We get personal this week and stay right on the f%cking healing train as Gabrielle sits down for a one-on-one with therapist Brooke Spahn to discuss the power of EMDR therapy. EMDR stands for ‘Eye Movement, Desensitization, and Reprocessing’ and Brooke shares some amazing insights into how it’s helped her clients reclaim their lives (and beliefs about themselves) from difficult traumas in their past. In a nutshell, EMDR aims to help reframe a person’s negative belief about a traumatic event and turn it into a positive affirmation, hopefully giving them some much-needed relief from the painful memory. Gabrielle touches on how both she and Tay have traumatic events from their childhood and how EMDR could be beneficial for both of them when they’re ready. Brooke then reminds us that this therapy is part of an overall healing practice that stresses the importance of trust and openness, so always make sure you’re ready to go there first! It’s another fascinating deep dive into one of the many healing options out there. Enjoy!
