TRE:  Using the Body to Heal
presented by
Living Ubuntu & San Diego Institute for Bioenergetic Analysis

Despite our attempts to protect ourselves, life’s tragedies find their way into our lives causing pain to us and those we love. Cumulative stressors elicit exaggerated reactions making trauma a state of preoccupation, not simply a passing experience. Feeling overwhelmed by such life experiences has become an increasingly common struggle for many people.

Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) is a breakthrough in trauma recovery and stress management. It is a body centered method of recovery that helps release the deep chronic tension created in a body during a traumatic or stressful experience. It is easily learned, immediately effective and self-empowering because it can be used without the guidance of a therapist. This method has been used successfully in over 10 different countries with families, organizations, and schools in diverse populations and cultures.

David Berceli, founder and CEO of Trauma Recovery Assessment & Prevention Services is the creator of Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE). He has lived in nine countries providing specialized recovery assistance to employees of organizations in trauma inducing environments. For the past 15 years David has worked with various international relief agencies such as UNICEF, Doctors Without Borders and The World Health Organization (WHO) designing and implementing comprehensive individualized trauma recovery, stress management and conflict resolution programs. His work has included programs in Sudan, Uganda, Israel, Palestine, Northern Ireland, Ethiopia, New Zealand, Yemen and Egypt.  David is a Clinical Social Worker (MSW) Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), Certified Bioenergetics Therapist (CBT) & Spiritual Director (MS).

William J. Goldwag, M.D. has been in clinical medical practice for 50 years and is the director of the Center for Preventive Holistic Medicine. He has had experience in several branches of psychotherapy and has completed the training program in Bioenergetic Analysis. Dr. Goldwag has been a pioneer in the field of holistic medicine and has been on the Board of Directors of the American Holistic Medical Association and Southern California Institute of Bioenergetic Analysis. He has written articles published in various magazines, newspapers and books and given lectures and workshops on alternative medicine, applications of the martial arts to health and stress awareness and prevention throughout Southern California.
