Enjoy this tapping exercise to help you feel relaxed before sleep, fall asleep easier and stay asleep throughout the night. I’ve been doing this meditation and a shorter version of it together with my daughter every night for six years now. I started using tapping before sleep to help Adhya with nightmares and she’s slept well ever since! This is very kid friendly and I encourage you to try it with your child.

To learn more about tapping and how it can help you to improve your health, wealth and relationships, listen to Episode #51 of the I AM MOM Podcast or visit my website at https://www.mindfulevolution.ca.
