by : Moshé Feldenkrais, Moshe Feldenkrais
Summary:
Thousands have found renewed health and increased sensory awareness through the Feldenkrais method as explained in Awareness Through Movement. Here is a way for people of every age to integrate physical and mental development into a new, invigorating wholeness. Feldenkrais provides a modern-day, practical program for the perennial ideal of a healthy mind in a healthy body. His down-to-earth method carefully avoids any mystical component and never obliges any pupil to master abstruse theories. Exercises for posture, eyes, imagination, and more will simultaneously build better body habits and focus new dimensions of awareness, self-image, and human potential.
The Feldenkrais Method was originated by Moshé Feldenkrais, D.Sc., a pioneer in movement science and the innovator of therapeutic and educational approaches. Feldenkrais was born in Russia in 1904 and emigrated to Palestine at the age of 14. As a young man he was an excellent athlete and self-taught in jujitsu. While attending night school preparing to study physics he was a surveyor and tutored problem students. He had an early interest in hypnosis and translated Emile Coué's book on autosuggestion into Hebrew....
The Feldenkrais Method consists of two basic techniques, Awareness Through Movement and Functional Integration. Together they comprise a system of neuromuscular re-education that can dramatically improve individual functioning by increasing self-awareness and facilitating new patterns of thinking, moving, and feeling.
