This modality utilizes the body’s natural ability to heal through eye positions called brainspots. When a brainspot is stimulated, the deep brain appears to signal the therapist and/or the client that a source of the problem has been found. The client keeps their eyes on the spot while attending to the sensations in the body. This allows for the neocortex, the thinking part of the brain, to be bypassed to access the deeper subcortical emotional parts of the brain to help heal and integrate underlying trauma that contributes to anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other underlying conditions. BSP can also be used to enhance strengths and natural resilience. Many times bi-lateral sound is also used to make brain spotting more powerful.
