"It has been said that the emotional wounds of high school have the half-life of uranium. And there’s a lot of truth to that statement. In my decades of medical practice, I’ve seen the adverse effects of these wounds years later—in the minds, spirits, and emotions of adult women. But this doesn’t have to be the case. The Tapping Solution for Teenage Girls provides teenage girls with precisely the tools they need to regularly and effectively discharge the emotional stress of their intense lives. As a result, girls have the opportunity to reach adulthood as whole, confident women—unencumbered by a lot of baggage from their teen years. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has a teenage daughter or who cares about one."

"I absolutely love this book! As the mother of a teenager, I know that there is no greater problem in a girl’s life than the continuing, ever-expanding stress that our kids go through—both as they grow and change internally and as they face the outer pressures of high school and college applications. To be able to offer a simple tool that is so effective is a real game changer. I want every teenager to have access to this information. It’s not only helpful now, but it’s a phenomenal tool for life. One of the most fun aspects of the book is the guidance of Cassidy, a teenager who uses tapping and brings us into her life to help makes the connection of to how she uses this technique to battle her stress bombs. I am less stressed just knowing this book is in the world!!"

"I first learned EFT tapping from Chris Wheeler back in 2006 and instantly recognized that it had the potential to be a great tool in helping my then nine-year-old daughter navigate the inevitable challenges of life. Ten years later, tapping has proven to be the go-to tool for pretty much anything! Chris has a unique way of assuring girls that their upsets may seem like the end of the world but they’re completely normal and manageable with tapping.
