Brainspotting
"Where we look affects how we feel." BSP makes use of this naturally through its use of relevant eye positions. This helps the BSP therapist to locate, focus, process and release a wide range of emotionally and bodily-based conditions. BSP is also a brain-based tool to support the therapeutic relationship. We believe that BSP taps into and harnesses the bodys natural self-scanning and self-healing ability. When a Brainspot is stimulated, the deep brain appears to reflexively signal the therapist that the source of the problem has been found. BSP can also be used to find and strengthen our natural resources and resilience. BSP is designed as a therapeutic tool that can be integrated into many healing modalities. BSP can also be used with performance and creativity enhancement. BSP is even more powerful when used with the enhancement of BioLateral Sound CDs.
A person begins with a few minutes of breathing and listening to headphones to BioLateral sound. The client then finds the spot in their body where they are holding the most distress and rate it from 0 to 10. The therapist helps the client to find an eye position (brainspot) where the eye naturally focuses where the pain feels the strongest. The therapist helps the client to slowly move through the awareness that develops inside after finding the brainspot. What happens is different for each individual and can change with each session. There are visual images, sensation in the body, memories and various feelings. The idea is to allow these natural responses from the trauma to surface. The client can share their experiences with the therapist as they go and shift to different brainspots. The distressed brainspot is significantly lessened by the end of the session. A gentle release of energy happens with the process., unfreezing what was held from the past. The client mostly feels mental relief upon realizing that this disturbance from long ago is no longer upsetting. An alter-sense of change stays with the client outside of the session. Brainspotting does not require "reliving the trauma" as much as it "releases the trauma from the memory." This helps in no longer feeling the pain, upset and distress from those childhood ordeals.* Katherine F.H. Heart
