So the point is, some people say, well, if it happens too quickly... then it can't be real. I mean, some of the trauma work we do is, I mean, you know this, Heather, with some of the stuff we've done. I don't remember specifically any of it because I think we first met probably 15 years ago or something like that. That's when we first started doing stuff. But

You know, I don't know, I wasn't there in that session Gina had with that young lady who was trafficked by her mom. But, you know, I know we use the same, you know, she and I are equally capable and we use the same techniques and the same methods. And sometimes people will go from being visibly agitated when they remember something that happened.

They still remember what happened, but the emotional evidence, the emotional symptom, the emotional effects of that memory just has changed. They still know it happened, but they just feel different about it. And once that thorn is removed, from their mind, basically, then it's much easier to change the underlying beliefs, like in the example Gina gave. Oh, I guess I am worthy.
