About TRE (tension & trauma releasing exercises)
All around the world TRE is consistently liked by Veterans & Military Personnel because it provides a simple self-care technique to physically release stress, tension & trauma without requiring you to recall or talk about past events.
As TRE takes almost no mental focus or physical effort, it is easy & efficient & can be easily used simply lying on the floor or even in bed to help switch-off & get to sleep. Once learnt, TRE can be used in as little as 5-10 minutes with immediate calming effects & provides you with a self-care technique to release stress, tension & trauma on your own whenever & wherever you need to.
