Personal Renewal
Personal Renewal
When you are thinking about something, notice there is an internal bodily sensation that is related to your mind. You have the ability to direct your attention, an awareness to organize all of you for improvement. If you take the time to learn, you can slow your mind down, you can begin to notice that any portion of you can initiate a subtle movement as long as you listen gently. How that movement, whether initiated from you fingers, hands, toes or feet, or deeper into your core, your pelvis or chest, enables an improved organization. You have sensory organs in your head, known as your teleceptors: eyes, ears, nose, mouth as well as your tongue and fingers… just like any infant, or even an animal, notice what changes when you’re thinking.
Like studying anything new, with the Feldenkrais Method® it takes time and practice to recognize how incremental movements can have a reflection on your whole body. Welcome an awakening that this process will begin to inform you, how to renew yourself when you first think of a physical improvement, it will also enhance your mental and emotional states.
No matter how closely we look, it is difficult to find a mental act that can take place without the support of some physical function. – Moshe Feldenkrais
My hope for you in this New Year of 2024 is a deepening appreciation of your listening, so you can find your way to personally renew your life. It’s your pathway forward. Focus on what you want, what you need and notice that where your attention goes, you will follow. Please follow me in this process, try my Awareness Through Movement (ATM)® weekly lessons, up to 4 any week of the year with audio files to download for your own personal renewal. Then tap into private sessions. You might live near my studio or schedule a virtual session to enable you to reap the benefits of finding new possibilities where something improves your older patterns. Find how you can respond differently in a positive way. Realize now, with a finer sensing of yourself, you too can follow this pathway of the Feldenkraisian way of listening. Begin to awaken to how your whole self is participating in anything you do and you’ll for sure notice how much quicker your personal renewal awakens deep within you.
“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.” – W.B. Yeats
