I’d come up with some techniques to help a client get back to walking properly after tearing her achilles tendon, that was about moving her body / walking incredibly slowly and in her mind first. Then Sue McKibbon introduced me to Feldenkrais where I learned that 40 % of a muscle is activated when we just THINK a movement and we can perfect that movement without pain, just by thinking the movement – BEFORE actually doing the movement itself.
The healing in Moshe Feldenkrais’s work is simply gorgeous. Kim had pulled some resources together for you.

David and Raz are both extremely talented Feldenkrais practitioners. Benefits can be gained from any of their lessons.
When I did the lesson while I was standing with Harmony, I was doing small pieces of the lesson I had done that morning. The real lesson was done in lying, but I did it in standing.
