Default I spoke to

someone regarding Somatic Experiencing. The quick explanation: A rabbit, if frightened by a predator, will jump around after it escapes to shake out its tension. Humans do not, and especially in the modern world, are more likely to "hold it in" physically.

I didn't follow through, but I thought it might be helpful for my PN TMJ combo. Folks with whatever-it-was-I-had tend to hold a lot of tension in the muscles, and this tension need not necessarily be anxiety. Simple concentration on a computer will do it, too. I found that I had become very unaware of what my muscles were doing, to the point some of my neck muscles were electrophysically exhausted because I held them tight all the time.

Anyway, I thought it was a promising approach.
