Overcome Challenges Without Reliving Them:
Discover the Gentle Power of BWRT®
If you’re uncomfortable discussing past experiences or find them too distressing to revisit, BWRT® could be the ideal solution. This therapy allows you to address issues without sharing details, ensuring effective results without the need for extensive conversation.
BWRT® is particularly beneficial for those who wish to work on challenging emotions like anxiety, even if they’re not ready for long-term talk therapy. By reducing your stress response, BWRT® helps you feel more prepared for deeper therapeutic work, if and when you’re ready.
BWRT® (BrainWorking Recursive Therapy) is a powerful and innovative approach, currently being explored as a treatment for non-complex trauma by the NHS in the UK.
This therapy is also being utilized by the South African police force to help officers manage PTSD, and is making a positive impact in correctional facilities, hospitals, and schools.
BWRT® is designed to assist with a wide range of issues, offering an effective solution for those seeking deep, lasting change.
BWRT is based on research that shows that actually, a decision is made before we even mentally know about it, is an unconscious process, and is based on previous experiences over the current situation.
We like to think that when faced with a decision we mull over available choices, then consciously pick one.
Our early brain, colloquially called the ‘Reptilian brain’, is programmed to protect us. And this early brain, when faced with a stressful situation, seems to rapidly ‘pattern match’ to find a response. It scans all our previous experiences and simply picks the best match for the current situation.
But before we consciously register this choice, there is a tiny pause, or a ‘cognitive gap’. BWRT uses this gap to ‘reroute’ your brain and change your response pattern.
Terrence Watts explains:
“Many ‘symptoms’ are the result of a behavior or thought pattern ‘firing up’ that has been activated before. It might actually have been suitable or effective at one time but the fact that it isn’t now is of no consequence to the non-reasoning part of the brain. BWRT makes it possible, via a simple technique, to create a new response pattern to any stimulus so that the action the brain triggers is one that we want.”
What is a session actually like?
You’ll begin by briefly sharing with the therapist what you want to focus on during the session. Then, you’ll close your eyes as the therapist guides you through a series of visualization and sensing exercises.
You might be asked to imagine the situation that troubled you, how you’d prefer it to have gone, or even visualize your ideal future self. These guided processes follow a specific sequence designed to bypass conscious thought, allowing for deep, effective change.
While it might feel unusual, the approach is carefully structured to bring about positive results.
Do I have to talk about the past?
Not at all. BWRT® isn’t based on discussing the details of your experiences; it’s more about training your brain’s responses.
You have complete control over how much or how little you wish to share with your therapist.
Do I lose consciousness during the BWRT process?
Not at all. You remain fully conscious and aware throughout the sessions. BWRT® works by addressing the gap between your automatic responses and your conscious awareness.
Some responses we’ve learned no longer serve us, and by understanding that these reactions can be “rewritten,” BWRT® helps you create lasting change.
