Dharma Sunday (7/27) - Relaxed & Awake: The Feldenkrais Method and Somatic Meditation (Online)
With Dan Clurman
July 27, 2025
Live Online!
12:00-2:00 pm ET
This morning combines body-oriented meditation practice with a Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® lesson, the brilliant sensory-motor approach to gently and wisely re-educating the neuro-muscular system. Alternating meditation, a Feldenkrais movement lesson and discussion will allow the techniques to complement and empower each other and to enhance mind-body connections and general well-being.
Many new and long-time meditators discover that Feldenkrais practices can help them feel greater physical ease and less pain, both in meditation and in everyday activities, by freeing up habitual patterns embedded in the neuromuscular system. This can also help incorporate the body’s natural intelligence into the process of spiritual inquiry and more fully embodied presence.
Participants will need a place to lie down and a chair to sit on. A resource handout will also be available for participants.
