🔹We love hearing success stories- and how the Trager Approach is supporting clients, patients, and all who receive it!

🔹Meet Judy Fasone, Somatic Movement Educator : A Registered Nurse (1989), a board-certified Advanced Holistic Nurse (2012), a Health and Wellness Nurse Coach (2012), and a Senior Trager practitioner, Tutor and Instructor Trainee in private practice since 2000. shares,

🔹"One of my clients has been coming since 2018 fairly regularly. Her healing journey had some serious highs and lows, physically and emotionally, and I feel fortunate to be part of her team from the start. Today she shared,
🔹🔹🔹🔹"You have an energetic boundary that says we are working together, no expectation, nothing to fix. I don't quite know how to explain it but it leaves me feeling like a partner in my healing process, and that is so refreshing".🔹🔹🔹
Her happiness today, and news that she is working with her physician to get off the last of her medications, was exciting. Her body and mind are free to return to her original self. Dr. Trager's way of being with tissue and the soul that inhabits the tissue is gentle and steady. Encouragement and support through our language and our gentle, questioning touch is needed for lasting change, and is a hallmark of the Trager Approach. Today she left me with this quote and said she felt like she was "walking on air" ! Celebrate!"

🔹Thanks again for sharing Judy! We are so glad to hear this good news!

🌊Inviting the Tissues: During a Trager class, Joseph Rodin Seminars shares how Trager invites the tissues to be more at ease...through inviting the whole body into the process....LISTEN IN!

🌊“Thinking about comfort, relaxation, peace and the natural ease of movement is not the same as actually feeling it...feeling and connecting with it is a different type of experience. When the mind and the body are calm and in peace, we experience a feeling state that reveals itself not only to ourselves but also to those around us. All of us can sense the presence of a person who is internally comfortable and at peace.”

🌊“The basis of TRAGER is felt movement, and a response to it. If nothing is felt, nothing new can develop...Each person brings a different body, and a different history. By touch the practitioner senses the momentary, individual range of movement and state of tissue and acts accordingly.”
-”TRAGER: A Question of Ease”

🔹"Perhaps the most important three ingredients of the Trager® Approach are
🔹MOVEMENT
🔹AWARENESS of FEELING and SENSATION
🔹and a FOCUS on CHANGING the MIND of the client.
🔹The practitioner wants to create a new set of feeling experiences in the client through gentle guided movement".
-Jack Blackburn, "Journey of Bodywork & Movement Therapies"

Trager® works with the BODY and THE MIND- in a fluid and deeply attuned manner...one feeds the other in reciprocal patterns, and introduces new awarenesses and possibilities for states of being. It's truly gentle and profound.

What is lighter?
What is freer?
What is softer?
What is more beautiful?..By asking, you are developing the power and potential of your unconscious mind.”
