Thank you, I just did your meditation for health anxiety and just now the havening exercise. I am so grateful to have found you. I wish I had known about havening years ago. My brain torments me w worry and anxiety and I need help to manage it. I will practice this every time and am so grateful to you.
Thank you for your heartfelt message. I'm so glad to hear that the meditation and Havening exercises have been helpful for you. Continuing to practice these exercises can really help in managing those feelings more effectively over time. Sending you continued strength and healing. 💗😊
Hello, I have just come across some of your UA-cam videos and they have really helped me this evening. I have been suffering with health anxiety on and off for the last 14 months and it's been really bad at the moment. The Dr wants me to go on meds but I genuinely feel that's not the right root for me. I have had a go at this and it made me feel so relaxed and even put a big smile on my face. I will definitely be using this technique every day. Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
I'm so glad to hear that my videos have been helpful for you, especially in dealing with health anxiety. It can be a challenging experience, and I'm happy to hear that you're finding some relief through the techniques I've shared. You’re definitely not alone. Sending you so much warmth and healing 🥰💖
#DrKateTruitt @DrKateTruitt I am very thankful that I came across you recently. From what I’ve learned about your work, it is remarkable. I never heard of “havening” before. It sounds beneficial. I would like to try it out.
I'm so grateful and honored that you've connected with my work and are interested in havening. It's always exciting to hear from someone eager to explore new healing techniques. Havening can indeed be a beneficial tool for emotional healing and resilience. 💗 There are resources available on our website to get you started, and as always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need guidance. Wishing you a wonderful journey of discovery and healing. Sending you warmth and strength on your healing journey ❤️❤️🩹❤️
I’ve been working on distraction exercises, but they’rr not really effective for me. Watching this video reminds me of how important a tender touch is, especially on ourselves, when what we need is loving affection, not just distraction.
Thank you for your feedback! I understand that distraction exercises may not be effective for everyone. It's important to recognize the significance of tender touch and loving self-affection in those moments 💙
@@DrKateTruitt I have bought your book for my daughter. She has psychotic depression, controlled by medication but I’m absolutely positive your advice will help her enormously. With love, Mary age 78 in England
Thank you for this simple explanation! I love self-havening but hadn’t connected it to being akin to doing breath work. A perfect description for what I notice when I use cpr for the amygdala. Thanks as always Dr. Kate
Hello Almaza, you're so welcome! I'm delighted this was helpful for you. The breath analogy is one of my favorites. Our newest CPR for the Amygdala video actually combines both regulation techniques! 😍 ua-cam.com/video/HmEa6H7tDpg/v-deo.html
You’re so very welcome Mary! We have an entire video series made to support children, adolescents, and teens 🥰 ua-cam.com/play/PLHr7ALZRVEPaYzWLVhoZ7E0NT5pismqfa.html
The CPR for the Amygdala playlist has lots of great videos teaching and guiding how to do this practice: ua-cam.com/play/PLHr7ALZRVEPbl0_w-xt5KqbAF-5LJgnkF.html
what do you suggest if im traumatised/& scared of touch? how can i access havening. also do you know any practitioners in london england ? or do u do online ?
I'm truly sorry to hear that. You're not alone in this journey and it's important to seek the right support for your unique needs 🤗💗 I recorded a previous video and you can watch it here: ua-cam.com/video/979avw5cLUo/v-deo.htmlsi=vHeHXeYmia_OXp9k We also have Healing in Your Hands with Self-Havening Workshop Live Virtual Workshop: truittinstitute.org/shop/ols/products/healing-in-your-hands-with-self-havening-workshop-live-virtual-workshop And if you prefer to work with someone around your area, you can find certified havening practitioners through this link: havening.org/directory/grid/practitioners-list-grid I hope these help!

Fortunately havening is a powerful stress-busting technique that anyone can learn and practice at home or at work. You can do palm havening while at meetings or self-hugging while taking breaks. I hope this was helpful 🥰💖 make sure to check out my other videos on self-havening to learn more about this wonderful technique.
Both will work beautifully! Whatever feels most comfortable for you is of utmost importance. Sometimes resting the arms on a pillow may be supportive to take tension off of the shoulders and neck while also providing additional support ❤️
We know that stress can exacerbate the experience of a stammer/stutter and so this is a great tool for decreasing stress which will then decrease the presence of the stammer 💖
For better or for worse, we need to feel all the feels. Being relaxed forever actually isn't ideal! This video breaks this down further: ua-cam.com/video/myNfLjOjX3k/v-deo.html
this is a very long debate with practitioners. My recommendation is do what feels best for you and always endeavor to inhale through the nose. Let your body be your guide.
Unfortunately I can't give medical advice and thus I can't speak to curing but it may be supportive in alleviating stress and anxiety connected to what your experiencing. sending you much warmth and healing 💖
Could you post this as a question on the TikTok channel and I'll happily make a video unpacking this and also give some tips? We see this a lot . Here's the TikTok channel lead video for questions: www.tiktok.com/@dr.katetruitt/video/7024321723835223302?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id7003814401447740934
While I can't provide specific medical advice - in general CPR for the Amygdala can be really supportive for panic attacks. We have a playlist with psychoeducational and guided practices: ua-cam.com/play/PLHr7ALZRVEPbl0_w-xt5KqbAF-5LJgnkF.html
It's quite common for depression and anxiety to go hand in hand. Some people cycle between the two and others experience them both at the same time. The more we reduce stress and calm our brain and body the more likely we are to reduce the symptoms of both anxiety and depression.
I'm so glad this was helpful for you. Please know that help is available. Suicidal thoughts are a way the brain is letting us know we need help. There is help available.

Havening Techniques relies on the principles of neuroscience to deactivate the trauma in the limbic system which results in a significantly decreased presentation of trauma and other fear-based disorder symptoms. " 'Havening' is pseudoscience unsupported by any meaningful research," said Melissa Hunt, who has a doctorate in psychology and is an associate director of clinical training at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. What is true????
Try it and see if it works for you. If it's effective then it works, regardless of the mechanism. It's a leap to say that something that has limited research is necessarily 'pseudoscience'.
It's certainly a newer intervention but not pseudoscience. It's based on sound scientific principles. To be balanced, the article you're quoting, which I was also interviewed for, was published back in 2020. Here are a few research studies that have been published since then. Quite impressive results. 🤗 It's always important to be discerning when exploring any treatment modality. I appreciate your questioning. Hodgson, K., Carmi, L. H., Ruden, R. A., Carmi, M.

Absolutely. Self-havening is all about creating a sense of safety and calm, so feel free to adapt it to what works best for your body and mind. 💗

I hope it will help me with anxiety...
Thank you for watching, the goal of Havening is to reduce anxiety and distress associated with negative memories
Question: how can I do this technique at work?
Fortunately havening is a powerful stress-busting technique that anyone can learn and practice at home or at work. You can do palm havening while at meetings or self-hugging while taking breaks. I hope this was helpful 🥰💖 make sure to check out my other videos on self-havening to learn more about this wonderful technique.
I want to ask if "washing hands" is just as good as striking arms.
I feel like striking my arms takes quite an effort... maybe I have short arms ??
Both will work beautifully! Whatever feels most comfortable for you is of utmost importance. Sometimes resting the arms on a pillow may be supportive to take tension off of the shoulders and neck while also providing additional support ❤️
Is this helps to overcome stammer?
We know that stress can exacerbate the experience of a stammer/stutter and so this is a great tool for decreasing stress which will then decrease the presence of the stammer 💖
Does this create a permanent state where you can be relaxed forever?
For better or for worse, we need to feel all the feels. Being relaxed forever actually isn't ideal! This video breaks this down further: ua-cam.com/video/myNfLjOjX3k/v-deo.html
Inhale from the nose and exhale from the nose or mouth?
this is a very long debate with practitioners. My recommendation is do what feels best for you and always endeavor to inhale through the nose. Let your body be your guide.
