Bilateral Stimulation Butterfly Hug
#Butterfly Hug for EMDR
Butterfly Hug pochodzi z terapii EMDR, metody używanej między innymi w pracy z traumą. EMDR opiera się na tak zwanej bilateralnej stymulacji - czyli naprzemiennych bodźcach po prawej i lewej stronie ciała. Pomaga to układowi nerwowemu wyjść z trybu alarmowego, a co za tym idzie lepiej regulować emocje. Owe ćwiczenie jest jedną z form takiej stymulacji i używa się go do ugruntowania i spokojnego wejścia w proces regulacji. Dlatego kontekst oraz moment jego użycia mają znaczenie. Chcesz więcej psy
