So I read this famous work on PTSD & trauma in the spring as well as listening to it on Audible as this really helps me to concentrate if I can listen & read at the same time. It’s quite a hefty tome, & it’s not an easy read but I was struck by the remedies section toward the end which recommend several things especially & most notably Neurofeedback & EMDR as the best fastest options for moving through trauma.
So I wanted to make sure people know that Isochronic tone music is basically very close to being a safe, soft Neurofeedback method without all the expensive equipment etc - it’s a brainwave entrainment tool that you have to consciously self assess how you are responding & adjust accordingly to use beneficially & theraputically.
Coincidentally, I had already instigated what I call diy micro self EMDR plus Isochronic Tones to good affect on a daily basis a year previously to reading Bessels book. I’m sure that working one-to-one with an EMDR trained therapist would be terrific & much much faster etc but when I last tried to get help for my daughter a) they said our mental health pictures were too difficult 🧐🥺 & b) they were charging stupid amounts of money per hour which seems scandalous to me for such a simple technique that is freely outin the public domain, simply requiring a basic supportive therapy backdrop for best outcomes.
