I witnessed my cat doing a trauma release shake the other day. He came in limping, no open wounds but a little wet and roughed up looking. I speculated he had come into contact with the 5 geese that have recently moved into his frequent hunting ground. He came and lay next to me, then started shaking, as if in a cold tremble. He did that for some minutes, perhaps on and off for 10 minutes. Later he was all well, he limped a little for 24 hours. It was the first time I witnessed it and was really glad I knew what it was.
I shake/vibrate often, especially during meditation, yoga, and breathing exercises. It started about two years ago. I've been cleaning a lot of old energy from my past/familial line. I learned about tre and bioenergetics after I started shaking.
I wish you luck on your journey. I have been doing meditation regularly for 3 years now. Still a long way to go, but can relate to the shaking while meditating. I feel a lot lighter afterwards too
I experienced some kind of organic trauma reliese some time ago. I had to kill my rooster, and that was quite shocking 😮 i have studied Irene's videos, and even a little bit of SBSM, and i knew to just be with the experience and allow my body to express everything it wanted to. I felt the shock was fully expelled from my system 👍 even though i have a very traumatized nervous system and a long way to heal my body, im happy to say that these methods Irene teaches really work 😊
My husband died at home from cancer 4 months ago. I am a nurse and was able to do most of his care. I have been with many people when dying but none were like my husbands last 3-4 days. I have seen people just stop breathing or have Cheyne-Stokes breathing and then pass. My husband had three to 4 days of breathing like he was running a marathon and working hard to breathe. I would have passed from exhaustion after 4-6 hours of breathing like that. That memory haunts me like a nightmare. I try to not dwell on it because it is horrible but it keeps coming back. I don’t know how to deal with this.
Ever heard of Wm Hoff? He teaches a rapid breathe technique which may help you release it. Kind of like homeopathy...a dose of the bad to counter-balance the trauma. He might have been pumping his way to Heaven!
Sit quietly in a room by yourself, maybe blindfolded, get quiet and relaxed for like ten minutes, then deliberately remember the scene of his breathing, and try to re-feel both his and your own distress. Enter into and stay with the images, the memories, the emotions, everything. The painful emotions will arise of course. Express these painful emotions in whatever ways your body feels like expressing them. Crying, shaking, grimacing, sometimes waving or shaking my arms and hands, trembling, cranial trembling, sometimes kindof stomping in a weird stomping dance, sometimes growling or hissing like a threatened animal, sometimes curling up my fingers as if they’re claws (like animal/mammalian threat/defense behaviors) - these are how my body has expressed its traumatic stress. Your body will do some of the same things, others different. Do this, and stay with it. Keep expressing the stress and pain however your body seems to naturally want to. Stay with it for ten minutes, even thirty, if your body want to keep expressing. Afterward you’ll feel relieved, de-stressed and maybe a bit tired. Repeat a few days or a week later. Then again a few days later. Keep going. I’m like five months into this and it’s changing my life. My emotional world is way more stable and calm. My body sometimes wants to release trauma while I’m driving or scrambling eggs or whatever. And I do it.
Thank you for sharing what has helped you. I have not tried to stay with it before. It is so painful I want to push it away. I don’t think I will be free until I work through it.
Thank you for this vídeo. It came in around in a good timing. I admit that I think you dont talk much about shaking so you can avoid conditioning people from thinking its the “only” way or the “right” way. But I would appreciate if you could go a little deeper. Strangely since the first day I saw a vídeo of yours (and we can never stay with only one) my body listen to you in a way my mind didnt and I started having shaking responses. Spontaneously. Although I only (believe) felt a kind of completion once. Where I cried my soul out, my body shook, no memories and thinking attached, and after I felt light, cleaned, all good no feelings around it. It was truly a release. Now, what happens (most of the time) is that it comes in micro (and recorring) shakings, and I can never identify this happens when x or y, that triggers x or y. What I want to say is that it doesnt seem to come from a shock moment, rather from very very old shit. And even though I accept it and let it happens as it wants and try to stay with, sometimes I do feel that I should know something better, because it happens so much but most of the time is just why, for I dont know if it is actually *truly* releasing something or if its only manifesting something. You know? Please do go a little deeper, I know your courses are for this, but for us that are going through this and dont get this deeper part of the education, it can feel lonely and sometimes overwhelming that we cant understand and hold space and help the little creature inside of us. Thank you team
Hi , this maybe completely irrelevant to you but i thought it might help . My body used to shake at the slightest provocation for years, after experiencing bullying at school. Last year i stopped coffee and tea and my body no longer shakes at all in the same situations . I am in my fiftys . I wonder if you may need to get rid of caffeine gong through this time.
Been there and done all that pain in injury thing too, but a recent toe break resulted in me crying, sitting with it for several days, processing both the pain and swollen toe and bruising and praying and thanking my feet and in three days it was back to normal.
Have done tre years ago and I have been looking at resurrecting it again in my emotional healing processes. My body has spontaneously started shaking after a couple very gentle adjustments (mix of cranial sacral and chiropractic) and I knew it was some deep releasing that had found its time. I am able to move into that when, emotionally, I sense that somehow. And want to continue. Thank you for this video. synchro- nistically perfect my timed and I found it. ❤
I’m going to watch your videos. I do have “my” own systems of releasing traumas, I also tried tapping, Be Set Free Fas and others. Some mental traumas are gone. Few are hard to disconnect from. Especially health related episodes.
22.45 about re telling is fascinating very helpful Joe martino thank you, I tore my hamstring last year and the snapshots after the event is something I can relate to, I do anchor somatically but i still have fear regarding protecting my body. Very educational and useful video Irene lyon thank you.
The ladder story: something like that happened to me, only the upper end of the ladder was leaning on the wall with a stairway below the ladder, in other words if the upper end of the ladder tipped over the railing it was also supported with, I would have gone tumbling down the stairs probably breaking my neck. Luckily there were another wall that stopped the sliding. Keep in mind I had a can of paint and a brush in my hands. I did hurt my legs but luckily didn’t break anything. Interestingly it did affect my mind for long.
When I travel, I have a period of about four days after I arrive when I might have a crazy crying jag. I have known that it has to do with my chronic fatigue, brain fog, and body pain, but only now understand exactly what it is.
I'm confused. In the past I have read and watched you say that the shaking exercise does not work. You were very clear about that. Now you believe it? Did you learn more and change your mind? curious.
I believe that the difference is spontaneous shaking versus forced shaking. Shaking that occurs spontaneously is a healthy processing of shock trauma energy.
@@kaylee7518 You are incorrect. In the past she has made explicit claims that this exercise does not work. That it is malarkey, basically. That it does not get to the root of trauma. That it will not work. She’s obviously changed her mind. But maybe say that so you don’t confuse people who follow you?
@@ChronicPainNoMoreI did TRE , the trembling and my nervous system got extremely deregulated. After that I found Irene and I understood what she meant. Involuntary shaking in tired nervous system, without any regulation capabilities and understanding how to create even some safety can be quite dangerous. As with any other modality I would argue. Depends obviously how unregulated the nervous system is. Hope that makes sense
This is in essence what they are describing. I've done it involuntarily once in a safe space and it happened automatically i didn't know what was happening. The tremors started in my hands. 2nd time I was led by a TRE instructor.
I've fallen of the stairs (indoors) in 2012, still suffering the consequences daily. Thing is I had a severe concussion. For at least 4 months I lived in thick 'fog'. So I never processed it this way. How do you deal with that? Is it still possible to work through that trauma? (TBI, vertigo, tinnitus, neck pain etc.)

How do you separate from a traumatic health episode that happened few years ago, when one was literally passing out then coming back , “swirling” in out out of consciousness (light to darkenss) so to speak. It was sort of and epileptic vertigo or something like that that lasted a couple of hours

My 12 yo daughter is very sick with ME, POTS, allodynia and digestive issues. She was unable to even stand up from her bed starting at 6 yrs of age for over a year until she got a medication to slow down her heart. She still struggles with a lot of nausea, extreme fatigue, weakness, weight loss etc etc. She was having cycles of this illness and then she became permanently ill the day after an airplane ride in a small plane over the atlantic which was shaking and very loud.....I thought it maybe did something to her brain. Is it possible to heal her with this stuff?! She has been home sick from school for 6 yrs now - she is too exhausted to do much ofanything.
I'm also watching your 3 part series - my daughter used to meltdown and get terrified when I would drop her off at nursery.....it was really bad and I'd have to leave her there and go to work. Maybe this all started there? She was already not sleeping before that point - I was home with her for 13 months and she wasn't sleeping from 12 wks of ag....her ANS is dysfunctional with teh POTS the allodynia etc.
I’m so sorry you are going through this. What Tough tough journey as a mother and for your daughter. I don’t have the answer for you but as a mother my heart went out to you and wanted to encourage you to take care of yourself so you have the strength you need to keep going.❤❤❤
thank you so much. Some weeks I really struggle to keep the hope alive but surely there has GOT to be an answer somewhere. I'll never give up looking for it!@@lavenderkisses9461
Hello, Sophia from Team Lyon here. I'm very sorry to hear what you're going through and thank you for sharing. However, we are not able to consult or diagnose on here. Irene's work and programs are educational in the means that they provide you with education to learn more about the nervous system and practices to help become your own medicine. As Irene and her team are not doctors, psychiatrists or medical professionals, we can't make any guarantees around specific health conditions improving but we can say that many people have had success with Irene's program and have used it to heal numerous things that they were struggling with.
