Psychedelics, Psoas, & Somatics

The psoas muscle is a deep-seated muscle that connects the lower spine to the thighbone. Some mystics refer to the Psoas (pronounced SO-as) the soul muscle. It plays a crucial role in maintaining proper body posture, supporting the lower back, and aiding in hip movement. However, due to various physical and emotional stressors, the psoas can become tense and tight, leading to discomfort, restricted movement, & PTSD. This is where trauma release exercises come into play.

Trauma release exercises, or TRE®, are a series of simple movements that help release built-up stress and tension from the body. By activating the body's natural shaking mechanism, TRE® allows the psoas muscle to relax and release deep emotional and physical trauma, & tension patterns stored within.

When combined with microdosing, which refers to the practice of taking small, sub-perceptual doses of psychedelic substances like LSD, MDMA or psilocybin mushrooms, the benefits of releasing trauma from the psoas muscle are maximized. Practice and guidance supports the whole human organism into lasting states of calm and peace.

Microdosing can enhance the effects of trauma release exercises by unlocking suppressed emotions and memories, allowing individuals to address and release trauma more effectively. Psychedelic assistance provides (to people who are correctly suited for this modality) a unique perspective on past events, offering new insight and understanding, promoting personal growth and healing. Microdosing has been used for centuries in various cultures as a tool for spiritual and psychological healing, & a closer connection with nature and cosmos.

Moreover, microdosing may help increase body awareness, making it easier to connect with the psoas muscle during trauma release exercises. This deep connection facilitates a more profound release of tension, promoting a sense of liberation, relief, and peace.

Incorporating trauma release exercises and microdosing benefits can be a powerful combination for individuals seeking physical and emotional healing. However, it is essential to approach microdosing responsibly and under the guidance of experienced professionals to ensure safety and maximize the potential benefits as well as working with a Certified TRE® Provider for those who are new to somatic therapies, or have experienced moderate to severe trauma symptoms.
