Some suggestions for self-care related to this web site.
- As mentioned throughout this site, if difficulties appear, stop. Do not go forward until the distress has been dealt with using container, grounding, ShopVac, or the other resources that you have. If the distress keeps returning, stop and do not resume. If you are pushing forward into distress in this approach, it is not working and you are likely to have a bad experience.
- If this site works well for you, please to not work on a lot of memories in a single day. There are many trauma-focused reasons why moving too much memory content may cause problems later in the day (including while you are sleeping). Out of an abundance of caution, I highly encourage you not to work on more than 2-4 memories in a single day.
- “Dip your toe in” is the best and most sensible way to work using this healing pathway. It works better the clearer you are about how to do your part in this dance.
- Engage your other resources if this work activated some things for you. Go for a walk. Talk with someone who may be supportive. Move. Listen to music. Dance. Breathe. Binge watch television.
