Dr. David Berceli is a former monk who spent 15 years as trauma specialist in war zones and areas of natural disaster before leaving his order to establish Trauma Releasing Exercises within the professional and therapeutic community . Dr. Berceli developed these simple physical exercises to help individuals and groups recover from periods of horrendous stress and trauma. The exercises are revolutionary in their calming effectiveness, and ability to work across in all cultures , nationalities ,and religions. The exercises can assist in counseling or be used a self- help tool. Don't be fooled by the title of this DVD . You do not need to have experienced trauma to benefit from the technique. Anyone who is experiencing mental stress, excessive worry and even the feeling of financial trauma can use these simple exercises to enhance well being. If you are stressed and no matter how many times you talk the negative feelings keep coming back, these exercises are for you. In addition to explaining how stress, anxiety, and trauma affect our mental well-being and physical health, The Revolutionary Trauma Release DVD explains the body's amazing ability to permanently release tension by using this technique. By reestablishing our equilibrium, stabilizing our lives, and returning us to emotional health, the exercises allow us to enjoy a vibrant state of being. The exercises are easy .The DVD contains a step by step demonstration. The DVD concludes with interviews of individuals and therapists who are using the exercises with success and experiencing significantly greater well-being. Dr Berceli was recently asked by officials of the Chinese Government to bring his exercises to China to aid in trauma recovery in the recently devastated earthquake zones.

everyone should learn about TRE
Don't let the title limit you. We could all use a method of release the tension we store in our bodies. Sometimes this comes from major trauma (and in fact, David Bercelli would not have come up with this program without experiencing some pretty major trauma environments), but sometimes it comes from little things...someone cutting you off in traffic, daily stress with your job, or kids, or whatever...all those little things add up and end up stored in a similar way to the 'bigger' stuff.This program gives you a specific, usable tool to release those stored tension patterns from your body. In fact, I know that more and more therapists are incorporating TRE into their practice modalities, and if you have a significant trauma history, you're probably better off doing it under guidance from a therapist or certified TRE practitioner. However, the majority of us can do this quite effectively by ourselves and this video gives you the tools to get started.A few notes: a) the mind body connection is very real...TRE deals directly with your body, but the release of stored tension patterns in your body will have a very real effect on your mind; b) a lot of trauma related treatments require you to relive or at least think about your trauma events...this does not...you don't have to go back down those roads...your body will do what it needs to do regardless of what you're thinking about; c) this works as well (actually, a little easier) for out of shape folks as those in better physical condition...Basically, what I'm saying is try it...and if you want more info on TRE (like where to find an actual certified therapist or trainer), search Bercelli on the web

it was very short and again the quality very poor. I would not buy it
The price of this video far out weighs the quality of the video. The information is invaluable. I felt the effects of the exercise and was able to relax and focus on my assignments. However, it was very short and again the quality very poor. I would not buy it, perhaps go to Youtube and find examples of TRE there. Save your money.

Good content poor format
As far as the content goes I think it is very good. The explanations are good and the exercises are simple and effective. The format is not good at all, however. The quality of the video leaves much to be desired, looking like the video on an old TV with rabbit ears which can't pull in a sharp picture. But I can accept that.What I didn't like was there were no chapters made available for easy accessing of material. You can't go back and review things you want to focus on. Instead, you have to start from the very beginning and wait until the relevant points come up - very inconvenient. I would advise people to watch it first without trying to do the exercises and use the pause button frequently, and take notes on each exercise before going on to the next one. Or, buy the book too and have that on hand in case you want to review something carefully.If this would have a menu and chapters I would give this 5 stars, poor picture quality notwithstanding.

But TRE is awesome and works
The video quality of this dvd is very blurry, and in one clip the sound track does not match the video, which is very distracting. But TRE is awesome and works! I recommend buying the book and receiving your first time orientation from a certified instructor.

Should be on YouTube
The exercises themselves are helpful / interesting. But as others state, the video quality is not good, quite old, and honestly, not worth the money. Berceli, if he were really interested in helping people release trauma, would be less controlling of the techniques and less interested in monetizing them. If they really are a public benefit, they should be free. There are similar techniques that can be commonly found online, which makes me think Berceli is in it for the money. Boo.

Very Important: Use with caution
Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE): A revolutionary new method for stress/trauma recovery This is a very important video. It is excellent work. However, I caution everyone. to not approach this work unless you definitely are conscious of your trauma history. If you Think something happened and aren't Sure, do not use this video. It will release things that could fracture your psyche unless you have many therapeutic & spiritual tools that have a proven track record of working, in your toolbox for self healing. This is not recreational stuff. This work stimulates extremely deep somatic and emotional release. As a counselor and healer in the field of self- recovery for over 30 years,I stress the potency,value and possible danger of doing this work alone . It would best be done in a support group with a trained and competent facilitator. Enjoy your journey to wellness. For further discussion, I can be contacted at: [email protected] Subject label: TRE. Thank you.

not the most updated
Probably not the most updated dvd to be released and this would've been good to know. Although the exercises are virtually the same, there have been adjustments and eliminations since this dvd was published. The exercises on the more recent dvd have been streamlined and are more accessible to all physical levels.
