Trauma & Tension Release Exercises (TRE®)

Trauma & Tension Release Exercises (TRE®) are a gentle, body-based practice designed to support the nervous system in releasing deep, chronic stress and stored tension. Through a series of simple movements, the body is guided into a natural reflex of gentle tremoring—an innate mechanism that helps discharge excess activation from the muscles and nervous system.
This trembling response is not forced; it is the body’s own intelligent way of returning to balance. Much like animals instinctively shake after stress, TRE allows the human body to safely release what it no longer needs to hold.
TRE supports the body in shifting from survival mode into a state of rest, regulation, and resilience. Over time, this practice can help restore a sense of safety, ease, and connection within oneself.
Benefits of TRE may include:
Reduction of stress and anxiety
Release of muscular tension and holding patterns
Improved nervous system regulation
Greater emotional resilience and grounding
Enhanced relaxation and body awareness
Support in trauma recovery and overall wellbeing
TRE is suitable for many people and can be practiced gently and at one’s own pace. The focus is not on reliving trauma, but on listening to the body and allowing it to unwind naturally.
Through consistent practice, TRE invites a deeper relationship with the body—one based on trust, presence, and self-compassion.

Endometriosis is not just pain.
It is a daily relationship with your own body.
With unpredictability.
With fatigue.
With tension that does not always go away with medication.

For many people, a diagnosis of endometriosis
means more than just treatment.
It means a change in lifestyle.
The pace, The way we eat, rest,
plan our day.

And sometimes, the way we look at ourselves.
Because when the body hurts for a long time,
the nervous system learns
to be in constant readiness.
In tension.
In alertness.
In ‘I have to endure’.

And this is where many people discover
that they need something more than just survival.

TRE ®️ does not cure endometriosis.
But for many, it becomes a support in what
is most difficult:
in everyday functioning with the disease.

It helps:
-to get out of fight mode, even for a moment
-to give the body a signal of safety
-to release the tension that has been building up for weeks and months
-to feel that the body is not the enemy.

Sometimes the greatest relief is not the absence of pain,
but the moment when the body no longer has to
carry everything on its own.

For many people, TRE®️ becomes
one of the elements of self-care,
alongside treatment, diet, physiotherapy, conversation and rest.

Not instead of but along with, together...

Because living with endometriosis is not just about ‘coping’.
It's about learning how to be gentle with yourself.
How to listen to your body.
How to give it support, not just make demands.
If you live with endometriosis,
your experience matters.
Your fatigue is understandable.
And your body deserves care at the level of the nervous system as well.

I love planning activities and classes for children !!!!
I deeply believe in methods supporting children development through play ,experience and movement .

I always strive to ensure that my working methods are not only supportive, but also encourage children to be themselves and to open up with curiosity to the world
and people around them.

I want them to trust themselves and their bodies,
to find freedom and expression in movement ,improvisation and play .

I want to show , that learning can be fun...
That It can be interesting and engaging for all the senses.

At Alchemy of Movement, I strive to make every child feel safe enough to always be themselves, to create and play with their whole being.

As a young child, one of my clients learnt to dissociate when her parents were arguing. When I first started treating her, and didn’t understand the dissociation model I now work with, we both thought the sessions were productive because she consistently reported a warm, floating quality. A space where her body did not constrain her.

However, her symptoms never changed.

It took me over a year to work out what was going on. Her healing started when she made friends with her ‘boring’ body.

Most people dissociate most of the time, and the pleasant, dream-like quality in dissociation is often confusing. Dissociation is surprisingly common and people frequently enjoy being dissociated. Being in a body is hard work. It is a constant negotiation to clearly map the size, shape and weight of the body.

Many people can misinterpret the dreamy floaty quality of dissociation as an expansive, spiritual, healing experience. I have treated many long term meditators, yoga teachers and spiritual searchers. The relationship to the body offered through an understanding of trauma and dissociation has been surprising and beneficial for many of them. It is essential to not be too quick to let go of the body.

Before we can transcend our body we have to have a body.

For most of us there is a lifetime of work involved in exploring our flesh.

Deepening into our bodies is the necessary step that allows us to widen our perceptual horizons and drop into deeper tides and stillness. It is true that the sense of the body can become much more diffuse and fade into the background. However the form is never lost, as in dissociation, and is always available for our return.

The problem of pain and trauma is that our brains and nervous systems are like the worst back seat driver ever - always predicting danger and always trying to overprotect.

That’s why I work with embodied approaches to ease trauma, and my preferred tool is Trauma and tension Releasing Exercises (TRE).

TRE® is a simple set of exercises that trigger a natural tremor reflex in the body. It is a safe, natural process to re-boot overprotective reflexes.

Think of shaking as a reboot to the nervous system. In stress and trauma our brain defaults to old, habitual, protective patterns. Involuntary shaking is a burst of good news from the shaking muscles direct to the central nervous system. The signals generated when tremoring actively create new neural pathways inside the brain.

There are three main things going on when we teach TRE:

1. Education that people are not ‘mad, bad or broken’. Helping people understand how primitive protective reflexes work is very powerful. Education is an effective tool for change.

2. Training in mind-body interaction. We teach how to relate to intense feelings in a grounded and self-regulated way. TRE is about releasing tension and about 'waking the body up'. Shaking is used to support connection and find safety. There is a deep acknowledgement of dissociative states and a long, slow journey to embodied safety.

3. Shaking is a novel and interesting stimulus to a stuck organism. Sometimes its quite wonderful to let primitive reflexes run your body and to learn how to go into and out of shaking. In the right context, the feelings generated by shaking can be a powerful stimulus to come out of old, fixed habits. New stimuli, approached with safety and curiosity, can support learning and growth.

A great way to begin your exploration of TRE is by joining an intro day, where we teach a simple, accessible toolkit to help you deal with the challenges of these times. See the link in my bio to find out more about my upcoming trainings.

My goal as a bodyworker is to help people - whether they are working with trauma, pain or anxiety - is to reconnect to a sense of wholeness and include more in their sense of self.

Embodiment is key to this process - when we feel at home in the space bounded by the skin, we feel less defended and fragmented in our internal world, and more connected to the flows, movements, resources and aliveness inside of us.

This in turn allows us to feel safer to connect to others, to nature, to mystery, to all of life that isn’t human, and to a richer experience of being alive.

One of the important connections I’ve seen in my clinic work and research about the connection between embodiment and health is this: when we can’t feel, it’s hard to heal

To truly feel the size, shape and weight of our body is surprisingly tricky - I see this in my clinic work often. The struggle to map our bodies is predictive of poor outcomes when it comes to our experience of pain, anxiety and trauma.

In trauma, many people dissociate, shut down, or immobilise to protect themselves. Although this gesture of disconnecting is useful, necessary and enables us to survive traumatic situations, it means we can lose contact with the size, shape and weight of our bodies and it can be hard to return to the body.

Over the years, I’ve seen that maintaining a thread of good connection with the body predicts good outcomes when it comes to health.

Embodiment tools form a key focus on my two-year Art of Touch biodynamic craniosacral therapy (BCST) training. If you’d like to explore this approach to safe, relational touch either to add a new modality to your work as a health professional, or as well as a way to start a career in an exciting and evolving therapy, please see the link in my bio.
