By paying close attention to the body’s signals, individuals can learn to identify and correct dysfunctional movement patterns or tensions that may be contributing to pain or reduced function. This mindful engagement helps bridge the gap between mental intention and physical action, leading to more coordinated and efficient movement, and improved emotional awareness. #awarenessthroughmovement #somaticmovement #somaticexercises #somatonin

"Be sure your intention is clearly present in your movement. The movement organizes itself when your intention is clear." - Moshè Feldenkrais

Experimenting with #AwarenessThroughMovement sessions for an elderly person with #Dementia.

They're doing the session below which is conducted by #LynetteReid, a Canadian bioethicist.

Lynette's descriptions are amongst the best I've found after searching widely. Usually not confounding.

The #Feldenkrais hashtag has a link to #LearnToLearn, Moshe's own suggestions on how to optimise an Awareness Through Movement session.

All looking OK as I go by doing housework.

I use exercise / physical work to regulate my psychology.

I have concerns about getting to where that no longer is readily available as I age or have a accident/disease.

Some proportion, of the psych regulation I can get from doing #Feldenkrais #AwarenessThroughMovement ( a #PseudoScience, #AlternativeMedicine, "Worse than yoga" according to #Wikipedia ). Calmness and smoothness is appreciated but the lack of endorphins allows dysphoria to emerge quicker.

My weekly #Feldenkrais group classes resume on Saturday, January 7th at 8am Pacific. Online via Google Meet. $5, or pay what you can. Schedule and info: https://potentflexibility.com/atm-classes/
