Overeating due to stress? Tap 8 parts to lose weight quickly

Physical health performance is closely related to mental state. Being in an environment of high mental stress, tension and anxiety for a long time will affect the balance of body hormones and endocrines, causing abnormal symptoms such as loss of appetite, depression, overeating, etc., which is a major cause of obesity. A new book in the United States provides a novel method of weight loss. It uses a stress-relieving massage method that taps eight different parts of the body. With only 15 minutes a day, you can lose about 7.2 kilograms in eight weeks, and maintain the weight for more than half a year without gaining weight again. (Video/taken from YouTube)

Gently tap 8 parts of the face and body, combined with the power of positive thinking, to effectively help lose weight.

Stress can lead to overeating

According to a report in the British Daily Mail, stress-compensatory eating is one of the reasons why people are more inclined to consume high-calorie snacks such as chocolate, biscuits, potato chips, etc. Negative stress on the body will make it easier for the body to accumulate fat. However, a new American book, "Tapping For Weight Loss," points out that as long as you tap 8 specific parts of the face and body 7 times each and repeat 5 rounds, you can eliminate the urge to overeat and achieve weight loss.

The author of this book, Jessica Otna, is the founder of the "Tapping Weight Loss Method". In the past eight years, she has traveled around the world to promote this weight loss method that combines psychological beliefs and massage, and she also has a large number of supporters.

Otna said that the most important thing about this pressing and tapping weight loss method is to change the negative thoughts in your mind, because the pressure caused by gaining weight will not only make people want to eat snacks or drink more, but also make it easier for fat to accumulate in the abdomen. Therefore, as long as you learn how to change this negative feeling of pressure, you can reverse the brain's reaction and eliminate the psychological mechanism of wanting to eat junk food. For example, when you look in the mirror every day, get rid of the thought "I am so fat, what should I do with myself?" and change it to "Although I have a lot of belly fat, I will not feel depressed because of it. I can face myself properly."

Tap 8 parts 7 times each for 15 minutes a day

In the experiment, 89 women were asked to find their sources of stress and think positively without exercising or dieting, and then to practice the tapping weight-loss method for 15 minutes a day. They first gently tapped the knife-shaped area below the little fingers of both hands, and then tapped the following 8 areas: eyebrows, around the eyes, under the eye sockets, philtrum, chin, middle of the clavicle, armpits and top of the head, tapping each area 7 times. Experiments have found that it takes an average of about 2 months (8 weeks) to lose 16 pounds (7.2 kg).

Although the effect of tapping massage is not as fast and significant as dieting, it can help you reduce weight steadily without regaining weight. A 45-year-old British woman was emotionally affected by divorce and relied on binge eating to heal herself. She weighed 105 kg from 165 cm tall. She also relied on dieting to lose weight but still gained weight again. Until she tried tapping weight loss method combined with the power of positive thinking, she has successfully lost 33 kg so far.
