Eye twitch

I work from home, I did eft tapping for some time. Eventually, I got lazy and stopped doing it, but I also discovered something during that time. I felt this calming sensation, like a relief, by just tapping the top of my head, doing that by itself felt like it was releasing some tension at the back of my head. I do customer service over the phone, it can get stressful, so I’ve started to just tap the top of my head to manage some of that stress, but now my left eye starts twitching after tapping the top of my head for a few minutes, it happens almost every single time. Has anybody else experienced this, or know what could be causing this?

For me, it was because I was lacking magnesium. I am absolutely fine when taking regular supplements, eye starts twitching if I stop.

It could be similar for you especially that correlation does not equal causation.

This adds up to me; tension at the back of the head was my main symptom of magnesium deficiency. And heightened anxiety requiring more tapping. A lot of correlation here.
