 THE RIPPLE EFFECTS OF
TRAUMA LARGE OR SMALL
When an emotional asteroid strikes it causes
ripples that can endure until they are
resolved or changed.
 SANDYS SITUATION
Sandy, a successful software executive was
consumed by anger and frustration over the divorce
custody negotiations regarding her children.
 EMOTIONAL LOOPS NOT FRUIT LOOPS
Strong emotions can cause a block to
resolving or extinguishing the effects within
the neural-network as should normally
occur.

Brain imaging research concludes that the capacity for efficient crosstalk between the amygdala
and the mPFC, which is represented as the strength of the amygdala-mPFC circuitry, is crucial to
beneficial outcomes in terms of reported anxiety. Kim, Loucks, Palmer, & team. Behavioral
Brain Research, (2011) Vol. 223, No. 2.
 GOOD EMOTIONAL AROUSAL VS. BAD
There is an curvilinear
relationship between ones
performance and arousal
(stress).

That relationship is called the

Yerkes-Dodson Law (maybe
more of a guideline).
 ANOTHER EFFECT OF TRAUMA OR M-T
Sometimes a trauma or micro-traumas, especially
in early life, can cause a more broad and lasting
barrier to succeeding in life. They can cause a
life-limiting belief to develop.
 ANOTHER EFFECT OF TRAUMA OR M-T
Life limiting beliefs most often would sound like:

Im not safe
Im worthless
Im powerless
Im not loveable
Im bad
Life is unfair
No one can be trusted
JANICE AND THE BREAK-IN

Im Not Safe
HOLLY AND HER BROKEN HEART

Will anyone ever really love me?

 DEATH BY A THOUSAND CUTS
Not all life-limiting beliefs are the result of a single micro-trauma.
Jakes story - When does a car breakdown equal = Im not
competent?
 NOW THE GOOD NEWS!
The effects of both big traumas and micro-traumas can be
eliminated.
In most cases it doesnt take years of therapy, and in many
situations, with the right tools, people can neutralize those
interferences themselves.

 LIFE-LIMITING BELIEFS
When Traumas or Micro-Traumas develop into life-limiting beliefs a
4-step process called Code To Joy, described in my book by that
name, re-patterns those faulty self-concepts to realistic and
productive ones.
Examples:
Im not loveable to I can love and be loved
Im worthless to I have value and worth
 LIFE-LIMITING BELIEFS

The 4-Steps:
1. Identify
2. Clear
3. Re-pattern
4. Anchor
 EMOTIONAL LOOPS
Remember how strong emotions can cause a block to resolving or
extinguishing the effects within the neural-network as should
normally occur?
It is as if the flow of emotional energy in a neural-network becomes
trapped and prevented from flowing and communicating correctly,
in much the way material can become trapped in a whirlpool.
 ESM TO THE RESCUE
What is Emotional Self-Management (ESM)?
A blend of Eastern and Western approaches.

Acupuncture and Cognitive

Psychology
Mind and body interactive
Energy of mind is electromagnetic
 ESM IS A MIND-BODY PROCESS
Thoughts carry specific fields of electro-magnetic
energy
Thought energy interacts with body energy (You
feel fear, anger, and other emotions as a physical
sensation.
Disruptions with the balance between mind and body
energy causes emotions to remain unresolved or
blocked
Unresolved or blocked emotional energy can be
balanced by adding energy to the body
Acupressure adds sufficient energy to rebalance the
emotions
 A BRIEF HISTORY OF ACUPUNCTURE
Over 1000-year-old form of oriental medicine
1971 James Reston (NY Times reporter in China advance of 1972 Nixon visit)
has acupuncture for post-operative pain control, returns to US and writes
about his experience and introduces acupuncture to general US population.
1997 Nat. Inst. Health consensus report acupuncture validated for treating
pain and nausea.
2008 Harvard study validates acupuncture effective beyond placebo in
treating pain.
Past 20 years its also been used to help with stress and emotional traumas
as well.
 WHAT ARE ACUPUNCTURE SITES?
Acupuncture/acupressure sites (Acupoints) possess unique electrical
characteristics
Acupoints conduct electrical current with less resistance than surrounding
tissue.
Acupoints serve as functional receptive antenna to conduct energy

 THE ESM PROCESS IN ACTION
1. Focus on the emotional distress, the memory, the situation (past,
present, or future) and rate the level of current distress caused on a 0
to 10 scale.
2. Do a 3-minute structured breathing exercise (Balanced Breathing)
3. Correct for interfering Polarity Reversals by tapping an acupoint
while making a series of cognitive intention statements regarding the
problem.
4. Go through a sequence of self-applied acupressure and activities
associated with integrating the treatment process through regions of
the brain.
5. Relief of distress is then measured by refocusing on the target
problem and assessing the levels of change on the 0 to 10 scale and
other subjective changes.
 THE BRIDGE
The Bridge is a sequence of activities
involving the eyes and brain hemispheric
activities to circulate the treatment through
various regions of the brain. Youll see it
involves gentle eye movements then
activating the left, right, then left
hemispheres of the brain while continuously
tapping the Back of Hand spot.

Emotional Self-Management is an effective process to reduce and eliminate
blocks to resolving strong emotional reactions that have become chronic.
A few simple exercises done on a regular basis can increase your effectiveness.

When life-limiting beliefs have developed

from early Traumas or Micro-Traumas,
there is the 4-step Code to Joy process.
That is for another time.
