If you’re tired of lying in bed while your brain runs a full-budget action movie at 2:17 a.m., this book is for you.
Tapping Your Way to Better Sleep by Jack N. Raven is a practical guide to using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) — also known as tapping — to calm stress, settle anxious thoughts, and build a more sleep-friendly nervous system.
This isn’t a book that tells you to just relax and hope for the best. It walks you step-by-step through a repeatable method you can use at bedtime, after nighttime wake-ups, or anytime your sleep gets hijacked by tension, worry, or mental noise.
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
Use the EFT Basic Recipe in a simple, beginner-friendly sequence
Create setup statements that actually match what you’re feeling (instead of generic affirmations)
Tap for common sleep struggles like racing thoughts, bedtime anxiety, and frustration about not sleeping
Build a calming routine using targeted tapping points and optional add-ons (like the 9 Gamut Procedure)
Apply EFT support for sleep challenges including insomnia, nightmares/night terrors, shift-work sleep disruption, and more
What makes this approach different is the focus on what often drives sleep problems in the first place: stress signals that stay on, even when you’re exhausted. EFT gives you a way to work with those signals quickly, gently, and without needing special equipment.
This book is especially useful if:
You feel physically tired but mentally stuck on
You wake up at night and struggle to fall back asleep
You’ve tried sleep tips, supplements, or routines and your brain ignored them anyway
You want something you can actually do, not just read about
Important note: EFT is a self-help tool and a supportive practice — not a replacement for medical care. If you suspect conditions like sleep apnea or have persistent sleep issues, it’s smart to involve a healthcare professional.
If you’re ready to stop battling your nights and start training your body toward calmer sleep, Tapping Your Way to Better Sleep gives you a clear plan you can use tonight.
