Has anybody tried the TRE therapy?

Aka

Trauma Release Exercises/Experiencing.

Check it out on youtube, it's free and easy to learn. I find that it nicely builds on the work of 'Peter Levine - Healing Trauma' through the uninterrupted and unjudged feeling/experiencing of trauma related somatic symptoms in the form of tremors etc.

I will incorporate this into my routine in the coming days.

I've started using TRE again for the past month, as starting point for a daily, then 3-4 times a week emotional / reparenting work in mornings. I setup to let myself shake - which very often open/leads to grieving /sobbing; other times to feelings of intense fear and aloneness of my childhood.

I started following it up, or integrating it with an extended reparenting visualization, to then soothe the image of my abandoned, shaking / crying little boy, and have new mother and father figure and others around and soothing me.   

I've never really did the reparenting side, so that feels really good. Though sometimes I can not connect to it - or only when in deep feelings.
