This is a needed and timely chat with Leela about TRE (Trauma Releasing Exercises) -- There are ways to recalibrate and heal which we all need after the mass trauma event we've been put through in the last three years, this is one of those ways.

If you know you need in person support to start your practice, use the provider locator at www.traumaprevention.comTension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) is an easy to learn healing approach that can assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma. The exercises are designed to encourage the safe activation of a natural reflex mechanism that soothes the Vagus Nerve. When this shaking/vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance. After a couple of sessions with a provider you can use the method on your own, allowing you to take control of your well being at your own pace.

The following video gives a clear and easy to understand example of the natural shaking mechanism in a prey animal that escapes a predator. (no blood), our buddy gets away!) The Impala moved from a freeze state, into a reactivation of the sympathetic nervous system and then shakes, releasing the tension and adrenaline delivered when it was in danger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QgglTik6G4 .

Attached it the Polyvagal Bell curve I used to explain the physiological and downregulation cycle in the body during the show.

A very kind offer: "if people are a member of your community and they find my rates cost prohibitive, I am willing to work with them at a rate they can afford."
