I always get the patient to try to put themselves in the situation which creates the emotion and then adjust what comes up.

A patient's OD was 'Yes' to emotional trauma. I located the time by OD and asked if anything emotionally traumatic happened to her during that time. She told me that she was living in Zimbabwe, married to a man taking drugs, who had locked her up in a single room, removed door handles and boarded up the window for two years before she escaped.

I asked if she would be able to put herself back to that situation. She closed her eyes and tears immediately flooded down her cheeks. I used the OD to locate and clear all that came up, mostly cranial but also panic pattern. Then after talking a while, I asked her to close her eyes again and go back - there was now no OD, no problem, and she said she felt absolutely fine about the situation now.
