Sacred Somatic Shaking FAQs
-
Tremor is a body-based practice that activates natural, neurogenic tremors to release stored tension, stress, and trauma from the nervous system, to support emotional and physical well-being.
We begin with guided movement to awaken and gently fatigue the core and leg muscles, prepping the body for the spontaneous tremor response. From there, we activate the inner thigh muscles (adductors) in a bound angle position, inviting the tremors to emerge naturally and allowing the vibrations to travel through the muscles and fascia, unlocking stored tension and energy. As the body begins to shake and release, we weave in breath and sound to further awaken the deep layers of muscle and fascia and a give voice to your experience.

No prior experience is necessary! This workshop is open to beginners and those familiar with somatic or embodiment practices. The session will be guided in supported space.

We’ll email you a few days before the workshop with this list as well, but if you’re curious now, here’s what you’ll need:
A yoga mat or something comfortable to lie on
A blanket or cushion for extra support
Water to stay hydrated
Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing
An eye mask if desired
A journal and pen if desired
-
No, the tremors are involuntary and arise naturally from the body's innate mechanisms. However, you are always in control. You can pause or slow down at any time, and I’ll be sure to show you ways to do that at the workshop before we begin the tremoring.
-
Yes! Since tremor work helps release stored tension, emotions may surface. This is a natural part of the process, and you will be supported in expressing and integrating any feelings that arise. During the tremoring, you are encouraged to sound and emote as much or as little as desired.
-
While tremor work is generally safe, it may not be suitable for everyone. Please consult with your healthcare provider before participating if you:
Are pregnant (especially in the first trimester)
Have severe or unmanaged PTSD, dissociation, or a history of psychosis
Have an acute injury, recent surgery, or medical conditions affecting movement
Experience epilepsy or neurological disorders where involuntary tremors may be a concern
Have high-risk cardiovascular conditions
Liberate your emotions, fascia, and energy.
