TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) is a powerful method for experiencing relief from stress, anxiety and trauma, by releasing deeply held tension in the body.

TRE® unravels chronic patterns of stress and tension stored in the muscles, and discharges stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol, by activating the body’s natural ability to shake. This shaking process occurs through accessing the body’s tremor mechanism existing in all mammals, which is the body’s most natural way of coming down from the fight-flight-freeze response. In this four-week course you will learn the technique and be able to safely continue with TRE® on your own at home, experiencing profound benefits to your emotional, mental and physical wellbeing over time.

To learn more about TRE® and its pioneer, Dr David Berceli, visit http://www.traumaprevention.com/.

Benefits - over the four weeks you will learn a set of seven exercises designed to fatigue the muscles, invoking the body’s innate ability to shake. After the exercises we then lie on the mat, remaining present, and allowing the tremors to move through the body naturally. Most people report a feeling of relaxation while doing TRE® and others experience a physical or emotional release during the session.

This course will be in small group students, so everyone can get the attention they might need during the course.

Benefits of regular TRE practice:

• less worry and anxiety
• less pain and tension
• improved sleep, mood and digestion
• more mental clarity
• ability to deeply relax
• improved relationships

WHAT TO WEAR - something loose and comfortable that won't restrict your movement. We will be doing some light exercises and stretches. There are changing facilities at the venue.

TRE group class might not be the most suitable setting for people with severe trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, burnout and serious health conditions or those who find it very challenging to self-regulate (unable to calm down when emotionally distressed).*

.

PREGNANCY - Learning TRE in the first trimester is not recommended.

.

RECENT INJURIES & SURGERIES - It is best to give your body at least 3 months to heal after a surgery or serious injury before doing TRE.*
