Counting Out Seconds

Feldenkrais Lesson with Scott Clark

The Feldenkrais Method enables us to explore a huge range of human behaviour, from aspects of anatomy and movement to more abstract issues like attention. Indeed, attention is the primary tool by which the Method works; in that, it is somewhat similar to meditation.

Here is a story from the Buddhist tradition that may be useful: a musician asked the Buddha to explain meditation. The Buddha said “You are a lute player; meditation is like tuning the lute. Your attention must not be too tight, nor must it be too loose!”

This lesson explores exactly that - a way to tune your attention. It’s done while sitting, so find a chair or stool with a more or less flat, level seat, and sit with your feet in good contact with the floor. I hope you find the lesson enjoyable & useful!
