 =======Imprinting=======
 IEMT was originally conceived as a way of working with problematic imprinting that can occur behaviourally, emotionally and within the realm of identity.
+In Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT), "imprinting" refers to the process by which emotional responses and identity states are shaped by past experiences. Imprinting captures how a person learns to feel certain emotions based on significant events or repeated experiences. These emotional imprints become embedded in their emotional responses, influencing how they react to similar situations in the future.
+Imprinting can also occur at a deeper, identity level, where aspects of a person's sense of self are shaped by their experiences. IEMT addresses both emotional imprints and identity-level imprints, helping individuals understand the origins of their emotional and behavioral patterns and enabling them to change these responses to lead a more balanced and healthy life.
