Monday night – Feldenkrais

I am intentionally trying to slow down a bit this week after the last 4 hectic weeks of work prep. What better way to start the week than by lying down and getting your back rubbed ?    Diane had arranged for her friend Uwe to come over and do a private Feldenkrais class for us.   It was pretty amazing… For those who don’t know.. 

The Feldenkrais Method  (according to Wikipedia) is somatic educational system designed by Moshé Feldenkrais

(1904-1984).

The Feldenkrais method is designed to improve movement

repertoire, aiming to expand and refine the use of the self through

awareness, in order to reduce pain or limitations in movement, and

promote general well-being.

Well. I don’t know about general well being.. but it did feel good.. and for several hours it stopped the pain I always have i my back. In fact.. the last time my back felt this good was when I was sleeping on pallets and cardboard at the Colony.  

I don’t think of myself as someone in constant pain, until it stops……

OK.. enough of that.. I’m going to go sleep on my wonderful back..

nite all, nite sam !
