Healing dance of the San tribe. 🌙
I have been reading today about TRE & therapeutic tremors in relation to old traditions in tribes & shamanism.
Trembling/shaking has been part of one of the oldest cultures and their spiritual practices. It was believed shaking can help the ‘evil spirit’ leave the body & heal from illness. The San tribe example shows us the healing powers of simple gathering, dance & shaking together. This practice would be done several times a week - in fact this is what we recommend with TRE, practicing weekly to ‘shake it off’.
Although therapeutic neurogenic tremors aren’t consciously done, shaking has a long history in the world & suggests great and positive contribution to our well-being. 💫🤍V.
