The Protective Adult Self
Length: ~3–4 minutes
Focus: Internal strength and wise self-leadership
Description:
This recording supports continued installation of your Protective Adult Self — the calm, capable part of you that responds with strength and wisdom. It’s ideal to revisit between sessions to reinforce your sense of internal safety and confidence. Through slow breath, gentle tapping, and imagery, you’ll cultivate the embodied awareness that you can care for and protect yourself in grounded ways.
Safety Note:
Use tapping only while it feels stabilizing. If at any point it becomes activating, pause the practice and reorient to your surroundings or safe place.
This resource is not a form of psychotherapy and should be used as a complement to ongoing EMDR work under the guidance of your therapist.
