Prostate play & involuntary shaking= trauma release?

I’ve been having involuntary abdominal contractions related to my sexual energy experimentation, edging and prostate play. I’ve noticed on these forums that the involuntary contractions are not unusual.

Today I had my first Somatic Experiencing trauma release therapy session (method created by Peter Levine “Waking the Tiger”) it’s talk therapy, focused on releasing trauma stored in the body. During the session I had some of the involuntary contractions in my abdomen and calf muscles. The therapist said it was a fight or flight response.

So I have a hypothesis that the involuntary contractions that some guys experience related to prostate play, could be ambient trauma release from the body. Shaking and trembling are how trauma release often happens amongst animals and humans. Since the rectum/1st chakra is such a storehouse of energy, memories and tension, I wonder if awakening it through prostate play could trigger the trauma release process and shaking.

Has anyone ever considered this before? Or is anyone who’s familiar with Peter Levine’s work ever seen an overlap with their prostate play? Seems like this is a rich and perhaps uncharted area for exploration and discovery.

  1. If you go that route of thinking why not learn more energy work instead of using mechanical stimulation? IE. learn to cleanse your chakras

  2. I am familiar with Levine’s work and somatic therapies. I have also considered this hypothesis after having “shaking and trembling” experiences in different contexts such as prostate play, doing yoga, meditating, and therapy. One could argue they are merely muscle contractions, but I’ve often experienced an emotional release or shift in my consciousness that suggests there is more going on. I experienced a great deal of trauma early in my life and I’ve noticed a settling of my nervous system in general since getting into these practices. I would love to see more research on this subject…
