Exploring the ‘Myth of Aging Series’ (In the tradition
of Thomas Hanna)
Somatics is a gentle, easy and effective way to help you manage chronic
and acute pain. Other benefits include more ease in the body, better
posture and deep relaxation.
You will also learn a daily practice in order to maintain better flexibility,
coordination, wellness, and balance resulting in a decrease of the aches
and pains commonly attributed to stress, injury and aging.
Open to all
Anyone can benefit from less stress and more ease in the body.
Description of workshop
Neuromuscular re-education (mind-body training) in the tradition of
Thomas Hanna. Somatics is a system of slow mindful movements. It is
a gentle, easy and effective way to help you manage chronic and acute
pain. Other benefits include more ease in the body, better posture and
deep relaxation. It teaches you to recognize, release and reverse chronic
pain patterns resulting from injury, stress, or habituated postures.
We will begin with a short introduction - what Somatics is, why it's
unique and how it works, and then experience a variety of fun, easy
and gentle movements designed to help you create a deeper sense of awareness
as to the places where you hold tension in your body.
At the end of the session there will be time for questions and a review
of specific movements which can be practiced at home.
Handouts of the home practice will be given.
