Sun 4pm: TRE: Releasing Tension & Freeing Your Body of Trauma with Mike Thomas

Tension/Trauma Releasing Exersice (TRE®) is a therapeutic modality that “shakes off” excess stored stress/tension/trauma energy from bodily tissues. It is soothing, energizing, and expands somatic awareness and capacity to feel.

Several gentle movements warm up the body, ground the feet, and establish a state of nervous system relaxation and safety. The release of oxytocin in the body during TRE approximates the experience of mother-infant bonding.

Unconscious, autonomic nervous system patterns allow the body to release what is no longer needed at an individual pace. This can be considered a “bottom-up” regulation experience, supporting the capacity to learn, grow, heal, and allow your body more choice and intentionality through releasing unconscious blocks to your greatest expression of self.

TRE® goes hand-in-hand with deep inner-child work to support integrating unresolved inner conflicts that get in the way of aligning conscious will and unconscious survival mechanisms of the primal level of self.
