Fabulous lesson. Relaxing yet challenging at the same time!
🙏😊
Thank you Marek for this excellent lesson about knees & how to observe their connection to the other parts of the body. Really clear & helpful!!!
1:54
Very valuable information Thank you 🙏
Top! Il en a encore sous le bonnet?
❤❤❤❤
I want to grow up to be like you!
Wonderful You are lifs savior Thank you 🙏
Thanks. Very useful idea that if you're struggling with one component to use another. Will give it a try
loving these! thank u
How to resolve the rib cage if it is the root cause? Thanks
😅❤❤❤❤😅
All 206??? There are definitely bones that are not supporting you - ear bones, jaw, hyoid, etc
Hello Drew, you are right not entire 100% of our skeleton is for support.
Have thinning articular cartilage on my medial side. The idea of ‘ball and socket’, ‘closed chain’, ‘open chain’ help explain why I can do weighted squats without much difficulty but have after-exercise pain when I use the leg raise machine.
I am glad the information made sense.
Great movements!
I am glad they were helpful!
DON'T LOCK YOUR KNEES STANDING !🎉. Love your quick tips!
Yes! Thank you!
Please keep making these easy shorts
Thank you for your suggestion. I will surely work on them.
Books are good for more than just reading and studying!. Thanks.
Totally agree! Ha, ha!
Literally just one follow through of your tutorial helped me uncover my movements much better. I have a bunion on my left foot and I my body has more mobility towards the right. Just sitting down and following the exercises helped me move better towards my left side as well. Thank you so much for this ❤
I am so happy, you have found the video helpful. All my best!
FOR HOW MANY DAYS I SHOULD DO THIS AND HOW MANY TIME DR SIR
When I find something useful, I try to practice a couple of times daily. In terms of the number of repetitions, I do not focus on counting numbers, rather than the experience of movement. Sometimes just 3-4 repetitions, other times up to one minute of movements.
But thats an incomplete discribtion of checking the harmstrings ability to lengthen. I can touch the floor,, but with round back. When lying on the floor and straigtening my legs, my lower back is getting involved , straightening, even pressing towards the floor. Shouldnt one with this exercise put s.th. under the lower back to prevent this? Thanks for any thoughts. Hope its understandable.
Hamstring muscles connect the lower leg (below the knee_ and the seat bones of the pelvis. When they are short, they will not permit the pelvis to tilt forward, causing excessive roundness/flexion of the spine. I would suggest paying attention to when you begin to lift the tailbone and your seat bones and not go any further than that - you will get the benefit of lengthening your hamstrings without overstretching the lumbar region.
@FeldenkraisNYC Thanks for your replie.!
I'm finally free from bad breath and white tongue after having a horrible outbreak and I feel the same way you described in your interview. Listening to you share your experience of improvement gave me the ray of hope I needed to hear. I'm glad there are people like you who simply want to help other people struggling with the same problems. Your words gave me the courage I needed to hear today to know that it is okay. I can still be myself and now enjoy my life like I'm supposed to. I am blessed to have found you, Dr. Emovon, on TH-cam…✊🏿✊🏿
Many thanks !
Thanks!
Have a problem, when i walk i don’t get that bounce. What could be the problem?
Thank you❤
Excelente
I really appreciate your voice, the sound and clarity. I wanted to send something to a friend to see how Feldenkrais is for her. Yours is one of the better youtube videos I have seen.
I realized a few weeks ago that I do the same thing when I sit in my car and toss myself over to the side I just throw my body into this seat.
Good discovery, Steve!
Brilliant! How many repeats should one do Dr.?
I would start with 5-7 movements. Treat them as reminders to unload the compressed stomach. Eventually you will start gravitating towards the better, more upright posture most of the time.
Hello, I have accetabular retroversion and am far more comfortable with my feet turned out. However I also walked on my toes till aged 12, so I have short Achilles as well as bad mechanics. I have no practical idea what normal walking would even be like, just theoretical knowlege that i struggle to apply. I have new insoles to help with the short Achilles and am aware I need to not start in an overly internally rotated position as my room is already terrible. Would you possibly have any advice for me? I believe my major issue in terms of implementation is how I'm supposed to contact the foot and then how I would push off. Currently I pretty much stay in left stace and vault the left leg whereas the right has more of a swing. I land on my mid foot, on the left foot and pretty much just the 5th met head area on my right foot. When landing the calf muscle adjusts tension to control the force from the ground. Pushing off my right leg struggles to align underneath my hip so the knee ends up having to be more flexed, so I can gain increased motion from the knee extension. I then end up pushing across my right foot with most of the actual plantar force then coming from just the big toe of first few. The left leg can get behind the hip slightly, so landing and push off is more normative but very robotic. The most influential and damaging thing appears to be the right foot not sitting flat. Its always in a diagonal position with the ball side being higher. I really struggle with btj contact. Also no internal rotation range on my right femur puts a lot of rotational force into the knee instead. It is as if the right tibia is externally rotated, the femur is in internal rotation but even in this state it's still angled outwards a fair bit.
I am sorry to hear about your struggle. The most important factors for me when working with the clients in a similar situation are: 1. Comfort - it is much more important to find movements that feel good (or better) than finding a "correct" or "proper" gait pattern. 2. Position of the hip that allows for good transmission of force through the hip (ball of the femur sitting centrally in the socket. 3. Variety - ideally frequently placement of the foot, positions and movements of the legs change. Just as length of the steps it might vary and it is quite OK. We do not want a robotic, every step the same, even if you were to have close to ideal pattern. It is very difficult for me to advise without seeing you. Would you be interested in a private session? I do initial assessments and plan of action in person and also through Zoom.
@FeldenkraisNYC i am actually seeing a podiatrist atm. Its taken a while to get there. Im also on the waiting list for tendon lengthening surgery. Apparently, all of my lower limb tendons are tight with high muscle tone. The lack of mobility coming from the ankle seems to be why my walking is so ridgid with little hip rotation, its also causing whole body postural issues, especially in the lower back and lower right leg. I do, however, appreciate the offer and would have taken you up on it if things hadn't actually progressed for me. Thanks
What is the best way to swing my arms while walking and running to prevent depression and anxiety? Thank you
Look for freedom and lightness of movement of the arms. Don't try to over-control or hold them still. Allow the movements of the arms to express ease. Focus on ease. Wishes of good and meaningful practice for you!
Last year, I suffered from terrible bad breath, I used everything possible to clean my mouth like toothpaste 4 times a day, different mouthwashes but still I continued. until I found Dr. Emovon on TH-cam who helped me get rid of my bad breath completely with his herbal medication that I got from him
Beautiful suggestion ❤! 🙏
Thank you! Cheers!
DO YOU EVER RECOMMEND WALKING IN THE SAND? IF YES, SHOULD IT BE BAREFOOT OR WITH SHOES? ❤ THANKS 🙏👍
I think walking barefoot on sand can be a great exercise providing it is pain-free.
WHAT IF YOU HAVE A BUNION, THAT'S GREATLY DEVIATED LATERALLY? MY BIG TOE CAN'T PUSH OFF!😢😢 I don't want surgery because IT doesn't hurt at all. The top of my foot hurts and MRI shows navicular bone has collapsed. What do you suggest, please? Thanks!🎉❤
Bunions are quite common. There is a group of Feldenkrais lessons called "Separating the toes", "Interlacing toes" or "Foot and its toes" that deal with creating spacing between the toes. It might be very useful for you.
Also all the exercises for doming the foot can be of help in recreating a normal arch of the foot.
SO cute! LOVE the shoes!!!❤️
Ha, ha.
Its A little confusing when you diagram with markers.... I'm very seriously trying to find out if having a quite deviated big toe, from a Halax Valgus (bunion) can sabotage the way I walk. It's on 1 foot. That foot feels like it's collapsing! I'm working on my glutes for strengthening but my feet/foot hurts and it makes walking difficult. What FOOT EXERCISES do you recommend for strengthening the feet? Especially when you have a bunion and don't want surgery????❤❤ Thanks
Doming exercises for improving the arch of the foot can be helpful. You may want to consider the course: Fabulous Feet & Ankles (link here online.feldenkraisnyc.com/offers/YYXU3g6s/checkout) or a private, one-on-one zoom or in person sessions to design a program to help you with your halux valgus.
good, informative
Glad you think so!
Fantastic .. .thanks so much! I like how you explain and your disposition
Thanks a million! I am happy you found the video useful.
Good talk on multiple levels. Thank you!
My pleasure!
Definitely, reduced my facial tension and increased the ease of movement in my head. Thank you!
Wonderful! I am glad it helped.
Thankyou so much. Not sexy ,so what. Just noticing with curiosity = Awareness is a wonderful. Your ad-lib bit at the end says it all. Your explanations are light,easy and there’s a fun element at play too. 🙏
Than you, Liz for your comments. We are committed to learning, self-education and we love working with people who are curious.
This short lesson was Quick and Easy to learn......and So Effective in improving my posture -- that I plan to send it to several of my friends to try. Thank you, Marek!
Glad it was helpful, Cheryl! Thank you for bringing your friends to this work. Onwards and upwards.
I really enjoyed this session! thank you!
So glad, Maria!
Don't rush the process... 😅, it's not my strongest skill but I'm learning! Useful at all times, many things that make me feel not so good... I am discovering that could associate it with not respecting the times of my processes! Thanks You
So true! Thank you for your comment, Maria. Patience is a skill that CAN be learned. All our best on your path!
Thank you! so interesting, so are you saying the learning that sticks and happens slowly is taking place in the unconscious part of the brain?
Thank you, Dar for the great question. Three points here: 1. Hippocampus is the structure deep within the brain that is engaged in memory consolidation, by basically replaying the learning experience. This happens right after the learning is completed and the second time when we sleep. 2. There is a difference between learning to recite a poem, learning theory or mathematical equations and learning to ride a bicycle or acquire a new movement pattern. 3. What I really wanted to say that when it comes to learning of movement and posture we should not focus only on the volitional and cognitive processes (upper brain, cortex). Example of that would be a person who tries to correct gait or posture by hold themselves in a certain way. What we really want is for the posture and movement to be controlled by the lower centers of the nervous system that do not require volition and are super efficient. I hope this helps. Thank you for your engagement in learning. It is super rewarding to work with curious people.
