I am amazed at how much that helped me. I'm struggling with a very sensitized nervous system, following years of psychiatric drug tapering and withdrawal. The benzo taper was especially horrific and I get these horrible days still, where I'm burning and in pain and crying and freaking out, even wanting to kill myself. Today has been off the charts bad. I just did this video and it calmed me right down, at least for the moment. I'm calmer and cooler and much more regulated. Thank you so much. 💞
This is so wonderful to hear, thank you so much for sharing. I am glad you find the lesson helpful. You can repeat the lesson whenever you feel the need, and try the rest of the lessons in this series too! Wishing you all the best.
I’m so glad that I found this video just as I’m having insomnia problem, this has been very helpful to me, I can’t thank you enough for sharing & teaching this video to the public. Your caring & knowledge is greatly appreciated !
Awesome, Michelle! So glad you are finding benefit from this lesson. I hope you have found the other lessons in the Soothe & Calm series... www.feldenkraisaccess.com/offers/W8Tixnng/checkout
There was a lightbulb moment for me towards the end of this class where I understood that my eyes look towards the open hand. Will be doing this exercise a few more times. Very powerful. Thank you.
Since my previous comment I've cracked a couple of ribs! It's painful and distressing, but my thought was that if only I knew how to apply it Feldenkrais would help. I did the lesson rotating hands today, really more to make myself feel calm about the situation, and to my surprise I have less pain after completing the lesson. Feldenkrais really is extraordinary!❤

I have been doing these exercises the last week or so and they have been great for my nervous system which has become dysregulated by long covid. However, just a couple days ago I developed a lot of muscle soreness in my neck. I’m wondering if it may be from the exercises. I’ve been trying to do them extremely gently so wanted to hear if this is a possibility. I’ve done the various exercises from 1-3 times a day. It also may be from seething unrelated as I do get some unexplainable aches and pains!
I'd suggest doing even smaller movements than you are already doing, and maybe even doing some of the movements in your imagination to see if that diminishes any soreness in your neck. Let us know how it goes.
Wonderfully soothing to the system…thank you 🙏 I hadn’t heard you say about doing it when having trouble sleeping but found myself, unable to get back off to sleep, the other night doing this gentle movement 😴😴😴😴
when i did it i waas tremling,felt soo agitated and like my body wanted to move so bad and i was feeling a big need to release this icing sensation.It was good tho.Felt better after

Another one that's so relaxing that I find it really hard to stay awake to the end!
Wonderful! No need to try to stay awake, if fact, if it's helpful, you can do this in bed to fall asleep at night. Enjoy!
Beautiful class, thank you!
