RE: The Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education: An Introduction

in #academia8 years ago

"…the Feldenkrais Method primarily focuses on learning and awareness. The principles of the method explore the mind-body connection…"

^^^This is my favorite component of the Feldenkrais Method based on my brief experience with it. An it's something that so many people need today. Many have become disconnected from their bodies, and their physical self-awareness has become compromised.

Great introduction! Well done!

Thanks so much! For me, the method has really become a way of looking at life. Its not just about moving easer, but functioning easier in the world, both mind and body. And I have been doing a lot of internal integration of the Feldenkrais Method and my studies in depth psychology. They really say many of the same things, but Feldenkrais mostly approaches through the body, and depth psychology approaches from the mind (including the realm of the unconscious).

Where have you experienced Feldenkrais before? I'm always curious to know all the various places the method pops up. :)
