About this ebook
The solution to your most persistent struggles isn’t in your thoughts—it’s in your nervous system, waiting to be found, teaches Dr. David Grand, developer of Brainspotting.
This revolutionary update to Brainspotting explores how to work with our body’s interlocking nervous systems to heal trauma and stress.
Unlike talk therapy, which can take years to heal because it only reaches the part of the brain that uses language, Brainspotting can offer immediate actionable information by using the visual field to find the exact eye positions, or “brainspots,” where unprocessed trauma is physically stored in the brain. In this radical update to the book Brainspotting, Dr. Grand presents the latest advances in the method, particularly the Neuroexperiential Model (NEM), a breakthrough framework that can bypass the thinking mind to access the deep nervous system to heal in real time.
The NEM is a holistic approach to the nervous system, rooted in the cultural and environmental factors that contribute to a person’s outlook. Culture, argues Dr. Grand, is not merely a factor in a person’s neuroexperience―it is the very structure and foundation upon which their nervous system responds to the world. Dr. Grand defines the body’s eight interlocking nervous systems and explains how Brainspotting engages them simultaneously. The book shares cutting edge research on Brainspotting and the NEM; concrete examples of how Brainspotting has helped with mental health, physical health, creativity, and sports performance; and guidance for readers looking to adopt Brainspotting in their lives.
More than 60,000 therapists and healers in more than 100 countries have now been trained in the Brainspotting method!
