In this episode, Alex sits down with Simba Stenqvist, a TRE provider and trainer originally from Sweden, now based in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Simba runs a retreat and healing center called Living with the Spirit, which he co-founded with his wife. With a background in martial arts and a passion for embodiment and holistic healing practices, Simba shares his journey into TRE (Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises) and how he integrates it with other modalities like polyvagal theory to create a comprehensive approach to healing.

Throughout the conversation, Simba delves into the principles behind his retreat center's approach, emphasizing the importance of creating a safe environment for deep healing. He explains how his work is not just about physical exercises but also about addressing the mental and emotional aspects of healing. Simba shares insights into his methodology, which includes traditional Chinese medicine, breathwork, and sound healing, all aimed at helping individuals better understand and regulate their nervous systems. He discusses the transformative power of neurogenic tremoring and how it aligns with the principles of polyvagal theory.
