Moshe Feldenkrais (1904-1984), the founder of the Feldenkrais Method®, built his Method around the concept of improving human functioning by increasing self-awareness through movement. The concept of neuroplasticity - the brain''s amazing capacity to change and adapt - was one of Feldenkrais'' basic tenets of how the brain organizes movement, and is now in our daily lexicon. Pain, illness and injuries all affect how our nervous system and brain react to events in us and around us. Feldenkrais'' thesis is that our nervous system always does the best it can with the information it has, and learning through the nervous system is the theme that runs through this book.
