Introduction to TRE and Somatic Practices
No Experience Needed
Release Tension, Reconnect with your Body, and Support your Nervous System
in a Safe and Supportive Online Session for Women.
THESE SESSIONS ARE FOR YOU IF...
You’re curious about what TRE (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) and
Somatic Practices are, and how they can genuinely support your body, your health, and your overall well-being.
In these introductory sessions, you’ll learn how to activate the TRE Tremor and simple somatic practices that give you practical tools to move through life with more ease and regulation.
It’s all about understanding and reconnecting with your body’s own innate wisdom so that you can feel more balanced, more in tune, and more at home in yourself every day.
Release Stress
& Tension
Gently discharge stored stress, tension and trauma from your body and feel lighter, calmer and more grounded.
Reconnect with
your body
Learn to listen to your body and gently rebuild the trust that stress or life may have shaken, no pressure, just kind, steady support
Improve your Health, Mood & Relationships
A more regulated nervous system can lift your mood, support immunity, and help you feel more connected.
The Body keeps the Score
Even when we’ve moved on mentally, our bodies can still hold the weight of stress, tension, or past experiences.
Somatic practices offer a way to gently release that.
What is TRE?
TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) is a simple, body-based practice that helps release stress, tension, and trauma held in the body, particularly in the deep muscles of the core.
It works by activating the body’s natural tremor response, an involuntary shaking mechanism found in all mammals, designed to help discharge stress from the nervous system.
Created by Dr. David Berceli, TRE helps:
Calm the fight/flight/freeze response
Restore the nervous system to a more balanced state
Relieve physical tension, emotional overwhelm, and stored trauma without needing to talk it through
It’s not about reliving the past, it’s about giving your body a safe space to let go of what it’s been holding onto.
What are Somatic Practices?
The word “somatic” comes from the Greek word soma, meaning “the living body.”
Somatic practices are about listening to and working with the body, not just the mind as a way to heal, regulate, and reconnect with ourselves.
Rather than analysing, we start to feel.
Instead of pushing through, we learn to pause, sense, and respond.
Somatic work helps us:
Notice where stress, tension, or emotion lives in the body
Build body awareness and inner safety
Gently shift patterns like dissociation, overwhelm, or shutdown
Restore connection between body, mind, and heart
These practices are deeply supportive for anyone who feels stuck, numb, reactive, or like they’re “living in their head.”
What to expect in a Session
These sessions are held live on Zoom in a small, intimate group of no more than 8 women. You’ll be asked to have your camera on, not to perform, but to help create a sense of connection and shared presence as we move through the session together.
When we join the session, we’ll take a few moments to land, breathe, and settle in before we begin. Please aim to arrive on time, so we can settle in together and create a steady, supportive space.
Each 75-minute online session includes:
A short introduction to TRE and somatic practices
Grounding and body awareness to help you feel present and supported
A guided TRE process (standing and lying down) to invite the body’s natural tremor response
Time to rest, reflect, and integrate
You do not need any prior experience.
You’ll be encouraged to follow your own pace, stay connected to your body, and choose what feels right for you in each moment.
These sessions are here to meet you exactly where you are, and there is no 'Good or Bad', 'Right or Wrong' way.
A little bit about Me...
Hi, I’m Claire. I’m a trauma-informed body therapist, somatic practitioner, certified TRE® provider, and also a relationship and intimacy coach.
What all of that really means is…I help people come back into connection with themselves, gently, naturally, and in a way that feels safe.
This kind of work found me at a time in my life when I was holding too much. Stress, grief, survival-mode living, it was all there. And what helped wasn’t talking more or trying harder. It was learning how to slow down. To listen. To trust my body again.
Now I get to share that with others and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.
In these sessions, there’s no pressure to explain or get it right. You’re not expected to push through anything. It’s simply an invitation to slow down and tune into what’s really going on inside.
This is a space where your body gets to feel safe again.
Where you can breathe a little deeper.
Where you can begin to let go without needing to have all the answers.
And doing that in the company of other women? That’s where something really powerful happens. Even when we’re just quietly sharing space, there’s this reminder: you’re not doing this alone. don’t need to be “ready”
You just need to know that something in you is ready for something softer, something that honours your pace, your process, and YOU!

TESTIMONIALS
"I’ve done a lot of things to manage stress, but this was different. Claire has such a calming presence I felt safe straight away. By the end of the session, my whole body felt softer, like I could finally exhale. It’s hard to explain… something just shifted.”
"Since practising TRE I have noticed huge changes in my mental and emotional health which has in turn helped to reduce my physical symptoms of stress and anxiety. My life is still immensely stressful but TRE gives me an inner calmness I have never had before. For something that takes only a few minutes to do the benefits are long lasting."
If group sessions aren't for you...
If you’d feel more comfortable exploring this work on an individual basis, I also offer one-to-one introductory sessions online.
These are gentle, supportive sessions tailored just for you, ideal if you’re feeling unsure, new to somatic work, or simply prefer a quieter environment to begin. We’ll take our time, and there’s no rush or pressure to get it “right.”
You’ll be guided through the same foundational practices we use in the group sessions, with plenty of space for questions, reflection, and support at your own pace.
If this feels like a better fit, you’re welcome to book a free call to chat.
We’ll talk about what you’re looking for and whether 1:1 support is right for you.

Is TRE® and somatic practices a form of therapy?
TRE® and Somatic Practices are not talk therapy or a replacement for psychotherapy, counselling, or medical treatment. It’s a body-based method to help regulate the nervous system and release tension and trauma. I am not a trauma therapist, but I am trauma-informed and guide you with safety, choice, and care.
Are there any situations where TRE® might not be suitable, especially in a group setting?
TRE® and somatic practices are natural and generally safe practices, but there are times when extra care is needed. To make sure the practice is right for you, please let me know if you:
Are currently pregnant
Have had recent surgery or are still in physical recovery
Live with uncontrolled epilepsy
Have a serious heart condition
Are experiencing a severe or unstable mental health condition
This does not mean TRE® and somatic practices isn't for you, it simply helps us decide whether a group session is appropriate right now, or if a 1-1 session would offer more support and safety while you begin.
What if I don't feel the tremors from TRE® right away, does that mean its not working?
Not at all. Everyone's body responds differently. Some people tremor in their first session, others take longer as the body learns it's safe to let go. Even without visible shaking, your body is learning to down regulate stress and build trust. These sessions are not about performance, its about listening, softening and allowing.
How many sessions will I need to attend?
The Introductory sessions are designed to teach you the foundations of TRE® and somatic practices so you can safely practice on your own. I want to ensure you know how to activate and regulate your natural tremor response, ground and calm your nervous system and begin using what you are learning in these sessions as a self led practice at home. From the new year I will be offering small group programmes for those who want to continue deepening their practice, and explore more somatic tools and emotional integration.
Do I need to talk about my stress or past trauma during the sessions?
No. You never have to share more than you are comfortable with TRE® and somatic practices are body based practices, you can release physical and emotional stress without needing to retell or relive painful experiences.
Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
