The Potent Self. From Habit to Freedom of Action: Transformation through Bodily Awareness

Moshe Feldenkrais believed that all of us possess extraordinary abilities. All we need to unlock our full potential is the right method and a bit of practice. According to Feldenkrais, the most important, key factor in this is movement. We can learn a great deal about ourselves and the process of change if we pay attention to the sensations of our muscles and joints, gravity and balance, as well as to how we approach the performance of particular tasks, and bring such awareness into all areas of our activity. This book will enable everyone to assess their strengths and weaknesses in physical development, link them to health, and work through incorrect behavior patterns, bringing awareness into them.
