Here is a simple exercise with that can give big somatic and cognitive payoffs.
Today, try using your non-dominant hand more often is everything you do. Every time you do this, you bring your entire body into a non-habitual posture. Just this small act has enormous consequences — being in a new posture relieves pain, changes your balance orientation, creates new skeletal connections, reorganizes the experience of your nervous system and jolts your brain a bit in the direction of self awareness and being more awake. This is the essence of Feldenkrais.
I teach Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement classes in Reno, NV every Tues. at 12:30 pm at the Gerber Medical Clinic, 1225 Westfield Ave., Thurs. at 5 pm at the Reno Buddhist Center at 820 Plumas, and Saturday at 10 am at Gerber Medical.
