If you've been following along for a little bit,

you probably know that I've been on a bit of a journey

in terms of talk therapy, in terms of EMDR,

eye movement, the sensitization and reprocessing,

which is a more intense type of therapy

to help you go through old memories.

And so you might find this most commonly

with folks like myself who have PTSD.

of this therapy is that you tap into old memories,

and go through the thought process

that you didn't have a chance to go through then

because you were trying to survive,

experience all of the feelings and then move on.
