    i'm a sophomore student struggling right now after seeing my midterm grades. hearing her voice makes me feel like crying while doing this butterfly hug technique.
    it's really hard and i'm overwhelmed by a lot of emotions right now. thank you for comforting me through this video. really, thank you so much.

      It's been about 12 years since I finished college but learning how to regulate our emotions is a must I believe. I actually got teary when she said the affirmation of 'I'm in a safe place'. I wish I had focus on managing my emotions when I was younger, please keep going, you will do great! Our well-being is always more important than our grades or our jobs.

    I've just been shown this technique in my last session with my Health Care provider. Retired Canadian Army diagnosed with PTSD. Still learning it but the immediate sense is of peace and tranquility for a short period of time. Hopefully with practice the positive effects will be longer lasting. I followed along with the video and a sensation I felt was on the left side of my head, a tingling sensation. Bottom line is that for myself the technique helps.

      Hi Vicky, I am a therapist being trained for EMDR and it is not unusual for your emotions to be retrieved while doing the tapping or hugs. Remember you are being stimulated with the tapping. My recommendation would be for you to consider doing EMDR therapy so you can get the full benefit. Maybe there are some memories that are stuck and you need help getting them unstuck. The butterfly hug helps to calm down but you may need to process what it is that it's pending in your memory. Hope this helps.

      @@ep2891 My Health Care provider took me through this technique for the first time in our last session. Prior to actually doing it I recalled a specific incident from my life. Yes there were tears but after going through the whole process there was indeed a sense of peace and tranquility. I'm looking forward to becoming more proficient at using the technique.

    This bilateral stimulation has worked for me in some of the toughest times. I learned this technique in my Voices for Women group session. I have also shared this technique with my kids and hope they utilize this and share where required in times of loneliness. It is very effective. I suffer from Dissociative Identity Disorder and my husband PTSD. I have not shared this with him yet but I will certainly do so when he needs. Thanks for sharing!!

    I can't fucking believe it!
    I'm just discovering/realizing
    for the first time in my 44 years of life...
    The rage and grief I feel...
    THESE ARE MY SUPERPOWERS!
    The fact that I can feel these at all,
    this alone, is my superpower!
    It is sacred it is divine it is feminine it is miraculous.
    Most are too numb to know or to feel.
    But I know. And I feel.
    This has all been in preparation for my mission
    as an alchemist.
    I am a Lioness.
    I am a Goddess.
    I am a Radically Honest Biker Bitch!
    Holy heaven I am mind-blown!
    HALLEUJAH! AND PRAISE THE LORD!
