Possibly. But the cool thing about TRE is that it clears out generational trauma - the one that you inherited and aren’t aware of.

I don’t really have any traumas that I’m aware of so I’m just trusting the process of TRE.

Latest thing that I noticed with TRE is that my sexual stamina got much better. I wonder how would sexual subs like Diamond feel at the end stages of TRE

I did a practice last night, about 15 mimutes. I stopped because my body stopped abruptly.

All the tremors were focused on the right side of my body, specially my back. I was tremoring from my pelvis alm the way to my right shoulder and then into my arm.

Its funny because thats the same location my chiropractor is working on after reading my body autonomic responses.

Had a great sleep afterwards.

Which ones(exercises tre) do you do before sleep?

Cool stuff, you all are sharing got me very interested. Already using subs, transmissions and spiritual based tools for healing and release of traumas but might prefer something more body wise and raw

I use the standard TRE routine

I dont use it to have a better sleep though, thats just a nice bonus of practicing before bed, your body is all soft and relaxed.

theres a lot of videos in youtube that guide you through the process, just find the one that goes at a rhythm thats comfortable for you.

Are TRE exercises the same/similar to somatic exercises?

I’m thinking of buying a 30 day somatic exercises course, but don’t know if it’s worth it.

Thanks in advance

Did a 25 min session just now. Felt a lot of relief from an old leg injury, that happened about a decade back.

I thought it was completely cured, It looks like there were still some lingering things.

I’ve just watched the last video posted in here.
It reminded me of my time with my Catholic-Pentacostal community.
Whenever we worshiped and started asking for healing these and similar kinds of tremors started.
Sometimes people had to lie on the floor and their legs started shaking, sometimes it was just spasmic waving motions and all kinds of strange movements, often pretty fast.
We felt how it helped. It wasn’t uncommon that someone started crying heavily and old emotions came up.

And now I see that you can introduce, what we experienced purely as a divine gift, voluntarily through exercise.

Noice.

Yeah, many religious/spiritual practices are actually just ways to induce some healing mechanisms in the body. I’ve been really losing my faith in spiritual things the more I learn…

This is just one example. There’s also an example of how loud chanting would improve breathing drastically - if you are familiar with Buteyko and its theory, chanting does basically the same thing if done properly. Or even better because humming gives additional Nitric Oxide boost. And people were thinking it’s just spirituality gives them benefits…

Still I see a valid point in spirituality.
We never started any of this voluntarily, no one knew why we did it. It was rather in a transcending atmosphere when suddenly this movement started on its own.
I actually see some divine intervention here.
When the divine is leading you towards healing through natural processes, the way it was intended, perhaps even paving the way towards discovering this principles for healing in general.

I’m not sure what exactly you mean by Somatic Exercises, would you care to share a link to the course and we can comment further?

TRE itself is a minor spinoff of the whole-body system of Bioenergetics, as written about by Alexander Lowen.

Hey this is the course I’m looking to buy:

This is what Wikipedia says about somatics which is better than how I would explain it:

Somatics is a field within bodywork and movement studies which emphasizes internal physical perception and experience. The term is used in movement therapy to signify approaches based on the soma, or “the body as perceived from within”,[1][2] including Skinner Releasing Technique, Alexander technique, the Feldenkrais Method, Eutony, Rolfing Structural Integration, among others.[3] In dance, the term refers to techniques based on the dancer’s internal sensation, in contrast with “performative techniques”, such as ballet or modern dance, which emphasize the external observation of movement by an audience.[4][5] Somatic techniques may be used in bodywork, psychotherapy, dance, or spiritual practices.

It has given me some releases, it just seems more targeted than tre.

I’ll likely do both if I do purchase the course

P.S it says it’s for women but really it’s for everyone, I think they just mentioned women in order for targeted marketing as women are more likely to buy these courses

Just wanted to put this here even though it’s not directly related to TRE - it is related to the mind/body connections

Awesome.

Yeah, I practice Bioenergetics that uses many different positions to directly target neurotic holding patterns and muscular tightening from many different positions and angles and across the whole body. I find it far more broad and deep than TRE, personally.

If it’s given you some releases, keep it up! Good things are happening.

Nice, thanks for sharing this.

I’ll check out bioenergetics too.

And thanks for the encouragement too :grinning:

I’ve tried this a few times. It feels great, felt like I’ve taken a good nap or like after a nice session of meditation.

Don’t know about the whole trauma/spiritual perspective, but the benefit of feeling like a good relaxation or stress relieving exercise makes it worth for me to keep experimenting with.

Like any modality, tread carefully and do it with an expert if you’re unsure. You have been warned. 🫡

Ok… Im bare footed in the grass in a park close to where I had my TRE session… just relaxing and integrating the experience.

The reason for booking a session is because I have a chronic inflammation in my left sacroiliac joint, for about 2 years now. Ive tried a lot of different approaches with all kind of results. The things is Im far better that what I used to feel, no more pain crisis, but Im not good, Im not healthy. I still have some weaknesses and a soft but constant pain, that sometimes makes my lower back tense up and get painful.

A while ago I decided that Im not gonna stop until I feel good in my body, recover strenght and flexibility, to enjoy having the body I have.
Chiropractor is good, but its lacking something for me.

I wanted a guided TRE session because you have no feedback whatching youtube.

The most important lesson I got today is you get further by going slower. Sometimes the tremors arrives with unpleasant emotions and I thought you just gotta breakthrough it. The TRE lady told me to stop everytime it got unpleasant (emotionally or physically) to let my body know that it is safe, that stress and alertness are not necessary. That at some point I might need to go through something like that, but thats not the goal.

TRE is not about pushing through pain, discomfort and negative emotions, it is about showing your body that it is safe to relax and feel good.

She also told me that the pauses in between the tremors and at the end of the session are just as important, so you can be aware of how your body responds and reacts to the process.

At the end of the session (about 1 hour long) I felt deeply relaxed and expanded, still do. Most notably I feel like a solid block of stone was removed from my body, a stone big enough to cover all the space between my stomach and pelvis. That was followed by an energetic expansion towards the outside.
I can feel the world through my sacral and plexus centers.

She recommended 4 sessions total and then to keep the practice on my own for as long as I want to.
