Good book about CP and the Feldenkrais Method

I just finished reading 'Ways out of Cerebral Palsy During Infancy and Early Childhood' by Paul Doron Doroftei. He gives a good description of what it feels like to be inside his body and what his experience was when he got lessons from Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais.

Anat Baniel Method for Children

The Anat Baniel Method helps children and adults move beyond limits and into the world of possibilities. Through learning to connect to ourselves in meaningful ways one can realize their potential.

Anat Baniel Method was developed out of the Feldenkrais Method.  After Dr. Feldenkrais's death in 1984, Anat Baniel continued to develop the work into what is now called the Anat Baniel Method.

To learn more read Anat Baniel's books 'Kids Beyond Limits' and 'Move into Life'.

Feldenkrais and Back Pain

Here is a link to video Fariya Doctor posted. She is a Feldenkrais practitioner in Ontario. It is a great explanation of how the Feldenkrais Method can help someone with back pain.

Parasitic movement

Moshe Feldenkrais coined the word ‘parasitic movement’ to describe movement that a person does that interferes with our intended movement or function. We all do parasitic movements all the time and we are not aware that we are doing them.  If we were aware of them we wouldn’t do them because they create resistance, excess effort and in most cases pain. 

When we gradually peel away these parasitic movements by bringing awareness to them,  our actions become easier, more elegant and we can perform at a much higher level of achievement.  If that sounds appealing, it should. Who doesn’t want to reclaim our youthful easy movement and find all the possibility that lies in expanded awareness.  It is there for everyone; underneath all our habitual parasitic actions!

National Feldenkrais Week

May 4-10 is National Feldenkrais week and all across the world people are teaching one of his movement lessons called 'On back twisting spine with head fixed'.  This recording was done by Sandra Bradshaw who is a Feldenkrais Practitioner in Kelowna, BC, Canada.  Give yourself a treat and do this lesson.  You need 20 minutes and a quiet place on the floor where you can lie down and listen to this recording and then follow along with the instructions of the lesson.
