Danielle Ivins-Fishman on Tension & Trauma Release Exercises (TRE®)
Our body holds tension and even past trauma. In this episode of Woman Worriers, host Elizabeth Cush talks with Danielle Ivins-Fishman about Tension & Trauma Release Exercises (TRE®) to reduce stress and anxiety.
“It’s almost like we’re stepping into the mystery of our body—but it’s a really innocent, very primal and very sweet part of us.”
Show Notes:
Talk therapy is a powerful tool for learning to manage stress and anxiety and to heal from past trauma. But tension and trauma don’t just exist in the mind. Our body stores them and they become etched in our nervous system. In this week’s episode of the Woman Worriers podcast, host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., interviews Danielle Ivins-Fishman, whose credentials include Certified TRE® Provider and Integrative & Trauma-Informed Coach. They talk about using Tension & Trauma Release Exercises to learn to listen to the bod and, get to know the nervous system in order to give ourselves what we truly need to connect to a meaningful and thriving life.
