These challenges made Gunilla Hamne simplify the
procedure and develop the version that is now called TTT by
skipping the muscle testing, using the same points for every
person and exchanging the eye movements for two deep
breaths. The results were very positive and the method
practical to use, teach and multiply.
With TTT we don’t use set-up phrases or affirmations, partly because they
can be re- traumatising and because many people find it very comfortable
dealing with their traumatic experiences silently and internally, leaving out
the verbal expression of words and concentrating instead on the process
inwardly.
And as mentioned before: not using words means also not having to
mention what one has lived through,
=be it connected to shame,
-guilt or
-sensitive information that one would rather keep inside,
especially when working with groups. If you are doing TTT in groups we
recommend for example the Somatic Poem as a setup to connect with the
emotions instead.
We have simplified the Trauma Tapping Technique further, making it
transferable and content free so that large groups of people can experience
the benefits without the need for personal questions, abreactions or spoken
words. This is especially useful and important when constrained by
language barriers which can largely be skirted by this approach and make
TTT eminently practical.
We consider the key components of TTT in the way we teach and spread it
to be:
# Content free
# Replicable by anyone
