“Can I also use the REMSTIM 3000 to reinforce positive events and make them sustainable for me?”
Yes, it is possible. Rather, integrating positive experiences and their associated emotions is part of the standard process of EMDR. Thus, the so-called weaving in of positive feelings and thoughts is also found in self-coaching with EMDR. As read in Step 6 of Self-Coaching with EMDR, an anchoring is done at this point in the self-coaching process. The aim is to understand and visualize the first positive thought and its pleasant associations that were experienced during the session. With this image (images) in mind, a new application is now started with the REMSTIM 3000. It should be noted that the stimulating light pulse of the EMDR device is set to a very slow level. This slow back and forth of the eyes, initiated by the light signal from the EMDR goggles, then causes the positive emotions to weave into our emotional brain. The result is the future availability of these positive emotions, which improves the feeling of being alive, as one’s own memory is strengthened thanks to positive emotions as these pleasant emotional states become increasingly anchored.
Spontaneous application of EMDR with the help of the REMSTIM 3000
The REMSTIM 3000 can also be used spontaneously to spontaneously weave in a wonderful experience with the help of EMDR. This does not require the use of a full EMDR self-coaching session. Rather, it is sufficient to visualize the joyful event and then start an application with the REMSTIM 3000 with slow stimulus. In this way, it is possible to anchor preferentially positive life experiences deeply in the emotional memory, so that we can also benefit from pleasant memories in the long term. Our emotional memory thus constantly learns how beautiful life is and all the valuable and pleasant things we are given day after day.
