This series is about the intrinsic pleasure of harmonizing with your own self, and the calm it brings. 

When people remark, at the end of a Feldenkrais lesson, that they feel so calm, it is probably because the internal noise--the interoceptive jangle--has largely resolved itself. I don't mean this in a meditative way. It isn't that the internal messages stop whizzing around from system to system or data stream to data stream. It is--I hypothesize--that the internal signals are better reconciled. Their timing becomes coordinated. The skips and stutters come unwrinkled. Internal communications aren't trying to shout over the din. And this isn't just a nervous system refresher: immune, cardio and endocrine are all part of this now-more-integrated dance: safe and nourishing and full of potential.

The real confirmation of this 'internal harmonizing' idea is how you feel at the end of the movement lesson. But if you crave validation from current research on attention, prediction and consciousness, this series has materials for you! 

Together, we'll explore how the act of awareness in movement-the drawing of attention, supports the calm. In Feldenkrais, paying attention is the harmonizer, the reset and the loosener-of-habits. It is the release of inner clangor. And the sheer pleasure. (And if you just want to feel that for yourself in the movement and leave the latest in neuroscience to the side, that's great! The proof is in how you feel, after all.)

Sign up for this series and you'll have access to the science-y entries exploring 'calm' as well as movement lessons to thrum your inner tuning fork.
