Upcoming Workshops
Fibromyalgia Awareness Day
When movements are painful, they are remembered in the brain as “not a good feeling” and are avoided as much as possible. Every time the pain response gets triggered, the body tightens and braces itself for that pain. When movements do not trigger pain, they are remembered as a “good feeling” and are happily performed again and again.
Somatics exercises can start with thought exercises, as just thinking about what needs to happen to create that small movement creates a feeling for that movement. This helps to create a safe environment towards the movement. This class will start moving very slowly and within range of motion re-learning kinesiological movement patterns. Wear clothing which allows movement. Jeans, skirts and shorts are not advised for the Somatics classes. |
If even a thought of movement is painful to you, Somatics is a good place to start thinking about moving.
