Awareness Through Movement by Moshe Feldenkrais - the preface, pt. 1

Описание: The Feldenkrais Method can be legitimately thought of as a wisdom practice in addition to its well-recognized value as a movement practice. In an effort to help promote this broader understanding of its value, I am reading aloud from Moshe Feldenkrais' most accessible book, "Awareness Through Movement", originally published in 1972.

I encourage you to buy a copy of the book and read along. I will also be posting commentary videos to match the readings from the text.

In this video, I read the first half of the book’s preface.
