Body experiences/tremors
Tight, quick tremors in pelvis and legs. Smal crazy 8 repeating movement in hips. Tremored on the floor.   The tremors are an enjoyable sensation.
Emotional experienceNeutral/ open
Ego defense and thought
A little discouraged that I find the knees open (primary one) uncomfortable to do - due to flexibility/strength or limited range of movement.

Sense of aliveness 2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10     7 - tired but more awake too

Emotional state 2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10      5
Notes about today’s session
Feels  like a good tremor session. Thoughts about my parents and self care and guilt are on my mind, so I'm feeling a bit sad this morning. Even these thoughts feel like they're tightening my belly where I just spent 15 minutes loosening up.  I can see how important this work will/would be for caregivers. Gives you a time out mentally and physically and emotionally.
