Asheville Movement Center Director Lavinia Plonka: LESSON OF THE MONTH

Lesson of the Month

Each month we will explore a somatic approach toward improving the quality of life. I believe that since body and mind are intimately connected, when you learn more about how you function physically, you discover insights about your psychological self as well. Therefore, sometimes these lessons will offer ways to think about the movements from a mental and emotional as well as physical point of view.

This Month's Lesson	Past Lessons
Take a Walk A mini-lesson designed to put your feet where they need to go.	A Longer Spine You can’t just “command” your skeleton back into balance. But you can learn new, more effective habits that help balance the intricate relationship between stability and mobility. Feldenkrais lessons become like an inner dance, where awareness leads and all the other parts are delighted to follow.
	A Trip Around the Sit Bones Discover simple strategies to improve your posture and make sitting more comfortable. It will increase your productivity and reduce spinal stress.
	Relax the Hand This simple exercise not only reduces discomfort in the hand, it will relax your shoulders and can even relieve symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.
	Eyes Eyestrain and neck tension are both results of sitting too long in front of a computer. Try this short exercise to relax your eyes. You’ll be amazed at the improvement!
