Is TRE necessary if one opts to do block therapy instead?

Seeking clarity. Since emotions are bound in the fascia, does it make more sense to focus on the fascia to allow the body to unwind, via block therapy, so that whatever emotions are trapped can release or is TRE still needed because of the energetic charge of said emotions that are stored in the nervous system?

At this moment, I feel tangible tension in my body. No matter what I’ve done, my body rarely relaxes. Haven’t done any TRE in months. Trying to understand this for a biological/formulaic perspective. It’s how my mind works so I can grasp the concept.

Edit; I already know that TRE will cause fascial release in time. Just curious about this work being done the opposite way. (Ie. Meaning doing block therapy first, or only)

Is this biofilm?

Have been locked in sympathetic fight or flight for a while now. Was doing a antifungal protocol and eating raw vegan to calm the inflammation. Pooped this today.

Before it came out, I began having anxiety and restlessness, then I pooped.

Mestinon for nervous system regulation? L

Just saw my doc. Got test results back and have a host of issues wrong with me. Doc suggested I take this drug called Mestinon to calm my nervous system so that I can detox. They’re suggesting starting at 5 or 10mg. Can’t recall.

Has anyone here taken it? If so, how has it been? I haven’t had time to research it yet.

Do probiotics bind to toxins and create digestive discomfort and mold related symptoms as you go to the restroom?

Going to see a mold literate CIRS specialist this week to take mycotoxin test. To prepare for when I am prescribed binders later down the line, I have begun working on my gut health over the last five days as I realized that I have pretty bad dysbiosis. I have been drinking ACV, lemon, lime and raw honey in warm water then taking a 100B cfu probiotic pill and make a smoothie with 32oz Lifeway Milk Kefir that has 50B cfu each day. They each have been helping. I feel brain fog has lifted slightly, tad better mood, etc. Have been visiting the restroom more. Alongside this, have been eating more prebiotics to feed the good gut bacteria.

Each of the five days I have waken up with stomach aches and have to visit the bathroom. This morning was different. Went four times in first two hours upon waking and each toilet visit I excreted A LOT. While dealing with this, I was getting very low grade fight or flight. Like a 2 out of 10. It feels like I was passing some toxins but I am not sure. Was uncomfortable to deal with.

My problem is that it felt so bad that I had to take today off as my stomach is still bothering me. Is there anyway to stop the discomfort that comes with releasing mycotoxins? If this is a preview of taking prescription binders (CSM or Welchol) idk how I am going to make it?

Would a more healthy and efficient liver allow for these toxins to pass without feeling the discomfort they give?

How did you know that you have histamine intolerance?

Lived in mold for several years and just recently came to the conclusion of how much its been affecting me over the years. Have had gut issues for as long as I can remember. Mostly gas related. Always burping excessively (ex. 20 burps over ten minute span) after eating.

Someone mentioned that, due to mold exposure, I may have histamine intolerance but the only symptom that lines up for me from what I read was the bloating and gas. In my opinion, my gut issues stem from dysbiosis as mycotoxins from mold kills good bacteria and proliferates bad bacteria in the gut.

To combat this, lately I have been taking 100B CFU probiotics and drinking store-bought milk kefir daily as well as eating more raw foods (fruits, uncooked veggies) and am feeling a tad bit better.

I go see a specialist this week but need to know if this is something I may have so I know how to communicate it properly so that I can receive the proper treatment.

Do you notice your prayers getting answered faster the longer you retain? (Please give examples/testimonies)

Not speaking to manifestation as it is similar but something different. I mean you are literally praying to something divine and it helps you more and more, at quicker rates, the more you retain. I want to hear personal stories because I am in a rut and struggling to retain. Its difficult to retain when my gut is messed up.

Longest streak I had was about 16 months and during that time I noticed this phenomenon. In times of trouble I'd literally pray to God seeking help, advice, deliverance, blessing and whatever I requested would show up swiftly like same day, same hour, and a few times less than five minutes. Sometimes I'd pray, then read the Bible later and the answer would show up right then to the point where the words would jump off the page, and I don't mean that metaphorically.

From experience, what I've gathered is that when you pray, whatever you request is immediately released to you but the rapidity in which you receive it depends on your power level, purity, inner cleanness (in the form of a unclogged pipe) to allow it to come through to you. Even if you are constantly releasing the prayer is still coming but the constant releasing slows down its transmission because you're lower in consciousness and receptivity to it being shown to you.

Had a bout of living in mold for nearly two years. Longest streak was seven months then and despite retaining and being clean internally, prayers were answered but they came slower than before when was in a better environment.

Give me some stories.

Insatiable hunger.

Pretty sure my gut is mold colonized. Years of living in mold has completely wrecked my gut. Have tried for years to correct it and only recently discovered that I consistently failed eventually because I was still living mold.

I have noticed a pattern where no matter how healthy I eat nor how much I gorge on completely healthy, whole foods that I will still be hungry and I am certain I’m getting enough calories and nutrients. The oddest part is that the hunger is only ever satisfied if I eat something unhealthy. Particularly anything with yeast, artificial sugar or heavily processed.

I could eat a 3LB salad with 14 different ingredients, a 64oz smoothie and a bunch of random fruit and like 30 minutes later I’ll feel hungry again but the only thing I’ll crave or be thinking about is a honey bun or donuts.

Think there’s a fungal colony that’s been living, unchecked, in my gut from years of mold exposure alongside depleted beneficial bacteria who are fighting to survive and manipulating me to feed them junk food. Planning to build up my gut with homemade milk kefir. It was the only thing that kept me feeling somewhat decent when I was at my worst living in mold.

Am I the only one?

for those who have reached that point, what does having a continuous flow of positive energy flowing through their nervous system at all times feel like?

have had many activations lately. when these "episodes" have happened, i legitmately feel energy coursing through my entire body to the point that im vibrating internally and its too much for me. feels like im experiencing a flow of energy that my nervous system isnt compatible with. kind of like an electrical cord with too much wattage going through it causing it to explode.

this made me think, what does it feel like when energy is coming through and on 24/7 but youre able to handle it and allow it to keep running? things have led me to believe that this was how things were always supposed to be.

Beyond overwhelmed. My nervous system is treating every tiny thing like a threat.

I’m overwhelmed by life. I don’t know what to do right now.

After years of being mold exposed I finally got out three months ago. Have been living in a hotel but I am struggling to maintain it. I do gig work. It’s basically 2026 version of minimum wage relative to how much everything costs. $16/hr. Because of this I have been having to work 60-70 hours every single week just to be sure I have somewhere to sleep but I’m tired. I know that the stress is making it difficult for my nervous system to regulate but idk what to do.

The constant hustle and bustle, no time for myself, poor sleep because when it’s actually time to sleep my body is still on high alert, no where to make a proper meal, living off of low quality food because it’s all I can afford and have time to eat since the more time I spend not working the farther I fall behind. I feel so desperate I am genuinely considering just giving it up and sleeping in my car so that I’ll have less bills and more time to rest. The only place I know I can park the car is at parents house but it’s same house where mold exposure occurred and I’m afraid even if I don’t go near the house, my body will go into fight or flight perceiving it as a threat because I can visibly see it. That has happened before.

All this plus feeling like a burden to my parents financially who are already financially strained. I say all of this here hoping that someone had an exact circumstance like mine and can give me an idea of what to because I can’t think straight right now.

I had some time sensitive business today that I had to handle and my body started panicking. I always try to cover it up because I hate explaining and sometimes I’m not even sure how to explain what’s going on to someone else. When I began walking in the building, I began shaking and couldn’t even hide it. My chest and stomach got tight. Same happened recently where just sitting in traffic was sending me into a panic. Using the internet does it sometimes. How do I make this stuff stop?

My brain can’t come up with any solution that isn’t based around money as if I had money I literally could AFFORD to rest and slow down. Not able to see the doctor until two weeks. Help.

Purging energy from negative emotions while sleeping?

No exaggeration I woke up between 15-20 times last night. Don't feel tired though really. Kind of excited as I feel like this is a new development.

I kept waking up having to reorient myself. When I woke up I was probably only awake between 60-180 seconds each time if I had to guess. The odd part was that upon waking each time my body was shaking, in some form. I attached a video of examples. My toes would be wiggling, my quads would jump up and down, my forearms would do the same or my entire waist would rock back and forth. These would happen in isolation or in combination but never all at once, that I can remember. Was half sleep for all of them.

Is this a development for purging this emotional energy from my nervous system?

I should preface this by saying that I have not done TRE since maybe February or March of this year. I have only done it a handful of times and even then I didn't see any results. Even before I learned of TRE, my body had been screaming for stillness. Even when I'd pray and ask God for things, He'd ignore whatever I requested and only respond with "be still". I mostly understand why now. This happened many times over last 3-4 years. I tried to be still but could never stick with it and also wasn't fulling grasping the meaning but eventually came to learn it was pointing towards nervous system work.

Fast forward, God, and my body, got louder outright demanding stillness. After praying for guidance I felt lead to sensory deprivation/float tank therapy. Got a membership and have been floating daily. This is my 7th day out of 8 total.

God's guidance and my intuition proved right as within the first two days of me floating I had two massive emotional releases on back to back days. I detailed the experiences here in this post. I have not had any massive emotional release since then but I have noticed that I have more body shaking during the day now. As if my body is getting the memo that its safe now. The more odd part is that it seems that just the stillness/silence alone from the tank ONLY pulls up whatever is ready to be processed and it is taking me through the FULL cycle of whatever is ready to leave with NO HANGOVER EFFECT. Reminder that I am not doing TRE at all right now.

This post from a while ago spoke on how if you sit with the energy, it will dissipate faster and you will have no hangovers. I feel like this what is happening to me but in reverse. I am being still first, my body is getting the cue that I'm safe, as well as slowly and slightly increasing my nervous system capacity since in the tank it takes away your sight, hearing and touch which allows the body to divert the energy it would use to see, hear and feel towards whatever the nervous system needs to work on, then the emotions come up later whenever they are ready.

Also want to mention that I had severe mold exposure recently and that event had my entire body clenched from being locked in fight or flight. Since floating my body has dropped about 15-20% of its muscle tension from the hundreds of pounds of epsom salt in the tank that allows you to float. I believe the drop in muscle tension is helping those emotions be ready to come up as well.

Now, my body is beginning to do this often, but in much smaller increments. Yesterday, my pelvis was beginning to tremor while I was driving but had to stop it because had to get to work. In all, is what I posted in the video another sign of tremoring? It feels like it. I don't feel the same euphoria, calm and inner peace I felt after having the massive releases but I don't feel bad either. I'm neutral. Interested in your thoughts.

What did you do to heal your dysregulated nervous system (excluding mold protocols)?

Have been getting so many signs and downloads to work on nervous system regulation so that I can finally undergo mold protocols. Because my nervous system is so out of whack, much of the things I've done - mold protocol wise, haven't worked. Its almost like my body has been rejecting healing because it still doesn't feel safe.

After constantly seeing these signs, and finally realizing what they were, I prayed on it and was led to sensory deprivation/float tanks. I've been going daily and it has worked well. When I began it one week ago, my body was fully clenched from being locked in fight or flight and just going there I'd say I've lost about 15-20% of that muscle tension just from getting in the tank and sitting in silence in pitch darkness.

Now, I have been seeing all these signs to do brain retraining but I still need to do research on it. Not able to see a mold doctor until next month. What else can I do to help regulate my nervous system so that I can heal?

Purging the emotional energies of family members who came and lived before you.

Had two massive emotional releases on back to back days recently. For clarity, I am not practicing TRE right now and haven’t attempted it once in over several months. Despite that these releases showed up.

First day was anger/rage. Second day was sadness. I know some of it was my own expression of these emotions but the majority, on each day, felt foreign to me, like they weren’t my own feelings.

Specifically on the second day while crying and purging all this sadness I said probably over 30 times over the course of this purging, which lasted well over and hour, “we are sorry”. I kept saying that. I didn’t see very vivid images during this but I saw something but couldn’t make out what it was or what it was directly tied to. I was conscious of what was going on but the entire time I felt like I was a mouthpiece for a bunch of other people.

Has anyone directly experienced something similar?

Can someone link a video of a person releasing massive anger/rage during TRE session?

Couldn’t find one on my own.

Not doing TRE currently. Haven’t attempted it in months but just had a massive release a few hours ago and I feel good. Really good. Slightly euphoric. A sliver of inner peace.

Few of my family members saw my outbursts. I explained what was happening, while it was happening. One family member understood. The others think I’m crazy lol.

TRE to release trauma. Somatic awareness to process trauma. Sensory deprivation & fasting from all artificial dopamine to speed up integration. Is this a good plan?

About to get back to trying TRE again very soon. I've done it sparingly in the past. From all that I've read from others experiences, the plan I am inquiring about makes the most sense logically and intuitively.

I know that the emotions need to be brought to the surface which TRE will do but from reading others experiences, those negative emotions and their energetic charge can linger making it difficult to continue day to day life which I want to avoid hence the somatic awareness. Found this post where another practitioner realized that if that give attention to the emotions that arise it would dissipate faster.

Sensory deprivation/float tanks facilitate this work. Here is a list of benefits for floating daily. Number 1, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 15 directly influence emotional work. It removes sight, sound and touch for however long you are in the tank allowing the nervous system to relax, go offline and divert the energy that would typically be spent scanning for danger towards handling these emotions that arise and other bodily functions that were put on the back burner to keep you safe and alive. On top of this, the hundreds of pounds of epsom salt allow you to float and experience virtually no gravity which allows your body to decompress and this process literally forces your body to release tension which, in my eyes, on a somatic level signals to your body that you are now safe which would help your nervous system recalibrate to this newfound state of safety. Something I have been struggling with recently while being locked into fight or flight is that I can tangibly feel my body tensing up for danger at all times even though there is none around. My chest is literally tight although it isn't affecting my breathing.

As far as fasting from artificial dopamine, I have been receiving these intuitive impressions to literally unplug and turn everything off for years but have struggled to do so because tech is so addictive. I was already activated from emotional trauma, then mold exposure. I am out of mold now but I continue to reactivate myself because of doom scrolling. Going back to the idea of the finite amount of energy the nervous system has to process things, it makes sense to me that if I am living a life on the daily where my nervous system isn't being negatively stimulated, it'll allow me to get through this journey easier, more efficiently and sooner. What this would look like for me is no internet use, no music, no unnecessary screen time, no junk food, no drugs, sex/p*rn, etc. Will probably add some fasting in there as well. That has done good for my nervous system and resensitizing my entire bodily system in the past.

So, in all, the plan is TRE every 2-3 days for a few minutes and float daily for 90-120 minutes. Floating daily will train my body to learn to feel safe again because of the release of tension and sensory deprivation and I'll gain the practice of somatic awareness each float day which I expect to travel with me when I am in the real world to be more in tune with my body and its signals.

Is this a good plan? Is there anything that needs to be added?

u/goldenyellow333 — 2 months ago

Am coming to the realization that I might as well not even try healing myself until you regulate your nervous system. Your body will reject whatever you try until that’s done.

Have been out of exposure for three months. All of my belongings clean. My body will not stay relaxed. Have tried a few things to help me health wise and my body keeps operating improperly.

Before I got out of mold I saw a lot of posts from past years stating to work on nervous system before healing but I thought it was dumb advice. They were right. About to buy a sensory deprivation membership at local float spa to train my body to relax.

A odd portion of this is that I have continuously experience unfortunate circumstances since leaving mold. Have asked in here, and other places, about the connection between the state of your nervous system and experiencing good or bad luck. I know that ive been dysregulated since I left and negative things keep occurring that seem to be preventing my healing. In essence seems my nervous system is repelling it.

Have you taught TRE to your children? Do you plan to?

Something I have been pondering for myself. Don't have children yet but feel as if I have been divinely introduced to, and instructed to do, TRE so that I not only eliminate any behaviors that would create childhood traumas for my children but even more importantly that I purge it from the body so that it isn't passed down genetically via DNA to anyone in my bloodline who will come after me.

Traumas, of some sort, will happen because that's life. I want to have kids and have wondered how to go about this in the future. Not only so they are well emotionally but so they don't squander the work, sacrifice and suffering I'm going through now. Feels like I'm healing the emotional wounds of family members who came before me I haven't even met. Some emotions I feel don't even feel like my own.
