Re:question about eye movements

<<When containment imagery is used, which is a cousin of hypnosis, I tend to avoid using eye movements.>>

Hmm, that's interesting. Can you tell me why?

As I said, I find it is the eye movements that seem to enable me to separate from all the things running around in my brain. When I just picture the thing, that in itself does not shut my brain down. Only concerted use of my eyes following a series of visualized moving targets helps me get to sleep. Again, I'm curious what if any relation this sort of eye movement may have to that used in EMDR.

Thanks. - J.W.
