Bilateral stimulation is a technique that involves alternately stimulating the left and right sides of your brain which can be done using different techniques including bilateral music or tones or eye movements side to side or tapping. This type of back-and-forth movement has been shown to have a calming effect on the brain and nervous system.Bilateral stimulation helps transition the body from fight-or-flight mode to a more restful state when done enough, it can also help with thinking through problems or making sense of them. Enhancing communication between the brain’s hemispheres: During bilateral stimulation, the alternating left-right pattern activates both hemispheres of the brain, allowing them to communicate more effectively with each other. This communication helps to create new neural pathways (problem solving and processing).
