Any kind of energy work (EMDR, EFT, Tapas Accupressure, ...) comes with a warning that one should expect to feel tired and need sleep afterwards. Energy moving work takes water too. The same would apply to intense therapy sessions. You need rest and water to replenish the energy that is redistributed and/or used.

I'm going to remember that & really pay attention to drinking extra water after my sessions, especially the intense ones.
I know I was so tired last night (had intense session yesterday afternoon) that I slept like a ROCK & that very rarely happens for me b/c of the nightmares from PTSD. I was just completely exhausted, even though I had not done much physically, didn't even take the dog on a decent walk yesterday.
today I'm going to be extra gentle with myself
