The temporal tap is an ancient technique that has been used for pain control in ancient China.  However, it is also effective in breaking old habits and simultaneously establishing new ones.  The temporal tap consists of tapping around the temporal bone beginning at the temples and traveling around the back sides of the ears. Here are the steps to follow:
1.  Starting at the temple, tap the left side your head from front to back with the three middle fingers of your left hand.  While tapping, state the negatively worded version of your statement regarding the habit you want to change in rhythm as you tap.  (For instance, use the words "no," "not," "never," "don't," "won't" .... "I don't eat from anxiety or compulsion.")  Tap hard enough to feel a firm contact and a bit of bounce.  Tap from the front to the back about five times, making your statement with each pass.
2. Repeat the technique on the right side, tapping with your right hand but this time use your statement in its positively worded form. (Such as: "I eat for health and fitness and I enjoy my food.")
3. Repeat the procedure several times per day.  The more you tap in the affirmation, the quicker and stronger the effect on your nervous system and your field of habit.  Source: Energy Medicine by Donna Eden with David Feinstein, Ph.D.
