🧠Q: Wat is Brainspotting?

Brainspotting is een diepgaande, gerichte therapiemethode die helpt om toegang te krijgen tot onverwerkte trauma’s, emoties en stress en deze los te laten door gebruik te maken van de verbinding tussen lichaam en geest. Het is een effectieve, niet-invasieve methode die veel steun biedt.

❤️‍🩹Q: Waar kan Brainspotting bij helpen?

Brainspotting kan je helpen bij stress, angst, trauma’s, rouw, relatieproblemen, emotionele verdoofdheid of een algemeen gevoel van vastzitten. Het helpt opgekropte emoties los te laten en ruimte te creëren voor helderheid en rust.

👀Q: Is Brainspotting veilig?

Jazeker, Brainspotting is een zachte en niet-invasieve methode. Het kan diep werken maar je behoudt tijdens de hele sessie de volledige controle, en we werken altijd in een tempo dat voor jou veilig en haalbaar aanvoelt.

After getting to know brainspotting, I really got hooked! It is such a graceful and organic way of processing deep emotions and trauma. Even if you've been to different types of therapy I think it's interesting to try brainspotting as it reaches into areas of the brain-body connection that just can't be reached in a talking or bodywork session!

Brainspotting was developed by David Grand in 2003. It works by identifying areas in your brain where emotional tension and trauma are stored. By focusing on specific eye positions—called brainspots—and paying attention to your body, we can allow your nervous system to release deeply held tension and blocked emotions.

It is body-oriented: your sensations guide the work.

It is mostly non-verbal: much of the healing happens without words.

It can be used alongside other therapy sessions, like individual sessions that include focusing, creative explorations and bioenergetics.

Unlike talk therapy alone, Brainspotting works deeply with the connection between body and mind, helping your brain access its natural ability to heal itself.

It helps access and release unprocessed emotions, trauma, and stress by using the brain–body connection.
Using a point in the visual field, we allow the brain to process stuck energy. Physical sensations, memories, insights and emotions may move through in order to create space in the system.

I have decided to bring the Mindfulness course back to life. A course that I've given many times in the past (well before covid). But now it is time to bring an updated version. No more forceful sitting still and meditating, but finding a natural way of meditation through simple presence, curiosity, and embodiment. I would love to meet you in this intimate group - whether you have a lot or a little experience with meditation (or none at all), it promises to be a cosy get together for 6 weeks. 🥰 Check my website or fb profile for more info

Like so often with complex processes, it took a little longer than expected - and even though there will always still be some things to tweak - I am 𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐰𝐞𝐛𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 to you today.
Please have a look at it, and scroll down in this newsletter (see link) if you'd like to know more about the incredible method I am working with.

Behind the scenes I am also creating many group offerings to come in the new year, because so much magic happens in groups. You get more time, more practical work, deeper learning and the best thing is the humbling and comforting realization that we're all in this beautiful messy human experience together!

Christmas is approaching, and many are already enjoying their holidays.

Healing begins with presence, compassion, and curiosity. During sessions I will often guide people away from overthinking and analyzing and towards a deeper experience - the body and the inner worlds... That is where feelings, emotions and also deeper knowledge and intuitions live.
