Trauma Release Exercise (TRE)

Instructor: Sherry Mills, MS, LCSW

 

Goal: The Trauma Release Process (TRP) seminar offers an understanding of how the body, brain and emotions are affected by trauma and/or chronic stress.  Unlike most teaching on this subject I’ll be giving a solution not just information re: “what happens”.  I’ll teach the Trauma Release Exercises (TRE).  This is a self-healing technique the participants can take home to use for their own healing and they can take the TRE's back to work to teach their clients.  This set of exercises are based on neurological, biological and anatomical functioning following trauma and are designed to aid the body in naturally releasing the held tension within the body and returning to the body homeostasis.  These exercises are drawn from non-traditional therapeutic approaches such as bioenergetics, tai chi, yoga and other eastern practices.  The TRE is designed to tap into the body’s natural functioning to process the internalized effects of trauma.
Anyone interested in how to assist clients in the healing of trauma or in the management of chronic stress will benefit from this class. This self-healing technique aids not only the clients we serve but it also helps those of us employed in high stress work environments. The TRE's are also highly effective in the release of stress and tension. Clinicians will find these exercises particularly useful in addressing their own stress management while working with traumatized clients and/or with the high emotional demands that come with working in the addictions field.  These exercises and this understanding of trauma and chronic stress will benefit addiction counselors over the course of their life-time working in the addictions field. These exercises strengthen resiliency within all who use them.
