Deepening your self awareness would mean that you will live and move through the world more mindfully.

You can deepen your awareness through all your actions that is to sense, feel, think, and move. This infographics created by my wife, also a fellow Feldenkrais practitioner, represents that relationship simply. Please feel free to print this out and use it as your mindful movement reminder! This principle is integrated in all my Feldenkrais movement classes. We practice how to pay attention to these 4 elements as we move and observe changes. It is very fascinating to realize how all these elements are intertwined and “move” and shift simultaneously, which deepens awareness.

Join my online Feldenkrais mindful movement class (Tuesdays 7:00pm-8:00pm PST) to deepen awareness through movement and find a new relationship with your body and mind.
