never stand still. There will always be something that happens next, even if it means that the problem will continue when we would prefer that it did not. It's better to start dealing with the problem than trying to put it off. If the blanking continues, just re-measure your Level of Stress and continue from there.
