A bunch of us in the Discord have realised that Rhiannon McGavin has liked our (bad) Notes on Shapeshifting/2nd book reviews on Goodreads. Then we saw this on her IG stories…it seems like she has clocked on you guys
Hi everyone, I’ve been aware of TRE for some time but a few days ago I came across it again and tried it on a whim! Despite having a self-inquiry background (vipassana, various forms of meditation, psychedelics, IFS) I was skeptical that I would tremor but boy was I wrong, it went on for half an hour and my mind was blank for most of it which felt so good. Then I got kind of freaked out and very mildly nauseous so I stopped, although the tremors would continue on their own in subtle ways. I definitely overdid it as the next 1-2 days I was exhausted, headachy and sensitive. I’ve been on and off crying which has felt amazing, purging ambient grief that sometimes doesn’t even feel like mine. I’ve been tired so letting myself rest. I felt good enough to do another small session today (just 15 min) and it was normal, nothing to report. I’m an anxious person and occasionally get panic attacks, and although I’m pretty comfortable feeling/releasing emotions and crying intuitively I know that I needed something for my nervous system. Just reporting in to say that I’m excited for the journey ahead and trying my best to not overdo it at this beginning stage!
