We all walk around carrying more tension and baggage in our bodies and lives than we need to. I love TRE's ability to provide us all with a way of kwing that our bodies can take care of us, matter how stressful the situation. As a community mental health provider for more than 20 years, I have worked intensely with people who have felt traumas of all kind, as well as people who are chronically exposed to trauma as counselors and staff. My long-time training in creating personal rituals for healing and thriving enriches my abilities and understanding of TRE. Helping people uncover their body's natural superpower helps empower people to fight "stress plaque buildup" that can lead to feeling overwhelmed and deadened inside. For me, TRE builds hope- hope stemming from release and from the confidence that we have an extra, autimatic tool to assist us anytime we are faced with stressful situations.
