Feeling overwhelmed?  Big emotions taking over?  Learn to self-soothe with Lani and your magical butterfly friend, using the butterfly hug technique in this mystical, calming meditation.  

What is the "Butterfly Hug" technique?  Sometimes known as "butterfly tapping", the "butterfly hug" technique uses bilateral stimulation as a self-soothing tool to help manage strong feelings in times of distress.  Originally designed to be used with EMDR therapy to help treat symptoms of PTSD, the butterfly hug can also be relaxing and soothing on its own and is a great way to help children and adults learn to self-soothe.
