A thorough study of the Feldenkrais Method, a leading form of exercise
therapy designed to improve your mental and physical well-being
through mindful movement An educational system of neuromuscular
re-education known for its gentle approach, the Feldenkrais Method has
been shown to dramatically improve individual functioning by
increasing self-awareness and facilitating new patterns of thinking,
moving, and feeling. Intended for those who need to improve their
movement repertoire for professional reasons—dancers, musicians,
martial artists, gymnasts, and athletes—a well as those wishing to
reduce pain or limitations in movement, Feldenkrais is based on the
idea that learning to move better can improve anyone’s overall
health on many levels. Using Moshe Feldenkrais’s own words, Embodied
Wisdom clearly explains the basic principles underpinning his
techniques, Awareness Through Movement (ATM) and Functional
Integration (FI). These thoughtful articles and lively, sometimes
humorous interviews explore a diverse range of subjects: the
importance of bodily expression, the primacy of hearing, the mind-body
connection, martial arts, sleep and consciousness, movement and its
effect on the mind. Embodied Wisdom gives readers the opportunity to
deepen their understanding of the scientific and spiritual principles
behind the Method and offers sound strategies for incorporating it
into their lives.
