TRE: Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises

Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (or TRE®) is a well known technique and system of understanding stress and trauma release through the body.

Learn to access your bodies inborn mechanism to release and integrate tension, deep and superficial stress, trigger restoration and to find flow and inner silence though Neurogenic Tremoring.

What is TRE?

Neurogenic Tremoring is a natural, inborn mechanism found in all mammals—including you. It’s your body’s instinctive way to shake off stress, tension, and even trauma. This reflex, which originates deep in the brainstem, is part of your autonomic nervous system and operates outside of conscious control. It’s not something you do—it’s something your body remembers how to do, once you create the right conditions.

In nature, animals tremor after a stressful event to reset their systems. Humans have this same capacity, but in most cultures, we’ve learned to suppress it—mistaking the tremor response for a sign of weakness or loss of control. In truth, this shaking is a powerful form of self-regulation, built into your biology.

Through simple exercises, you can gently reawaken this response and allow the body to do what it was designed to do: release stored patterns of stress and return to balance. This process—called TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises)—was developed by Dr. David Berceli, who recognized the deep healing potential of this innate reflex.

Neurogenic Tremoring doesn’t just feel different from voluntary movement—it is different. You don’t control the tremors; instead, you relax and allow them to move through your system in their own rhythm. The result is a deep sense of calm, clarity, and connection—physically, emotionally, and often even spiritually.

At Integrated Human, we view this tremor mechanism as a force of nature—a biological inheritance that supports your evolution, integration, and growth from the inside out.

How we use it at The Integrated Human

At Integrated Human, we use TRE not just as a method of release—but as a pathway to embodiment, self-regulation, and inner transformation.

Our approach blends neurogenic tremoring with other practices like HeartMath, breathwork, and guided inner work. This creates a safe, integrative space where deeper insights and change can unfold naturally. TRE helps soften resistance in the body, shift old patterns, and anchor new ways of being—physically, emotionally, and energetically.

You can explore TRE with us in a variety of ways, depending on your needs and level of experience:

In-person

Online

TRE doesn’t require effort or control. You simply create the space, and your body does the rest. Over time, you’ll find more calm, more clarity, and more connection—to your body, your emotions, and your life.

With Special Guest David Berceli

Siv Jøssang Shields

Siv has been teaching TRE since 2010 to over a 1000 people both locally and abroad. She is in collaboration with dr David Berceli, the founder of TRE, and colleague Alex Greene to develop and spread the technique on a global plane.

Neurogenic Tremoring is a uniquely wonderful experience, gentle, yet powerful as you unleash your body’s own Force of Nature.

We can almost guarantee a unique experience unlike anything you have had before, or give a deeper understanding of an experience you might already have had. Most people leave their Neurogenic Tremoring experience with a sense of calm, peace and wonder.
Looking forward to seeing you there.

Release stress, tension, trauma, unfold into the flow state continuum and experience true calm and inner silence.

Big promise, and we believe it to be true. We have not seen a method as easily accessible and as effective in all of these areas and yet so gentle and open to mastering self regulation.

Why so? we believe it is a simple answer to that – because this is our genetic inheritance. It is a built in mechanism in our autonomic nervous system that we all have, so it’s completely natural for us to enter it.

This is also why it lends it self so well to be combined with other types of inner work like hypnotic journeys and breathwork.
