Summary: I'm always on the lookout for gentle, least triggering trauma recovery processes. I've found another one! We’re all hip to the fact that we hold trauma not only in our minds and psyches but also in our bodies. But once you know that, what do you do about? Traditional trauma treatment seeks to heal your emotional wounds and psychological fractures. Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) help to heal the impact of trauma on your body. The benefits are huge, including reduced symptoms of PTSD, increased energy, improved sleep, increased resiliency, decreased anxiety and a slew of others. On this week's show the founder of TRE, Dr. David Berceli, spoke about: his own traumatic past, and how he healed the difference between the neurological, physiological and psychological elements of healing how he developed TRE, how and why it works, plus how you could experience it why you don't have to talk about your trauma to heal what your body wants to do after trauma - and how you can help it two instinctual responses to trauma you can learn how to use in recovery Later in the show, I also interviewed Dr. Kim Dennis about the role of memory in recovery - why you can lose memories and how to heal if you have.
