Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S. See book keywords and concepts | Back in 1987, while walking in the park and thinking about some personal distressing memories, she happened to notice that eye movements appeared to decrease the negative emotions associated with them. Like many great innovators in healing (or in science, for that matter), she expanded on what was essentially a fortuitous personal discovery, began experimenting, developed a theory, put it to the test, and eventually developed the treatment approach that is now EMDR.
So what the heck is it? | Jack Challem See book keywords and concepts | Try to avoid talking on your cell phone while walking, though, because the distraction will slow down your pace.

So plan to increase your walking time and distance over the coming weeks. | Jack Challem See book keywords and concepts | At least once a week, while walking across a parking lot or through a store, I inadvertently startle people who are busy talking on their cell phones.
