Hi,

I am looking to incorporate The Basic Exercise by Stanley Rosenberg for Integration.

What is your experience with it?

Looking forward to hear your story 😊

I've tried it a few times and noticed nothing. Interested to hear other people's experiences. Does it have to be done regularly to see results?

I sometimes use it during TRE, after the standing exercises, when i lie down on the floor, just before going into the tremoring. 30 sec with eyes to each side. It's also a good eye exercise. In Reichian and Lowen based therapies, ocular eye tensions are connected to tension at the base of the skull, so I use the basic exercise as an extra "stretch" before tremoring.

I’ve tried it a couple of times. I usually get to two minutes and don’t yawn, unless maybe I’m actually tired. Does that mean my vagus nerve doesn’t need resetting?

Worked very well for me when I was going through a lot of anxiety years ago.
