She emphasizes that the process of relearning new neural pathways varies per individual, with no universal method, and suggests exploring Tension Myoneural Syndrome (TMS) personality styles as a self‑assessment tool. Viewers are invited to contact her for further guidance and are encouraged to Google "TMS personality types" to see if any resonate with them.
