I hesitate to say too much on this forum because baring my soul has only back-fired on me in the past.

I will say this - it's a procedure where one concentrates on a certain incident that was so traumatizing it has the effect of crippling ones emotions and leaving one in a trap of constant pain. At the same time, they put headphones on you with a certain beat and you hold these things in your hand that pulse at a different beat. All the while you are thinking of this incident and then moving on from it. It's hard to explain. I chose one incident where I was basically raped by a leader - it was just horrible. They also at the same time had used my children to torment me by taking them away. Anyway, it did seem to alleviate a lot of pain, truly did. But it's only the beginning. I think I could use a few more sessions working on other incidents, but I ran out of time. Maybe I'll get back to it again later, maybe not. I think it's worth checking into for anyone that suffered sexual abuse or even emotional abuse.
