Two main ideas when it comes to EAD:
1.) just keep breathing
2.) let yourself let go

“The Muscle Of The Soul”
The Psoas muscle has the largest network of sympathetic nerves (stress response) than in any other part of the body.
The Psoas plays a role in our FIGHT OR FLIGHT response.
When we find ourselves in a FOF response, typically us tightly wound humans do nothing to get rid of that energy after the FOF is set in motion.
The Parasympathetic Response is what needs to be triggered in order for us to actually move through the Fight Or Flight response.
The Parasympathetic Response is the rest and repair phase, in order for this to happen we need to
1. Feel safe 2. Shake off discharge of chemical reactions from the body.

THE SHAKE: a natural movement to shake off the FOF response, and move stuck energy ( trauma, anxiety ) out of the body.

The shake has been long practiced in many ancient communities, up until today. As well as in each EAD class.
