Name: EMDR Tapping Video: 100 BPM & 50Hz Hum | For Intrusive Thoughts and Anxiety by EMDR Space
Duration: 2 h

Introduction:
EMDR, or bilateral stimulation, has been shown to have a calming effect on people. Although it is primarily used for treating PTSD, it also has potential to be used for other conditions such as anxiety, panic attacks, sleep disorders, pain management, and phobias. Compared to other calming techniques like meditation, breathing exercises, or CBT, bilateral stimulation requires less conscious effort, as you only need to focus on the stimulus. 
By using a low-frequency sound, you can make a speaker vibrate, allowing you to use ordinary speakers as a substitute for the more expensive medical EMDR buzzers or tappers.

Usage:
Hold the speakers in your hand and increase the volume until you feel the vibration. Remember to turn down the volume of other videos. At the same time, don’t try to suppress the disturbing thoughts; instead, let them flow. Over time, the intensity of these thoughts should decrease, and their occurrence should diminish with each session.
If the sound volume is insufficient, consider using browser extensions that increase the volume, such as “Sound Booster”. YouTube limits the sound volume of videos during uploading, so I cannot increase the volume from my end.
If you prefer a higher BPM (beats per minute), you can achieve this by increasing the video's playback speed: go to “Settings (gear icon, bottom-right video) -> Playback Speed”. From personal experience, a higher BPM is more effective for higher stress levels.
I recommend using bass-boosted portable Bluetooth speakers, as they offer better sound quality and are more comfortable to hold in your hand.

Disclaimer:
Do not use this app for self-therapy! Actual EMDR therapy is more complex and consists of eight steps, with bilateral stimulation being just one of them. This video is intended to be used in alleviating symptoms such as anxiety, flashbacks, panic attacks, and intrusive thoughts. It is not designed to replace actual therapy. If you suffer from PTSD and attempt self-therapy by intentionally recalling traumatic memories, it may not be effective and could potentially worsen your condition.
