Next Mid Wales introductory workshop to this effective, gentle and safe somatic/bodywork practise designed to release tension, anxiety and trauma called TRE.

The workshop is for absolute beginners as well as those who want a refresher or simply to connect to other shakers...

DM if you have a specific enquiry about the workshop or TRE.

Please feel free to pass this on to others if you think it would be of interest. Thank you.

"Fern, thank you for a great introduction to TRE. I feel like the schedule was perfect, with the right amount of time for each segment - Getting to know each other, learning about TRE, working up to it, practicing, and chill out and debriefing.

I know everyone says TRE is something you can do at home, but having a physical space to do it with an intimate, small group while someone is leading was the perfect way to get started with it in my opinion." (participant)

TRE assists the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension, and trauma.

I’m running Introductory workshops for beginners and drop-in sessions for existing shakers as well as residential retreats to learn TRE in Machynlleth, mid Wales.

TRE is a wonderful self-regulation tool devised by David Berceli. He discovered a simple way to self-induce therapeutic tremors. ‘Exercises that produce tremors bypass the thinking brain, giving us direct access to the unconscious reptilian brain’ (Berceli 2008).

In TRE a series of seven exercises tire out some of the big muscles in the hips. With encouragement, practise and curiosity it is possible to turn on and turn off shaking in the pelvis and, eventually, all over the body. The tremors in TRE helped to reboot the nervous system.

We can use three statements to help understand working with and overcoming trauma.

‘There is trauma.’
Terrible things happen to human beings.

‘We can overcome trauma.’
We are wired to survive. We would not be here as a human species unless we had evolved ways of recovering from that lion attack (or sudden loss of a loved one, or being abused, or being in an accident)...

‘Healing trauma is about meeting the body.’
In trauma, old parts of the brain change how the body works. By paying attention to feelings in the body and learning to self regulate we can reboot the brain.

From David Bercelli, creator of Trauma Release Exercises (TRE).
