Dear Friend,
Welcome to Feldenkrais Method® Guide’s newsletter!
As a thank you for subscribing you will receive 5 free Feldenkrais lessons including several audio lessons that will help you learn to sit more comfortably.
Since so many of us spend a great deal of time sitting throughout the day – at computers, with friends and families at meals, at the movies or watching TV – learning to sit with greater comfort and ease can provide significant physical benefits over time.
These brief audio lessons (less than 10 minutes each) are easy to do and can help you learn to sit – and move about while sitting – with greater comfort, ease and efficiency.
As with all Feldenkrais lessons, here are a few guidelines to follow before doing the lesson.
- Move slowly and mindfully so that you can feel each aspect of how you move.
- Don’t stretch, strain or try to break through your limits. Use less effort than you need as you move. You’ll actually improve more quickly as you reduce your effort. “Less is more” in this approach.
- Breathe as you move. Breathing naturally enhances your relaxation.
- Rest whenever you wish, even during directions. Rest helps you integrate improvements.
- Pay careful attention to your comfort.. Never do anything that’s painful. If you do experience any pain, decrease the size and range of movement until the pain disappears. If you can’t eliminate pain, just imagine doing the movement. Experience has shown that you will still receive benefits when using your imagination.
- Each time you repeat a lesson you can learn something new and gain additional improvements. Feel free to repeat any part of the lesson and experiment with the movements throughout your day.
- Don’t do these lessons while driving your car or doing anything else that requires your full attention. Only focus on the lesson at the time you do it.
