Welcome to my podcast, The Wellness Project with Des. On today’s episode, I speak with Mary J Held about healing her complex trauma with EMDR.
After experiencing multiple traumas, Mary explains that she suffered from a seizure disorder for 11 years. Doctors thought her seizures were stress-related. Mary put in the work to destress. She lost weight, did yoga regularly, went for daily walks, she even got a low-stress job but nothing seemed to help.
A man suggested she try EMDR. With nothing left to lose and desperate for help, she decided to give it a try. To Mary’s amazement, EMDR healed her seizures almost right away. It was at this point that Mary realized she actually had Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
On this episode, Mary explains what EMDR is and how it helped her heal her complex trauma and her seizures.
Mary was so amazed and inspired that she went from keeping her traumas hidden to writing and publishing a book about her traumas and healing journey with EMDR. It’s her goal to get the word out about how transformational EMDR can be. Listen to this episode to learn more.
