Nurturing Figure Practice
Length: ~4 minutes
Focus: Receiving care, compassion, and warmth
Description:
Intended for use after you’ve developed your nurturing figure in session, this audio helps strengthen your ability to receive care and warmth from that presence. Through imagery, breath, and gentle bilateral tapping, your body learns to safely experience comfort and compassion. With practice, this exercise supports your system’s capacity for self-soothing and emotional regulation between sessions.
Safety Note:
Engage in tapping only while it feels grounding and gentle. If you notice discomfort or emotional activation, stop and return to a stabilizing resource or grounding activity.
This audio is an adjunctive support for EMDR clients and not a replacement for psychotherapy, medical, or mental health care.
