Tension & Trauma Release Exercises (or TRE®) is a simple yet innovative series of exercises that assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma. Created by Dr. David Berceli, PhD, TRE safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. When this muscular shaking/vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance.
Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (or TRE®) is based on the fundamental idea, backed by research, that stress, tension and trauma is both psychological and physical. TRE®’s reflexive muscle vibrations generally feel pleasant and soothing. After doing TRE®, many people report feelings of peace and well-being. TRE® has helped many thousands of people globally.
TRE® is designed to be a self-help tool that, once learned, can be used independently as needed throughout one’s life, thereby continuously supporting and promoting personal health and wellness.

From the Harvard Gazette: "Studies have shown benefits against an array of conditions both physical and mental, including irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, psoriasis, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. But some of those findings have been called into question because studies had small sample sizes or problematic experimental designs. Still, there are a handful of key areas — including depression, chronic pain, and anxiety — in which well-designed, well-run studies have shown benefits for patients engaging in a mindfulness meditation program, with effects similar to other existing treatments."

Join Spira for this 6-Week introduction to Mindful Yoga for Trauma. Learn to feel calmer and more comfortable in every day life. The online course meets on Mondays from 7-8pm. The In-person course meets at Hard Knocks gym in Everett, MA.
This course will help you develop awareness and connect with your body while healing from trauma. Yoga and mindfulness practices have been proven to be effective modalities on this journey. Spira is a trauma survivor, art and yoga teacher and has been using yoga, mindfulness, art, and other somatic modalities in her own personal healing and is excited to share this practice with you. It's VERY gentle and easily accessible. You can practice on your mat, on a chair, or even standing. You don't have to be flexible or look a certain way. This is not a workout or fitness program. We are simply connecting with our bodies, calming the nervous system, increasing proprioception and interoception, and building resilience and self-acceptance.
Please pass this on to anyone who might benefit. (min. 4 students to run the course)
NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!!!!
Join me for an 6 -week course on creating a mindful art journal. Art making is an excellent mindfulness practice and when we make it personal, all the better. Each week, I'll teach you a new technique to try, paired with a mindful meditation and theme. From there, you'll create a new page in your book! By the end of the course, you will have enough basic skills and ideas to continue creating on your own.
The course will begin on Thursday, September 3 from 7:00-8:30 and continue for 6 weeks. The cost is $150. Registration ends on Sunday, August 30. Be sure to give yourself enough time to get the materials and watch the introductory video before the course starts. I will send out a materials list as well as a couple of introductory videos to help you get started with basic materials so that you'll be ready to jump in on week one. If you miss a class, the course will be recorded so that you can watch it afterwards.
Bring a friend and get $25 off the course fee! Both must register together. The option will be available through the website registration.
Just as there are many mind-body practices that are evidence-based for healing from illness, trauma, or chronic stress, art making can also assist us on this journey. I am not an art therapist. Therefore, I cannot offer a course in art therapy. I can, however, help facilitate art classes that may have therapeutic value and be beneficial to you in some way.
I use art making in my own self-healing journey and now I'd like to share it with you. I've been teaching art for almost 20 years and I absolutely LOVE teaching non-artists how to be creative and feel good about the process. This course is not about skill. This is about learning new skills to help you express what you want and to learn how to honor the process of growth instead of establishing an end goal of a finished product. Life is about the journey, right? So is art.
The class starts on Friday, Sept 4, from 6:30-8:00pm and runs for 8 weeks. The cost is $180. A materials list will be sent to you after you register. We will explore a different way of self-expression and technique every week. The class will be enough to get you started, but you may continue on your own after we end. If you miss a class, the course will be recorded so that you can watch it afterwards.
Bring a friend and get $25 off the course fee! Both must register together. The option will be available through the website registration.
