🧠What’s the difference between EMDR and Brainspotting?🪄

Here is an extract taken from Taproot Therapy - talking about when David Grand Discovered Brainspotting through the use of EMDR.

‘During that session, Grand was using EMDR’s bilateral eye movements, slowly waving two fingers back and forth as the skater tracked them while focusing on the performance block. Then something shifted. As Grand moved his fingers to a particular position in her visual field, he noticed an involuntary wobble in one eye, a reflexive response he had observed countless times during EMDR sessions but never understood. Usually, he would continue the bilateral movement pattern, following the EMDR protocol. This time, acting on pure intuition, he did something different. He stopped moving his hand and held his fingers in that exact position where the eye wobble occurred.

“Keep looking right here,” he told her.

What happened next changed both their lives and ultimately the field of trauma treatment. As she maintained her gaze on that fixed point, processing accelerated dramatically. Material emerged that hadn’t surfaced during months of bilateral EMDR. Memories, emotions, physical sensations, and insights cascaded through her awareness with unprecedented intensity. The session produced breakthrough after breakthrough, layer after layer of the trauma and psychological material underlying her performance block releasing in ways Grand had never witnessed.’

Your energy introduces you before you even speak.

When you walk into a room with love, presence, and intention, you become someone who uplifts every space you enter. 🌟 Be the kind of soul whose presence feels like sunlight—gentle, warm, and transformative.

That’s how you leave a legacy.

🌱 Waiting doesn’t mean you’re off track—it means you’re trusting divine timing.

Let the present be enough while you anticipate what’s unfolding.
Your life isn’t on pause—it’s preparing you.

💭 Growth is messy, and hindsight is always clearer.

When you catch yourself spiraling into “I should’ve known better,” pause - and replace it with:
✨ “Now I do know better.”

Self-forgiveness isn’t weakness - it’s how you stop the cycle of self-sabotage and start healing forward.

“Before you argue with someone, ask yourself, is that person even mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective. Because if not, there's absolutely no point.
Not every argument is worth your energy. Sometimes, no matter how clearly you express yourself, the other person isn’t listening to understand—they’re listening to react.
They’re stuck in their own perspective, unwilling to consider another viewpoint, and engaging with them only drains you.
There’s a difference between a healthy discussion and a pointless debate.
A conversation with someone who is open-minded, who values growth and understanding, can be enlightening—even if you don’t agree. But trying to reason with someone who refuses to see beyond their own beliefs? That’s like talking to a wall. No matter how much logic or truth you present, they will twist, deflect, or dismiss your words, not because you’re wrong, but because they’re unwilling to see another side.
Maturity isn’t about who wins an argument—it’s about knowing when an argument isn’t worth having. It’s realizing that your peace is more valuable than proving a point to someone who has already decided they won’t change their mind. Not every battle needs to be fought. Not every person deserves your explanation.
Sometimes, the strongest thing you can do is walk away—not because you have nothing to say, but because you recognize that some people aren’t ready to listen. And that’s not your burden to carry.”

Look beyond the behavior—see the need. 💡

Every action is rooted in a feeling, and every feeling stems from an unmet need. Instead of reacting to the behavior, take a step back and ask: What’s really going on beneath the surface? 🌿✨

When we start addressing the cause instead of just the symptom, we foster understanding, healing, and true growth—both in ourselves and in others. 💛
