At Edmonton Hypnosis Solutions, we are dedicated to helping individuals heal from past traumas and lead happier, more fulfilling lives. One of the powerful methods we use is MEMI (Multi-Channel Eye Movement Integration), which has been transformative for many of our clients. Laura’s story is a testament to the effectiveness of MEMI in overcoming deep-seated trauma. Here is her inspiring journey.
Laura’s Story: Healing from a Traumatic Past
Laura had endured years of physical and sexual abuse, carrying the emotional and psychological scars well into her adult life. Traditional therapy had helped to some extent, but she sought a more profound and quicker resolution to her trauma. She shares her experience with MEMI:
“Prior to making the choice to pursue Hypnosis, my past was full of years of trauma; physical and sexual abuse. This trauma has been with me from a very young girl and as I grew up and became an adult, it continued to impact my everyday life. Having such heavy baggage lingering added extra stress and a multitude of other health issues, insecurities, and fluctuating weight gain over the years.”
“While working with Ricky to determine the best option to attack my ongoing issue, she offered to do the MEMI method for the trauma issue that I had been facing. Obstructed from years of physical and sexual abuse, I was willing to be open to anything that could potentially help me move on from such trauma. We worked on each trauma separately using this method. When we were working our way through the thoughts, feelings, and emotions attached to these events, it felt as if layer by layer, I could relocate the very thoughts that smothered me over the years.
During her sessions, Laura experienced a significant shift in how she processed her traumatic memories. The MEMI method helped her reframe these thoughts, reducing their emotional impact:
“Over the session and through this process, the thoughts shifted and worked their way to an area in my mind that not only detached the emotion associated with the thoughts, but placed them in a section of my mind that no longer was at the forefront of my present thoughts. When the session concluded the feeling was not only a wow moment but also a feeling of emotional freedom, which I have not felt ever in my life.”
A New Perspective on Therapy
Laura compares her experience with MEMI to traditional therapy, highlighting the rapid and lasting results she achieved:
“Over the years, I have done the typical therapy and it has been very positive and I have come a long way. However, with the traditional way of therapy, it seems to take longer to sift through the trauma. This method took one session for me for physical and one session for sexual abuse that I have been dealing with for over 35 years. MEMI changed the entire way I see the images and my reactions to them. I can say that in this moment, when I think about it, or I am faced with a trigger that in the past would send me in a tailspin; it no longer affects me the way it did in the past.”
Lasting Change and Emotional Freedom
The impact of MEMI on Laura’s daily life has been profound. She describes how this method has brought lasting change and emotional freedom:
“I can see the difference in myself on a daily basis. I am happier and no longer focused on fighting these thoughts. My family members also notice that I do not focus on it. I am no longer triggered. The mind is a very powerful tool and with guidance, it is amazing what we can accomplish.”
Recommendation for Others
Laura’s journey with MEMI has been transformative, and she highly recommends it to others struggling with trauma:
“I would recommend this to anyone that has been battling things that have altered their perspective on life. It is very freeing and can give you back a big part of yourself, the part that someone else impacted and you had no choice but to live with it. But with this method and process and some work; you get to choose yourself and take away anything that was in your path so you can move forward.”
