Free class of Intelligent Movement® + Healing your back (a 5-session series)
Intelligent Movement® is a method that works with small actions and directed attention. We use movement as a vehicle to develop awareness of how we do the thing we do, how we react emotionally, how our thoughts are activated. And in the process, we find relaxation, well-being, improved posture, and peace for the body and the mind. I want to share with you the recording of a free class in audio and a short video class to practice these movements anytime you want.
Please remember to follow these guidelines:
- Do small movements, don’t go to the limit of your possibilities.
- Stay within the range of your comfort. If something hurts, stop the movement and just imagine it.
- Keep it slow. To really see what you are doing, you need to reduce the speed.
- The number of repetitions is not important. What matter is the quality of your attention.
Enjoy!
I want to offer you also a short video class that you can do sitting on a chair. It will help you practice the movements that we did on the floor, but in a shorter time. The shoulders and the neck are parts of the body where we carry a lot of tensions, so this is a simple and effective strategy to relax them and to relieve the stress.

Starting this Thursday, June 11th, I will offer a series of 5 clases dedicated to the health of the spine.
