Awareness Through Movement

The book of a unique psychotherapist serves as a practical guide to achieving a healthier and more fulfilling life. Feldenkrais's approach is based on a precise understanding of the functioning of the human nervous system. His work anticipated many ideas... in neurology and medicine that have since become widely accepted, such as the asymmetry of the brain hemispheres and the non-duality of body and psyche.

 
Any representative of 'helping' professions – physiotherapist, speech therapist, occupational therapy specialist, psychologist, doctor, and nurse – will find in this book a unique perspective that they can use to improve their work. The Feldenkrais method is not essentially 'therapy', but rather promotes learning that involves both the brain and the person as a whole. Thus, the method is crucial for education in any field that involves learning and skill formation, for example, in music, dance, and sports.

For professionals in psychotherapeuic practice and psychological counseling, as well as for anyone interested in philosophy and psychology.
