    Why does Feldenkrais feel so peaceful?

    Why does a Feldenkrais lesson so often leave us feeling peaceful? Feldenkrais practitioner Chava Sorani suggests the answer may be more than relaxation.

The first episode of a series of short reflections on what changes in us when we move with attention.
