Author: Feldenkrais, Moshe

In this seminal work, written 50 years ago, the founder of the Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education delves deeply into the relationship between faulty posture, pain, and the underlying emotional mechanisms that lead to compulsive and dependent human behavior. His vision of achieving physical and mental wellness by developing authentic maturity is central. This new edition includes an extensive Foreword by Mark Reese, his longtime student, placing his ideas in the context of his life and times.
