Novelty is one of the ways Feldenkrais separates its self from the rest, and this lesson is a classic example for how.

Moshe addressed the WHOLE self, by exploring ways for people to connect with all the parts of the body, many of which are often ignored. The internals, he woke his students and clients up to meet the insides of.. the torso, prompting people to think about the parts of the vertebrae that touch our organs, rather than only the bits that poke out of the back…. the connectivity between the eyeballs through to the toes (through fascia)… and with this lesson, the mouth, lips, tongue, uvula, nose cavities… that huge trampoline in our torso’s - the diaphragm, and that which separates us from death - the breath.

Thought provoking questions he raises during this lesson: “What is the biggest difference that you feel between these ways of talking? What do you do differently with your lips when you do not move your teeth? You have to exaggerate the movement of your lips to speak clearly. Many people talk without moving their lips and have unclear diction. Considering this is one of the main ways we communicate, it’s one of the most important things to learn”

Substack’s AI shows this from “breathing, lungs, sound, sinuses”

Anybody suffering from sinus issues - this lesson is a must… also for singers, vocalists, public speakers, people interested in voice quality for whatever reason.
