WHAT IS TRE?
Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) are an amazing tool for helping the body to let go of deeply held patterns. We do a simple set of movements that cause your body to initiate a gentle muscular shaking response which allows you to release stress, tension, and trauma. Most people experience this shaking response as pleasant and soothing and, after the session, report feelings of peacefulness and well being. A few sessions are all that is needed to teach you the exercises and how to self-regulate during the process, at which point they can be done at home and unsupervised.

HOW IT WORKS
Stressful experiences often cause very deep muscle contractions designed to provide protection to the body to help it survive a stressful or traumatic event. It is essential to release this tension pattern after the event has ended to help prevent the development of physical pain and muscular constrictions.
Once the stressful event is over and we feel safe, our nervous system is designed to literally shake out deep muscular tension patterns and return to its normal relaxed state. However, due to our societal beliefs about shaking representing weakness or frailty, most of us have suppressed this shaking mechanism so that it no longer has the opportunity to naturally return our bodies to a healthy, relaxed state that allows us to thrive.
If you would like to learn TRE but have financial hardship and are unable to book a session, please message me and I will make sure you can attend a workshop for free.
