Shake It Off: How Shaking Restores Safety In The Body.

Today we’re exploring something that lives beneath language… beneath thought… even beneath emotion.

It’s the body’s own rhythm of release — a trembling, shaking, quivering movement that we’ve long been taught to suppress.

It's something called it TRE — Trauma and Tension Release Exercises — a simple but profound practice that invites the body to remember how to let go.

When animals experience threat, they shake.
After the chase, after the freeze, their bodies tremor — releasing the charge of survival. And then, just like that, they return to grazing. Calm. Present. Reset.
Humans, on the other hand, have learned to override this natural wisdom. We hold it all in. We stay composed, controlled, contained.
We call it resilience — but really, it’s often just endurance.

Over time, this unspent tension builds up — in our muscles, our fascia, our breath, our sleep, our relationships.
It becomes the silent language of the body — tightness, anxiety, inflammation, burnout.
Our systems are still trying to complete a story that never had an ending.

TRE is a way to finish that story.
