Uniquely designed for sufferers of stress-related insomnia, this app harnesses the power of bilateral stimulation (bls) to turn off tension and worry and restore normal sleep functioning. Bilateral stimulation is a treatment element of EMDR therapy, a psychological treatment method which harnesses your brains ability to process sensory information to de-activate the physical and mental distress which inhibits sleep. The resulting normalization of brain activity creates the conditions for sleep to happen, naturally and effortlessly. If you suffer from insomnia related to PTSD, medical problems or just general stress and anxiety this app is for you. This app works best with a good internet connection and headphones.
