[quote=BlueMoon6;1145143]Dream- it sounds like a very powerful tool for your memories and trauma. I dont know anything about this, but it sounds like the relaxation and eye movements are something that help somehow process your feelings. Am I right? quote]

Thanks, Blue - yes, the idea is that the bilateral stimulation helps the brain process the memories, gets them 'unstuck', so that the emotions are freed and are processed correctly. T said it's normal to feel relaxed (I kept saying that I felt spacey) because T said I was in my head so much and not really talking much.

Also interesting, when T would ask me between sets where I was, my voice was different, almost like my voice from that age. Has anyone who has had EMDR experienced that? T was sitting about a foot away from me, and she even had to lean in to hear what I was saying.
