Welcome to Inner Truth: A Holistic Psychology Blog.
I’m so excited to share a project that’s close to my heart — a collection of guided and unguided EMDR visualisations designed to nurture your nervous system, restore emotional balance, and help you reconnect with your inner wisdom.
These tracks form a bridge between therapy sessions — a way to cultivate calm, courage, and clarity in your own time. Whether you’re new to EMDR or already using it in therapy, these sound journeys are a gentle companion on your healing path.
What is EMDR?
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy that helps people heal from traumatic or distressing experiences. It uses bilateral stimulation — such as eye movements, tones, or tapping — to help the brain process and integrate memories that feel “stuck.”
EMDR is widely used to treat trauma, anxiety, grief, and emotional dysregulation.
What is Attachment-Focused EMDR?
Attachment-Focused EMDR (AF-EMDR), developed by Dr Laurel Parnell, builds upon the traditional EMDR model with a warm, relational, and client-centred approach. It emphasises emotional attunement and the development of secure internal resources before trauma reprocessing.
These inner resources — like a nurturing figure, protector, or safe place — cultivate a deep sense of safety and connection, creating the foundation for more profound healing.
Why I Created These Tracks
In my years as a holistic psychologist, I’ve seen how powerful guided imagery and bilateral sound can be in helping clients regulate emotions between therapy sessions. Many have wished for something to listen to when feeling overwhelmed or ungrounded — something to help them come back to calm and reconnect with themselves.
This 10-track series was born from that need — a co-creative project between myself and composer Trystan Bougaard, who brought my emotional vision to life through beautifully balanced bilateral sound design. Each track was crafted with intention, representing a different emotional state to support healing and integration.
🌿 The Five Guided Visualisations
Each of these guided meditations features my voice and imagery designed to install or deepen key emotional resources:
- Anchor & Grounding – Reconnect with your body and the present moment.
- Inner Peace – Cultivate calm, surrender, and safety.
- Unconditional Love – Feel held by compassion and reconnect with your inner child.
- Inner Courage – Access inner strength and bravery when facing challenges.
- Inner Wisdom – Tune into your intuition and higher self for guidance.
🎧 The Five Unguided Bilateral Soundscapes
The second half of the album offers a purely musical experience — immersive bilateral soundscapes designed to support meditation, journaling, or post-therapy integration:
- Awe and Gratitude – Evoke appreciation and wonder for life.
- Healing Grace – Invite softness, surrender, and emotional repair.
- Creative Flow – Open pathways to imagination and authentic expression.
- Body Wisdom – Deepen embodiment and intuitive awareness.
- Faith and Trust – Strengthen your belief in healing, wholeness, and renewal.
How to Listen
It’s essential to wear headphones or earbuds to experience the full bilateral stimulation — the gentle movement of sound from one ear to the other. This rhythmic alternation helps both hemispheres of the brain communicate, grounding the visualisations into the body and deepening emotional integration.
You can listen before therapy to stabilise, between sessions to self-soothe, or afterwards to integrate and rest. Many people also use these tracks during meditation or as part of their bedtime routine.
You may feel a little dizzy the first time you listen so take it slow if you do. I know I did. It is just your brain adjusting and this will get better very quickly. If it doesn’t improve, please discontinue listening to these tracks. You may be better suited to relaxation tracks that are not bilateral in nature.

Final Thoughts
Healing is not linear — it’s rhythmic. These EMDR-guided soundscapes invite you to attune to your body’s own rhythm of safety, release, and restoration.
May they serve as gentle companions on your journey toward wholeness.
With warmth,
