BTR.ORG Meditations: A Healing Modality for All
Sammy, like many members of the BTR.ORG community, is a woman of faith. She shares:
"I have typically shied away from meditation because I'm coming from a Christian base and I was afraid of new age-type meditations that I had only briefly heard about. So I kept scripture reading, prayer, and just my own meditation in communing with God, so to speak."
Sammy, Member of the BTR.ORG Community

Anne (00:01):Welcome to BTR.ORG. This is Anne.
The last two episodes have been members of our community who are sharing their experience with The BTR.ORG Meditation Workshop.I wrote, recorded, and edited it specifically for women in this situation. It includes 13 meditations and they are all really amazing. They cover different topics, even though the beginning of all of the meditations is similar, it uses different words and has a different topic, and then it has a topic specific visualization about halfway through, and women are finding it to be really, really helpful. So I've invited Sammy, another member of our community to share her experience with the meditations today.
Before you even listened to it one time, what were your expectations before and then the first time you listened to it, what was your experience?
Being open to new healing modalities
Sammy (02:21):My experience with meditation, I have typically shied away from it because I'm coming from a Christian base and I was afraid of, I don't know, new age for lack of a better definition type meditations that I had only briefly heard about, so I kept scripture reading, prayer, and just my own meditation in communing with God, so to speak. But I thought, well, no, I'm really open to this. I'll see what I think.
Anne (02:52):Just out of curiosity, what made you open to it in the first place? Just that you trusted BTR or -
Sammy (02:58):Oh, yes, yes. It was going to be safe and fine, and I always know that, say I started it and it was too triggering, for lack of a better word for me, I can just stop it, knowing that it was coming from a safe source.
Using the Workbook with the Meditations
Anne (03:14):Before you tried it, did you print out the workbook?
Sammy (03:17):Yes, the whole deal.
Anne (03:19):How did you feel about like, wait, this is a meditation. I didn't know it was a workbook.

| 0:11.0 | When you were searching for help, maybe for your husband thinking if you were searching for help, maybe for your husband thinking |
| 0:14.4 | if you found the right program or therapist, it could help him. When I realized what |
| 0:19.6 | was really happening, I couldn't believe I'd supported my husband through seven years of |
| 0:24.8 | pornography addiction recovery and not one therapist during that time told me I |
| 0:29.2 | was experiencing emotional and psychological abuse and sexual coercion. |
| 0:33.7 | Like, how does that happen? |
| 0:35.3 | Why is it that we go for help? |
| 0:37.2 | But instead, we just get dismissed over and over and over |
| 0:41.3 | by therapists, by clergy, by other professionals? |
| 0:44.0 | Why doesn't anyone understand this type of abuse? |
