EMDR: Container Exercise

The EMDR Container Exercise is a useful tool that can be used to safely contain distressing thoughts, emotions, and sensations until a time when you are more supported and resourced. The idea here isn't that you suppress or avoid, but rather to consciously pace yourself and tend to your overall well-being. This exercise can be helpful in between therapy sessions. To get full benefits from the bilateral music, please use headphones. Also, this recording is not a substitute for therapy.
