Body Awareness as Healing Therapy by Moshe Feldenkrais
Body Awareness as Healing Therapy: The Case of Nora is Moshe Feldenkrais' classic study of his work with Nora, a woman who has suffered a severe stroke and lost her neuromuscular coordination, including the ability to read and write. Feldenkrais uses rational and intuitive approaches to help his student relearn basic motor skills. One can observe here the groundwork of Feldenkrais' extraordinary insights which became known as the Feldenkrais Method. We follow his detailed descriptions of the trial and error process which led him to see the ingredients that were needed to help Nora reshape her attention, perception, imagination and cognition.Moshe Feldenkrais (1904-1984), the founder of the Awareness-Through-Movement method for improved health and sensory awareness, is also the author of The Body and Mature Conduct and The Elusive Obvious, among other books.
