Brainspotting: Find the calm in your body

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, overwhelm, or chronic stress but you aren’t sure how to improve your mental health?

Welcome to the world of brainspotting! An incredible opportunity for you to better get to know and understand your brain-body connection. Brainspotting offers a unique opportunity to explore your feelings both in your mind and the physical symptoms those emotions produce in your body.

One technique the brainspotting process allows is for you to find the calm in your body by noticing where you feel most grounded. Maybe it is in your legs or even in your feet. We can then find a visual field across from you to pair a resource spot or a calm spot that you can look at as you process your story.

Collectively, you can then learn to rely on the grounded feelings in your body while sorting through the files in your brain that need to be reprocessed in a healthier way. This process allows you to navigate  your journey and begin to release unwanted psychological and physical symptoms from the body. Each journey is different, but brainspotting can jumpstart the healing process while helping clear excess emotions and pain that you have been carrying for some time as it can get stuck in the body.

Positive outcomes that have been observed at Evora have been beginning to recognize the activation and the calm in your body, experience a realization about what to do next in your story or how you can pivot to promote a positive outcome, begin to release heavy feelings that have been weighing on you for extended periods of time, become more comfortable addressing your mental health needs while finding solutions, and creating a safe and trusting space to work through some of life’s most challenging moments.

The most critical component of the brainspotting opportunity is the relationship and specifically the attunement between the client and the therapist. This important space promotes safety and connection to best be able to access these files in our memories that can at times negatively impact our mental health. I welcome you to explore this opportunity more through a free 15-minute consultation with Amanda Ratz to best be able to support your mental health. Wishing you well as you continue to live your best and healthiest life all around!
