Siesta Key was a good time. But if you swipe left and look as the next pic, for those of you with multiple sclerosis, you know how clumsy we can be.

EMDR is the proven treatment for PTSD and Trauma. It works by using BLS movements with your eyes when holding a target memory in your mind, noticing what emotions come up with that specific memory, and what body sensations you are feeling. The trained Psychologist or Therapist uses their fingers or a light bar to pass in front of your eyes a set of 20 or more BLS to process and you focus on that memory. That memory might stay or another memory might come up. All the while you process and notice the memory no longer has the same feeling for you.
