We even have some really interesting meta-analyses that show that things like the emotional freedom technique, which I thought was pure BS, in some meta-analyses has been shown effective for trauma. So this is like where they tap on certain parts of your body and they release stored emotions.

But in clinical trials, like even though we have no idea how biologically it works, in clinical trials, people improve. I don't think it's all about talk therapy. I think talk therapy is great.
