Integral Eye Movement Therapy

One eye open

Integral Eye Movement Therapy is a breakthrough therapeutic approach that creates rapid transformation in emotional challenges and identity-related issues. At its core, IEMT addresses a fundamental question: "How did I learn to feel this way about this experience?"

 

Understanding Emotional Imprinting

When we encounter significant experiences, our minds create emotional blueprints that shape our future responses. This process, known as emotional imprinting, begins with storing an emotional reaction to an event. Over time, repeated exposure to these stored memories can transform from simple emotional responses ("This makes me feel unhappy") into deeply rooted identity statements ("I am an unhappy person").

 

From Emotion to Identity

The progression from emotional response to identity is subtle but profound. While emotions are temporary states, identities become integral parts of how we view ourselves. Consider the difference between:
- Experiencing motherhood ("I care for my children")
- Identifying as a mother ("I am a mother")

When emotions evolve into identity statements, they become constant companions in our daily experience, often feeling immutable and overwhelming.

 

 The IEMT Approach

IEMT harnesses the natural connection between eye movements and memory processing. When we recall memories, emotions, or thoughts, our eyes instinctively move in specific patterns, accessing different regions of our brain. IEMT works with these natural eye movements while addressing emotional and identity-based challenges, effectively disconnecting overwhelming emotions from stored memories.

​Freedom & Breakthrough: Tailored 1:1 Coaching

Emma Toms in the water Loch Lomond

What do you want more of in life?

 

  • Better sleep: falling asleep without racing thoughts, waking refreshed.

  • More energy: a body that feels alive, not just “getting by.”

  • Natural confidence: trusting yourself and your choices.

  • Inner calm: meeting stress without being swept away.

  • Deeper connection: knowing who you are and what you need.

 

And what would you love less of?

  • Less stress and overwhelm.

  • Fewer emotional triggers that knock you off balance.

  • Less anxiety about your health and symptoms.

  • Less self-doubt or “I’m not enough” running the show.

 

 These aren’t just wishes. They are real outcomes my clients experience when we work together.

 

Why This Work Creates Change

Most people who come to me have already tried so much — the diets, the supplements, the therapy, the protocols. Yet something still feels missing.

That’s because true transformation doesn’t happen by managing symptoms.

It happens when the nervous system feels safe enough to let go of old patterns.

 

In my coaching, we blend:

IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) → shifting the way trauma, memories, and beliefs are stored.

Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) → rewiring the nervous system for calm, safety, and connection.

Somatic practices, Reiki, and guided meditation → integrating balance and resilience into daily life.

This isn’t about coping. It’s about rewiring. That’s why clients often say after a session, “I feel lighter, freer, and more myself again.”

Rebalance & Rebuild 

Claire Millar Photography-61.jpg

A Four-Week Journey of Rest, Regulation & Renewal

 

When a body has been running on empty for too long, it begins to whisper… then ache… then shut down.

Stress becomes a constant hum. Symptoms flare without warning. Sleep slips away. Thought feels foggy. Even joy feels out of reach.

 

If you’re living with chronic stress, burnout, anxiety, autoimmune conditions, or long-standing fatigue, you may recognise this pattern more deeply than you’d like. Rebalance and Rebuild is a four-week, science-rooted and soul-led programme designed to help you reclaim the calm, clarity, and vitality your body has been calling for.


A space where your nervous system finally exhale—and where healing becomes possible again.

 

Who This Is For

This programme is created for those who feel:

  • Drained, wired, or constantly on edge

  • Trapped in cycles of flare-ups, fatigue, or emotional overwhelm

  • Disconnected from their body’s signals and needs

  • Exhausted no matter how much they rest

  • Restricted by brain fog, racing thoughts, or chronic tension

  • Guilty for slowing down, yet unable to keep going

  • Afraid to fall apart, yet weary of holding everything together

 

If any of this feels familiar, you’re not “broken.” Your nervous system is simply tired of surviving. This journey teaches it how to live again.

 

What You’ll Gain

By the end of four weeks, you’ll walk away with:

  • A calmer, more regulated nervous system

  • Improved sleep quality and deeper rest

  • A personalised Sankalpa—your soul-aligned intention—rooted in your deepest truth

  • Tools to navigate stress, overwhelm, and emotional triggers

  • Greater energy, clarity, and mental steadiness

  • Somatic practices that reconnect you to your body’s wisdom

  • A blueprint for sustainable healing long after the programme ends

 

This is not a quick fix. It’s a return to yourself—steady, grounded, and real.

 

What Makes Rebalance and Rebuild Different

Most programmes focus on forcing change with willpower. This one works with your biology, not against it.

  • Root-cause approach: We address the origins of dysregulation, not just the symptoms.

  • Nervous-system-first: Because healing begins with safety.

  • Trauma-informed somatic work: Practices that speak to the body, not just the mind.

  • Daily Yoga Nidra + Intentional Rest: To rewire stress patterns and restore energy.

  • Guided Sankalpa development: A practice far deeper than goal-setting; a vow to your truest self.

  • Multi-modal learning: Breathwork, somatics, IEMT teaching, journaling, reflection, community.

  • Science + spirituality woven together: Practical, grounded, ancient, and modern.

 

This programme meets you where you are and walks with you—gently, steadily—towards the person you’re becoming.

 

The Science Behind the Journey

The core of this work is evidence-based:

  • Chronic fight-or-flight activation drives inflammation and worsens autoimmune symptoms

  • Breathwork and vagus-nerve stimulation reduce stress hormones and support immune recovery

  • Yoga Nidra improves HRV, deep-stage sleep, emotional regulation, and cognitive clarity

  • Somatic awareness rebuilds interoception and calms stored survival patterns

  • Intention (Sankalpa) activates deeper subconscious mechanisms for behaviour change

  • Connection and community measurably improve resilience and immune biomarkers

 

This is healing through biology and embodiment—not bypassing, not pushing, but restoring.

Safe and Sound Protocol

Listening through headphones

Who is the SSP for?

The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a therapeutic intervention designed for individuals facing various challenges related to stress, anxiety, social engagement difficulties, and sensory processing issues. Developed by Dr. Stephen Porges in alignment with the Polyvagal Theory, the SSP may help alleviate a wide range of symptoms:

  • Chronic health problems

  • Mental Health conditions

  • Substance use challenges

  • Attention and learning differences

  • Changes in appetite, energy, desires and interests

  • Difficulty sleeping

  • Feelings of loneliness and isolation

  • Difficulty connecting with others


What does the SSP involve?

The SSP is a listening programme, in which specially-filtered music progressively trains your auditory system to focus on sound frequencies resembling that of the human voice. By stimulating the facial and vagus nerves via the middle ear, it sends cues of safety to your nervous system, helping you to feel more settled, engaged and balanced.

 

Assessment

The SSP is not suitable for everyone. If your current circumstances are contributing to your dysregulation, it is best to wait until things settle down for you before starting the SSP. For some people it is advisable to use the SSP only alongside ongoing therapy.

You will therefore be asked to complete an assessment to screen for contraindications. The assessment also helps me to understand how your nervous system currently responds to challenges. Assuming the SSP is suitable for you, the assessment will inform the individualised programme I will set out for you.

SSP is more suited to working with your provider who understands how the nervous system works, and who is able to regulate themselves, is an important part of retraining your nervous system.

 

The role of the provider

As your SSP provider, I will guide you through your SSP journey through a combination of in-person or online video sessions and online contact. I will make sure you are fully prepared before you start listening to the music, and will recommend a personalised listening plan for you. I will provide psychoeducation and answer any questions you may have. During the listening, I will monitor your progress and make sure you are progressing through the programme at a pace which is right for your individual nervous system.

 

The role of the listener

During a listening session, you will listen to the music, whilst engaging in light activity such as breathing exercises, stretches or drawing. It is important you let me know of any feelings or sensations that arise, whether emotional or physical, so that your listening plan can be adjusted to suit the needs of your individual nervous system as they evolve over time.

Less is more when it comes to the SSP, so listen to the "whispers" of your nervous system before they become "shouts"! You are listening to and honouring your nervous system's needs, not simply listening to the music
