EMDR and Havening for Extreme Anxiety

Think of a difficult memory and notice its grip loosen instead of tighten.

You know the moment: you try to push a feeling away and it only grows stronger, the same anxious scene replaying no matter how hard you fight it.

You are guided through side to side eye movements, the kind used in EMDR, while holding onto the memory, like trying to play a scratched CD until it simply cannot skip to the same place again. The pace then slows into something softer, gentle stroking along your arms and hands, the Havening technique, letting built up tension drain rather than settle back in. Whether it is a memory from the past or a moment you dread in the future, this session works with your unconscious to help it feel more distant and easier to hold.

It runs about 22 minutes, and many people notice the same memory sits differently by the time they open their eyes.
