Why You Will Love TRE®!

I had a tremendous amount of response from many of you to my blog post last week about TRE® (Tension, Stress & Trauma Release Exercise).  So I’ve decided to continue with that theme this week!

There are lots of benefits to TRE®, but the main reason I love it is because it helped me realize the complex relationship between my muscles, brain, and nervous system.  These three kept me safe as a child, and they have continued to protect me during the dark, messy parts of my healing journey.

TRE® is the practice of self-regulation.  It guides me deeper and deeper into my body that has held tension, trapped toxic beliefs and emotions for decades.  It also protects me from overwhelm, which is when I’m most likely to experience the symptoms of PTSD.  

TRE® has given me the strength to welcome these feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, frustration, sadness, grief, and depression.  I no longer see them as a threat.  They appear to let me know something inside me needs to be addressed.  When that happens, TRE® provides a pathway for me to manage and process these overwhelming emotions.

TRE
® has taught me to trust my body and trust the healing process.   I can even listen to music and distract my mind, while TRE® helps my body release tension and stress naturally.  No need to supervise the process.  No need to control it.  Wow, right?

As a Certified TRE® Provider, I teach my clients this incredible trauma-releasing tool.  If you’d like to communicate your feelings more effectively, to understand why certain situations are upsetting, and to release deep tension patterns in your muscles that are sabotaging your healing, consider TRE®.  

Chronic tension and toxic beliefs trapped in the body are the cause of our emotional and physical pain.  TRE® gives us a way to easily find and release them.  It’s no wonder I love it so much.  And you will, too!

Accelerate Your Healing With TRE®!

We all know your mind will eventually forget some of the details of the abuse or trauma you’ve survived.  But your body never forgets.

Like I’ve mentioned in other blog posts, trapped trauma must be released.  It’s nothing more than emotional pain.  If allowed to fester in the body for weeks, years, or decades it will eventually manifest as physical pain in the form of illness, allergies, chronic pain, etc.

TRE® (Trauma Release Exercises) created a major shift in my healing from trauma, and the results were truly surprising.  I knew I could heal my body, mind, and spirit.  I just didn’t know how.  TRE® was the tool that gave me access to the trauma buried so deep inside me I couldn’t reach it any other way.

I’ve been using TRE® on a regular basis for two years now.  The experience has been both humbling and powerful.  It has strengthened my faith in the fact that abuse and trauma survivors like you and I can overcome.  Yes, we can heal and restore!

As many of you know, I was so impressed with the results from TRE® that I decided to become a Certified TRE® Provider.  I’ve recently completed my TRE® certification.  It was a long and arduous training process, but I did it.  Yay!

Now I’m looking forward to helping my coaching clients use TRE® as a self-care tool.  If you’re interested in experiencing the amazing healing benefits of TRE®, send me an email at svava@educate4change.com.  Tell me about the trauma or abuse you survived and describe your trauma symptoms.  I am happy to guide you to an appropriate provider. 

After using TRE® for over two years, I believe it’s one of the best investments you’ll ever make in your healing.  Just 3 or 4 sessions with a Certified TRE® Provider are all you’ll need.  Then you can use this valuable self-care tool to rid your body of tension, stress or  trapped trauma.

Best of all, TRE® will help you keep your mind, body, and soul healthy for the rest of your life.  The more you use it the better it works. Wow.  How cool is that?!

How to Make Peace with Your Emotions

You can’t heal from abuse or trauma without learning how to feel your emotions.  For someone who has never experienced abuse, what I just said must sound weird.  Doesn’t everyone know how to feel their feelings?  No, they don’t.  Not us.

This is especially true for child abuse survivors.  We grew up unprotected, watching violence, listening to violence, and experiencing violence.  The only way to survive this type of toxic environment was to shut down any awareness of the raging emotions inside us.  It wasn’t safe to express our emotions.  It wasn’t safe to talk about our emotions.  It wasn’t safe.

When I began my healing journey, I had no idea how deeply I had suppressed all my emotions.  I was completely unaware of the repressed sadness, grief, outrage, and anger festering inside me.  

As my awareness grew, I could see how shame had crippled almost every area of my life.  For example, I’ll never forget the time I was arguing with my husband.  At one point I was no longer making sense.  All I cared about was being right.  Suddenly, I realized this was shame rearing its ugly head.  I stopped arguing and told my husband he was right.  And he was.  

Practice feeling your emotions by becoming aware of your body.  That’s the best place to start.

Scan your body.  Do you feel discomfort, tightness, or stress anywhere?  Where is it in your body?  Focus on the emotion in that area until you can name it.  Then feel it.  

Is this emotion a response to something that just happened?  Or is it a response to a situation from the past?  Emotions from the past are stored as trapped energy in the body.  They need to be acknowledged and released by gently allowing them to move through you.  Let them go.    

Make peace with your emotions.  Practice finding, feeling, and releasing them in a healthy way.  Soon you’ll discover a wonderful truth: your emotions are your friends.

Is it difficult for you to feel all of your emotions?  Is the thought of doing this just too overwhelming to consider?  If so, I can help!  Follow (this link) or call 619-889-6366 to reserve a one-hour coaching session with me ($100).  Let me help you heal your life.
