An educational system of neuromuscular re-education known for its gentle approach, the Feldenkrais Method has been shown to dramatically improve individual functioning by increasing self-awareness and facilitating new patterns of thinking, moving, and feeling. Intended for those who need to improve their movement repertoire for professional reasons–dancers, musicians, martial artists, gymnasts, and athletes–as well as those wishing to reduce pain or limitations in movement, Feldenkrais is based on the idea that learning to move better can improve anyone's overall health on many levels--David Zemach-Bersin. 

 

Wonderfully safe and effective, this is my favorite set of tapes for people in pain.

A fabulous introduction to the basics of the Feldenkrais Method by Elizabeth Beringer and David Zemach-Bersin, two of the foremost Feldenkrais teachers.

Each 30-45 minute lesson covers a different theme and will pleasurably take you towards greater ease of movement and well-being. Explanations of the theory and practice of the Feldenkrais Method are interwoven throughout the series making it the most accessible introduction available.

Awareness Heals
by: Steven Shafarman Paperback, 216 pages

One of my favorite Feldenkrais Method books! Awareness Heals is the first book to present the full benefits of the Feldenkrais Method in clear language. It details six basic lessons which help you to become more aware of how you breathe, sit, walk, and otherwise move. By sensing these natural actions, you grow more skillful and supple in all your movements. Through the Feldenkrais Method, you can learn to relieve pain, enhance flexibility, and recover from physical or emotional stress.The gentle movements in Awareness Heals are designed for practice at home and work, and even in your car. They fit into any program of fitness, exercise, or therapy. Most important, Feldenkrais lessons demonstrate that such problems as stiffness and stress do not require outside intervention—the remedy lies within each of us.
