45 | š Three awesome (and weird) therapies that actually work
Beau Armistead, the founder and Executive Director of Sojourn Counseling, gave me a quick whirlwind / 30,000 foot overview of three awesomely odd (but helpful) healing modalities.
We talk aboutā
š
1ļøā£ EMDR / Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
ā super-effective therapy that alleviates (and even eliminates) traumatic distress by using bilateral stimulationā¦
ā¦ and mimics what your brain does while youāre in REM / Rapid Eye Movement sleep.
2ļøā£ Brain Spottingā
ā a deep dive (i.e., if EMDR is snorkeling, this is scuba diving) into specific areas of distress, based on WHAT & WHERE hurtful / harmful memories are storedā¦
ā¦ sometimes, it creates a āspotā on the brain. If we can find that PLACE, we can heal the āstuffā thatās there.
3ļøā£ Micro-current Neuro Feedback (MCN)
ā a means of rebalancing the brain through small electrical currents (i.e., think: whereas drugs / pharmaceuticals provide chemical relief, most of the issues in the brain are electricalā¦ so, often, what we do is the equivalent of calling in a plumber when we really need an electrician.
Turns out, your brain is neuroplastic. It can be rewired.
And, in the same way it can be rewired based on hurts, it can also be rewired based on healingā¦
ā¤ļøāš©¹ā¤ļøāš©¹ā¤ļøāš©¹
For clarityā¦
ā¦ Iām not trained or licensed in ANY of those. Iām a teacher, a communicatorā¦
Beau is the pro in counseling / therapeutic arena.
So, I learned into his wisdom / experience to relay what we could acquire and pass on.
